During 2020/21, we consulted extensively with our largest shareholders, proxy advisors and shareholder representative organisations on the proposed Directors' Remuneration Report (Resolution 2), the proposed Directors' Remuneration Policy (Resolution 3) and the new Long-Term Incentive Plan (Resolution 15). The Board notes that a majority of shareholders voted in support of the three resolutions. Accordingly, the new Remuneration Policy will take effect for three years from fiscal year 2022 and will be implemented by the Remuneration Committee. The Board acknowledges that some shareholders did not vote in favour of these three resolutions. In making its Executive Director pay decisions and devising the new Directors' Remuneration Policy, the Board was acutely aware of the sensitivities around executive remuneration in the prevailing environment and balanced these concerns with the need to retain and incentivise a strong management team to deliver on our ambitious growth strategy. Importantly, the new policy is aligned with the wider workforce, who have the opportunity to share, in a meaningful and aligned manner, in the value created for shareholders over the next few years. Consequently, the Board firmly believes that the changes approved by shareholders are in the best interests of all of the Group's stakeholders. We value an open and transparent dialogue with our shareholders and we will continue to engage with them to ensure all views are understood and respected and taken into consideration in applying the new Directors' Remuneration Policy going forwards. In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code we will publish an update on this engagement within six months of the AGM.
