Items of business for consideration Of particular relevance among this year’s items of business for your consideration is the election and re-election of directors. Three current non-executive directors are standing for re-election. The Board has reviewed these directors’ performance and endorses their re-election. In addition, a shareholder with one ordinary share in the Company, Mr Barrow, has nominated himself for election. The Board unanimously believes that it is not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders that Mr Barrow be elected as a non-executive director, and the Board recommends that shareholders vote against the election of Mr Barrow. Other items of business that shareholders are asked to consider are the Company’s financial statements and reports, the approval of certain securities issued during the year, the Remuneration Report, and the grant of performance rights to the Group Chief Executive Officer under the Company’s short term incentive and long term incentive plans. Viewing the meeting on the internet The AGM will be webcast from 9.30am (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) on Thursday, 19 December 2013 and archived at www.nabgroup.com/agm so that shareholders unable to attend can watch on the day or at any time convenient to them.

  • The Case for Adopting a Melbourne Maritime Heritage Network Approach
    Melbourne – A Great Maritime City The Case for Adopting a Melbourne Maritime Heritage Network Approach The State Government has the overarching authority to establish this Network and deliver benefits aimed specifically at economic up-lift and efficiencies, which so many stakeholders have identified as lacking. Key maritime stakeholders express enthusiasm for an official plan to implement a collaborative approach to link the geographically ‘dispersed’ Maritime Heritage Assets and Precincts via a Network. After extensive consultations with key stakeholders and research over several months during 2017, 2018 and 2019 several urgent actions have emerged, which deliver direct benefit the City of Melbourne, to the State of Victoria and to the public. Note: The State Govt 2019-2020 Annual Budget in effect recognises the poor management of Yarra waterways, allocating $5.1 million to protecting waterways and making specific reference to the need to continue to improve the management of the Yarra River. A Maritime Heritage Network Approach would effectively: • Counter the frustrating bureaucratic tangle, which has led to the ‘deficit’ existing today in relation to Melbourne’s rich maritime legacy. • Acknowledge existence of Melbourne and Victoria’s maritime legacy throughout Greater Melbourne. • Embed Melbourne’s Maritime Trade Legacy within ‘Brand’ Melbourne and Victoria. • Deliver the mutual benefit of a fostering collaboration between the multiple and enthusiastic stakeholder groups in Melbourne and around Greater Melbourne. • Capture the cultural and economic value of the remnant Maritime Trade Legacy. • Optimise the public and private return on investment in maritime assets or sites. • Capture the benefits of shared ticketing, cross promotion etc. in relation to ferry links, tourist maps and public transport options.
