  • 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of A
    Committee: Date: Planning and Transportation 28 February 2017 Subject: Public 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of a building arranged on three basement floors, ground and 58 upper floors plus mezzanines and plant comprising floorspace for use within Classes A and B1 of the Use Classes Order and a publicly accessible viewing gallery and facilities (sui generis); hard and soft landscaping works; the provision of ancillary servicing and other works incidental to the development. (201,449sq.m. GEA) Ward: Lime Street For Decision Registered No: 16/01150/FULEIA Registered on: 24 November 2016 Conservation Area: St Helen's Place Listed Building: No Summary The planning application relates to the site of the 62 storey tower (294.94m AOD) granted planning permission in June 2016 and which is presently being constructed. The current scheme is for a tower comprising 59 storeys at ground and above (272.32m AOD) with an amended design to the top. The tapering of the upper storeys previously approved has been omitted and replaced by a flat topped lower tower. In other respects the design of the elevations remains as before. The applicants advise that the lowering of the tower in the new proposal is in response to construction management constraints in relation to aviation safeguarding issues. The planning application also incorporates amendments to the base of the building, the public realm and to cycle space provision which were proposed in a S73 amendment application and which your Committee resolved to grant on 28 November 2016, subject to a legal agreement but not yet issued. The building would provide offices, retail at ground level, a viewing gallery with free public access at levels 55 and 56 and a public restaurant and bar at levels 57 and 58.

I welcome this publication as a powerful contribution to helping make this a reality. Tony Good Chair of Accounting Advocacy, UK Society of Investment Professionals Evolving good practices in corporate reporting should provide investors with far greater transparency on a company’s internal performance targets and how management assesses the company’s performance against those targets. This publication provides very useful guidance on how management can provide the information valued by investors, in a practical way.

Aspects of this debate are, understandably, causing concern amongst preparers of annual reports. Not least of these is the provision of a “forward-looking orientation” which, in our experience, many companies fi nd a real challenge. But what does this mean in practice? Will it require providing competitively- sensitive information? What about the reliability of such forward-looking information? Will companies face the threat of litigation? Will this mean making profi t forecasts? Put simply, the reporting of of examples from some of these forward-looking information is a companies that demonstrate aspects critical component of effective of what we believe is effective communication to the market communication of the future that and this “how to” guide has been others can learn from.
