relationships at technical and administrative levels with the
numerous people and organisations with a role to play in placing of
contracts and orders. Appointment of a suitably qualified consultant
with major project experience and an understanding of the value of
PEPS role on the Channel-Fixed Link project will help to establish
both credibility and the necessary initial working relationships upon
which the success of the exercise will depend.
British Trade Commission (BTC) in Hong Kong have underlined that
there is insufficient interest being shown by UK companies in the
project. For both economic and political reasons they consider it
important to address this problem and to ensure greater UK
participation. However BTC have neither the resources or the skills
to mount the major effort needed to achieve the desired result. The
existing resources of PEP1 are already extended, particularly
following the changes in the Eastern Bloc, but PEP1 can accommodate
the work programme proposed subject to the additional resource
recommended.
