The Board considers that all the members have appropriate financial experience to enable them to contribute to the Audit Committee’s work. The Board also consider that each of the members of the Audit Committee satisfies the requirements for independence set out in section 303A.02 of the New York Stock Exchange rules and the Rules 10A-3 under the United States Security Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. David Landless is the ‘Audit Committee Financial Expert’ as defined in United States Item 407(d) of Regulation SK.
Each year, normally prior to the commencement of the financial year, the Committee establishes a schedule of meetings to coincide with the key events in the company’s financial reporting and audit cycle to ensure it has sufficient time on its agendas to deal with matters for which it has responsibility. Agendas and appropriate papers are issued for each meeting. The Chairman speaks to the external auditors as he considers appropriate and necessary in preparation for meetings at which matters are discussed that have been audited by auditors or are relevant to them. Luxfer’s external auditors attend certain meetings as appropriate, normally in connection with the year-end audit and pre-approval of services to be provided by such auditors.
The Audit Committee has adopted and implemented a ‘Policy on the Provision of Audit and Non-Audit Services by Auditors’ (the “Pre-approval Policy”) to comply with auditor independence requirements contained in Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act. The policy requires the Audit Committee to pre-approve all matters upon which Luxfer’s auditors are requested to advise (audit and non-audit work), including fees, subject to certain pre-approvals made annually by the Audit Committee. A pre-approved sum to be spent on audit and tax matters is delegated to the Chief Financial Officer and there is a procedure for approval of urgent items by the Chairman between meetings. The policy also affirmatively proscribes the Company’s auditors from advising on certain matters.
