During 2009, we sought to improve our interaction with all our key stakeholders. For customers, we have reinforced our measures to prevent under 18s gambling. For our employees, as we are undergoing considerable change in our culture and our management team, we have introduced new measures for effective engagement and have also further improved our security measures for shop staff. For shareholders, we have established a dedicated investor relations resource in-house and are improving our corporate reporting. For the wider community, we have continued to engage with Government and regulators, and sought to minimise further our environmental footprint through recycling measures and adapting our car policy.
