Despite my urging that they should do so, ECGD
yot
have not referred the case to the Secretary of State.
I have therefore suggested to Hutton that he should
make enquiries of ECGD from his end, and I believe he
will do so.

Neither OPG nor I feel that we can go further to
challenge ECGD decision taken at Cotterill's level
without good evidence that ECGD's offer is in practice
likely to lose us significant business to our compet-
itors. On local costs it is only the Japanese who
are breaking ranks. But if there is firm evidence
that we are losing out, do plaase report it right
away, as I am sure you will. I think that it would be
tactically wise to put such evidence straight to
ECGD, with copies to CRE and OPG; and I will continue
to give what help I reasonably can.
