NHS Partners Network

NHS Partners Network (NHSPN) represents independent healthcare providers delivering NHS services and is one of the networks belonging to the NHS Confederation, an independent membership body for the full range of organisations that make up the National Health Service.
NHSPN says it is committed to "creating an environment, politically and with the public, where independent sector providers are able to become a fully integrated part of a mixed economy NHS." It argues that "full integration of independent sector providers will lead to more choice and better value for money for patients, taxpayers and shareholders."
==Lobbying==
According to a Unison document in 2008:
:"The Network works to raise the profile of independent NHS healthcare providers and to build greater understanding of and support for the role they play in the NHS”, it says. When a leaked report from the Healthcare Commission aroused concerns about quality standards in ISTCs the Network “was able to exert influence to ensure that the final version was a fairer representation”. The NHSPN also worked closely with the CBI on its report on ISTCs and “contributed to the editorial process to ensure that the tone and presentation of the report was as helpful as possible”. The Network meets on a regular basis with ministers, advisors and civil servants in the Department of Health, as well as with opposition politicians.Unison, The rise of the “public services industry” (Pdf), September 2008

NIA Programme Management Board

==Background==
The Programme Management Board was set up in 2011 by the nuclear industry and the UK government to try to prevent their plans for eight new nuclear stations from going off the rails.
The board was the brainchild of the Nuclear Industry Association (NIA), which represents nuclear companies in the UK. It brings the French firms, EDF Energy and Areva, the US giant, Westinghouse, and other companies together with the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) and the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS). It also includes the Office for Nuclear Regulation, the government’s safety watchdog.
According to energy minister Charles Hendry, its aim was to facilitate the nuclear power programme by “removing unnecessary barriers and risk”. Minutes of its first meeting in November 2011, and related correspondence, were released by the DECC under Freedom of Information laws.

NNB GenCo

NNB GenCo Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of EDF Energy. 
It was originally jointly owned with Centrica in a joint venture NNB Holding Company, set up after the two firms bought British Energy in June 2009 to build and operate four new nuclear power stations. EDF Energy, 'EDF Energy Nuclear Generation: Our journey towards zero harm', undated, accessed 29 August 2012 EDF, Centrica spend $300 million on new UK reactor program, Platts 25th October 2010, accessed August 2012. NNB Generation Company Ltd, Company Document, Hinkley Point C, Management Prospectus, accessed 29 August 2012 
NNB GenCo has sole responsibility for licensed activity related to the design, construction, operation and eventual commissioning of UK EPRs. 
Its proclaimed mission is: 'Leading the way in building a fleet of safe, reliable nuclear power stations without costing the earth.' NNB GENERATION COMPANY LIMITED COMPANY DOCUMENT, acc 23 October 2013 
==Hinkley Point C==
In July 2010 NNB GenCo started a formal pre-application process for the authorisation of the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station. In December 2010 campaigners accused its owner EDF Energy of ‘jumping the gun’ by applying for planning permission for what it called ‘preliminary works’. This involved trashing over 400 acres of woodland, cornfields and coastline, and the excavation of more than 3.2 million cubic metres of soil, sub-soil and rocks - more than was dug out to prepare the site for the 2012 London Olympic Games. EDF “Jumping The Gun” with Hinkley Point destruction, Stop Hinkley Press Release 1 December 2010, accessed August 2012 EDF Energy was given the go ahead for the preliminary works in July 2011. Hinkley C nuclear power station gets green light for preparatory work, Guardian 29 July 2011, accessed August 2012.
EDF Energy had been expected to submit its application to the Infrastructure Planning Commission (IPC) in December 2010, but in the end this wasn’t submitted until the last day of October 2011. Walker, A. Project progress analysis as Hinkley Point application made, Planning Act 2008 Blog, No.291, 2 November 2011, accessed August 2012 Local people who attended the preliminary hearing of the IPC into the EDF Energy application were shocked at the limited scope of the inquiry and the attitude of the lead commissioner. When one local resident asked who would look at the dangers of nuclear power and the impact on the health of local children, she was told the point was irrelevant and her microphone was turned off.

Nachman Shai

Nachman Shai is a former head of the IDF Spokesperson's Unit of the Israel Defence Forces. He was elected to the Knesset for Kadima in 2009.Nachman Shai, Knesset, acessed 26 July 2012.
Amotz Asa-El wrote in the Jerusalem Post of Shai's time as IDF spokesperson:
::THE IDF Spokesman's Office was usually led by an intelligence officer, until the appointment of Nachman Shai in 1989. A veteran defense reporter for Israel TV, Shai brought an acquaintance with the military, a thorough understanding of journalism and experience with the foreign media earned as a press attache in Washington. This profile proved itself during the first Gulf War as ideal for the position of IDF spokesman, so much so that people wondered why the army had always understood that its OC Medical Corps had to be a doctor and that the air force commander had to be a pilot, but could not understand that its spokesman had to be a journalist. Amotz Asa-El, Middle Israel: The IDF's PR: What went wrong?, Jerusalem Post, 15 February 2007.
In July 2012, there was speculation that Shai would join Likud following after Kadima leader Shaul Mofaz withdrew from Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition government.Gill Hoffman, Right, Left to intensify efforts to carve up Kadima, Jerusalem Post, 24 July 2012.

Nadav Argaman

Nadav Argaman is the deputy head of Israel's Shin Bet security agency as of 2013, according to Richard Silverstein.Richard Silverstein, Deputy Shin Bet, WMD Chiefs Named (and Their Favorite Beverages), Tikun Olam, 13 March 2013.
in an apparent reference to Argaman, Silverstein states:
::A separate Haaretz article (Hebrew) mentions that Yoram Cohen (Shabak chief) has called “N.” back from a U.S. assignment. He’s described as just having completed a tour as the “counselor” in Israel’s UN mission. More specifically, Haaretz described his U.S. role as “chief of the North America security center.” He’s also in his 50s and served in the élite Sayeret Matkal (Special Forces commandos). He spent his entire Shabak career in “operations,” which includes apprehending terrorists. He has had relatively little experience with interrogations, “running” agents and counter terror.Richard Silverstein, Deputy Shin Bet, WMD Chiefs Named (and Their Favorite Beverages), Tikun Olam, 13 March 2013.
Argaman is listed as a counsellor at the Israeli mission to the United Nations in New York in a UN publication from March 2010.Permanent Missions to the United Nations, United Nations, March 2010, archived at Google Books.
