Governance of the application and delivery of the NSG Group sustainability policy, environmental policy and SBTi target is undertaken at the highest possible level within the organisation via the Group executive management committee and sustainability committee. The adherence of these policies and targets, signed off by the NSG Group CEO, is a fundamental responsibility for all employees of NSG Group. The climate strategy of NSG Group aligns directly to the overall Group strategy and mission 'Changing our surroundings, improving our world'. The ongoing management of activities to achieve the targets established is reported on a regular basis to the governance committees of NSG Group, with the establishment and tracking of various key performance indicators demonstrating the delivery of defined actions. The sustainability committee and various sub committees, e.g. energy and carbon management committee ensures that the performance of these KPI's is on track to deliver and in cases where any deviation is seen, action plans established and implemented to ensure targets are back on track over appropriate timescales. The Sustainability committee also ensures that the KPI's of importance are reviewed to ensure they remain relevant as a measure of the engagement of the Group in achieving the business strategy.
