Effectiveness of the Board was considered within the context of three key criteria: * Ability to achieve its objectives with regard to company strategy * Ability to work together effectively * Ability to maximise its use of time
There also was some training received by the Board during the year on different topics like health and safety, food safety, merger control, the Bribery Act and the Group’s compliance procedures, etc. This training was also shared across company with management Board to ensure that there is necessary knowledge as well. During the year Directors were attending the following Board and Committee meetings: Remuneration Committee; Audit Committee; Nomination Committee and Remuneration Committee.
