Following the correction, the number of ceased unquoted securities was revised downward by 86 share rights, leaving the company with 7,552,317 share rights currently on issue.The company also disclosed a Change of Director's Interest Notice showing that Managing Director Graham Chipchase acquired 26 ordinary shares on-market at AU$19.91 per share through the Brambles MyShare Plan.
