"Trevor outlined to the board that his decision had been taken for mainly personal reasons but said he also felt the timing is right for the Company.

"I am grateful that Trevor has indicated that he intends to make a full contribution in post until a suitable replacement CEO is found. That selection process had already commenced with the appointment of search consultants and it is likely that the post will be advertised next month."
