[11012] This is Colin Biggers & Paisley's third statement under the Modern Slavery Act
[13357] The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on international supply chains (such as commodity shortages, business closures, and economic downturn) is widely known
[13357] However, the nature and extent of such impacts directly influencing potential slavery and trafficking practices is many organisations supply chains are less apparent particularly beyond Tier1/direct suppliers
[13357] Limitations on international travel over the majority of FY22 undermined the ability to assess first hand conditions at manufacturing facilities within our supply chain
[13357] We are pleased to have been able to resume travel to key suppliers in FY23
[13357] This proved to be a significant measure for us
[13357] throughout the year as it enabled us to circumvent involvement with a supplier who did not meet our health and safety standards, as outlined earlier in this statement

[13428] The joint venture operates via an operator - the Bengaila Minihg Company Pty Ltd (BMC) - a thermal coal mine, located in the Hunter Valley region of New South Wales
[13428] Supply Chains In broad terms Taipower Bengallas procurement expenditure is dominated by the source of major procurement items including diesel fuel; mining equipment, parts and tyres; port and rail access; and mining explosives
[13428] This is typically procured by BMC on behalf of the BJV
[13428] A smaller percentage of overall expenditure is applied to the sourcing of a multitude of other goods and services relevant to our activities, considered to be minor procurement items
[13428] These include supply of consumables; logistics; utilities; labour hire; cleaning; consultancy; and technical services
[13428] How we see the risks of modern slavery practices in our operations and supply chains The major procurement items mentioned in the previous section are procured from a small number of relatively large suppliers
[14055] Our Employees
[14055] All employees who work for Sanofi Australia have their work rights as well as their work history verified as a condition of employment
[14055] Regular audits are made of employees who have only a temporary right to remain in Australia
[14055] Sanofi Australia complies with all applicable legislative requirements and employment standards relating to the payment of minimum wages
[14055] We believe that the risk of modern slavery in our directly employed workforce is low
[14055] Our Suppliers
[14055] Supplier selection
[14055] Sanofi Australia conducts due diligence on its suppliers where it considers there may be risk in line with its global Ethics & Business Integrity and other Risk Management directives
[4490] Our commitment to training We are committed to ensuring our employees have a good understanding and respect for how their choices can have far-reaching impacts upon basic human rights across the globe
[4490] We have made the resources provided by Anti-Slavery Australia available to our employees through our intranet
[4490] All VEI employees are provided with employee contracts and referred to VEIs Employee Handbook, which outlines VEI key policies
[4490] All VEIs healthcare workers are employed under Modern Awards or Enterprise Bargaining Agreements and salaries of staff are regularly reviewed to ensure they are in line with market conditions
[4490] A high proportion of VEIs workforce are qualified clinical professionals and are accustomed to complying with professional conduct reflecting the highest ethical standards
[4490] Operations at VEIs various sites are overseen by these professionals
[4490] Next Steps The VEI Risk Management Committee will be conducting a scoping exercise involving reviewing VEIs direct supply chain and undertaking a risk assessment of suppliers located in countries commonly known to be at higher risk for modern slavery and in high risk industries or sectors
[4490] If any modern slavery associated issues are identified, VEI will take action to resolve the issue with the supplier or if necessary, determining a treatment strategy by potentially identifying an alternative new supplier

[11012] We support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights and endeavour to ensure Colin Biggers & Paisley is not complicit in human rights abuses

[11012] ABOUT COLIN BIGGERS & PAISLEY 2 3
[11012] OUR OPERATIONS
[11012] AND SUPPLY CHAIN Colin Biggers & Paisley's principal activity is the provision of legal services to our clients
[11012] Colin Biggers & Paisley Limited, as the only entity with employees, employs 500 professional staff who work from offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane
[11012] Our greatest expenditure remains remuneration
[13428] All of these suppliers are Australian entities, although some form part of larger multinational groups
[13428] For the most part, these organisations have sophisticated supply chain policies and procedures in place
[13428] However, these organisations tend to have long supply chains in multiple countries, and we acknowledge that modern slavery risk can be present further up these supply chains
[13428] We expect increasing visibility into the actions taken by these suppliers as they move to report in accordance with the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act lOlQ (Cth)
[13428] The minor procurement items mentioned in the previous section are procured from a large number (many hundreds) of different suppliers which range from large organisations to small family 1
[13428] businesses
[13428] Many of these suppliers are local providers based close to the joint venture operations
[13428] In general, these suppliers operate wholly within Australia under Australian laws, and do not tend to have as extensive supply chains as the suppliers of major procurement items
[14055] The standard Request for Proposals/Tenders used by Sanofi Australia includes questions directed at assessing the risk of modern slavery in the prospective suppliers operations and the capacity to comply with the requirements of Australian legislation
[14055] Sanofi Australia continually looks for new ways to further improve its vendor selection processes
[14055] This is an ongoing area of focus
[14055] Existing suppliers
[14055] In 2022, Sanofi Australia continued to use ethiXbase to assess and address the risk of modern slavery in its supply chain
[14055] Through the use of ethiXbase and its questionnaire, Sanofi Australia is continuing its efforts to understand the risk profile of each of our
[14055] /6 suppliers which, in turn, informs its decision on which suppliers it should seek to better understand their business operations and practices based on the risk rating system generated by the tool
[4490] We will continue to identify and evaluate risks relating to human rights and develop our policies, procedures, and training to help combat modern slavery
[4490] Statement This Modern Slavery Statement is made pursuant to the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth) for Vision Eye Institute Limited (A.C.N
[4490] 890 816) and relates to the financial year ended 31 December 2020
