Report of the Supervisory Board
Meetings
The Supervisory Board held eight meetings during 2016. Six were plenary sessions with the full Executive Committee present for all or part of the meetings. The Board of Management attended all eight meetings, while two meetings were held without the full Executive Committee present. Almost all plenary sessions of the Supervisory Board were preceded or succeeded by an executive session of the Supervisory Board, with the CEO in attendance. The Supervisory Board also regularly held executive sessions without the CEO present. An attendance overview of the meetings of the Supervisory Board and its committees can be seen on this page.

The Supervisory Board, accompanied by members of the Board of Management and Executive Committee, visited the company’s new Decorative Paints site in Ashington, UK, in September.
Supervisory Board attendance record
The table below provides an overview of the attendance record of the individual members of the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board attaches great value to the attendance of its meetings by each Supervisory Board member. However, if Supervisory Board members are unable to attend a Supervisory Board or committee meeting, they inform the relevant Chairman, stating the reason. They also have the opportunity to discuss any agenda items with the responsible Chairman. Attendance is expressed as the number of meetings attended out of the number eligible to attend.
