Climate change is a material and strategic priority for IGO and is therefore part of ongoing discussions and analysis at the most senior levels of management and the Board. Climate change is routinely incorporated into Board discussions, strategy meetings, investment decisions, risk management oversight and monitoring, performance targets and executive remuneration. The Board approves our overall strategy and climate change policy and is ultimately responsible for IGO's climate change management. [...] IGO's ELT routinely considers climate change driven market and technology developments as driven by IGO's strategic aspiration to become a globally relevant supplier of products critical to clean energy storage and renewable energy. IGO's Chief Operating Officer holds core accountability for strategic leadership and governance of sustainability related matters, including climate change. [...] The Board's Sustainability Committee oversees and monitors IGO's risk framework and management systems in relation to sustainability areas and has a number of associated responsibilities, including regularly reviewing climate change risks, business critical risks and ensuring that new and emerging risks are dealt with adequately. The Committee Charter explicitly requires climate change-related risks to be incorporated into this process and routinely discussed at Committee meetings. The Sustainability Committee met four times in FY22, with key Board engagement on climate change summarised in the box below.

###### 4.1 Corporate Governance

IGO has developed a strong framework to manage our modern slavery governance.

Our key documents include our Human Rights Policy, Code of Conduct and Speak Up Standard, available in the Governance section of our website. Our Board undertakes an annual review of our policies and standards.

Our Sustainability Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities by overseeing, monitoring, reviewing and reporting to the Board our practices and governance in our sustainability areas, including human rights. The Sustainability Committee is responsible for overseeing IGO's risk framework and management systems related to sustainability, as well as the identification, management and mitigation of sustainability-related risks and performance.

IGO's Board, through the Board-level Sustainability Committee, delegates responsibility for compliance with the Act and execution and implementation of IGO's modern slavery obligations to the Chief Legal Officer and Chief People and Sustainability Officer. In FY24, IGO's Chief Legal Officer maintained responsibility for assessment and due diligence relating to our broader operational risks.

The Chief Legal Officer assigns responsibility for modern slavery due diligence relating to IGO's supply chains to senior management in the Corporate Procurement team with support from the Risk and Compliance team and Sustainability team. The Corporate Procurement and Risk and Compliance teams work together to conduct supply chain risk assessments and governance activities.
