2. BIS requested a Pre-license Check (PLC) at Bhabha Atomic Research
Centre (BARC),Indian Department of Atomic Energy, website:
www.barc.ernet.in. BARC was listed as the Ultimate Consignee and
Horiba Jobin Yvon SAS, Z.I., France as the Foreign Purchaser and
Intermediate Consignee for one Model Fluoromax Spectrofluorometer
controlled under ECCN 3A999. The license applicant was Horiba Jobin
Yvon (Horiba),Edison, NJ. In December 2006, BIS New Delhi closed
this PLC with a finding of unfavorable (cable: NEW DELHI 08185).
3. On August 10, 2007, ECO sent a formal request to Under Secretary
Prashant Agrawal (Agrawal),GOI Ministry of External Affairs (MEA)
to arrange subject PLC at BARC.
On August 16, 2007, Agrawal emailed ECO requesting clarification of
this re-issued PLC stating that in October 2006, he had advised ECO
Michael Rufe that the order had been cancelled by BARC. On August
21, 2007, ECO asked MEA to confirm that BARC cancelled this order
and then provide this confirmation to ECO in writing. On September
7, 2007, FSN Narayan emailed MEA requesting an update on the status
of this check. On September 8, 2007, Agrawal commenced an academic
sabbatical and was replaced by Under Secretary Randhir Jaiswal.
4. On September 21, 2007, FSN Narayan called Jaiswal to follow up on
this PLC. Jaiswal stated that BARC had cancelled the order placed
with Horiba Johin Yvon SAS, France. Narayan requested this
information in written form. Jaiswal immediately responded via
email.
5. Jaiswal's email: "This is to confirm that Purchase Order No-
DPS/04/IEE/18493/PO/178766/FE dated 20.07.2006 placed on M/S Horiba
Jobin Yvon SAS, France for supply of Compact Spectronfluorometer to
