Approve Remuneration Report
Vote rationale:
The board is responsible for attracting the right CEO and setting appropriate remuneration. A substantial proportion of annual remuneration should be provided as shares that are locked in for five to ten years, regardless of resignation or retirement. The board should provide transparency on total remuneration to avoid unacceptable outcomes. The board should ensure that all benefits have a clear business rationale. Pensionable income should constitute a minor part of total remuneration.

Re-elect James Clare as Director
Vote rationale:
Board decisions that are particularly vulnerable to conflicts of interest should have additional safeguards. Management should not serve on the audit or remuneration committees. The audit committee should have a majority of independent, shareholder-elected members.
