                       VODAFONE GROUP EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

Vodafone Group Plc ('Vodafone') announces today that Brian Clark has been
appointed Chief Executive of Vodafone's new Asia Pacific Region with effect from
1 January 2003. The Asia Pacific Region comprises all of Vodafone's interests in
Japan, Australia, New Zealand, China, India and Fiji. Brian Clark will be based
at the Regional Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan. Prior to joining Vodafone in 1997,
Brian Clark was Chief Executive Officer of Telkom (Pty) Ltd in South Africa. He
is currently a member of the Group Executive Committee and Chief Executive of
Vodafone's Pacific Region.

Bill Keever, currently Chief Executive of Vodafone's Asia Region, has decided to
retire and will leave the company in the first half of 2003. He has made a
significant contribution to the growth of the Group, firstly with the successful
merger of AirTouch and more recently the integration and reorganisation of Japan
Telecom and J-Phone.

These changes to the composition of Vodafone's Group Executive Committee will
not alter the Group's segmental analysis of its financial results. All direct
reports for both regions will, from 1 January 2003, report to Brian Clark as
Chief Executive of the Asia Pacific Region.
