You are free to leave the study at any time and there are no adverse consequences for any student who wants to withdraw from SHarPS. You may withdraw from the study by emailing the Research Team at . A member of the Team will then reply to you via email to confirm that we will no longer contact you with regard to participation in SHarPS. We would also need to ask what you would like us to do with the data you provided prior to your withdrawal. If you no longer want us to use these data, all the information you have provided would be removed from the SHarPS database. We would then send you an email to confirm that this has been done and that your data will therefore not be used in any future analyses. However, during SHarPS, we will continually be analysing participant data as SHarPS has the potential to answer a number of very important questions about the training of healthcare professionals. Our aim is to share this new knowledge through the publication of our analyses in reports and scientific papers (see FAQ 10 - What will happen to the information I have provided?). It is important you are aware that should data you provide to us have been formally analysed and published prior to the point of your withdrawal, it would be very difficult for us to remove your data from any such reports or papers. In all situations where we share results and findings, we stress that the information presented will be anonymised and therefore no individual participant will be able to be identified. 18. Who has reviewed the research? This research has been reviewed via the University of Birmingham ethical review process. Ref ERN_16_0600 Any Further Questions?

DT6: UK Prosperity and Civil Society The MOD define the detailed requirement for MDP services and capabilities. This will be driven by Departmental Security policy, the specific services and specialist capabilities contained within a Statement of Requirement for the MDP and the funding allocated to meet crime and security threats and risk. The MDP Chief Constable, after consultation with the Departmental Chief Security Officer and internal MOD customers/external customers from Other Government Departments (OGDs), will determine, via the tasking and complementing process, the operational MDP resources needed to deliver the requirement in the most efficient, effective and proportionate manner. The MOD does not seek to maintain a civil policing capability and capacity to meet every eventuality. In the event that the MDP is unable to fully meet a specific policing requirement the Department will look to the Chief Constable to resource this through a request for assistance from local Police Forces or national police agencies, accepting that this will be subject to local policing priorities. The MDP is also required to maintain an ability to work in partnership with local police forces during day to day operations or in response to terrorism, public order or other critical incidents. In addition to Defence requirements, the MOD has agreed the MDP may support US Visiting Forces, and other Government Departments and customers on a repayment basis where resources are available. 4. CHAIR OF THE MOD POLICE COMMITTEE Role and Responsibilities To lead the members and work of the committee to ensure effective oversight and governance of the MOD Police (MDP) and, on behalf of the Defence Secretary, to hold the Constable to account for delivering the Departmental mandate for the MOD Police; To demonstrate a clear appreciation of the MOD’s responsibility to set the strategic priorities and budget for the MOD Police, the operational independence of the Chief Constable, and the MOD Police Committee’s role to hold the Chief Constable to account; To meet regularly with the Chief Constable of the MOD Police and the senior team, to provide challenge and to act as a critical friend; To maintain contact as necessary with Ministers and with Senior Civil Service Members of the Committee , to provide an independent assessment of MDP, and to be prepared, if necessary, to challenge departmental policies and processes in the interests of securing effective and efficient policing by the MOD Police;

economics, controlling wars, controlling everything on the face of the earth. Epidemic could wipe out a population; but if you can’t bring it then you still have the same problem. Earthquake could wipe out a big city and kill hundreds of thousands at one time; but if you can’t bring a big earthquake, what will you do? Storms and meteorites will fall and depopulate cities, but you can’t bring down a meteorite, so what will you do? You have to find a way to kill. You have to find a way to kill because of the problem that is endangering you and your earth. “Woe, woe, woe to the inhabiters of the earth…and all these are the beginning of sorrows, nation devouring nation.”

TURN, among other parties, opposed adoption of a RA requirement at this time and opposed IEP’s proposal for the Commission to decide “as a matter of policy” the amount of RA capacity jurisdictional LSEs should procure 3 and 5 years forward. TURN supported IEP’s proposal for an annual report of forward capacity procurement in the interest of market transparency. The Commission did not adopt a multi-year requirement and rejected IEP’s proposal to address the substantive issues relating to such a requirement at this time. While the Commission did not adopt IEP’s forward capacity reporting requirement, it noted the Energy Division’s current efforts in this regard and encouraged continued monitoring and reporting.

PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA Legal Division San Francisco, California Date: January 11, 2018 Resolution No. L-560 R E S O L U T I O N RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING DISCLOSURE OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY’S SP-1101 QUALITY PLAN FOR PSEP FOR PIPELINE SAFETY ENHANCEMENT PLAN (“PSEP”) BACKGROUND The California Public Utilities Commission (“Commission”) received a Public Records Act (“PRA”) request seeking disclosure of Southern California Gas Company’s “SP-1101 Quality Plan for PSEP for Pipeline Safety Enhancement Plan,” or “PSEP”. Commission staff could not make the PSEP public without the formal approval of the full Commission. The PRA request is treated as an appeal to the full Commission for release of the requested record pursuant to Commission General Order (G.O.) 66C § 3.4. DISCUSSION The requested records are “public records” as defined by the California Public Records Act (“CPRA”). The California Constitution, the CPRA, and discovery law favor disclosure of public records. The public has a constitutional right to access most government information. Statutes, court rules, and other authority limiting access to information must be broadly construed if they further the people’s right of access, and narrowly construed if they limit the right of access. New statutes, court rules, or other authority that limit the right of access must be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need to protect that interest. The CPRA provides that an agency must base a decision to withhold a public record in response to a CPRA request upon the specified exemptions listed in the CPRA, or a showing that, on the facts of a particular case, the public interest in confidentiality clearly outweighs the public interest in disclosure. The Commission has exercised its discretion under Cal. Pub. Util. Code § 583, and implemented its responsibility under Cal. Gov’t. Code § 6253.4(a), by adopting guidelines for public access to Commission records. These guidelines are embodied in G.O. 66-C. General Order 66-C § 1.1 provides that Commission records are public, except “as otherwise excluded by this General Order, statute, or other order, decision, or rule.” General Order 66-C § 2.2 precludes Commission staff’s disclosure of “[r]ecords or
revenue allocation, and rate design for Commission Consideration. In UCAN’s examination of the issues presented we focused on rate design and revenue allocation issues. UCAN’s experts, William Marcus and Garrick Jones from JBS energy produced detailed and extensive testimony covering these topics. (See Exhibits UCAN -01, UCAN -02 and UCAN -03) After a thorough examination, UCAN supported the revenue allocation settlement, which was adopted by the Commission, and we urged rejection of the SDG&E/San Diego Public Schools settlement, which was not adopted by the Commission. reflect the changing energy market, including a later on-peak period and a spring super-off-peak period, while affirming the grandfathering provisions for eligible solar customers previously established by the California Public Utilities Commission and extending the Eligibility Grace Period for schools. D.17-08-030, p. 2 Revenue Allocation Settlement. In this proceeding, over the course of 2 months and 10 settlement discussions, seven parties presented a settlement proposal on revenue allocation. UCAN was a signatory to the San Diego Gas & Electric Company (“SDG&E”), the Office of Ratepayer Advocates (“ORA”), the Utility Consumers’ Action Network (“UCAN”), the California Farm Bureau Federation (“Farm Bureau”), the Federal Executive Agencies (“FEA”), the City of San Diego (“City of San Diego”) and the California City-County Street Light Association (“CAL-SLA”) (referenced to hereinafter collectively as “Settling Parties” or individually as “Party”) respectfully request that the Commission adopt and find reasonable the Revenue Allocation Settlement Agreement Verified

wished to use the AFLQ rather than the FLQ, then a slightly higher value of δ would need to be chosen at the outset. It is evident that both approaches reviewed here have merits and demerits, which should be borne in mind when deciding which one to pursue. One should also be aware that, with Bonfiglio’s method, the estimated δ declines with regional size, whereas Flegg and Tohmo’s method exhibits a positive relationship between δ and regional size. 9 USE OF INTERMEDIATE INPUTS All LQ-based methods assume identical regional and national technology, i.e. that national and regional firms use the same proportions of different inputs to produce a given commodity. Unfortunately, this assumption cannot be tested directly with the data available here because each sector’s imports from other regions are not disaggregated by type of input. Instead, we shall test the assumption that Córdoba and Argentina use the same mix of intermediate and primary inputs. Primary inputs include value added and imports from abroad. Value added refers to the income of capital and labour. The following regression was formulated to test the hypothesis that Córdoba and Argentina used the same mix of intermediate and primary inputs in 2003: Ijr = α + βIjn + εjr (29) where Ijr is a survey-based estimate of the proportion of intermediate inputs (including inputs imported from other Argentinian regions) used by sector j in Córdoba, Ijn is the corresponding proportion of intermediate inputs for Argentina, and εjr is a random error term. The following result was obtained (n = 28): (30) Standard errors: 0.0508 0.1188 R2 = 0.595. This regression gives some grounds for rejecting the null hypotheses α = 0 and β = 1; in
