Private sector

To support them, therefore, immense activities are prompted both in pubh c private sectors with increasing importance on NDT. The particular application of radiography using Ir-192 isotopes for industrial production, construction maintenance of industries, power plants, oil and gas pipelines plants, railway, aviation systems, naval structures and vessels, etc is currently in the fore front for its reliabih ly, ease of application record keeping advantages. 

The bulk of global production from aquaculture is utilized directly as human food, with pubhc aquaculture playing a minor role in many nations or being absent. Private aquaculture is not only about human food production, however. There is, in some regions, weU-developed private sector aquaculture involved in the production of bait and ornamental fishes and invertebrates. 

The long lead times necessary to design and constmct large biomass conversion plants makes it unlikely that sufficient capacity can be placed on-line before the year 2000 to satisfy EJ blocks of energy demand. However, plant capacities can be rapidly increased if a concerted effort is made by government and private sectors.

Current Status The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and its private-sector collaborators have substantially advanced the development of gasification-based power systems during the last decade. This section describes the current status for the various types of gasifiers used. 

In the DOE environment, the term lesson learned is defined as a good work practice or innovative approach that is captured and shared to promote application. It may also be an adverse work practice or experience that is captured and shared to avoid recurrence. This term is used by DOE and other federal and private-sector institutions, to describe the following ... 

There are no easy prescriptions for successful risk communication. However, tliose who liave studied and participated in recent debates about risk generally agree on seven cardinal rules.

The roots of the LBNL can be traced back to the 1920s, and the pursuit of the secrets of the nucleus. Ernest O. Lawi ence, built the first large cyclotron (a particle accelerator) on the Berkeley campus of the University of California in 1931. Unlike most the other labs, LBNL s beginnings depended on the support of philanthropists who saw the promise in Lawrence s work. Seeking private sector support, an... 

Proponents of the laboratories counter that, despite these shortcomings, the laboratories seiwe a vital mission of undertaking the high risk and expensive investments that the private sector would never agree to invest in. Although natural gas research and development was minimal, DOE support accelerated technological advances on natural gas-fired turbines. Much of the research and development at the laboratories has provided a net social benefit to the nation and economy, work such as safe nuclear reactors and the development of sophisticated defense weapons.

These data can then be fed into electronic medical records (EMR) such as those the NHS plans to introduce throughout the UK over the next 2 years. This represents a process that will ultimately both reduce the frequency with which patients have to visit their doctor and improve health care delivery. EMR or electronic personal health records (as they are also known) have already been established, or are being established, in many European nations, such as Denmark. The United States, with its decentralized health care industry, is behind the curve in these efforts. However, in early fall of 2005, IBM and eight other IT companies that form the Technology CEO Council (TCC), including Intel, HP, Dell, Motorola, EMC, Applied Materials, NCR, and Unisys committed to adopt electronic health records based on open standards. In addition to these private sector efforts, the US Department of...

In terms of the influence exerted by the public and the private sectors on dmg regulation, these 10 countries can be placed along a continuum, as depicted in Figure 3.3 below. Cuba, where the Government has exclusive power over regulatory decisions, is at one extreme, and Australia, where consumers and the pharmaceutical industry have official representation and make recommendations to the TGA, at the other.

In Cyprus, drug regulation is also organized under the Pharmaceutical Services Division. The Drug Council serves as the central committee, with the Drug Control of Quality and Supply Sector (DCQSS) under the Pharmaceutical Services Division as its Secretariat. Drug Council members are drawn from both the public and private sectors, and are appointed by the Ministerial Council.
