The Board is pleased to note that all resolutions were passed with the requisite majority of votes and welcomes the support of the Company's shareholders.
The Board notes that while Resolution 11 - To receive and adopt the Directors’ Remuneration Policy, had near unanimous support, Resolution 10 - To receive and adopt the Directors’ Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 March 2021, had lower overall support.
The Remuneration Committee gave careful consideration to executive remuneration during 2021 and sought external input including a consultation with larger shareholders, proxy agencies and other stakeholders prior to making its executive director pay proposal and devising the new Remuneration Policy.
It is therefore disappointing that that a minority of shareholders were unable to support this resolution. As the Company values an open and transparent dialogue with shareholders, it will continue to engage with them to ensure their views are understood.
