Corporate governance
Good corporate governance is essential to the long-term, successful management of our business. The Board is committed to achieving high standards of corporate governance which it considers to be central to the effective management of the business and to maintaining the confidence of investors. Part of that commitment includes good communication around governance, and you will find detailed information on that subject here.
During 2010, the Board considers that it and the Company have complied with the best practice provisions of the Combined Code and on Corporate Governance.
UK Corporate Governance Code
In June 2010, the Fiancial Reporting Council published a new code, the UK Corporate Governance Code, which will replace the Combined Code 2008 for financial years beginning on or after 29 June 2010.
In accordance with a new provision in the Corporate Governance Code, all members of the Board will seek re-election at the next AGM. Although the provision of the Governance Code would not apply to the Company until the financial year ending December 2011, the Board has decided to comply this year.
