5. We engage fully with shareholders and other stakeholders on
matters of executive remuneration. Management is paid for
performance with outcomes assessed against internal targets, peer
group performance and external macro-economic measures, assuring
the Remuneration Committee that the outcomes of the plans were
appropriate for the performance delivered over the period. This
approach is consistent with our commitment to align executive
remuneration with stakeholder interests.
