Announcement of Board Committee Changes
Pursuant to paragraph 9.6.11R of the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules, the Board of Directors of Millennium & Copthorne Hotels plc is pleased to announce the following changes to its standing Board committees and their membership.
On the recommendation of the Nominations Committee, Christian de Charnacé, an independent Non-Executive Director, is to become a member of the Audit Committee with effect from 23 March 2018.
In addition, the Nominations Committee has reviewed the structure of the Board's committees and the Board has decided to amalgamate the duties of the Risk Committee and Audit Committee given the commonalities of their remits and the establishment within the Group, since the formation of the Risk Committee, of a robust risk management framework. These changes will take effect following the conclusion of the Company's 2018 Annual General Meeting and accordingly the members of the Risk Committee, including Gervase MacGregor, Daniel Desbaillets and Kwek Eik Sheng, will relinquish their respective roles on the Risk Committee as from that date.
