overview 7 Competition Commission update Recent speculative media reports have raised the profile of the Commissioner’s investigation into the construction industry. These have confused the markets’ understanding of the Commission's mandated process. Group Five’s industry leading actions over five years demonstrate its commitment to ethical business: 2008 • Competition Commission (Comp.Com) announces its intention to investigate the construction industry (as oppose to earlier investigations into associated supplier industries) • Group Five conducted in-house Competition Law awareness programmes which revealed behaviours of a few were concerning • Group was at risk for historic industry practises 2009 • An invasive & exhaustive internal investigation, under oath was undertaken • Staff came forward to make full disclosures to protect the Group’s position • Group Five was then the first major construction company to approach the Comp.Com and applied for leniency overview 8 Competition Commission update (contd) 2010 - 2012 • Extensive co-operation was provided by the group in support of our disclosures • Group Five was the 1st applicant in all matters we reported, resulting in conditional leniency being granted, pending conclusion of the full industry investigation • Comp.Com launched its “fast track” process in 2011, as a result of the Group’s earlier co-operation, which triggered wider industry participation 2013 • No provision raised due to co operation & position as leniency applicant • No guarantee of zero fines until Comp.Com complete their process Due to the provisions of Comp.Com’s leniency policy no further disclosure can be made until the investigation is closed. Management regrets the past behaviours in this industry. • We trust that our early actions from 2008 have contributed to a changed industry 4
