Absolutely not. We are beginning to see more women and ethnic minorities coming through to senior positions. As we increase numbers we can expect this to increase even more.

Absolutely not. Promotion and advancement is entirely on merit. We are beginning to see more women and ethnic minorities coming through to senior positions. As their numbers increase we can expect more women and ethnic minorities serving in senior positions.
