Ethics

The company subscribes to the highest principles of integrity as prescribed in the King Code of Corporate Governance (King II) and the soon to be adopted King III report. Consequently, employees are required to commit to a policy on ethical behaviour. The company also endeavours to apply the same standards of behaviour to any party contracting with the company or any of its subsidiaries. Should any risk exist that parties contracting with the group do not uphold similar ethical standards then steps are taken to identify and mitigate such risks.

Keaton Energy‘s permanent staff complement is very small and all staff members have direct access to non-executive members of the Board. As a consequence and whilst there is no formal whistle-blowing process in place at this stage, the Board is committed to ensuring that no legitimate whistle-blower will be discriminated against.

Keaton Energy has not made any political or charitable donations, and no policy is in place to cover such donations. The Board will only consider this position once the operations are all cash flow positive.
