East Africa Airport Project Update 
 
Westminster Group Plc ('Westminster' or the 'Group'), the AIM listed supplier
of system solutions and products to the security, defence, fire protection and
safety markets worldwide, is pleased to provide an update on the East African
airport project, for which heads of terms were signed in November 2012. 
 
Representatives of Westminster, including CEO, Peter Fowler, have recently
held meetings and discussions with the country's Vice President and various
other Ministers involved with the East African airport project and further
meetings are now being organised to progress matters. 
 
Commenting on the project opportunity, Peter Fowler, Chief Executive of
Westminster Group, said: 
 
"The East African airport project has taken longer than anticipated to
finalise due to the government's internal processes and not due to any
complication with our negotiations. The project remains very much an active
opportunity within our growing pipeline of potential managed services
projects. 
 
"The timescales involved in negotiating projects differ in each case and are
not necessarily indicative of other contractual discussions we are involved
in.  I look forward to providing further project updates at the earliest
opportunity."
