FerrovialFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HistoryThe Company was founded by Rafael del Pino in 1952 as a railroad construction company called Ferrovial (Spanish for "railroad"). In June 1995, Ferrovial acquired 98.27% of Agromán,[1] another leading Spanish contractor. In April 2000, Ferrovial bought 58.5% of the Polish construction company Budimex Dromex S.A., which led to Budimex strengthening its position in the Polish market.[2] Budimex Dromex is now the biggest contractor (roads, buildings and pipe systems) in Poland. Ferrovial has now implemented a programme allowing Polish workers to work in Spain for at least a year to learn European standards. In April 2003, Ferrovial acquired Amey plc, a British contractor and major investor in Tube Lines, one of the two public-private partnership companies responsible for the maintenance of London Underground's lines and rolling stock.[3] In May 2003, Ferrovial acquired Belfast City Airport.[4] In June 2006, a Ferrovial-led consortium purchased the British company BAA Limited, for £10 billion.[5] BAA owns and operates seven British airports, including London Heathrow Airport, and operates or carries out retail management in several others. |

"The Irish legal profession is dominated by members of Knights of Saint
Columbanus, brother organization of Knights of Columbus, founded in
America and patronized by the Kennedy’s. The Columbanus themselves are
very closely aligned to the Spanish founded Opus Dei, whose members
also hold prominent positions in the Irish legal profession and are
senior economists throughout Europe and Latin America. The private
finance for the M3 comes from Spanish and Latin American banks. The
Chairman of Spanish contractors Ferrovial , Rafael del Pino, is a
member of Opus Dei; Ferrovial CEO of the M3 project, Enrique Díaz-Rato,
was educated and still closely associated with the Universidad de los
Andes in Chile, an institution founded as a corporate work of the
apostolate of Opus Dei; the chairman of the M3 Irish contractors, SIAC,
is UCD educated solicitor Ciaran Feighery. |

Opus Dei ...?
their Ireland HQ is at Lismullin Institute - and it is to avoid this that the path of the M3 is cutting the edge off Rath Lugh .... |

....... Ferrovial going bust ....? Ferrovial are the construction company involved with the M3 project - they also own BAA ( British Airports Authority ) - ie/ Heathrow , Stanstead etc and it seems they may have 22 billion quid debts - |

04.08.07 The value of BAA debt has deteriorated amid the turmoil in world credit markets, as investors fear that its Spanish owner, Ferrovial, has missed its chance to refinance the company's £9bn debt mountain, the Telegraph reports. It is thought the situation has been exacerbated by the relentless negative press coverage about Heathrow airport. BAA's bonds had traded at a premium since Ferrovial bought BAA in June last year, on hopes that it would buy back its existing bonds in order to raise new debt secured against future revenues. But yields on the bonds have widened by at least 30 basis points over the past couple of weeks, sending their price plummeting, as the credit markets crashed and the prospect of a refinancing looked increasingly unlikely .http://www.uk-airport-news.info/heathrow-airport-news-040807h.htm |
BAA 'misses its refinancing slot'

"Egregious Abuse" ...? This is another possibility. Sent to me today -Ferrovial is a memberof the UN Global Compact (http://www.unglobal They must not engage in systematic or egregious abuse - surely Tara is "Egregious Abuse", http://www.unglobal "Allegations of Systematic or Egregious Abuses" "Nevertheless, safeguarding the reputation, integrity and good efforts of the Global Compact and its participants requires transparent means to handle credible allegations of systematic or egregious abuse of the GC’s overall aims and principles." >From Ferrovial --- http://www.ferrovia The principles that underpin all Ferrovial activities are contained in the Code of Business Ethics and include: * Respect for the law: Ferrovial shall strictly comply with the laws in force in each country where they operate. * Ethical integrity: All Ferrovial activities shall be based on the principles of honesty, avoidance of corruption and respect for the circumstances and needs of all the parties and places involved. * Respect for human rights: All Ferrovial activities shall respect human rights and public liberties enshrined in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Ferrovial assumed the 10 principles of the Global Compact (www.globalcompact.
