Environment, Social & Governance committee

In 2019, the Board instigated a formal ESG engagement process, leading to a step change in our commitment to provide greater transparency and performance comparison on our environmental performance. Cognisant of our enhanced reporting responsibilities as part of the FTSE 100, the Group founded its ESG committee to determine ESG-related strategy, corporate risk-assessment and monitoring of ESG performance across the Group’s respective banners and territories. The ESG Committee is responsible for the assessment and publication of our ESG-related principal risks, our environment related investment plans, and the communication of our strategy to colleagues, customers and investors.
