  • COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update
    COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update 2020 AGM mid-season review FROM EQUINITI 01 Looking back and planning ahead It is incredible to note that it has been over 12 weeks since the official announcement on 23 March of the UK Government’s Stay at Home Measures, and nearly seven months since the severity of the pandemic became apparent in China. Over the said period, PLC boards, company secretaries and investor relations officers have kept their corporate calendars going thanks to rapid adoption of modified regulatory guidelines and inventive modes of engagement with investors. With annual general meetings being an obvious highlight in the corporate calendar, we take stock of the progress made so far over the 2020 AGM season, as well as using what we learned to plan ahead. Now that we are over the first ‘hump’ with the busy period of May AGMs out of the way, we are readying for the second ‘peak’ of June and July AGMs, and then an ‘easing’ until the second ‘mini’ season in the early autumn. As such, in this update, we look at: • 2020 AGM season statistics…so far • Proxy adviser engagement and ISS recommendations review • High-level assumptions for Q3 and Q4 • Relevant updates from the regulators, industry bodies and proxy advisers • Communications in the COVID-19 world – special commentary by leading financial PR firm,Camarco • How has COVID-19 impacted activism – special commentary by international law firm,White & Case 02 2020 AGM Season Statistics…so far Scope of data To assess progress and forecast what is to come, we look at the key statistics for the UK AGM season 2020 thus far.

  • City-REDI Policy Briefing Series
    City-REDI Policy Briefing Series March Image Image 2018 Part B Carillion’s Collapse: Consequences Dr Amir Qamar & Professor Simon Collinson Carillion, the second-largest construction firm in the UK, were proud of their commitment to support regional growth and small-scale suppliers. As part of this commitment they directed 60% of project expenditure to local economies. Following the collapse of the firm, this positive multiplier effect became a significant, negative multiplier effect, particularly damaging to small-scale suppliers in the construction industry. The aim of this policy brief is to examine the consequences of Carillion’s demise, many of which are only now surfacing. One of the fundamental lessons that we can learn from Carillion’s collapse is about these ‘contagion’ effects. As we saw in the 2008 financial crisis, the businesses that underpin the economic health of the country are connected and strongly co-dependent. When a large flagship firm falls it brings down others. This does not mean we need more state intervention. But it does mean we need more intelligent state intervention. One of the fundamental lessons that the Government can learn from the Carillion episode is that it has a significant responsibility as a key customer, using public sector funds for public sector projects, to monitor the health of firms and assess the risks prior to issuing PPI and other contracts. 1 Introduction The collapse of Carillion, the second-largest construction firm in the UK, has had a significant, negative knock-on effect, particularly on small-scale suppliers in the industry. In total, Carillion was comprised of 326 subsidiaries, of which 199 were in the UK.

    HSE Health & Safety Executive A survey of UK approaches to sharing good practice in health and safety risk management Prepared by Risk Solutions for the Health and Safety Executive CONTRACT RESEARCH REPORT 412/2002 HSE Health & Safety Executive A survey of UK approaches to sharing good practice in health and safety risk management E Baker Risk Solutions 1st floor, Central House 14 Upper Woburn Place London, WC1H 0JN United Kingdom The concept of good practice is central to HSE’s approach to regulation of health and safety management. There must therefore be a common understanding of what good practice is and where it can be found. A survey was conducted to explore how industry actually identifies good practice in health and safety management, decides how to adopt it, and how this is communicated with others. The findings are based primarily on a segmentation of the survey results by organisation size, due to homogeneity of the returns along other axes of analysis. A key finding is that there is no common understanding of the term good practice or how this is distinguished from best practice. Regulatory interpretation of good practice is perceived to be inconsistent. Three models were identified: A) Large organisations, primarily in privatised industries, have effective Trade Associations where good practice is developed and guidance disseminated industry-wide. B) Large and medium-sized organisations in competitive industries have ineffective trade associations. They develop good practices in-house and may only share these with their competitors when forced to do so. C) Small organisations have little contact with their competitors.

    Keep Calm and Carillion – The Company’s Pension Schemes Are More Secure than They Look Safeguarding the Carillion pension empire The company we came to know as Carillion was created in July 1999, following a demerger from Tarmac, through which it acquired a number of huge UK employers, including Mowlem and Alfred McAlpine. This gave the new company immediate responsibility for 13 defined benefit pension schemes. Almost two decades later, 27,500 people First Actuarial’s Catherine Lockyer continue to have benefits in schemes reliant on Carillion as sponsor, with close to half of sheds light on the doom and gloom these already receiving their pensions. surrounding Carillion’s pension schemes Commentators were not slow to point to The recent collapse of the construction and public problems with Carillion’s pension schemes. services contractor, Carillion plc, sent shockwaves The Guardian reported that MPs were through the British economy. accusing the company of trying to wriggle out of its pension obligations, for example.

  • Aggregates Market Investigation
    LAFARGE AGGREGATES LIMITED AND LAFARGE CEMENT UK LIMITED OVERVIEW SUBMISSION IN RESPONSE TO THE COMPETITION COMMISSION’S STATEMENT OF ISSUES NON-CONFIDENTIAL VERSION April, 2012 K&E 91146101.1 OVERVIEW SUBMISSION IN RESPONSE TO THE COMPETITION COMMISSION’S STATEMENT OF ISSUES 1. This Submission is made by Lafarge Aggregates Limited and Lafarge Cement UK Limited (together, “Lafarge”) in response to the Competition Commission’s (“CC”) Statement of Issues dated 8 March 2012. A. Executive Summary 2. The timing of the CC market investigation into the supply or acquisition of aggregates, cement and ready-mix concrete (“RMX”) (the “MIR”) presents a series of challenges for both the CC and market participants, including Lafarge: Market Decline. The MIR takes place against the backdrop of an economic downturn since 2008 which has been longer and more severe than any experienced by the construction materials industry within the last 30 years. The reduction in volumes has accelerated again in 2012 with year-on-year declines for the first quarter in excess of 10 per cent for aggregates and RMX, while GB cement volumes appear likely to decline or to remain flat at best in 2012. Industry forecasts do not predict any change in these trends before at least 2014, at which point demand is expected still to remain below levels seen in 2009. Any potential improvements will develop from a low base, resulting in sustained and significant levels of overcapacity. Combination of Lafarge and Tarmac. Lafarge announced in February 2011 the proposed combination of its UK construction materials business with that of Tarmac Limited (the “Proposed JV”).

Each tort is carefully structured and examined within a consistent analytical framework that guides students through its preconditions, elements, defences, and remedies. Clear summaries and comparisons accompany the detailed exposition, and further support is provided by numerous diagrams and tables, which clarify complex aspects of the law. Critical discussion of legal judgments encourages students to develop strong analytical and case-reading skills, while key reform pro posals and leading cases from other jurisdictions illustrate different potential solutions to conun- drums in Tort law. A rich companion website, featuring semesterly updates, and ten additional chapters and sections on more advanced areas of Tort law, completes the learning package. Written speciically for students, the text is also ideal for practitioners, litigants, policy-makers, and law reformers seeking a comprehensive and accurate understanding of the law.
