The Research Question Sample Clauses

The Research Question. Can ‘regionally integrated competition law enforcement’ systems in deep regional trade agreements (RTAs) 1 help to address competition law enforcement problems of developing countries? This thesis will attempt to answer to this research question. In so doing the focus of analysis will be on economic and political dynamics in deep regional integrations, and the influence of these dynamics on regionally integrated competition law enforcement. Regional cooperation in competition law enforcement may take place at various levels under an RTA. 2 This thesis defines the deepest level of regional cooperation in competition law enforcement under an RTA as ‘regionally integrated competition law enforcement’. In order to qualify as this deepest level an RTA should require (a) adaptation of a regional competition law that is binding on all member states, (b) harmonisation of the national competition legislation of member states, if any, in line with the regional competition law, and (c) establishment of a regional institution that will undertake, or at least coordinate, certain competition law enforcement activities and ensure compliance with the regional competition law across the regional bloc. Integration of competition law enforcement under an RTA presupposes the transfer of certain powers that would traditionally be exercised by national governments based on their sovereignty rights (such as adjudication on competition disputes, decision on the content of competition laws) to regional institutions. Moreover, adaptation of regional laws and institutions, as well as establishment of a new system for legal enforcement, entails significant financial investment. For these reasons regionally integrated competition law enforcement systems are in practice found only in deep RTAs. It appears that countries find the alignment of wider political, trade and economic interests necessary to agreeing on political and economic commitments required for establishing 1 For the purposes of this thesis deep RTAs include customs union agreements and deeper forms of regional economic integration agreements. Different levels of regional economic integration are explained in Appendix 1 – Conceptual Clarifications. Meanings of the key concepts used in this thesis (i.e. ‘developing countries’, ‘competition policy’, and ‘competition law’) are also presented therein.

  • Research Use The Requester agrees that if access is approved, (1) the PI named in the DAR and (2) those named in the “Senior/Key Person Profile” section of the DAR, including the Information Technology Director and any trainee, employee, or contractor1 working on the proposed research project under the direct oversight of these individuals, shall become Approved Users of the requested dataset(s). Research use will occur solely in connection with the approved research project described in the DAR, which includes a 1-2 paragraph description of the proposed research (i.e., a Research Use Statement). Investigators interested in using Cloud Computing for data storage and analysis must request permission to use Cloud Computing in the DAR and identify the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) or providers and/or Private Cloud System (PCS) that they propose to use. They must also submit a Cloud Computing Use Statement as part of the DAR that describes the type of service and how it will be used to carry out the proposed research as described in the Research Use Statement. If the Approved Users plan to collaborate with investigators outside the Requester, the investigators at each external site must submit an independent DAR using the same project title and Research Use Statement, and if using the cloud, Cloud Computing Use Statement. New uses of these data outside those described in the DAR will require submission of a new DAR; modifications to the research project will require submission of an amendment to this application (e.g., adding or deleting Requester Collaborators from the Requester, adding datasets to an approved project). Access to the requested dataset(s) is granted for a period of one (1) year, with the option to renew access or close-out a project at the end of that year. Submitting Investigator(s), or their collaborators, who provided the data or samples used to generate controlled-access datasets subject to the NIH GDS Policy and who have Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval and who meet any other study specific terms of access, are exempt from the limitation on the scope of the research use as defined in the DAR.

  • Public Posting of Approved Users’ Research Use Statement The PI agrees that information about themselves and the approved research use will be posted publicly on the dbGaP website. The information includes the PI’s name and Requester, project name, Research Use Statement, and a Non-Technical Summary of the Research Use Statement. In addition, and if applicable, this information may include the Cloud Computing Use Statement and name of the CSP or PCS. Citations of publications resulting from the use of controlled-access datasets obtained through this DAR may also be posted on the dbGaP website.
