The UKEB Chair, Pauline Wallace, said:

“It has been my privilege to serve as the UKEB’s interim Chair and to lead it through a successful inaugural year. As permanent Chair I look forward to working with the Board and all of our stakeholders to continue to build upon the solid foundations that we put in place in 2021/22.
