This is not a government contract with a private company, but a
contract between two private companies, where one charges the other to
do its work.

Yes, so the only difference is that in one case it's the Government
letting the contract, and in the other it's a multinational quasi-public
sector company that's letting the contract.

The management contract is between Eurostar (UK) Ltd (EUKL) and
Intercapital and Regional Railways Ltd (ICRR). EUKL is 100% owned by
L&CR. In how far is EUKL a "multinational quasi-public sector
company"?


Cheers,
