2 A Introduction This guidance note proposes model terms of reference for the nomination committee of a company seeking to comply fully with the requirements of the UK Corporate Governance Code, published June 2010 (the Code). It draws on the experience of company secretaries and is based on best practice as carried out in some of the UK s top listed companies. B The UK Corporate Governance Code The Code states that: There should be a formal, rigorous and transparent procedure for the appointment of new directors to the board. 1 It also provides that: There should be a nomination committee which should lead the process for board appointments and make recommendations to the board. 2 The Code states that every company should be headed by an effective board which is collectively responsible for the long-term success of the company. The board and its committees should have the appropriate balance of skills, experience, independence and knowledge of the company to enable them to discharge their respective duties and responsibilities effectively. 3 All directors should be able to allocate sufficient time to the company to discharge their responsibilities effectively. 4 As with most aspects of corporate governance, the company must be seen to be doing all these things in a fair and thorough manner. The chairman of the nomination committee should attend the AGM to answer any questions which may be raised by shareholders on matters within the committee s area of responsibility. 5 The Code also requires the terms of reference of the nomination committee, explaining its role and the authority delegated to it by the board, to be made available (e.g. by placing them on a website maintained by or on behalf of the company). 6 It is, therefore, essential that the nomination committee be properly constituted with a clear remit and identified authority. C Notes on the terms of reference The list of duties of the nomination committee is based on existing best practice from a number of sources. 7 Some companies may wish to add to this list and some companies may need to modify it in other ways. The Code states that the majority of members serving on the nomination committee should be independent non-executive directors although it gives no guidance on the overall size of the committee. 8 We have recommended a committee of at least three but companies with larger boards may wish to consider 1 The Code, B.2 2 The Code, B The Code, B.1 4 The Code, B.3 5 The Code, E The Code, B.2.1 (see also footnote 7 to the Code) 7 including the UK Corporate Governance Code, associated guidance and FSA Policy Statement 10/15, September The Code, B.2.1. Guidance on circumstances likely to affect independence is given in Code provision B.1.1. Page 2

3 increasing this to four or five. Unlike other board committees, the chairman of the board can be chair of the Nomination Committee. 9 The Code provides 10 that a majority of members should be independent, rather than all, therefore membership can include executive directors, such as the chief executive. Although not a provision in the Code it is good practice for the company secretary (or his/her nominee) to act as secretary to the committee. The nomination committee should also have access to the services of the company secretariat on all committee matters, including assisting the chairman in planning the committee s work, drawing up meeting agendas, maintenance of minutes, drafting of material about its activities for the annual report, collection and distribution of information and provision of any necessary practical support. The company secretary should ensure that the nomination committee receives information and papers in a timely manner to enable full and proper consideration to be given to the issues. In this regard, it is the company secretary s responsibility to ensure that the board and its committees are properly constituted and advised, and that there is clear co-ordination between the board and the various committees. The frequency with which the committee needs to meet will vary considerably from company to company and may change from time to time. It is, however, good practice to plan a minimum number of meetings each year to cover the review of items that form part of the regular cycle such as directors subject to annual re-election or retiring by rotation, and senior management succession; and to review the statement of its activities in the annual report. In addition there will need to be ad hoc meetings for the committee to consider new appointments. D Model terms of reference Note: square brackets contain recommendations which are in line with best practice but which may need to be changed to suit the circumstances of the particular organisation. 1. Membership 1.1 The committee shall comprise at least [three] directors. A majority of the members of the committee shall be independent non-executive directors. 1.2 Only members of the committee have the right to attend committee meetings. However, other individuals such as the chief executive, the head of human resources and external advisers may be invited to attend for all or part of any meeting, as and when appropriate and necessary. 1.3 Appointments to the committee are made by the board and shall be for a period of up to three years, which may be extended for further periods of up to three-years, provided the director still meets the criteria for membership of the committee. 1.4 The board shall appoint the committee chairman who should be either the chairman of the board or an independent non-executive director. In the absence of the committee chairman and/or an appointed deputy, the remaining members present shall elect one of themselves to chair the meeting from those who would qualify under these terms of reference to be appointed to that position by the board. The chairman of the board shall not chair the committee when it is dealing with the matter of succession to the chairmanship. 2. Secretary The company secretary or his or her nominee shall act as the secretary of the committee. 3. Quorum The quorum necessary for the transaction of business shall be [two] [both of whom must be independent 9 although the chairman of the board should not chair the Nomination Committee when it is dealing with the appointment of a successor chairman: the Code B at provision B.2.1 Page 3

4 non-executive directors]. A duly convened meeting of the committee at which a quorum is present shall be competent to exercise all or any of the authorities, powers and discretions vested in or exercisable by the committee. 4. Frequency of meetings The committee shall meet at least [twice] a year 11 and otherwise as required Notice of meetings 5.1 Meetings of the committee shall be called by the secretary of the committee at the request of the committee chairman. 5.2 Unless otherwise agreed, notice of each meeting confirming the venue, time and date, together with an agenda of items to be discussed, shall be forwarded to each member of the committee, any other person required to attend and all other non-executive directors, no later than [five] working days before the date of the meeting. Supporting papers shall be sent to committee members and to other attendees as appropriate, at the same time. 6. Minutes of meetings 6.1 The secretary shall minute the proceedings and resolutions of all committee meetings, including the names of those present and in attendance. 6.2 Draft minutes of committee meetings shall be circulated promptly to all members of the committee. Once approved, minutes should be circulated to all other members of the board unless it would be inappropriate to do so. 7. Annual General Meeting The committee chairman should attend the annual general meeting to answer any shareholder questions on the committee s activities. 8. Duties The committee should carry out the duties below for the parent company, major subsidiary undertakings and the group as a whole, as appropriate. The committee shall 8.1 regularly review the structure, size and composition (including the skills, knowledge, experience and diversity) of the board and make recommendations to the board with regard to any changes 8.2 give full consideration to succession planning for directors and other senior executives in the course of its work, taking into account the challenges and opportunities facing the company, and the skills and expertise needed on the board in the future 8.3 keep under review the leadership needs of the organisation, both executive and non-executive, with a view to ensuring the continued ability of the organisation to compete effectively in the marketplace 8.4 keep up to date and fully informed about strategic issues and commercial changes affecting the company and the market in which it operates 8.5 be responsible for identifying and nominating for the approval of the board, candidates to fill board 11 Some small companies and investment trusts may not need more than one scheduled meeting of the nomination committee each year. 12 The frequency and timing of meetings will differ according to the needs of the company. Meetings should be organised so that attendance is maximised (for example by timetabling them to coincide with board meetings). Page 4

5 vacancies as and when they arise 8.6 before any appointment is made by the board, evaluate the balance of skills, knowledge, experience and diversity on the board, and, in the light of this evaluation prepare a description of the role and capabilities required for a particular appointment. In identifying suitable candidates the committee shall use open advertising or the services of external advisers to facilitate the search consider candidates from a wide range of backgrounds consider candidates on merit and against objective criteria and with due regard for the benefits of diversity on the board, including gender, taking care that appointees have enough time available to devote to the position for the appointment of a chairman, the committee should prepare a job specification, including the time commitment expected. A proposed chairman s other significant commitments should be disclosed to the board before appointment and any changes to the chairman s commitments should be reported to the board as they arise prior to the appointment of a director, the proposed appointee should be required to disclose any other business interests that may result in a conflict of interest and be required to report any future business interests that could result in a conflict of interest ensure that on appointment to the board, non-executive directors receive a formal letter of appointment setting out clearly what is expected of them in terms of time commitment, committee service and involvement outside board meetings 8.10 review the results of the board performance evaluation process that relate to the composition of the board 8.11 review annually the time required from non-executive directors. Performance evaluation should be used to assess whether the non-executive directors are spending enough time to fulfil their duties The committee shall also make recommendations to the board concerning 8.12 formulating plans for succession for both executive and non-executive directors and in particular for the key roles of chairman and chief executive 8.13 suitable candidates for the role of senior independent director 8.14 membership of the audit and remuneration committees, and any other board committees as appropriate, in consultation with the chairmen of those committees 8.15 the re-appointment of any non-executive director at the conclusion of their specified term of office having given due regard to their performance and ability to continue to contribute to the board in the light of the knowledge, skills and experience required 8.16 the re-election by shareholders of directors under the annual re-election provisions of the Code 16 or the retirement by rotation provisions in the company s articles of association, having due regard to their performance and ability to continue to contribute to the board in the light of the knowledge, skills and experience required and the need for progressive refreshing of the board (particularly in relation to directors being re-elected for a term beyond six years) 8.17 any matters relating to the continuation in office of any director at any time including the suspension or termination of service of an executive director as an employee of the company subject to the provisions of the law and their service contract 8.18 the appointment of any director to executive or other office 9. Reporting responsibilities 13 When considering a new appointment the proposed new non-executive director s other commitments should be taken into account to ensure he or she has sufficient time to devote to the company. For an appointment to an FSA regulated company, FSA policy statement 10/15 page 26 states the FSA will consider the candidate s existing commitments when assessing their suitability for the role. 14 The Code, B.3.1. This information should also be disclosed in the next annual report. 15 Companies Act 2006, s provision B.7.1 Page 5

6 9.1 The committee chairman shall report to the board on its proceedings after each meeting on all matters within its duties and responsibilities. 9.2 The committee shall make whatever recommendations to the board it deems appropriate on any area within its remit where action or improvement is needed. 9.3 The committee shall produce a report to be included in the company s annual report about its activities, the process used to make appointments and explain if external advice or open advertising has not been used. 10. Other matters The committee shall 10.1 have access to sufficient resources in order to carry out its duties, including access to the company secretariat for assistance as required 10.2 be provided with appropriate and timely training, both in the form of an induction programme for new members and on an ongoing basis for all members 10.3 give due consideration to laws and regulations, the provisions of the Code and the requirements of the UK Listing Authority s Listing, Prospectus and Disclosure and Transparency Rules and any other applicable Rules, as appropriate 10.4 arrange for periodic reviews of its own performance and, at least annually, review its constitution and terms of reference to ensure it is operating at maximum effectiveness and recommend any changes it considers necessary to the board for approval. 11. Authority The committee is authorised by the board to obtain, at the company s expense, outside legal or other professional advice on any matters within its terms of reference.
