Corporate Governance
Corporate governance comprises the systems and procedures by which Bord Gáis
Éireann is directed and controlled. As a statutory body, Bord Gáis Éireann
does not have a memorandum or articles of association. Instead, its objects,
powers and duties or ‘functions’ and the provisions regulating its exercise of
these functions are set out in the Gas Acts 1976 to 2002 and associated
legislation. While day to day responsibility for the leadership and control is
delegated, within defined authority limits, to the Chief Executive and his
Management Team, the Board is ultimately accountable for the performance of
Bord Gáis Éireann.
The Board is committed to achieving the highest standards of corporate
governance and ethical business conduct.
