Board Committee Changes
Indivior PLC (the "Company") (LSE/NASDAQ: INDV) announces the following
changes to the structure and composition of its Board Committees effective
October 1, 2023. These changes are designed to fully align and support
Indivior's key strategic priorities:
· The Nomination & Governance Committee has been renamed the
Compliance, Ethics & Sustainability Committee and will have responsibility
for the oversight of the Group's Global Integrity and Compliance Program and
approach to ethical, responsible and sustainable conduct. Mark Stejbach has
been appointed as a member and Chair of this Committee.
· The nomination-related responsibilities currently undertaken by the
Nomination & Governance Committee will be transferred to a new Nomination
Committee which will have oversight of Board and Committee composition and
succession planning. This Committee comprises Graham Hetherington as Chair and
all Non-Executive Directors.
· The Science & Policy Committee has been renamed the Science
Committee. This Committee has oversight of the Group's R&D strategy and
pipeline development. Policy matters, which previously fell under this
Committee's remit, will now become part of the Board's remit. There are no
changes to the membership of this Committee.
· The Audit Committee has been renamed the Audit & Risk Committee
to better reflect the role it plays in the oversight of internal control and
risk management activities. There are no changes to the membership of this
Committee.
· As previously announced, Jo Le Couilliard has been appointed as Chair
of the Remuneration Committee. In addition, Barbara Ryan has been appointed as
