Shell 15 page confidential statement about OSSL allegations
By John Donovan
I have provided a link to a 15 page document dated 3 October 2014, which Shell supplied to OSSL, the Irish company that has made serious allegations against Shell.
The information in the document may be of interest to some readers who have followed the long running saga and likewise newspapers and TV and radio stations who have covered the story.
As will be seen, Shell repeatedly states that OSSL has demanded money from them when all claims by OSSL against Shell have, according to Shell, already been settled.
Shell has provided the most comprehensive statement of events that I have seen thus far.
It includes Shell transcripts of discussions between Mr Desmond Kane of OSSL and top people at Shell, including Peter Voser, Ben van Beurden and Jorma Ollila at Royal Dutch Shell AGM’s held in 2013 and 2014.
As can also be seen, Shell is still withholding information – this time on the grounds of legal privilege.
So has the saga come to an end? Were the corruption allegations unfounded?
No, on the contrary, the allegations are factual and the story will soon become even more interesting.
Michiel Brandjes a key executive at Royal Dutch Shell
By John Donovan
On 12 October 2014, The Sunday Times Business Section published a front page article about the departure of Jonathan Lloyd, the company secretary of Tesco:
His position at Tesco seems to have been identical to MIchiel Brandjes, the Company Secretary and General Counsel Corporate of Royal Dutch Shell Plc.
“…Lloyd was listed as part of the board on Tesco’s website…” He advised the board on legal and governance issues.
Brandjes is listed as part of the board of Royal Dutch Shell Plc on shell.com. He advises the board on legal and governance issues.
Lloyd is described by The Sunday Times as a key senior executive.
It follows that the same applies to Mr Brandjes, who is approaching retirement.
