The paper sets out a suggested framework for new guidance around five areas: [1] roles and responsibilities of the board and its members; [2] skill levels in the boardroom; [3] board decision-making; [4] the individual on the board; and [5] accountability. Responses should be submitted by 16 April. In June, ICSA will publish a further consultation paper with the aim of submitting completed guidance to the FRC in October.
