The Corporate Responsibility Committee provides a Board-level forum for the review of external issues that could potentially impact upon our business and reputation. The committee is also responsible for overseeing our worldwide charitable donations and community support. The committee consists of Independent Non-Executive Directors and the Chairman.

GSK issues an annual Corporate Responsibility Report and the Corporate Responsibility Committee's latest summary is included in our 2011 Annual Report.
