I'm comfortable, so long as Rick and Paul are as well. Best, Jeff Paul Dawson/Enron@EUEnronXGate 06/26/2001 04:01 AM To: Paul Kaufman/ENRON@enronXgate, Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Mark Schroeder/ENRON@enronXgate, Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron Subject: RE: UK Government secundee to Enron? As Mark mentioned, I would recommend Edward Barker. He is closely involved in NETA and has a good understanding of power and gas markets. I also wouldn't be concerned about whether CA is relevant - it is a major issue here and on the Continent as the EU states begin to look at security of supply and how they can avoid "doing a California". Edward is sufficiently bright and discerning to recognise any evidence he picks up in CA for what it is. Based on the exchange of correspondence below, I will get back to Ian Fletcher and ask for Edward's CV etc and indicate that we would be prepared to consider a role in San Francisco (with some flexibility). Please confirm that you are happy for me to progress this further with the DTI.

You should also ask Ian for a copy of his CV. thanks mcs -----Original Message----- From: Shapiro, Richard Sent: 25 June 2001 15:09 To: Schroeder, Mark Subject: RE: UK Government secundee to Enron? ---------------------- Forwarded by Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron on 06/25/2001 03:08 PM --------------------------- From: Paul Kaufman/ENRON@enronXgate on 06/25/2001 02:59 PM To: Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron, Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Subject: RE: UK Government secundee to Enron? I'd like to see his resume. I don't know that California work will be particularly informative--given the uniqueness of that great state, but we no doubt can find a use for his skills. I would want to see his CV. It would be a nonstarter for me if he was unwilling to travel to SFO or Portland on regular basis. However, the travel could be 3-4 days a week--i.e., he could travel up on Monday and go home on Thursday. (Or some other such schedule). -----Original Message----- From: Shapiro, Richard Sent: Monday, June 25, 2001 11:29 AM To: Dasovich, Jeff; Kaufman, Paul Cc: Dawson, Paul; Mark Schroeder/Enron@ENRON Subject: UK Government secundee to Enron? What do you think? ---------------------- Forwarded by Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron on 06/25/2001 01:25 PM --------------------------- From: Mark Schroeder/ENRON@enronXgate on 06/25/2001 01:22 PM To: Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Paul Dawson/Enron@EUEnronXGate Subject: UK Government secundee to Enron? Rick - I just got a call from Ian Fletcher, head of the Utilities Regulation unit at the UK Department of Trade and Industry. He reports to Anna Walker, the Director General of Energy at the DTI. Ian also knows Paul, and I am sure that he only called me because he now knew of my US location. Anyway, here is what he asked: They have a highly regarded junior civil servant, Edward Barker (Paul and I have both met him, and rate him high), who is getting married, and wants to locate to Los Angeles for a year while his fiance/wife completes a Ph.D. at some school there. The UK DTI will keep paying him, so he is effectively free to us. They want a relevant job/work experience for him. Ian does not know about his willingness to commute during the week from San Francisco to LA (I told Ian we were receptive to these kinds of things, if all else worked out), but will check. I think it would be good for Enron (Paul D. may have views on this), not only for endearing Enron to key relationships at DTI, but exposing a UK civil servant to the transparency of our regulation, US-style, cannot hurt either, as that is something Paul is on a long march to improve in the UK. I would think challenging research, attendance at settlement conferences, some memo writing, etc. would be sufficient (actually, that would be a bit below the policy-formation role he now occupies), but do you have any thoughts? I can get his CV when you need it. thanks mcs
