Following a review by the Board at a meeting held on 2 July 2026, the Company confirms that Martin Adams, Nikiforos Charagkionis and Oliver Corlette are considered independent in character and judgement. Having taken into account all relevant factors, the Board has determined that there are no relationships or circumstances which are likely to affect, or could appear to affect, their judgement and ability to act independently in the best interests of the Company and its stakeholders.
The Board also reviewed the independence of Sean Hurst and has concluded that he remains independent in character and judgement and continues to be free from any relationship or circumstance which could materially interfere with, or could reasonably be perceived to interfere with, the exercise of his independent judgement.
The Board therefore considers each of Martin Adams, Nikiforos Charagkionis and Oliver Corlette to be an Independent Non-Executive Director, alongside Sean Hurst who the Board considers remains to be independent for the purposes of the QCA Corporate Governance Code.
