The Chairman is responsible for the leadership of the Board, and for the efficient functioning of the Board. The Chairman is responsible for ensuring that Board members are adequately briefed in sufficient time for issues arising at Board meetings; therefore it is vital that the Chairman commit sufficient time to perform his role effectively, taking into account the points below:

a) The role of Chairman and Chief Executive may not be exercised by the same person; and
b) Furthermore, there needs to be a clear division of responsibility between these two positions (see also HC-1.3.8 in this regard).
