OUR refutes editorial claim

THE EDITOR, Sir:

I write in response to your editorial of Thursday, February 9, 2012, which states in part that "the Office of Utilities Regulation has put out a request to tender for liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage, regasification and distribution facilities".

I advise that the Office of Utilities Regulation (OUR) is not in charge of this process and, therefore, did not at any time put out any tender request for such facilities.

Please make this information available to your readers in order to remove any misconceptions which may have arisen.
