Performance EvaluationA formal performance review of the Board, audit and remuneration committees and their chairmen were performed during the year by a process of self‑assessment. In performing these reviews, criteria that were taken into account included the ability of the Director to: take the perspective of creating shareholder value; to contribute to the development of strategy and identification of risks; to provide clarity of direction to management; to be a source of wise counsel; to bring a broad perspective to discussions and an understanding of key issues; to commit the time required to fulfil the role; and to listen to and respect the ideas of fellow Directors and management.
The Senior Independent Director Ms P Freer is responsible for the performance evaluation of the Chairman, taking into account the views of the Executive Directors.
