Manduca to step down as Morrisons audit committee chair

Morrisons audit committee chairman Paul Manduca will step down from the supermarket's board on 10 March 2011.

Manduca has worked as a non-executive at the company for five years.

"He is a dedicated and diligent non-executive director who has, during his tenure, chaired both the audit and remuneration committees, led the process for selection of chairman, and played a significant role in recruiting our CEO," said chairman sir Ian Gibson.

"The board is deeply indebted to Paul for the enormous contribution he has made over the past five years to the stabilisation and consequent success of the group."

A replacement for Manduca has yet to be identified.
