We hope this will enable you to reserve the accommodation in good time. We have also made the reservation for the return flight on 20 November.

In accordance with Article 7 we are attaching the list of the participants (Page 2). Please send us your official invitation to support our visas at the British Embassy.

Please also send us the time-table of the Programme showing the exact topics of the classroom sessions and the dates of external visits. It will enable the participants to plan the dates of their own business visits about which we spoke in Moscow.

As to the Group Leader we are proposing Mr. Lvov. You must know him. He has been to London a few times with similar groups. He speaks English fluently and knows his business inside out. We are sure he will be of great help.

If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

Faithfully yours,

Pete Smirnov

General Director

David Hill sends the official invitation for the group by fax the next day. Then all the participants fill in the questionnaires and attach two photos to every questionnaire. The secretary takes all these materials and the invitation and hands in all the papers to the Embassy to get visas. In a few days the visas are ready.
