Board meetings during Covid-19 pandemic

Due to the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, and in accordance with Government directions on social distancing, the Board will not hold meetings in public for the time being. We are looking at ways of making meetings accessible to the public as soon as possible.

However, to ensure key decisions are still made and important governance processes maintained, the Board continues to meet but virtually. Minutes and meeting papers continue to be published here.

Questions may continue be submitted by members of the public to the Board. Please send them, along with any other queries or comments, to Sharon Katema, Associate Director of Corporate Governance, by the Monday of the week of the board meeting.
