We also have only eight all-male boards remaining in the FTSE 350, and none in the FTSE 100. We are supporting the Hampton-Alexander Review to meet their target of women holding 33% of FTSE 100 senior leadership positions and 33% of FTSE 350 board positions. The Hampton-Alexander Review will report on 9 November regarding progress over the last 12 months of women on boards for FTSE 350 companies.</p><p> </p><p>We will continue to work with businesses to highlight the benefits they gain from a more diverse board membership.</p> answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton question first answered 25/10/2017 13:31:18 answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton
