The following changes to Tate & Lyle's Board and Board Committees are also announced.

Board

Anne Minto will retire from the Board at the conclusion of the AGM on Thursday 29 July, having served as a non-executive director since December 2012 and as the Chair of the Remuneration Committee for over six years. A search is underway for a new non-executive director to replace Anne.
