For what it's worth spoke to dean richardson at hdr after the rise on friday and all he would say was that negotiations with the French govt were continuing. I asked him about the deadline and he seemed so relaxed about it that he implied there wasn't any firm deadline (implied but did not say). Re the share rise he said he had no idea why it had happened. But there again he would wouldn't he.
