IF MEETING ON 5 FEBRUARY DECIDES IN PRINCIPLE TO AWARD CONTRACT FOR THE ROLLING STOCK TO METROCAM AND IF MTRC HAVE ANY DISCRETION ON
THE TIMING AND MANNER OF MAKING PUBLIC THEIR DECISION WE WOULD HOPE THAT PUBLICATION (COUPLED POSSIBLE WITH AN ANNOUNCMENT ON KCR CONTRACT) COULD BE SO HANDLED AS TO HAVE MAXIMUM POSITIVE EFFECT FOR
VARLEY VISIT. PLEASE DISCUSS WITH LOCAL AUTHORITIES AND OTHERS
AFFECTED. SEEN FROM HERE, CONSIDERATIONS INCLUDE METROCAM'S NEGOTIA- TING POSITION ON THE ACTUAL CONTRACTS, THE PROBABLE FAVOURABLE IMPACT ON UK MEDIA IF MR VARLEY'S VISIT PRODUCES A CONCRETE RESULT AND
LOCAL REACTIONS.
