UK: Combined Code: Proposed Changes

(1) the removal of the restriction preventing an individual from chairing more than one FTSE100 company

(2) for listed companies outside of the FTSE350, to allow the chairman to be a member of, but not chair, of the audit committee providing he or she was considered independent on appointment.
