We discussed the gas price policy, electric deregulation and the role that Enron has been playing and can play in all these matters. I pointed to him that Presidents Bush and Fox were geting together on February 16th and that President Fox has been declaring to the media that he will talk about a common energy policy with President Bush. We agreed that it would be useful for Secretary Martens to Meet with Dr. Lay before the Presidents meet. Fernando Alonso admitted to me today that Secretary Martens wanted to hear Mr. Lays opinion on this subject and perhaps recieve some advice with respect to talking points for President Fox with President Bush regarding energy policy. Secretary Marten's team(and now the Secretary himself) view Mr. Lay as an ideal communication link between the Mexican and the U.S. Governments for energy policy. This is the reason why the Secretary wants to meet with Mr. Lay before the 16th. Originally they had agreed on meeting on Feb. 12th at 9:00 a.m. Nevertheless, President Fox has asked that Secretary Martens to meet him in Mexico City on Monday the 12th which is why I got a call from Fernando Alonso asking if Mr. Lay could see Secretary Martens on Sunday the 11th between 3:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Secretary Martens has to be at a CERA dinner on Sunday at 7:00 p.m. Fernando Alonso, Dionisio Perez-Jacome, Undersecretary Niceforo Guerrero and myself will be meeting tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. to talk about electric deregulation. They are expecting an answer from me by then. Dionisio Perez-Jacome president of the CRE (FERC equivalent) is going to be in Houston on Monday the 12th. I would like you and Steve Kean to meet with him if you are going to be in town. I would also like to organize a tour for him that day. We'll talk about this tomorrow night when I see you. Thanks for your support. Ricardo
