Why Police Mutual?

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Police Mutual Assurance Society Limited took place on Thursday 8 May 2008 at the Peebles Hotel Hydro, Peebles, Scotland.

As in previous years there were a number of re-elections and changes to the Committee of Management at the 2008 AGM.  The objective of the Committee of Management is to express what members want from the Society in terms of products and services and ensure the strong link with the Police Service continues.  The re-elections and changes are listed below:

Sir Ronnie Flanagan, HMCIC for England and Wales was re-elected as President.

All four existing Vice Presidents were re-elected.  These were Ian Johnston, Sir Paul Scott-Lee, Julie Spence and Paul Stephenson. In addition one new Vice President David Strang was elected.

As Chief Executive of the Society, Graham Berville was re-elected to the Committee of Management.

Six of the eight existing members of the Committee of Management were re-elected.  These were Aidan Beck, Gary Horsburgh, Mick Joiner, Glenn Milne, Ieuan Watkins and Nicholas Wyer.  In addition, two new members of the Committee of Management, Gareth Jones and Philip Haworth were elected.  Steve Curtis and Nigel Hibbert retired as members of the Committee of Management and they were thanked for the commitment they had shown the Society since their appointments in 2002.

To ensure that Police Mutual has access to external, professional financial and commercial advice Richard Coates, David Davies, John Giffard and Mike Urmston were all re-elected as Non-Executive Directors.

Other business carried out at the AGM included receiving the 2007 Annual Accounts, Report of the Committee of Management and Auditor’s Report, approving the 2007 Remuneration Report and re-appointing PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Society’s Auditor.
