Board of Directors

  • Board Member Profiles: In addition to providing the names and positions of each board member, as the Annual Report does, you could create a dedicated page for each board member. You could include their photos, their biographies, information about their experience, and a list of the other boards they sit on. This would provide more transparency into their qualifications and potential conflicts of interest.
  • Board Committees: The Corporate Governance page would be a good place to provide more information about Lanka Ceramic PLC’s board committees, expanding on the information provided in the Annual Report. You could create a dedicated page for each committee: the Audit Committee, the Remuneration Committee, and the Related Party Transactions Review Committee. For each one, you could explain:
    • The committee’s responsibilities
    • The committee’s members
    • Where to find the committee’s charter
  • Meeting Attendance: You could provide information about attendance at board and committee meetings. For example, you could list how many meetings each board member attended in the past fiscal year and whether they attended virtually or in person. This information is included in the 2023-2024 Annual Report; by providing this information on an ongoing basis on the company website, Lanka Ceramic PLC would be demonstrating a commitment to transparency.

Policies and Procedures

  • Corporate Governance Code: The Corporate Governance page would be a good place to articulate Lanka Ceramic PLC’s commitment to the Code of Best Practice on Corporate Governance issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka. You could explain that this Code “provides a framework for promoting the highest standards of corporate governance”, and you could state that Lanka Ceramic PLC “is committed to adhering to the principles and best practices outlined in the Code”. You could also link directly to the Code so investors can read it themselves.
  • Whistleblower Policy: The sources note that Lanka Ceramic PLC has a Code of Conduct that applies to all employees, but the sources do not say whether Lanka Ceramic PLC has a formal whistleblower policy. A whistleblower policy would allow employees to report concerns about accounting or auditing matters without fear of retaliation. If Lanka Ceramic PLC does not have such a policy, you should consider helping the company to develop one. If the company does have a whistleblower policy, you could include it on the Corporate Governance page.

Shareholder Information

  • Shareholder Rights: You could use the Corporate Governance page to summarize shareholder rights. For instance, you could tell investors:
    • How to vote their shares
    • How to submit a shareholder proposal
    • How to contact the company with questions or concerns.
  • Annual General Meeting Information: The sources include the Notice of Meeting for the 2024 Annual General Meeting, as well as a form to appoint a proxy to attend the meeting. You could provide similar information about future AGMs on the Corporate Governance page. This page would be a good place to publish the date, time, and location of upcoming AGMs, as well as information about how shareholders can participate in the meetings. You could also use this space to post the minutes from past AGMs.
