As announced on 9 January 2025,
Patrick O'Donnell Bourke stepped down as Chair and as a director of
the Company with effect from the end of the General Meeting. Brett
Miller has accordingly taken on the role of Chair and will also
chair the Company's Management Engagement Committee, which
comprises all three directors.
The Company notes that the approval
of the new investment policy by shareholders satisfies one of a
number of conditions to completion of the Company's conditional
disposal of its distributed solar assets (the DG Solar Transaction), which was
announced on 13 December 2024. Progress continues to be made toward
the satisfaction of the various other consents and conditions.
Completion of the DG Solar Transaction is still expected to occur
within the first quarter of 2025 and a further announcement will be
made in due course.
