During the 2005/06 financial year, respect for our Global Compact Charter and the communication of its principles to our business partners and our stakeholders are an integral part of our Sustainable Development policy and remain our major priority.

This 2005/06 Progress Report summarizes our sustainable development actions based on six major commitments.

These actions will be the subject of our annual Sustainable Development report, which will be available at the end of July 2006.
