The evaluation for this year was conducted internally and a questionnaire with a set of question was circulated to each Director to obtain their views on the effectiveness of the Board and its sub-committees, to assess their contribution to the Board’s performance and to identify areas of improvement. The results have been analysed by the Corporate Governance and Conduct Review Committee and no major issues were noted. The main opportunities for improvement and refinement related to enhancing Board representation to address diversity and increasing the inclusion of ESG initiatives in board-level decision-making. These results were reported at Board level at the Company’s Board meeting held in December 2024. 3.
