On behalf of the Board and all of the Group's employees, I wish him all the best for the future.  I am also delighted that Nancy Cullen is taking over the role of Chief Executive Officer at such an important time for the Group. She has immense knowledge of the business and the commercialisation industry and will be integral to the continued future success of the business."
