Reporting and assurance of our ESG metrics
ESG principles are embedded throughout the business and we recognise the importance of delivering against our ESG priorities and commitments. We therefore also recognise the importance of the accuracy and completeness of our ESG disclosures. In addition to our own internal processes and governance, for a number of years we have received limited assurance over our carbon and energy data from The Carbon Trust, as can be seen within our Annual Report and Accounts. This year we have expanded the number and range of ESG metrics subject to assurance procedures by additionally seeking assurance on other strategic ESG metrics.

I accept and agree for and on behalf of myself and the entity I represent (each a "recipient") that:
- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) accepts no liability (including liability for negligence) to each recipient in relation to PwC’s report. The report is provided to each recipient for information purposes only. If a recipient relies on PwC’s report, it does so entirely at its own risk;
- No recipient will bring a claim against PwC which relates to the access to the report by a recipient;
- Neither PwC’s report, nor information obtained from it, may be made available to anyone else without PwC’s prior written consent, except where required by law or regulation;
- PwC’s report was prepared with Taylor Wimpey plc's interests in mind. It was not prepared with any recipient's interests in mind or for its use. PwC’s report is not a substitute for any enquiries that a recipient should make. PwC’s assurance report is based on historical information. Any projection of such information or PwC’s opinion thereon to future periods is subject to the risk that changes may occur after the report is issued. For these reasons, such projection of information to future periods would be inappropriate;
- Any explanations that PwC may provide to any recipient in relation to the report are given on the same bases as those relating to the provision of the report itself;
- PwC will be entitled to the benefit of and to enforce these terms; and
- These terms and any dispute arising from them, whether contractual or non-contractual, are subject to English law and the exclusive jurisdiction of English courts.
