The Board of the Company, which is responsible for the direction and oversight of its activities, believes that a sound corporate governance policy, involving a transparent set of procedures and practices, is essential to the Company’s success both in the medium and long term.
In accordance with changes to the AIM Rules implemented in September 2018, the Board reviewed which recognised corporate governance code to apply to the Company on a comply or explain basis, as required by AIM Rule 26. As announced on 12 June 2020, the Company has therefore adopted the Quoted Companies Alliance Corporate Governance Code (the “QCA Code”) as its benchmark for governance matters. The application of such principles enables key decisions to be made by the Board as a whole, and for the Company to function in a manner that takes into account all stakeholders in the Company, including employees, suppliers and business partners.
Where the Company’s corporate governance practices follow a recommendation, the Board has made appropriate statements reporting on the adoption of the recommendation. Where, after due consideration, the Company's corporate governance practices depart from a recommendation, the Board has made full disclosure and reasoning for the adoption of its own practice, and the comply or explain basis required by AIM Rule 26.
