SUBJECT: Re: Planned activities of The Core in Sigma-15 system

Guten Tag, Sehr geehrte Frau Hawken.

I apologize for the delay, there were urgent matters which required attention of the Rheinland government.

Your requests were discussed by the government and submitted for voting to the Bundestag, but both were rejected by its members. Opinions which were stated there mainly claimed that according to Bundesrepublik´s claim, Sigma-15 is considered as Rheinland space in its entirety and thus creating any "enclave" around Omicron Rho jumphole is not in the interest of the Bundesrepublik Rheinland. Also, if The Core desires to improve security at this access point, it can create border station on its side of the hole in the Omicron Rho which is its territory. Alternatively, The Core is still free to apply for permission to construct POB class station in the desired area through respective registry what can be considered as compromise for both sides.

Mit Freundlichen Grüßen,

Laura Caspers
