The move came after Senard demanded representation on the committees in return for approving Nissan’s overhauled governance structure.
“Renault Group welcomes Nissan’s decision to grant Renault’s representatives a seat on the committees of the Nissan board which will be presented to the general shareholders’ meeting on June 25,” Renault said in a statement.
“The agreement reached on Renault’s presence in Nissan’s new governance confirms the spirit of dialogue and mutual respect that exists within the alliance,” Renault added.
Nissan, meanwhile, said it would nominate Yasushi Kimura, adviser at JXTG Holdings, to chair its board, the news agency report added.
