Annual Report
The Corporate Governance Statement contained within the Company's
annual report for the period ended 31 December 2011 reported that the
Company did not presently have a diversity policy. The Company did
however state in the Corporate Governance Statement as follows:"The Group
employs a broad mix of individuals reflecting its philosophy
of hiring the best candidate for all positions at all levels
irrespective of race, religion or gender. In terms of the composition
of the Board and Board nominations, the Remuneration and Nomination
Committee regularly reviews the composition of the Board and will
consider the requirements of the Davies Report and the Australian Stock
Exchange Principles as part of the process of determining the
composition of the Board that is the most appropriate for the group"
A Diversity Policy had not been formalized during the year as the
Company was still in the process of reviewing and ensuring that various
stakeholder groups across all jurisdictions, namely Papua New Guinea,
the Solomon Islands, Australia, The United Kingdom and Canada are
considered in preparing such a policy. Whilst a formal policy was not
in place, the Company operated in accordance with the philosophy stated
above and in the Corporate Governance Statement.
