The ICC’s independent governance review, headed by Lord Woolf, had recommended sweeping changes in ICC’s administration and the functioning of its governing body.

The Wolf Report recommended a restructuring of the ICC’s executive board to make it more independent.

It has also called for measures to increase transparency in dealings by the ICC and its members.
