The policy of the Group is to conduct its operations in an environmentally sustainable manner in order to protect the environment for future generations.

In implementing its policy the Group will seek, through its operating companies, to ensure:

• Compliance with relevant environmental legislation and regulation
• Prevention of pollution
• The efficient use of natural resources
• The minimisation of waste and emissions to air and water
• Environmental awareness of all employees
• Effective monitoring of environmental performance
• Continual improvement in environmental performance.

The Group will set targets and objectives for the improvement of environmental management and will publish details of its environmental performance.

All employees have a role to play in care of the environment. The Group has appointed a director to be responsible for environmental issues, and environmental responsibilities are allocated to line management throughout the organisation.

This policy will be subject to periodic review to ensure it continues to meet the Group environmental requirements.
