Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee was chaired by Ken Harvey and also comprised Martin Angle, Gerard Connell and Dinah Nichols. It meets as and when required to select and recommend to the Board suitable candidates for appointment as Executive and Non-executive Directors, determine the nomination process and review succession plans. It is the practice of the Committee, led by the Chairman, to appoint an external search consultancy to assist in any Board appointments. During the year it met on three occasions to consider the annual performance evaluation results for the Committee, to review succession planning for the Group and to consider an Executive Director’s appointment in an advisory role to an external body. All members were present at each meeting.

More details of the work of the Nomination Committee are set out in the Annual Report.
