The statement begins with

“Dear colleagues,

We’re pleased to say the high level structure and most of the senior appointments for the combined company have now been agreed. Working together, we have followed a rigorous and objective selection process and are confident that in making the appointments we are populating the combined company with the best management talent while at the same time being fair to all those involved.

The purpose of this update is to explain the new structure and announce the proposed appointments so far. For completeness, we have included those roles that have already been announced. These changes will apply only when the deal is closed and we become one company. Until then, there is no change to the existing management structures in ntl and Telewest.

We are continuing to work on the planned structures for the combined company and expect to make further announcements about appointments in the coming weeks and months. ”
