We have designed and implemented a substantial range of governance initiatives, described in detail below, and we believe that our corporate governance systems are robust and effective. We recognise corporate governance is not static and systems will need to evolve over time to meet the demands of a changing market and corporate circumstances.

Any departures to implementation of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations are described in the corporate governance statement below. As a result of the Trust not having employees of its own, and as a result of the limited business activities of the Trust, some of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s recommendations are undertaken by Goodman Group (Goodman) rather than the Trust, as set out below.
