The Group’s policy is to not engage in or tolerate bribery in any form within our organisation or within organisations that we do business with. Beacon Hill Resources Plc has noted the coming into force of the UK Bribery Act 2010 (“the Act”) on 1 July 2011 and the UK Government Guidance that has been published to assist organisations with their implementation of adequate procedures to prevent bribery occurring. In the light of these developments, the Group has commissioned an appropriate formal Anti-Bribery Policy that will be implemented in the near future.
All officers and staff will be required to comply with this Anti-Bribery Policy and where practicable, we expect all third parties whom we engage to do business on our behalf to take account of this Anti-Bribery Policy and to act in accordance with its provisions when carrying out work on our behalf. The Board of Beacon Hill Resources Plc has overall responsibility for bribery prevention and will closely monitor the effectiveness of its Anti-Bribery Programme.
