Default clutch biting point

Is there a quick and easy way to adjust the clutch biting point ? The biting point on my car seems very short, I just have to touch the clutch pedal slightly and the clutch is disengaged.

This is not a problem and the clutch isn't slipping but I was just wondering if this could be the start of something a bit more serious or if it can be easily adjusted.

My car is a MY93 1.6GL with 144k on the clock, btw

If it is the same as the Hawkeye model, there is an adjuster between the pedal and the rod that runs through the firewall to the clutch master cylinder.
