Principle 8: Encourage Enhanced Performance

"Fairly review and actively encourage enhanced board and management effectiveness"

Recommendation 8.1: Disclose the process for performance evaluation of the board, its committees and individual directors, and key executives.

The Company has adopted self-evaluation processes to measure Board performance. The performance of all directors is assessed through analysis, review and specific discussion by the Board of issues relating to individual directors' attendance at and involvement in Board meetings, interaction with management, performance of allocated tasks and any other matters identified by the Board or other directors. Any significant issues identified are actioned by the Board on an ongoing basis. Evaluation of the Board's Committees is conducted on a similar basis. Due to the Board's assessment of the effectiveness of these processes, the Board has not formalised qualitative performance indicators to measure director's performance.

The evaluation of key executives is carried out by the Board via ongoing monitoring of management performance, based on management's reporting, interaction and involvement with and to the Board and Company performance, and the functioning of the Company's Remuneration Committee and its reporting processes.
