Chapter Conclusion. From the discussion above, we may conclude that the Territory’s social, cul- tural, and political norms have a significant resultant impact on the com- munity’s serious lack of (a) public knowledge and (b) public debate on non- economic and non-commercial issues. In particular, we may add, a serious level of public knowledge and of public debate on the social impact of mobile phone usage on children and young people. We opine that with better under- standing and knowledge of the capabilities and hazards of mobile usage, the

Chapter Conclusion. Interest in 1 Corinthians and ancient education is on the rise. Though the scholarship of the mid-twentieth-century—especially the work of Judge, Malherbe, and Conzelmann—laid the tracks for future research, much of the work surveyed here saw publication at some point in the last decade. These works differ in kind, quality, and interpretation of the subject matter. Nevertheless, there appears to be a budding scholarly consensus that an informed reading of 1 Cor 1-4 must account for the educational motifs in these chapters. The scholarly projects surveyed above demonstrate the potential value of a clear and comprehensive statement regarding the nature, extent, and function of educational discourse in 1 Cor 1-4. To date, scholarship on education in 1 Corinthians has either focused on traditional research questions which have governed so much interpretation of 1 Corinthians since Baur (e.g., What was the Corinthian wisdom? Who were Paul’s opponents?), or demonstrated the importance of one facet of ancient Greek, Roman, or Jewish education (e.g., Hellenistic philosophy, the Jewish wisdom tradition). Much of this scholarship has implicitly assumed a stark (and outdated) division between Hellenistic and Jewish educational mores. In response to this need, the following chapters aim to describe the educational motifs in 1 Cor 1-4 on their own terms, in light of the educational systems which might have informed Paul’s language. It is to understanding these educational systems and their interrelationships that we now turn.
Chapter Conclusion. This chapter evaluated the outcomes of the analyses in the previous chap- ters to provide overarching observations concerning the study’s results. These observations may aid in deciding how we move forward in amend- ing the domestic and international legal frameworks that regulate the digital investigative methods used in cybercrime investigations. Section 10.1 emphasised how the challenges of (1) anonymity, (2) encryption, and (3) jurisdiction make it difficult for law enforcement offi- cials to gather evidence in cybercrime investigations. The examined digi- tal investigative methods may provide a solid overview of the instruments that law enforcement authorities can use to overcome these challenges in cybercrime investigations. It was pointed out that the special investigative powers that are created to provide instruments for gathering evidence and prosecuting cybercriminals cannot be solely be used to ‘disrupt’ cybercrime. In section 10.2 it was argued that Dutch criminal procedural law requires a general overhaul if it is to adequately regulate the use of digital inves-
Chapter Conclusion. The research question of this chapter is how should international space law move forward to better regulate the four issues relating to the governance of ADR. The potential path forward can be outlined in four words, which are commitment, safety, consent and transparency. With regard to Issue 1, the keyword is “commitment”. In view of the global dimension of the space debris problem, collective efforts of the international community are needed to tackle this challenge. However, the current international legal framework for space activities does not impose a clear obligation upon States to mitigate and remove space debris. Consider- ing that the conclusion of a legally binding agreement does not appear a feasible near-term option, the international community has to consider other alternatives to deal with the ever-growing amount of space debris. The path forward may start with some States acting as trailblazers which take the lead in making unilateral and multilateral commitments on space debris mitigation and remediation, and other States may subsequently join the initiative. The US-led moratorium on direct-ascent anti-satellite testing illustrates how a unilateral commitment is joined by other States and leads to the adoption of a UN General Assembly resolution on this matter. The statement and communiqué made by the G7 nations and the ESA-initiated Zero Debris Charter represent examples of commitments at the multilateral and regional levels. This also indicates that some actors are already taking steps to shape global consensus on space sustainability. The commitments and initiatives made by some forward-looking States and institutions would hopefully create a snowball effect and lead to the adop- tion of an international agreement systematising the process for the contract- ing parties to make and review their commitments. The Paris Agreement may serve as a relevant model, and the review mechanisms established in this Agreement could be modelled after for the development of an interna- tional agreement to mitigate and remove space debris. With the growing role of private actors in space activities, their involvement in the preservation of the outer space environment will become increasingly important. The Net Zero Space initiative represents an inclusive forum where all stakeholders
Chapter Conclusion. This systematic review identified that while a large range of dynamic risk factors for inpatient aggression have been reported, a substantially smaller number demonstrate good levels of replicability and predictive ability. These risk factors were selected as candidates for the ESM and passive remote monitoring procedures used in later studies in this thesis, with Chapter 6 outlining the process by which the final set of dynamic risk factors was chosen. This review also highlighted multiple limitations of previous research which this thesis will address. For example, studies in this review typically used infrequent assessments of risk factors which were separated by days, weeks or months. These studies could therefore not investigate to what extent these risk factors vary over shorter periods of time and how these short-term changes relate to risk of future aggression. Chapter 5 outlines the process which assessed the optimal timeframes for identifying significant change in these risk factors, with Chapters 6, 7 and 8 investigating the magnitude of change over these timeframes and the relationship to aggression. Another key limitation of studies in this review was a lack of raters who were blind to the aggressive outcomes, raising the possibility that their risk ratings were influenced by the knowledge of service usersaggressive behaviour. The remote monitoring methods used in this thesis overcame this limitation as risk factor ratings were separate from staff members’ recording of aggressive incidents. The work presented in this chapter has been published: Xxxxx, X., Xxxxxxx, X., Xxxxx, X., & Xxxxx, T. (2019). Predicting inpatient aggression in forensic services using remote monitoring technology: qualitative study of staff perspectives. Journal of medical internet research, 21(9), e15620.
Chapter Conclusion. This study outlines how passive remote monitoring technology could offer numerous benefits to monitoring the risk of aggression in inpatient forensic mental health services from the perspective of staff working within these services. Multiple points related to feasibility and acceptability were raised, therefore it was considered prudent to conduct an initial pilot study (see Chapter 4). Another key theme raised by staff related to the clinical utility of remote monitoring, particularly the potential to identify relevant changes in risk factors before this escalated into aggression. Chapters 6, 7 and 8 present the results of studies conducted with service users to investigate this possibility. Many findings in this study also reflect issues which are beyond the scope of this thesis but should be addressed in future research. For example, participants identified a range of implementation barriers that need to be overcome to integrate remote monitoring effectively into current working practice. This reflects a wider issue in the literature with most novel prediction models in mental health failing to progress to the implementation stage (Xxxxxxx xx Xxxxx et al., 2020). Establishing appropriate policies and standards for data protection represents another key hurdle for the wider use of remote monitoring, requiring collaboration between service users, healthcare staff, researcher and digital health organisations (Xxxxxx et al., 2019). These issues and recommendations for future research are discussed in greater detail in Chapter 9.
Chapter Conclusion. This study investigated the acceptability and feasibility of ESM and passive remote monitoring procedures among a sample of forensic mental health staff and service users. Acceptability of remote monitoring is a key barrier to engagement, and it was essential to investigate this and highlight potential usability issues before progressing to the later studies reported in this thesis. Both ESM and passive remote monitoring were considered acceptable and feasible based on participant self-report and objective indices of device usage and data quality. A secondary aim was to compare the acceptability and feasibility of the Empatica E4 and Biovotion Everion, to select the optimal device to take forward in the future studies. Based on the findings the Empatica E4 was selected as the optimal device for use in future studies.

Chapter Conclusion. This chapter aimed to answer the questions of how the hard law pillar of international space law applies to the four issues relating to the governance of ADR and whether there exist regulatory gaps. An examination of the rules and principles under the UN space treaties and general international law shows that these rules and principles lay down the fundamental legal framework for space activities including ADR. Yet, they do not specifically address the issue of space debris, and there are legal gaps for the regulation of each of the four issues, which will be summarised below.

Distributions payable with respect to any Partnership Units, other than any Partnership Units issued to the General Partner in connection with the issuance of REIT Shares by the General Partner, that were not outstanding during the entire quarterly period in respect of which any distribution is made shall be prorated based on the portion of the period that such Partnership Units were outstanding. The General Partner shall make such reasonable efforts, as determined by it in its sole and absolute discretion and consistent with the General Partner’s qualification as a REIT, to cause the Partnership to distribute sufficient amounts to enable the General Partner, for so long as the General Partner has determined to qualify as a REIT, to pay stockholder dividends that will (a) satisfy the requirements for qualifying as a REIT under the Code and Regulations (the “REIT Requirements”) and (b) except to the extent otherwise determined by the General Partner, eliminate any U.S. federal income or excise tax liability of the General Partner. Notwithstanding anything in the forgoing to the contrary, a Holder of LTIP Units will only be entitled to distributions with respect to an LTIP Unit as set forth in Article 16 hereof and in making distributions pursuant to this Section 5.1, the General Partner of the Partnership shall take into account the provisions of Section 16.4 hereof.

  • Initial Business Combination/Distribution Procedure The Company may consummate the Initial Business Combination and conduct redemptions of Common Stock for cash upon consummation of such Initial Business Combination without a stockholder vote pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, including the filing of tender offer documents with the Commission. Such tender offer documents will contain substantially the same financial and other information about the Initial Business Combination and the redemption rights as is required under the Commission’s proxy rules and will provide each stockholder of the Company with the opportunity prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination to redeem the Common Stock held by such stockholder for an amount of cash equal to (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two Business Days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination representing (x) the proceeds held in the Trust Account from the Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants and (y) any interest, divided by (B) the total number of Public Shares then outstanding. In the event the Company conducts redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s offer to redeem will remain open for at least 20 Business Days, in accordance with Rule 14e-1(a) under the Exchange Act, and the Company will not be permitted to complete the Initial Business Combination until the expiration of the tender offer period. If, however, the Company elects not to file such tender offer documents, a stockholder vote is required by law or stock exchange listing requirement in connection with the Initial Business Combination, or the Company decides to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will submit such Initial Business Combination to the Company’s stockholders for their approval (“Business Combination Vote”). The company will give not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days prior written notice of any such meeting, if required, at which a Business Combination Vote shall be taken. With respect to the Business Combination Vote, the Sponsor and the Company’s initial stockholders, executive officers and directors have agreed to vote all of their Founder Shares and Public Shares in favor of the Company’s initial Business Combination. If the Company seeks stockholder approval of the Initial Business Combination, the Company will offer to each Public Stockholder holding shares of Common Stock the right to have its shares redeemed in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules of the Commission at a per share redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to (I) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two Business Days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination representing (1) the proceeds held in the Trust Account from the Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants and (2) any interest, divided by (II) the total number of Public Shares then outstanding. The Company may proceed with such Initial Business Combination only if a majority of the shares voted are voted to approve such Initial Business Combination. If, after seeking and receiving such stockholder approval, the Company elects to so proceed, it will redeem shares, at the Redemption Price, from those Public Stockholders who affirmatively requested such redemption. Only Public Stockholders holding Common Stock who properly exercise their redemption rights, in accordance with the applicable tender offer or proxy materials related to such Initial Business Combination, shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account in connection with an Initial Business Combination, and the Company shall pay no distributions with respect to any other holders or shares of capital stock of the Company in connection therewith. In the event that the Company does not effect an Initial Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including any interest (which shall be net of amounts withdrawn to pay taxes and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Only Public Stockholders holding Common Stock included in the Securities shall be entitled to receive such redemption amounts and the Company shall pay no such redemption amounts or any distributions in liquidation with respect to any other shares of capital stock of the Company. The Company will not propose any amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide for the redemption of the Public Shares in connection with an Initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if it does not complete its initial business combination within the time period set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, unless it provides its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of Class A common stock upon approval of any such amendment, as described in the Statutory Prospectus and Prospectus.

  • Aggregation of Entity Accounts For purposes of determining the aggregate balance or value of accounts held by an Entity, a Reporting Financial Institution shall be required to take into account all accounts held by Entities that are maintained by the Reporting Financial Institution, or Related Entities, to the extent that the Reporting Financial Institution’s computerised systems link the accounts by reference to a data element such as client number or taxpayer identification number and allow account balances or values to be aggregated.
