1. THE SIXTH COMPANY TO PRE-QUALIFY FOR THE ADVANCED WORKS CONTRACT IS NISHIMATSU OF JAPAN. WORD AMONG THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY HERE IS THAT ALL THE PRE-QUALIFIERS ARE WORTHY EXCEPT CHINA HARBOUR WHO MUST HAVE BEEN FAVOURED FOR POLITICAL REASONS. IF SO IT SEEMS A PITY THAT POLITICAL REASONS COULD NOT HAVE SEEN SPACE FOR BEAZER AS WELL WHICH WOULD HAVE GIVEN THE UK TWO PRE- QUALIFIERS, TO EQUAL THE TWO FROM JAPAN.
