Beatrice Hollond, chairman, commented: Rain Newton-Smith's appointment continues our succession plan for the Company's longer serving Directors. She brings considerable economic and political insight and, along with our recent appointment of Tom Joy, further strengthens our collective knowledge of ESG and climate change issues.
