Resolutions 2 and 3
The Board notes the level of support for resolution 2 (the Director's Remuneration Report). The Remuneration Committee is committed to making responsible and measured decisions around pay. The current remuneration structure was originally implemented in 2021, with strong investor support. No changes to this structure were proposed this year, and we were pleased to once again see approval for renewal of the Director's Remuneration Policy under resolution 3.
Consistent with our approach from prior years, the Remuneration Committee will continue dialogue with major shareholders on our approach to executive pay.
Resolutions 20 to 23 were proposed as special resolutions.
The votes withheld are not a vote in law and are not counted in the overall voting figures.
