RNS Number : 7859Z  Halma PLC  23 September 2020

Chair retirement

 

Halma plc announces that Paul Walker has indicated his intention to retire
from his role as Chair of Halma plc, and step down from the Board by July
2021, to take up a new position externally. When he steps down, Paul will have
served as Chair for eight years and as a non-executive director for over eight
years. His retirement aligns with the board succession plan and the UK
Corporate Governance Code requirement that a chair should not remain in post
beyond nine years from their first appointment to the board.

 

The Nomination Committee has established a process, led by Tony Rice, Senior
Independent Director, to identify and appoint a new Chair as his successor,
which will be announced in due course.
