Have you changed any of those requirements . No, sir, we have not. Weve maintained under the regulations the the same old, same old. But see, thats my point. I think were you have to go to risk base when you are doing most of these approaches to try to ensure safety. And preemployment is one. Weve done that in the past. Were doing that. Now we have a new situation with much more of this available narcotic on the market. And weve seen an increase in use just by the statistics that were presented by some of the panelists today. But are you adapting the department of transportation regulations or advisories to where we see the most risk . Weve got faa, federal railroad administration. National highway safety. Tell me if there have been any changes in directives in the last 24 months. There have not been any changes to our random testing rates but many of our employees are interstate. So if a pilot flies in and out of denver doesnt mean he or she lives anywhere near denver. Many of our emp
No closer to denuclearizeish and today than was several years ago. They continue to develop nuclear and Cyber Capabilities at an alarming rate. Most troubling is the continued development of the medium and long range missile capability. It may be unreliable today but they could oppose a threat to guam, alaska, or even the west coast of the United States and some believe they have aspirations to build submarines that could carry these missiles even closer to the United States. They appear to be working toward a miniature warhead that can be mounted on missiles. The commander of us forces in north korea at this moment they may possess the ability to miniaturize a nuclear warhead. It is it is clear there aspirations do not stop with convention conventional Nuclear Weapons. They are quietly developing a defensive cyber capability. I was was deeply disturbed by the cyber attack on sony that took place. Agents agents working for the north korean regime than the lies and coworkers to company
That should be a principle of you and the principle that the Prime Minister reiterated in Prime Ministers questions today. I would have hoped that would have been a principle that could have been held by everybody across all parties in this house of commons. Certainly as far as im concerned, as far as the conservative party is concerned our manifesto would make it clear well introduce legislation needed to restore our declining Communications Capability and well use all the legal powers available to us to make sure where appropriate the police and security and intelligence agencies have the maximum ability to intercept the communications of suspects while insuring that such intrusive techniques are of course properly overseen. Mr. Peter hayes. Of course the secure Services Must have the necessary tools for the job but does she accept the priority is speak up, stand up against and where necessary confront islamophobia, antisemitism, racism and the fascist groups like the bnt and their d
We developed a preliminary set of risk indicators to analyze elements of risk along our border and evaluate the progress we were making amin relation to our goals. Before 2012 if you asked a Border Patrol agent if we were winning, he would say absolutely, and he would point to the number of arrests and seizures to show you that. Regardless of whether they went up or down, we were winning. We had no other way to explain it. This isnt to suggest we werent seceding in our mission, we just had no way to tell if we were succeeding along our border. So the Border Patrol had to build a foundation of consistent and reliable data on crossborder occurrences. Not only on data of what we were catching, we also had to record data on what we were not catching and the unknown. Today the Border Patrol does not describe the border as controlled or uncontrolled. Instead it uses a variety of indicators, intelligence estimates, capability assessments, commander judgment to assign areas with risk category
While i was thinking, speaking, and thank you very much for listening, during that time, the rosetta spacecraft has continued to circle the dark icy object that is, 67 p. Comet 67 p. And we may yet learn more of its secrets as it gets closer to the sun. Look at the mission that put together that unbelievable success. They were diverse. They came from different horizons. They did not grow up together. I think diversity had something to do with the success of that rosetta mission, and it is certainly a true testament to global cooperation. And policymakers should be inspired by that. You know, the real secret when we i found rosetta a long time ago, what can engender growth, but to deliver on the three rosetta moments as i call them policymakers need to enhance cooperation. They need to enhance a new multilateralism, and they need to put it into practice. Whether it applies toclop, ttp ttip, seg are you with me . It also requires new institutions that are efficient and credible and worki
