Penny Judd will assume the role of Senior Independent Director.
With effect from the end of the AGM and in accordance with the terms of reference of the Remuneration Committee, Steve Baldwin will step down from his role as Chairman of the Remuneration Committee. Paul Dentskevich will be appointed Chairman of the Remuneration Committee. Steve Baldwin will remain as a member of the Remuneration Committee and the composition of the Nomination and Audit Committees will remain unchanged, save for the departure of Henry Kenner from the Nomination Committee.
Steve Baldwin, Senior Independent Director, commented:
"As a Board we would like to express our gratitude to Henry for his leadership since the inception of TruFin. It was his vision and energy, with James by his side, that created the Group, and each of the Group's individual businesses have benefited greatly from his experience, judgement and counsel since that time. We are pleased to say that he will continue to provide his support as a consultant."
