Lindsay Nicholson, editor in chief of Good Housekeeping magazine, and Harriet Wilson, director of editorial administration and rights at Condé Nast, are joining the Editors’ Code of Practice Committee.
They were nominated by the Periodical Publishers Association to replace Tom Loxley, following his departure from Maxim magazine, and James Bishop, of Illustrated London News, who is standing down after nearly nine years on the Code committee.
Code committee chairman Les Hinton, executive chairman of News International, said: “Both Lindsay Nicholson and Harriet Wilson bring with them substantial and invaluable experience in the magazine field and I am very pleased to welcome them to the committee.
