We believe that to maximise value and secure our long-term success, we must engage proactively and constructively with our key stakeholders in order to establish a mutual understanding of both the Group’s and stakeholders’ views and objectives.

The primary role of the Remuneration Committee is to determine the framework and broad policy for the remuneration of the Chairman, the executive directors of the Board and the senior management group directly below Board level. The Committee proposes the directors’ remuneration policy for shareholder approval. It also governs the implementation of the policy, ensuring that the remuneration of the executive directors and senior management supports the sustainable performance of the business and that it is aligned with the Company’s shareholders’ interests. The Committee considers market practice, shareholders’ views and the Group’s broader remuneration arrangements when setting the Group’s performance-related incentives and ensures compliance with UK corporate governance good practice.
