UK: FRC publishes 21/22 draft plan, strategy and budget

A few days ago the Financial Reporting Council published its draft plan, strategy and budget for 2021/22: see here (pdf). Alongside the work being done to create ARGA - the new Audit, Reporting and Governance Authority - the document notes the intention to "[u]ndertake assessments of performance against the UK Corporate Governance Code, the UK Stewardship Code and the Wates Corporate Governance Code for Large Private Companies. Subject to the outcome of Government consultation [a white paper is expected soon, the Financial Times has reported], consult on revisions to the UK Corporate Governance Code and associated guidance ahead of legislation"
