Audit Committee
The Audit Committee was established soon after the Company’s listing on the AIM. Its terms of reference set down the primary role of the Audit Committee as principally being:
- to review the financial statements of the Company;
- to consider the appointment of, relationship with, and independence and objectivity of, the external auditors;
- to review the financial reporting and internal control procedures;
- to oversee the Group’s relationship with its external auditors.
The Audit Committee, which comprise Massimo Carello, Timothy Hanford and Mark Corra as Chairman, meets twice a year and is responsible for making recommendations to the Board on the appointment of auditors and the audit fee and for ensuring that the financial performance of the Company is properly monitored and reported on, and receives and reviews reports from management and the auditors relating to the interim report, the annual report and accounts and the internal control systems of the Company.
