    RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT VOTING AND ENGAGEMENT QUARTER 4, 2020 RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT AT QUILTER CHEVIOT INTRODUCTION This is our quarter four 2020 report outlining Quilter Cheviot’s engagement and voting activity with the companies we invest in. Our client base is a mix of private client portfolios, small pension funds, trusts and charities; as a result we have a long tail of small holdings which represent legacy and cherished positions. It would be impractical to vote on all our equity and investment trust positions and therefore we have chosen to focus on our largest and most widely held positions where we can have the most influence. Given the nature of our predominantly UK client base, these are UK-listed equities and investment trusts. From the beginning of 2020 we expanded the voting universe to include companies listed in the UK where we own more than 0.2% or £2 million on behalf of discretionary clients. This means that our voting universe has more than doubled. Where clients wish to vote their holdings in a specific way we do so on a reasonable endeavours basis; this applies whether the investment is in the core universe or not, and also to overseas holdings. We ensured that six clients were able to instruct their votes over the last quarter. We use the ISS proxy voting service in order to inform our decision making, however we will not automatically implement its recommendations. When we meet a company to discuss governance issues the research analyst does so alongside the responsible investment team as we are committed to ensuring that responsible investment operates within our investment process rather than apart from it.

    THE SMITHFIELD GAZETTE EDITION 161 July 2017 IN MEMORIAM PETER MARTINELLI mbe 1930-2017 Peter Martinelli who died on 27th April 2017 in Tenerife aged 87 Peter was on the Market on the first day of trading after rationing ended in 1954 and worked there for many years, eventually establishing PJ Martinelli Ltd which continues to be run by his son, Paul. Peter was the first to recognise that the Market needed its own representatives on the Court of Common Council and he served himself from 1994 until 2013. He was awarded an MBE for services to the Market and was a member of the Worshipful Company of Butchers. He served on the Council of the Tenants’ Association from 1973 until 1994 and was a past President. He was a former chairman of the BDCI and was a major force behind the Great Banquet held in Grand Avenue in 2004. He was also instrumental in the refurbishment of the war memorial in Grand Avenue. A memorial service will be arranged in due course. I am not sure how Peter would have felt about being the cover story in this Gazette which he was the driving force behind for so many years. Little did we know when we were putting together the April issue that it would be his last. All we can do now is try to carry on as he would have wished.

  • Grenfell Tower Fire – a Tragic Case Study in Health Inequalities

At least 80 people died in the recent Grenfell Tower fire in Kensington and Chelsea, West London. This incident has provoked much anger, debate and reflection on how such a tragedy could happen in London, one of the richest cities in the world. Seen through a public health lens, this disaster is ultimately about social inequality in modern Britain. Kensington and Chelsea is a deeply divided community, where many billionaires and very wealthy people live cheek by jowl with poor and disenfranchised people struggling to make ends meet. It is therefore not a surprise that such a terrible incident should happen in this socially unequal setting where very stark health inequalities already exist. This paper explores some of the broader underlying factors that may have contributed to this tragedy, the political determinants of health. As these factors are linked to both general and oral health inequalities, the lessons learnt from this incident have direct relevance and salience to oral health professionals concerned about tackling social inequalities in contemporary society.

  • Grenfell Tower Inquiry Summary of Submissions Following Phase 1 of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry Summary
    Summary of submissions following Phase 1 of the Grenfell Tower inquiry Summary of submissions following Phase 1 of the Grenfell Tower inquiry Summary Introduction On 14 June 2017, 72 people died after a fire engulfed Grenfell Tower, a 24-storey residential building in West London. Following this disaster, the Prime Minister commissioned an independent public inquiry to examine the circumstances leading up to and during the fire. Chaired by Court of Appeal judge Sir Martin Moore-Bick, the inquiry will review documents and witness testimony, including from residents of Grenfell Tower. Its purpose is to establish the facts of what happened and to identify what needs to be done to prevent a similar disaster from happening again. As the Prime Minister said when commissioning the inquiry, ‘Lessons must be learned.’ The inquiry has a critical role to play in meeting human rights obligations, in particular under Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The scope of human rights obligations is a key consideration for the Inquiry in deciding whether to make interim recommendations, what these and the final recommendations should be, and how the Inquiry should now proceed. The inquiry is in two phases. Phase 1 focuses on what happened on 14 June 2017, including where and how the fire started and then spread. Phase 2 will examine the circumstances and causes of the fire, including the original design and construction of Grenfell Tower, subsequent modifications to the building, along with fire safety advice and prevention measures, and communication with residents. The inquiry is processing a vast amount of disclosed documentation – more than 250,000 documents – relating to Phase 1, with Phase 2 to follow.

  • Shelter Briefing: Response to the Grenfell Tower Fire
    Shelter briefing: Response to the Grenfell Tower Fire The Grenfell Tower fire of 14 June 2017, in which fire consumed a 24-storey block of predominately social housing flats, was one of the worst urban disasters in recent history. The horrific scenes and loss of life shocked the nation, raising major questions about how such a disaster could happen in the centre of the capital city of a country with the wealth and regulatory standards of 21st century Britain. Following this appalling tragedy, Shelter appointed a commission of 16 people to lead a national conversation about the future of social housing in England. The goal of the commissioners was to explore the future of public housing in the twenty first century and to understand the experiences of social housing tenants in England. They examined how social housing needs to change to meet the challenges of the housing crisis we face and how we, as a country, should best respond to tenants’ experiences. The Commission report calls on the government to: ➢ Rediscover publicly built housing as a key pillar of our national infrastructure by building 3.1 million new social homes over the next 20 years ➢ Protect tenants by introducing a new, separate social housing regulator responsible for proactively enforcing consumer housing standards Shelter services in Kensington and Chelsea Shelter’s national services help millions of people every year through our advice line, online and face-to-face services and our London hub provides face to face advice and support across all 33 boroughs. In the immediate aftermath of the fire at Grenfell Tower, Shelter London set up a dedicated local service to support those affected, and today continue to provide direct advice and support both to those affected by the Grenfell fire and the wider community, through free legal support, advice and ongoing casework.

  • Mayor's Report January 2019
    28th Mayor’s Report to the Assembly Mayor’s Question Time – 17 January 2019 This is my Twenty-Eighth Mayor’s Report to the Assembly, fulfilling my duty under Section 45 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999. It covers the period from 7th December 2018 – 3rd January 2019. Executive summary Publishing City Hall’s pay gap data On 3 January, City Hall published our third gender pay gap report. As Mayor, I am determined to do everything in my power to address the gender pay gap that has existed unchallenged and hidden away for far too long. It does not make for comfortable reading but if we are to correct this injustice we must continue to highlight the gaps and the need for action. The gender pay gap at City Hall has fallen from 6.14 per cent to 4.82 per cent during the last year. However, the data published paints a varied picture when it comes to tackling the gender pay gap across the functional bodies of the GLA. While there has been a modest improvement at the core GLA and Metropolitan Police, the gap has widened slightly at TfL. Three of the seven GLA Group organisations have a negative pay gap, that is, women are on average paid more than men. To coincide with the pay gap data, I also released the ‘Our Time: Supporting future leaders’ toolkit to help employers across the city to introduce my gender equality initiative in their workplaces. One key factor behind the gender pay gap is a lack of women in senior jobs.
