Summary

P303 seeks to amend the BSCCo Board Director provisions in BSC Section C with the aim of increasing the pool of potential candidates that may fill a BSCCo Board Director position. To achieve this, P303 proposes to remove the requirement of a five year gap in the definition of a non-industry Director and replacing with an obligation on the Nomination Committee to consider independence as part of the appointment process. It also seeks to remove the current restriction that only non-industry Directors are eligible to be rewarded remuneration.
