APPENDIX 3
Letter to the Clerk of the Committee from
Mr John Loughhead, Vice President, Technology, Alstom UK Ltd
Thank you for your letter of 15 December 1998
regarding the above enquiry and the Memorandum we submitted in
March.
We do not wish to offer supplementary information
to that already submitted. However, it may be worthwhile noting
that the name and status of our company has changed following
our flotation in June last year. We are now a French registered
company called ALSTOM and have acquired the electrical contracting
and process control businesses of Cegelec. The company now employs
over 110,000 people and has a turnover of around £10 billion.
As the Committee may wish to be aware of that I attach a revised
introductory paragraph to the original Memorandum. (See Annex).
Thank you for giving us this opportunity and
I look forward to the conclusions of the enquiry.
4 January 1998
