Europe: GC100 response to Commission's corporate governance green paper

The Association of General Counsel and Company Secretaries of the FTSE 100 (the GC100) has published its reponse to the European Commission's green paper on the European corporate governance framework: see here (Word).  The GC100 endorses the UK's 'comply or explain' approach and notes, amongst other things, that the questions in the Commission's green paper do not sufficiently address the role of the chairman.
