Notes
 
 
For all resolutions, as at 6.30 pm on 22 May 2018 (the time at which shareholders who wanted to attend, speak and vote at the meeting were required to have their details entered in the register of members), there were 72,216,988,490 ordinary shares in issue.
 
 
225 ordinary shareholders or persons representing ordinary shareholders attended the meeting. Ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not votes and, therefore, have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against a resolution. In accordance with the UK Listing Authority's Listing Rules, copies of the resolutions will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm
 
 
Resolution 14
 
 
We welcome the broad shareholder support for our 2017 Remuneration Report.  Shareholder discussions and voting outcomes in recent years, in particular the 98 per cent vote for the Directors Remuneration Policy in 2017, suggest that our policy and approach to executive remuneration are appropriate.
 
We actively engage with our shareholders and representative bodies, including the proxy advisors, to ensure that we are aware of their views, and as a consequence in 2017 we made significant enhancements to the level of disclosure.
 
The Board notes that while the resolution to approve the Remuneration Report was passed with a substantial majority of close to 80%, there were a significant number of votes opposing the resolution.  Going forward, we will engage further with all shareholders and proxy advisors to discuss the Group's approach to remuneration with a view to further simplifying and enhancing our disclosure.
