THE SOLUTION. The proposed reform was initially developed by the National Coordinating Committee for Multiemployer Plans. Representing both labor and management, the organization proposed allowing troubled plans to take action to save themselves. Education and the Workforce Committee Chairman Xxxx Xxxxx (R-MN) and senior Democrat Xxxxxx Xxxxxx (D-CA) have announced bipartisan multiemployer pension reform legislation that mirrors this proposal, which is backed by business and labor leaders and known as “Solutions, Not Bailouts.” It is the only available option that could save these failing plans, and it is the last chance that labor unions and their members have to gain some control over the future of their pensions. This reform would give multiemployer pension plans the tools they need to rescue themselves. The bipartisan agreement would provide the critical flexibility necessary to keep pension plans from going under and causing workers to lose everything. The proposal includes reforms to protect taxpayers and provide trustees with new tools to save troubled plans. It also includes important consumer safeguards to give participants in these plans a voice and to protect the most vulnerable retirees. Specifically, the bipartisan reform will: Permit trustees of severely underfunded plans to adjust vested benefits, enabling deeply troubled plans to survive without a federal bailout. Require approval by plan participants of any proposed benefit adjustments that take effect. This provision includes a fail-safe mechanism for those plans that present a systemic risk the multiemployer pension system. Provide participant protections to safeguard the most vulnerable retirees, including disabled retirees and individuals age 75 and older. Give the PBGC the authority to take earlier action to help save failing plans, reducing potential future costs.

THE SOLUTION. Contractor shall use its Solution to provide Services including but not limited to Operations at Contractor’s Sites in accordance with the Contract.
THE SOLUTION. The issues mentioned above could be resolved by the use of standardised templates. Since APIC is committed to improve the relationship between the different stakeholders in the production process of safe API, APIC has developed this Quality Agreement Guideline including the corresponding templates. The APIC Task Force that did the work consisted of members from both specialised API/intermediate manufacturers and companies primarily making finished drug products. Hence APIC believes that the result represents best industry practice considering the needs and requirements that enter into such a Quality Agreement.
THE SOLUTION. It is my belief that an appropriate private dispute resolution mechanism, that I have named “Settlement Consultation,” can be interjected when the parties themselves have reached an impasse in their settle- ment negotiations, but before litigation is started. It envisions the parties agreeing to bring in an impartial, experienced, knowledgeable and trusted person ( the “Settlement Consultant”). The Settlement Consultant’s role is to assist the parties to move past the stumbling block and to move forward in their negotiations to a mutually satisfactory settlement. The negotiations continue to be confidential. The Set- tlement Consultant would bring a fresh perspective to the negotiations, while the negotiations continue to be the property of the parties. The parties continue to have all the power and control to craft a settlement, or to decline to do so…but with a little help from a trusted friend. Hopefully the parties will see Settle- ment Consultation as merely a useful extension or continuation of their inter-party negotiation, and not as a hostile action by either party against the other.
THE SOLUTION. Uniform legislation A federal or state uniform legislation regarding medical malpractice arbitration agreements should be enacted to avoid judicial inconsistencies and promote such agreements. Clauses based on the following suggestions should be included in any uniform statute in order to safeguard both patients and physicians.
THE SOLUTION establishment of the Paragraph 6 System This problem was recognized in Paragraph 6 of the Declaration (hence the reference to the ‘Paragraph 6 System’). Subsequent work in the TRIPS Council prepared the ground for the adoption of two important General Council decisions establishing the Paragraph 6 System, which were both adopted in the light of a Chairman’s statement setting out several key shared understandings of Members on how the Paragraph 6 System would be interpreted and implemented. These two decisions are provided in Annexes 7 and 8. The General Council Decision of 30 August 2003 on the Implementa- tion of Paragraph 6 of the Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health (WT/L/540 and Corr.1) waives under certain circumstances
THE SOLUTION. The Solution provides Customers with security vulnerability analytics and trends in Customer’s network and endpoints which assist in the prevention of system attacks. Specific services included as part of the Solution include: • Arctic Wolf will provide Customer with internal vulnerability assessment (IVA) through an on-premise Managed Risk scanner. Managed Risk scanners, at the election of Customer at the time of order, may be a deployed as a physical piece of equipment or virtual instance. • During onboarding, Arctic Wolf will work with Customer to determine Customer’s Managed Risk scanner configuration. The scanner, based upon the agreed upon configuration, will scan Customer’s network to identify security vulnerabilities within Customer’s host and/or network infrastructures. • Information obtained from the IVA scans will be paired with an external vulnerability assessment (“EVA”) function. The EVA will be run from Arctic Wolf’s cloud-hosted environment, will scan Customer’s IP addresses associated with Customer’s organization or such other addresses designated by Customer and for which Customer is legally authorized to scan, and will provide Customer with a comprehensive security risk posture based on an industry-standard and recognized Cybersecurity Framework and Arctic Wolf’s proprietary algorithm. • The EVA function will also be used to scan external network environments for dark web exposures to identify any Customer personally identifiable information that is publicly accessible through the Account Takeover (ATO) capability. • Customer may elect not to deploy the Arctic Wolf Agent (the “Agent”), proprietary end point software, which will be configured by Arctic Wolf during onboarding as agreed. Use of the Agent allows Arctic Wolf to run local system scans to augment the Solutions Data used to identify security vulnerability analytics, trends in Customer’s network and endpoints, scan for system misconfigurations through the security controls benchmarking function, and perform host-based vulnerability assessment scan. • Customer understands and agrees that Arctic Wolf, in the performance of the Solution, may use a GeoIP service (i.e., a method of locating a computer terminal’s geographic location by identifying that terminal’s internet protocol (“IP”) address) to report the location of Customer's IP address. • Customer may access and use the Arctic Wolf Analytics platform that aggregates Solutions Data from the Agent and IVA. Analytics will allow Cu...
