Allegations of corruption, over zealous lobbying of British ministers and government departments, sanction breaking and incompetence it has not been a good year for UK's largest arms manufacturer.


All the more reason for you to attend their Annual General Meeting on 29th April 2003 at Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in London and question the BAE Systems board about their business and ethics.

JOIN US AS A 'TOKEN' SHAREHOLDER, A PROTESTER OUTSIDE, OR OTHER ACTION PLANNED FOR AROUND THE DAYS. (see elswhere on Indymedia).

If you would like to attend and do not have a share in the company, contact Martin to sort out a share transfer for you. Current shareholders can help by informing Martin as soon as possible of their intentions to attend or not. Remember, if you cannot make the AGM, others can attend as your proxy so it is vital to make contact.


One aspect of the CAAT attendance at the AGM has declined over the past few years: the outside protest and public awareness exercises that take place before, during and after the AGM. We very much want to change this and have targeted this for special consideration in 2003. If you would like to get involved in this exciting project please, once again, contact Martin.

CAAT produce a BAE Systems Alternative Annual Report which we distribute to non-CAAT shareholders and journalists. Order a copy of this years Report and have the facts of the past twelve months trading reviewed from the CAAT perspective.
