Commission an independent review of our social, environmental and ethical (SEE) processes, initially in our UK businesses

Work with UK media companies and industry bodies to develop understanding of our main social responsibilities

Introduce independent verification into targeted areas of our social responsibility activities

Complete the register of the environmental performance of our key printers

Map the sources of wood, certification methods used and recycled content for the paper supplied to us for our books and newspapers

Continue to assess key printers and paper suppliers against the UN Global Compact standards

Continue our drive to reduce the energy used in our buildings

Continue to increase the recruitment and promotion of people from minority backgrounds, as well as the number of women in senior management roles
