our plans to the Hong Kong authorities by the end of April 1993 in order to obtain Building Ordinance approval. We c expect possession of the Colvin House site in: April 1993, and would then proceed to site clearance and enabling works in May 1993. We plan to go to tender for the foundation works in June 1993 and for the main works contract in February 1994. A number of British Companies have expressed great interest in tendering. OED would submit again about final tender lists, including the results of advertising in the EC Journal (as we are bound to do).
