FURTHER TO MY UNNUMBERED TELEGRAM OF 13 JUNE 1986, MR. YAXLEY'S PROGRAMME IN ENGLAND IS STILL SUBJECT TO CONFIRMATION.
2. HOWEVER, REGARDLESS OF THE FINAL OUTCOME ON THAT, I SHOULD BE GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD ASK YOUR EXPERTS TO GIVE EARLY CONSIDERATIONS TO THE POINTS SET OUT IN MY TELEGRAM ON 9 JUNE 1986. WE ARE ESPECIALLY ANXIOUS TO HAVE YOUR FIRM INDICATIONS ON THE ADDITIONAL DATE YOU WOULD REQUIRE FOR PHASE TWO OF THE ACCIDENT ASSESSMENT STUDY, AS IT TAKES TIME TO COLLECT IT.
3. I AM ALSO INTERESTED TO KNOW WHAT IS THE PRESENT POSITION WITH REGARD TO THE STUDY ON CONTINGENCY PLANNING. WHILE THE CONSULTANCY AGREEMENT REQUIRES THAT A REPORT ON CONTINGENCY PLANNING SHOULD BE PROVIDED TO US WITHIN SIX MONTHS OF THE COMPLETION OF THE INITIAL ACCIDENT ASSESSMENT STUDY, HOWEVER, AS I MENTIONED IN PARA. 3 OF MY TELEGRAM OF 14 APRIL 1986, OUR DISCUSSIONS ON REPORT NO. 4 (ACCIDENT ASSESSMENT PHASE 1) MAY HAVE A BEARING ON THE CONTINGENCY PLANNING STUDY. THERE MAY HENCE BE NEED TO BE FLEXIBLE ABOUT THE TIME-TABLE STIPULATED IN THE AGREEMENT. IN ANY CASE, AWAIT YOUR ADVICE ON THIS.
