The CBI is battling to secure its future following a series of sexual harassment allegations, which first emerged in March. Members will be asked whether its plan for renewal is enough to give them confidence in the CBI, a vote which will determine the future path of the once-influential group. Brian McBride, the CBI’s president, said on Monday that the outcome of the critical vote is not a “given”. Former CBI head Tony Danker was dismissed on April 11 following complaints made against him, including one sexual harassment claim. Mr Danker told the BBC his name had been wrongly associated with separate claims, including the alleged rapes which reportedly happened before he joined the CBI.
