The Agency provides this information to meet our commitment to openness.

Details of meetings attended by the Chair and Deputy Chair are provided for Open Board meetings as a Standing Order paper . These standing order papers are updated with information from the last open Board meeting. Where a Director doesn't appear, it is because he or she had no meetings with external stakeholders during the displayed month.
