The future of our organization’s performance is secured and continuity will be maintained,” said Clive Broadley, CLECAT president, when he heard van der Jagt had accepted CLECAT’s offer.
   van der Jagt’s “understanding of shippers’ concerns and requirements will be ideal for CLECAT, which has always held an attentive and responsible attitude with regards to shippers’ issues,” said Heiner Rogge, CLECAT’s secretary general.
