LEBC's McVitie temporarily steps down over health issues

McVitie (pictured) is currently undergoing medical treatment and has been advised by his doctors to take time off work to aid his recuperation, a spokesman for the business confirmed. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has been informed of his leave of absence and LEBC has requested McVitie's senior manager function be suspended. His responsibilities will be shared among other members of the senior management team until he is able to return. The LEBC Holdings Board and all of McVitie's colleagues have sent him their best wishes for a speedy recovery.
