Please provide a short summary of this passage. | New York Fed president Mr Dudley said economic turmoil in China had made the case for a rate rise harder to make.
"The slowdown in China could lead... to a slower global growth rate and less demand for the US economy," he said.
The US central bank was also "a long way from" engaging in more quantitative easing to prop up the economy, he said.
Before the recent China turmoil many economists expected rates to be raised at the Fed meeting on 16-17 September.
And only last week minutes from the minutes of the Fed's meeting on 28-29 July showed that policymakers thought then that conditions for a US rate rise "were approaching".
But the turmoil in China's stock markets and the, so-far, limited impact of Beijing's efforts to calm the situation has increased fears of a greater-than-expected slowdown in the world's second largest economy.
That in turn could drag down growth globally, and there have been calls from some economists for the US to now put back any interest rate rises.
However, despite his misgivings Mr Dudley has left the door partly open to the possibility of a rate hike in September.
He said the case for a rise "could become more compelling by the time of the meeting as we get additional information on how the US economy is performing and... international financial market developments, all of which are important to shaping the US economic outlook".
US interest rates have been held at near-zero since the 2008 financial crisis. Should there be a rise, it would be the first interest rate increase in nine years, | Federal Reserve official, William Dudley, has said that a rate rise in September now "seems less compelling" than it was a few weeks ago. |
Can you provide an overview of this section? | The Baggies, who are in the process of being sold to a Chinese investment group, have so far only signed winger Matt Phillips this summer.
"I don't think the owners will spend billions, but the club needs a lift," Pulis told BBC WM.
"We need five players to come in and make a difference straightaway - we need almost half a team."
Talking before Albion's opening Premier League game at Crystal Palace on Saturday, Pulis added: "That has to be done - the players and supporters are waiting for them."
While the deal to sell the club to an investment group led by entrepreneur Guochuan Laiwas was agreed in June, the sale is dependent on approval from the Financial Conduct Authority and the Premier League.
West Brom, who finished six points clear of relegation in 14th last season, were set to sign West Ham striker Diafra Sakho only to pull out of the deal this month because of concerns about the player's fitness.
After selling Wales defender James Chester to Aston Villa, Pulis says new arrivals must be established first-team players capable of complementing emerging talent already on their books.
"People have said we need one or two, but we need at least five players immediately for us to be strong enough to compete this year," Pulis said.
"We've got three outstanding young players in the group as it is - Sam Field, Jonathan Leko and Kane Wilson. They've been in the group all pre-season and been absolutely fantastic - they've got bright futures here."
Pulis is adamant unsettled striker Saido Berahino, who is wanted by Stoke City, will not be sold until a suitable replacement can be found, especially after the failure to sign Sakho.
"We've got to get someone in - we have to do that first," Pulis said.
"We can't have a situation where it's just Salomon Rondon and Rickie Lambert - we're light at that end of the pitch."
The arrival of prospective new owners has led to speculation about Pulis' future, but with 12 months remaining on his deal at the The Hawthorns the former Stoke and Crystal Palace boss says he "wants to see this through".
"I've got a year left on my contract and we'll go from there - I'm more concerned about getting the players in and doing it for the supporters," he said.

Summarize the passage below. | A new surface was installed last month ahead of Ross County's League Cup final win over Hibernian.
But the grass was in poor condition for Rangers' Challenge Cup final victory against Peterhead on Sunday.
Rangers return to meet Celtic at the national stadium next Sunday, the day after Hibernian take on Dundee United.
The replacement pitch process begins on Monday and will be completed by Tuesday.
Peterhead boss Jim McInally described the pitch as "dangerous" after four of his men were injured in the loss to Rangers.
"It's better for it to be relaid than to try and play on that if you are trying to play two semi-finals next week," he said. "It is in really, really poor condition. It is solid."
Peter Dallas, managing director of Hampden Park Ltd (HPL), said: "This latest action is deemed necessary after discussions with our pitch supply chain and representatives from the independent Sports Turf Research Institute following the installation of a new surface only five weeks ago.
"While the pitch is in an adequate playing condition, and has been professionally managed with an extensive maintenance and nutrition programme, regrettably it became evident that the rye grass in certain strips had not grown as expected.
"Given the recent six-figure investment, we expressed our concerns through the established supply chain and reached agreement that a new surface would be relaid at no cost to HPL. We spoke to our colleagues at the SPFL to assure them the decision would have no impact on today's Petrofac Training Cup final.
"We are confident that this action will provide the best possible playing surface for the Scottish Cup semi-finals and, indeed, the climax to the Scottish football season."
The body of Sinead Wooding, 26, was found by joggers near Alwoodley Crags car park in Stairfoot Lane on 14 May.
Vicky Briggs, 25, of Reginald Mount, Chapeltown, is accused of assisting an offender and is due at Leeds Magistrates' Court on Monday.
Two people have previously been charged with murder and a 20-year-old has been charged with assisting an offender.

An impressive first quarter saw the Dragons take the lead 11-10, but the title record holders fought back with the game ending 51-41 in their favour.
"The second quarter let us down and that meant we were chasing the game," captain Suzy Drane told BBC Wales Sport.
"But the rest of the three quarters were really tight and competitive."
Dragons faces Scottish Sirens in their next game on 25 February in the new Super Ten event in Birmingham.
Sirens are one of three new franchises for the 2017 season and head coach Trish Wilcox is relishing the challenge as she targets an impressive campaign.
"It's a great challenge and I think it's a very exciting league this year because there is so much unknown which really levels the playing field," she explained.

Please summarize the given passage. | Bashar al-Assad said Mr Trump would be a "natural ally" if he fulfilled a campaign pledge to fight terrorism.
But he said it was "dubious" whether Mr Trump could "live up to his promises".
Mr Trump had previously said it was "madness" to oppose both Syrian forces and IS militants, and that fighting Syria could lead to fighting Russia.
Conflict continues to rage in Syria. Government aircraft on Tuesday bombed besieged rebel-held eastern districts of the city of Aleppo for the first time in three weeks, activists said.
More than 300,000 people have died since the Syrian civil conflict began in March 2011.
Speaking to Portugal's RTP state television, Mr Assad said: "We cannot tell anything about what he's going to do, but if... he is going to fight the terrorists, of course we are going to be [an] ally, natural ally in that regard with the Russians, with the Iranians, with many other countries."
Mr Assad said that Mr Trump's pledge to focus the fight on Islamic State (IS) militants was "promising", but added: "Can he deliver?"
"What about the countervailing forces within the administration, the mainstream media that were against him? How can he deal with it? That's why for us it's still dubious... That's why we are very cautious in judging him."
Current US policy is to strike against IS and other jihadists while supporting moderate rebels opposed to President Assad.
Mr Assad regards those groups as terrorists.
Some US media, including the New York Times, have suggested Mr Trump is likely to end aid for the rebels fighting Mr Assad because "we have no idea who these people are".
He has said fighting Syria could lead to fighting Russia and during the election campaign he had shown admiration for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
On Monday, fellow Republican John McCain lashed out at Mr Trump's planned attempt to reset ties with Russia, saying the price would be the "butchery of the Syrian people".
In his interview, Mr Assad again condemned the current US policy, saying: "They think that they are the police of the world. They think they are the judge of the world. They're not."
He also called Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan a "sick person" and a "megalomaniac... out of touch with reality".
Turkey has carried out operations in Syria to back rebels opposing Mr Assad.
Meanwhile, conflict has resumed in Aleppo after a three-week lull by government forces and their Russian allies to allow civilians and rebels to leave.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group reported that at least five people had been killed as a number of areas were hit.
The Local Co-ordination Committees, an opposition activist network, also reported that a missile hit the town of Saraqeb in Idlib province, and that Russian warplanes had targeted the towns of Ariha, Ihsim, Khan Sheikhoun and Tal Nabi Ayoub.
The LCC also said there had been air strikes on several locations in Aleppo province on Tuesday, including one that damaged a hospital in Awaijel.
US state department spokeswoman Elizabeth Trudeau condemned the renewed air strikes, adding that "Russia again has backed the Assad regime in their ruthless war against the Syrian people".
She said reported attacks on hospitals and a mobile clinic in Syria would be a violation of international law.
Conor Munro attacked Nicole Jarrett after she poured his whisky down the sink at the supported accommodation in Arbroath where he was staying.
A court heard the attack was carried out in front of staff who did not intervene "for their own safety."
Sheriff Alastair Brown had sent Munro's case to the High Court in Edinburgh, which has greater sentencing powers.
Munro, 24, admitted the offences, which were committed on 21 September last year.
Judge Lord Ericht said Munro had subjected his victim to "a terrifying attack" and in addition to the prison sentence said he would impose a 12-month supervised release order on him.
One of the conditions of the supervision period is that Munro must inform his supervisor of any developing romantic relationships. | Syria's leader has said he hopes US President-elect Donald Trump will be an ally in fighting terrorism but remains "cautious in judging him".

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | Candidates for La République en Marche came first in 10 of the 11 seats given to France's 1.3 million expatriates.
Opinion polls at home in France also give Mr Macron's movement a clear lead in elections beginning on Sunday.
Gaining a legislative majority would complete Mr Macron's ground-shaking realignment of French politics.
It would enable him to start work on his programme of reforming the French labour market, reviving the economy and pushing for reform of the European Union.
Currently Mr Macron's La République en Marche (LREM) has no parliamentary seats, and most of his candidates are political novices.
France's expatriates are divided among 11 constituencies created in legislative redistricting in 2010. Their geographical distance means they vote early - but critics have questioned the wisdom of announcing the results so early, saying it could affect the domestic vote.
Just weeks ago, Mr Macron thrust aside rivals from the established centre-left and centre-right parties, to claim the presidency.
His final challenger in the second round was far-right leader Marine Le Pen - leading some to attribute his victory to voters uniting for "anything but Le Pen".
But opinion polls suggest voters are willing to give LREM a chance, despite an investigation into the financial dealings of one of Mr Macron's cabinet ministers.

What are the French president's policies?
The latest Ipsos Sopre-Steria poll on Tuesday putting LREM ahead with 29.5%, projecting that it could end up with 385-415 of the 577 seats in France's lower house of parliament after the second round of voting on 18 June.
The poll placed the centre-right Republicans second with 23%, the far-right National Front third with 17% and the far-left France Unbowed fourth with 12.5%.
The Americas are split into two constituencies, Europe into six, Africa into two, one of which also incorporates many Arab states. The 11th constituency is geographically the largest, spanning other Asian countries, Oceania, Belarus Moldova and Ukraine.
The LREM won many of these seats easily, with support of over 50% - though low turnout of 19.1% means several will be unable to claim the seat before submitting to a second round.
The only constituency not to back an LREM candidate was North-West Africa - though here the leading contender had had her association with LREM withdrawn over questions about her political links. | France's overseas voters have overwhelmingly backed candidates for the nascent party of its new President Emmanuel Macron. |

The Birmingham pair had attempted the walk in "poor conditions" and with "inadequate equipment", the team said.
Other walkers were able to offer them warm and dry clothes before 14 rescue volunteers arrived to escort them down.
Team volunteer Graham O'Hanlon attended the rescue near Dolgellau, Gwynedd.
"It is always great to see people enjoying the outdoors, but it is really important to take the mountain environment seriously, particularly in winter," he said.
"The weather was pretty much as forecast, so to head out into those conditions without the equipment or navigational skills to cope is to invite misfortune. Without the helpful intervention of the other walkers in the hut, the situation for these walkers could have been much more serious by the time rescuers arrived." | Two walkers had to be rescued after they became "disorientated" at the summit of a 3,000ft Snowdonia peak. |
What is the summary of the provided article? | Symantec said it had evidence that the same group attempted to steal money from a bank in the Philippines, one in Vietnam and Bangladesh's central bank.
It also said the rare malware deployed was similar to that used in the hacking of Sony Pictures in 2014.
The US government said North Korea was behind the Sony hack.
If North Korea is found to be behind the bank attacks, it would be the first time a country has been detected stealing money in a cyber-attack, Symantec's technical director Eric Chien told Reuters.
In February this year, hackers stole $81m (£55m) from the central bank of Bangladesh.
According to Symantec, it was the same group that attempted to steal $1m from the Tien Phong Bank in Vietnam and attacked a bank in the Philippines.
In addition, the code shares similarities with malware used by the group known as Lazarus which has been accused of various attacks on the US and South Korea, including the attacks against Sony Pictures Entertainment.
On the internet, no-one knows if you are a dog and they have an equally difficult time working out what kind of cyber thief you are too.
It is common for online criminals to take attack code from other groups and bend it to their own malign purposes. They do it to cover their tracks and because what worked well against one target might work for them too.
That code-sharing is less true when it comes to nation-state attacks which is why some security firms will name those they believe are behind these relatively rare intrusions. Typically the code used in these attacks is more about stealthy spying than outright theft so is less useful to those after cash.
But that is not the case here as the code has been used to target bank networks and go after huge amounts of money. But it is difficult to be sure because code is code and once it is widely disseminated online it becomes harder to see who is behind the keyboard.
Taken by David Russell, it was one of hundreds of images submitted for this year's contest.
The entries were whittled down to a shortlist of pictures before judges selected a winner.
Held annually, the competition seeks to showcase the diverse landscapes of the UK's 15 national parks.
The Republic won 1-0 on Wednesday to secure a match against the hosts at the Stade de Lyon in the last 16.
"I don't think you would want to head out of the competition meekly," said the Republic manager, 64.
"You want to go out blazing if you can and we want to try to stay in it because we feel we can do something."
The Republic's midweek heroics in Lille echoed their achievement in beating world champions Germany 1-0 during the qualifying campaign.
They go into Sunday's match as underdogs once more, but O'Neill has suggested his team do not necessarily need to be defensive.
"I have spent my time in the last two-odd years here in qualification sending out what I would consider adventurous teams to win games," the manager said.
"We played a very adventurous game against Sweden. We weren't allowed to play well against Belgium and that can happen because they are a top-class side.
"In the game against Italy, we knew we needed some extra energy in the team.
"We have some older players playing, certainly in their 30s, so we had to get that energy into the side, which we did - and not only did we have that energy, we played brilliantly in the match, so we have those things to look forward to."
Shane Duffy, Richard Keogh, James McClean and Daryl Murphy were all drafted into the team to impressive effect against the Italians and O'Neill must decide whether to tinker with his starting line-up once more.
The Republic's preparations for the Lyon contest has included regular penalties practice, with a view to a possible shootout.
"We have practised the penalties pretty well consistently, replicating that on the training ground where all players want to take the penalties - all of them, including the goalkeepers," added O'Neill.
"I wonder what it will be like if we do get to a shootout? That might be slightly different.
"If we go get to penalties, there are at least three players I know who won't take them - who haven't been able to hit the target too often. I shall not name them." | A top cyber-security firm is investigating whether North Korea could be linked to attacks on banks in recent months.

The world and Commonwealth champions were 58-52 winners in the opening match in Liverpool on Wednesday.
And despite England leading by four goals at one stage on Friday, the Aussie Diamonds recovered to claim their second victory.
The final match of the series is on Sunday at the Copperbox (18:30 GMT).
Tracey Neville named an unchanged side from Wednesday and after going 5-0 down early on, England recovered to go in level at the end of the first quarter.
The Roses found their stride and opened up a four-goal lead, but Australia fought their way back into the contest to go in 25-23 at the break.
Neville brought on newcomers Laura Malcolm and Natalie Haythornthwaite at half-time, and her team were soon cut adrift by the world number one side who eased to victory.
PSV Eindhoven defender Hector Moreno and coach Phillip Cocu visited him at the hospital in Geldorp on Friday.
Defender Shaw, 20, is recovering from surgery on the double fracture he suffered in the 2-1 Champions League loss on Tuesday.
"Hector is really distressed his opponent was so badly hurt," said Cocu.
"We first asked whether Shaw would meet us, which he wanted to," Cocu told Dutch media on Saturday. "We offered him the help of PSV should he need anything in relation to his recovery."
Cocu said the incident had weighed heavily on Mexico international Moreno, who suffered a broken leg at last year's World Cup in Brazil.
He told reporters: "It has affected him, it has affected the others and it has affected me."
Cocu also said the defender had no intention of injuring the Manchester United man. Moreno issued an apology the day after the game.
England defender Shaw posted images of himself with hospital staff on his Instagram account.
He wrote: "I just wanna say a massive thank you to everyone at St Anna hospital for all the care and attention they have given me the last few days. Something I will never forget! Am pleased to be flying back to Manchester today so I can start my journey back onto the football pitch!"

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | The number of diverts was nearly double the level in the previous three winters and has prompted warnings about the pressures facing the health service.
Hospitals said closures were a last resort but had to be done to maintain safety in A&E.
But paramedics warned it had the knock-on effect of slowing their ability to get to the sick and injured quickly.
Ambulance crews have failed to hit any of their response time targets since May 2015, with latest figures showing that a third of the most critically ill patients wait longer than eight minutes for a 999 response.
Richard Webber, from the Royal College of Paramedics, said that while he was "sympathetic" to the problems hospitals were facing, the diverts were a significant cause of delays in reaching "seriously ill and injured patients".
"There is a double whammy in that not only do crews have to drive further away once a divert is implemented - [but] once that's happened, an ambulance crew will then also need to travel further to get back to their own area to respond to the next call."
The figures, compiled by the Nuffield Trust think tank from official NHS data, showed there were 478 diverts in December, January and February.
That compared to 265 the winter before, 258 in 2014-15 and 225 in 2013-14.
Prof John Appleby, of the Nuffield Trust, said tackling the issue should be an "urgent priority".
"The extra time crews are having to spend on the road is not helping the ambulance service's ability to meet its response time targets," he said.
He also said his research showed there was low morale among ambulance staff, which he said was worrying.
The diverts normally last only a couple of hours and are put in place to allow A&E staff to reduce the queues of patients waiting for treatment.
When a divert is put in place, ambulances are routed to other nearby hospitals.
Five hospital trusts accounted for nearly half of the diverts. These were:
Saffron Cordery, of NHS Providers, which represents hospitals, said the trend was "stark".
"Diverting ambulances to other hospitals is disruptive for paramedics and bad for patients.
"The sharp increase in the number of diversions is very worrying. Further steps will be needed across health and social care to address these pressures."
NHS England pointed out many of the diverts would be to hospitals close by so patients were not being sent to hospitals a long way from their homes.
In a statement, the organisation added too many ambulances were being dispatched to simply try to hit targets - and it was now reviewing the system to see if there was a more efficient way of running the service to relieve the pressure.

Write a concise summary for the following article. | According to an indictment unsealed on Tuesday, Noor Salman "did knowingly aid and abet" her husband's efforts to support the Islamic State group.
She has also been accused of misleading police investigators and FBI agents on the day of the 12 June 2016 attack.
Her family say she is a victim herself and innocent of the charges.
Ms Salman is charged with providing material support to a foreign terrorist organisation and obstruction of justice.
"She knew he was going to conduct the attack," federal prosecutor Roger Handberg told the judge.
Al Salman, an uncle of the 30-year-old woman, said that his niece was "simple and innocent" and was physically and mentally abused by her husband, Omar Mateen.
He asserted that she knew nothing about her husband's plan to attack Orlando's Pulse nightclub.
Mateen was killed in a shootout with police after killing 49 people and injuring 53 others in the worst mass shooting in modern American history.
During the attack, Mateen called police to pledge support for the Islamic State group.
A lawyer for Ms Salman said in court that she had no advance knowledge of the tragedy and she should be released from jail pending trial.
She was arrested on Sunday in the San Francisco area after moving there from Florida following the attack.

Summarize the information in the following section. | Daniel McCrossan, who represents West Tyrone, said the incident happened at his office in Omagh on Monday morning.
He said a woman entered began "shouting and hurling offensive" abuse about him at the worker, who was on her own.
He added unrelated abusive incidents have been happening at his offices on almost a monthly basis for a year.
The police said inquiries into Monday's incident are ongoing.
Mr McCrossan told BBC News NI his member of staff had been left frightened and shaken by the woman, who he said "kept shouting and roaring, slagging off me, SDLP representatives and the party generally".
He claims the incident lasted for up to 20 minutes before his staff member was able to get the woman to leave.
The MLA revealed they had been the target of a spate of abusive incidents over the past 12 months, but said he does not believe there is a specific motive behind them.
He said windows at his offices in Omagh and Strabane have previously been smashed, staff have received abusive phone calls and people have come into the offices to confront staff directly.
"There is no reason in particular, there are a number of elected representatives and offices from an array of parties who get this," said Mr McCrossan.
"Largely, most of us have stayed quiet, but we've had enough.
"I accept public representatives are going to face some level of aggression, but when people come to abuse a member of my staff it's entirely unacceptable."
The SDLP MLA is due to meet with his team on Tuesday evening to discuss reviewing security measures at constituency offices.
"My offices in Omagh and Strabane are very accessible, but if this continues we are going to have to look at putting security buzzer systems on doors," he added.
Mr McCrossan said, however, that because of budget constraints on office expenditure, he will have to consider raising money in order to ensure that staff are protected.
Last week, the head of the standards watchdog said British politics was at a "dangerous moment", with the level of personal abuse aimed at politicians and candidates reaching a "tipping point".
It followed a move by the government announcing an inquiry into intimidation received by MPs.
Mr McCrossan said he wanted to see a conversation taking place about abuse and threats received by representatives in the UK's devolved assemblies as well.
"There needs to be some consideration given to all elected representatives, and constituency staff on the frontline who are always in the office even when MLAs and MPs aren't," he said.
"It's time MLAs and elected representatives spoke out against this, it shouldn't be happening no matter who they are."

Det Supt Hibbert told the hearing that a "conservative estimate" was that 25,000 documents in relation to the police investigation were now held on the force's database.
"We continue to talk with the families and I'm extremely grateful for their continued support and patience in what continues to be upsetting circumstances for them all," he said.
Mr Hill has been questioned voluntarily under caution by police.
The vintage Hawker Hunter jet crashed on to the dual carriageway while performing a looping manoeuvre during the Shoreham Airshow nearly two years ago.
West Sussex coroner Penelope Schofield said the inquest may have to be suspended pending the outcome of any criminal prosecution.
But she assured families at the hearing that she was was monitoring the police investigation.
She told them: "I want to assure you I am satisfied that they are moving forward as quickly as they can in quite difficult circumstances and they are hoping to bring their investigation to a conclusion as quickly as possible."
Speaking on behalf of the families after the hearing, Gerard Forlin QC said the families were very disappointed.
He said the crash had taken place more than 22 months ago.
"However what they want is a full, frank, thorough and fearless investigation into this incident," he added. "And of course for that they will wait as patiently as they can." | An SDLP MLA has said he will have to review security at his constituency offices after one of his staff was threatened by a member of the public.

Mike Hall was competing in the Indian Pacific Wheel Race when he was involved in a collision with a car on Friday.
The race began on 18 March and was due to finish on Friday. Mr Hall, from Harrogate, had been in second place.
Race organisers said his death was a "great loss to the global cycling community". The race, from Perth to Sydney, was cancelled after the crash.
ACT Policing - the community policing arm of the Australian Federal Police - and race organisers are investigating.
The crash happened on Friday morning on the Monaro Highway at Royalla, south of Canberra, in New South Wales.
Mr Hall - who won the 2012 World Cycle Race - died at the scene.
His family has been informed, police said.
The 35-year-old had been living in Monmouthshire, South Wales.
Mr Hall founded the annual Transcontinental Race - an ultra-endurance across Europe.
In 2013 and 2016 he won the Tour Divide mountain bike race in the Rocky Mountains.
In a statement ,the organisers of the 5,450km, unsupported IPWR said Mr Hall "leaves an incredible legacy".
They said he "revelled in the spirit and adventure of ultra-endurance cycling events", and praised his efforts in "both raising money and the spirits of others".
Ultra-triathlete Sean Conway said on Twitter: "Today is a very, very sad day. Cycling has lost a legend.
"Ride in Peace Mike Hall. We'll miss you so much."

A British cyclist has been killed during a race in Australia, police have confirmed. |
Provide a concise overview of the following information. | The skeletal remains of the woman were found by workers at a building site in Angel Meadow, near the city centre, in January 2010.
She had a fractured neck and jaw and suffered a violent death, police said.
The head of Greater Manchester Police's cold case review unit said they would "never give up hope".
"I think she was strangled and beaten about the head and then unceremoniously wrapped in a carpet and dumped on a derelict building site. No-one deserves that," Martin Bottomley said.
"She deserves a proper burial, which she's now had, and she also deserves justice."
He appealed for people to help identify the woman who, despite facial reconstruction by forensic experts in 2011 and DNA and isotope testing, remains unknown.
"This lady might have [been] put out of somebody's mind temporarily but she will never be forgotten.
"There will be a family member out there somewhere who knows who she is and who can unlock that key and identify her and perhaps that will lead to the murderer.
"We are determined to get a just outcome for the victim, and for any family member out there, and we will never give up hope."
Post-mortem tests revealed fractures to her neck and jaw and that she may have been sexually assaulted.
Her body was found alongside a green pinafore dress with large buttons, a jumper, bra and a pair of stiletto shoes, and a Guinness sign. Three different carpets - orange, blue and dark blue - were also found.
Tests have established she was aged between 18 to 35 and is most likely European but could have come from the Middle East or Indian subcontinents.

Emergency services, including HM Coastguard and the RNLI, were called to Trevaunance Cove at 18:25 BST.

Police are not treating the death as suspicious and the next of kin have been informed.
Thousands of samples were taken from members of the Yanomami tribe, in 1967 for genetic testing.
A Yanomami shaman, Davi Kopenawa, said the blood would be buried with special prayers.
He said his people had been horrified to discover it had been kept in freezers far from home for years.
Davi Kopenawa said, "I was 10 or 11, and the non-Indians [American scientists] came to our community. We had four different villages there who lived with a lot of missionaries. The missionaries told the village elders that we had to give blood."
In return, he said, the American scientists gave the Yanomami pots, pans, fishing hooks, rope, matches and knives.
"An [American] anthropologist talked to us about the blood, this blood that they should not have taken and we should not have let them take. That is how I remember it," Mr Kopenawa added.
He and a representative of Yanomami communities across the border in Venezuela went to the United States to talk to the American anthropologists to ask for the return of the blood.
He spent years pushing for the return of the samples.
Eventually, in May 2010 five research centres in the United States which had kept Yanomami blood for decades agreed to a proposal by the Brazilian government to return the blood to the tribe.
Mr Kopenawa said the scientists had not specified how the blood was used at the time.
"The white man tricked us so that they could take it away," he said. "The blood belongs to our people. We have the right to have it back."
The researchers, led by geneticist James Neel and anthropologist Napoleon Chagnon had been doing research to see if the Yanomami were direct descendants of the first people to cross the Bering Strait from Asia into the Americas thousands of years ago.
According to Survival International, when a Yanomami dies, the body is cremated and it is essential no physical remains or possessions of the dead are kept.
The Yanomami believe this is so that the dead person can depart and separate the world of the living from the world of the dead.
Mr Kopenawa said the blood would be taken to Yanomami territory on Friday to one of the villages where it was extracted in northern Brazil for a special ritual with other religious leaders and for prayers to mark its return. | Police say they will never give up trying to identify a woman whose body was found in Manchester about 30 years after she was killed.

Give a short summary of the provided document. | Roberto Calderoli, from the anti-immigration Northern League, told a rally that the success of Integration Minister Cecile Kyenge encouraged "illegal immigrants" to come to Italy.
Ms Kyenge is an Italian citizen born in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
It is the latest in a series of rows over racism in Italy.
"I love animals - bears and wolves, as everyone knows - but when I see the pictures of Kyenge I cannot but think of, even if I'm not saying she is one, the features of an orangutan," Mr Calderoli said in a speech to a rally in the northern city of Treviso on Saturday.
He also said Ms Kyenge should be a minister "in her own country".
Mr Calderoli's words ignited a storm of criticism on social media and from political leaders.
Prime Minister Enrico Letta said the comments went "beyond all limits" and he offered "full solidarity and support to Cecile".
At first Mr Calderoli offered only a qualified apology, saying his words were part of a larger debate about immigration.
But by Sunday evening, he told the Italian news agency Ansa that he had called Ms Kyenge himself to apologise.
Ms Kyenge is a Congolese-born doctor who has lived in Italy since 1983.
The Northern League has expelled a local politician who suggested on Facebook that someone should rape Ms Kyenge so that she "can understand what victims of atrocious crimes feel".
And a Northern League member of the European Parliament was expelled from his party grouping after he said Ms Kyenge wanted to impose "tribal traditions" in Italy.

"Tom is a character, a voice in the changing room, he's played at the top of this league last year and he gives us that vital experience," said Wilder.
"It's been difficult with Evan Horwood [being injured] and Gregor Robertson [played out of position]. We brought Enda Stevens in, who's a young player, but maybe at this period of the season, we need more of a rounded, experienced footballer.
"Over the past three or four weeks, you look for reasons [for the defeats] and maybe we haven't had enough competition in key areas. With Lee Collins and Darren Carter coming back [from injury] and these two additions, our group looks a lot stronger."

The boat, with 25 people on board, overturned on Thursday while it was conducting tests near Zhangjiagang, in Jiangsu province.
Eight foreigners were among those on board, including Singaporean, Indian, Malaysian and Japanese nationals.
Three people have been rescued, and the boat has been hauled out of the water.
The foreigners on board were four Singaporeans, one Malaysian, one Indonesian, one Indian and one Japanese, state-run news agency Xinhua reported.
The three people rescued were all Chinese, Xinhua added.
Flooded 'within seconds'
The tugboat, the 30-metre (98-foot) long Wanshenzhou 67, was undergoing tests, with the ship's owner and a team of engineers on board.
The Wanshenzhou 67 was registered in Singapore.
One survivor who was rescued early on Friday, Wang Chenhua, said they had been taking the vessel for a trial voyage.
Mr Wang, who was in the cockpit with a 60-year-old Japanese engineer acting as his translator, said that soon after they had conducted a load test for the boat's main engine, the boat "suddenly turned over" to the left.
He said water rushed into the cockpit which was fully flooded "within 20 seconds". He survived by holding onto a hydraulic pump that was not submerged.
Mr Wang added that he had tried to hold on to the Japanese engineer, but they were separated as the boat sank further.

"The points were going to be the targets for the day, and the performance would be secondary to that.
"Ultimately, it was the win we wanted and the win we deserved.
"I thought we were brilliant in the first half, but we were poor in the second. It felt two days long and we looked anxious and nervous.
"We have been in good from lately, so we will go into next week with the belief that we can see off the problems we are facing and enjoy the rest of the season."
Newport manager Warren Feeney told BBC Wales Sport:
"We lost the game in the first half today and I can take people having bad games but I can't take people having no desire and no hunger and unfortunately today in the first half we showed that.
"Without a doubt it was the worst 45 minutes since I've been here.
"I don't want to lose football games.
"It's a mentality thing for me. You can't get into a lull of losing football matches and they've had it all season unfortunately.
"I've every confidence we will stay up but you shouldn't just be buzzing to stay up."
Coates replaces Glen Harris, who left the club on Sunday.
The 25-year-old was previously head coach of Leeds United's reserves side, before joining the Belles in 2014.

"I'm delighted to have been given the chance to take charge of a team with such a great history in the women's game," said Coates.
"The club have supported me throughout my development and I'm looking forward to leading the team forward.
"We now have to focus on developing some momentum for the second half of the season."

What is the summary of the document provided? | The Budget change broke a manifesto pledge - with one Conservative whip saying ministers should apologise.
But Mrs May said the poorest workers would pay less and the change would "close the gap in contributions".
She said a bill to bring in the change would come in the autumn - not the summer as the Treasury earlier briefed.
The change will see millions of self-employed workers pay an average of £240 a year more but ministers say those earning £16,250 or less will see their NI contributions fall.
Think tank backs NI rise
Labour and the Liberal Democrats criticised the change - as did more than a dozen Conservative MPs, including Iain Duncan Smith, John Redwood, Anna Soubry and Dominic Raab.
At a press conference following the EU summit the prime minister rejected suggestions the policy had broken a manifesto commitment, arguing the legislation brought in to "honour" that pledge related only to "class one" NI contributions, covering 85% of workers.
"We did make some difficult decisions in the Budget yesterday," she said, adding that those decisions had allowed them to fund technical education, to open more than 100 new free schools, as well as meeting social care demands and investing in the long-term productivity of the economy.
The shift towards self employment was "eroding the tax base", she argued.
"Is it fair? I think it is fair to close the gap in contributions between two people doing the same work and using the same public services to make the same contribution to wider society."
The prime minister said the "full effects" of the change would be set out in a paper in the summer alongside "some changes we plan to make on rights and protections for self-employed workers and people would be able to look at the paper and "take a judgement in the round". The chancellor would "listen to the concerns" raised by MPs and business.
BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg said that, while the Treasury had briefed on Thursday morning that legislation to enact the National Insurance change would be brought forward in the summer, Downing Street was now saying it would be in the autumn.
The change was supported by some economic commentators. The Resolution Foundation think tank called it "welcome and progressive", while the Institute for Fiscal Studies suggested further rises were needed.
But among Conservative MPs criticising the measure was Guto Bebb, a government whip and minister in the Wales Office.
He told BBC Radio Cymru: "I believe we should apologise. I will apologise to every voter in Wales that read the Conservative manifesto in the 2015 election."
The Conservatives' last general election manifesto explicitly ruled out rises in National Insurance, VAT and income tax during the lifetime of the current Parliament.
During the campaign, then Prime Minister David Cameron continually repeated the commitment in public and contrasted it with the "jobs tax" which he said people could expect under Labour.
Conservative MP Anne Marie Morris wrote in the Telegraph: "The changes to National Insurance defy belief! What did the chancellor think he was doing? Increasing the rate of 'Class 4' contribution from 9 per cent to 11 per cent over two years!
"At least he kept his word and abolished 'Class 2' contributions which was unfair, not well understood and not related to income or profit.
"But while Class 4 contributions are profit related and therefore 'fairer', this was I suspect not the reason for the change but a post-decision marketing strap line.
"It has all the hallmarks of the 'pasty tax' own goal."
In the wake of Mr Hammond's Budget announcement, ministers argued that legislation enshrining the manifesto commitment in law - approved by Parliament in 2015 - only referred to National Insurance contributions paid directly by employers and their employees.
Wednesday's changes would see the 9% rate of Class 4 National Insurance contributions currently paid by those self-employed people earning between £8,060 and £43,000 go up to 10% in April 2018 and to 11% in April 2019.

He admitted he was in the front passenger seat but said he did not see the couple involved in sexual activity.
Mr Lucas is one of four men on trial. All deny misconduct in a public office.
Another officer, Adrian Pogmore, 51, has pleaded guilty to the charge. He also admitted he knew the couple through the "swinging scene" and that he had sex with the woman.
More stories from across Yorkshire
Mr Lucas, who was honoured for helping two boys attacked in Edlington in 2009, said his colleague Pogmore was in the back seat of the chopper and was operating the camera.
Giving evidence, Mr Lucas said he did not recall much of the flight but remembered seeing a naked woman with a man in a Manchester United shirt for a "matter of seconds".
Pogmore made four recordings from the aircraft between 2007 and 2012, including two of people sunbathing naked, one of a couple of naturists and another of his friends having sex in their back garden, the jury was told.
When Mr Lucas, who was in the helicopter for three of the four incidents, was asked if he saw "any of the actual sex" by his defence barrister Paul Greaney QC, he replied: "I did not".
He told the court he had little recollection of what he said at the time he caught a glimpse of the naked woman but said it was along the lines of: "Oh my god, Poggy."
Mr Lucas said he was focused on searching for nuisance motorbikes on waste ground nearby.
Mr Greaney asked: "Did you do anything at all to assist Adrian Pogmore in what he was doing?"
"Absolutely not," he replied.
Mr Lucas said he had been on flights before which had "stumbled across" naked people and recalled an incident over Barnsley when the helicopter flew over a couple having sex in a field.
Pogmore, of Guilthwaite Crescent, Whiston, Rotherham, has admitted four charges of misconduct in a public office.
Mr Reeves, of Farfield Avenue, Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, denies two counts of the same charge.

Give a concise summary of the following information. | In front of 16,000 fiercely partisan fans in a purpose-built outdoor arena, Frampton controlled the fight throughout and floored the champion in the fifth round.
Martinez demonstrated remarkable durability to make it to the final bell but the judges scored the fight 119-108, 119-108, 118-111 - all in Frampton's favour.
The 27-year-old had knocked Martinez out last February to win the European crown, only for the Spaniard to win the IBF title six months later.
"I've got the world title!" Frampton told BBC Radio 5 live after adding the IBF belt. "I feel a bit emotional - it has been a long time coming, it has been a hard road.
"I intend to hang on to it for a very long time."
Frampton is managed and promoted by former featherweight world champion Barry McGuigan, who was such a unifying force during Northern Ireland's Troubles in the 1980s, and trained by Barry's son Shane.
McGuigan Sr said after the fight: "I love him like a son - he's a part of me and I know how talented he is.
"He showed us his bravery tonight and he certainly showed the skills he's got. He's really got a tremendous future ahead of him."
The victory for the Tiger's Bay native, which makes him his country's first world champion since fellow Belfast fighter Wayne McCullough in 1996, provided more cause for celebrations across Northern Ireland and beyond.
As well as the United Kingdom and Ireland, the fight was broadcast in the United States, South America, China, Japan and the Middle East.
As for McGuigan Sr, he will be relieved as well as elated, having pumped a huge amount of money into the event (it was the country's biggest gate for a boxing match by some distance) and brought Martinez over from Spain at considerable cost.
Martinez had defended his title twice since stopping Jhonatan Romero last August and promised to gain revenge over Frampton, the only man to knock him out in 35 previous fights as a professional.
But overlooked by the famous Harland and Wolff cranes, next to where the Titanic was built and launched a little more than 100 years ago, Frampton was not to be denied.
He won a cagey first round courtesy of a couple of snappy right crosses before the fight opened up in the second, Martinez trying his luck with some swinging right hands and Frampton having success on the counter.
Frampton, fighting on the back foot for the most part, repeatedly made Martinez look clumsy in the third, suggesting that the champion was starting to unravel.
The challenger continued to control proceedings in the fourth, keeping the stalking Martinez at bay with jabs and two-shot combinations, although Frampton did mix things up with one juddering uppercut.
Martinez was lucky not to be docked a point at the start of the fifth, having hit a prone Frampton on the back of the head. But Frampton exacted sweet revenge, flooring his rival with a short, chopping right towards the end of the round.
Martinez, bleeding from the cut over his left eye, was up almost immediately and straight back at Frampton, but was picked apart some more in the sixth.
The seventh was Martinez's best round of the fight, the Spaniard landing with a couple of those looping right hands. But Frampton was back in control in the eighth, drawing Martinez on to some hurtful left-right combinations.

Frampton was showing a cut over the right eye at the start of the ninth, which was a difficult round to score, and the 10th round was grim stuff as both men traded toe-to-toe on the inside, although Frampton landed the cleaner shots.
A battered and bruised Martinez looked close to folding in the 11th as Frampton rained blows upon him, but the man from Alicante proved that he is as game as they come by extending the contest into the final round.
Martinez looked ready to go again midway through the 12th but was still trading blows when the final bell sounded. But the result was never in doubt.
Frampton is now one of five world champions from the United Kingdom, alongside Carl Froch, Kell Brook, Scott Quigg and Jamie McDonnell, although those last two hold lesser versions of titles.
British fight fans would now like to see Frampton fight Bury's WBA title-holder Quigg but American Chris Avalos is the IBF's mandatory challenger.
Martinez was given special dispensation to fight Frampton instead of Avalos but the 24-year-old Californian is likely to get his chance next spring, especially given that he recently teamed up with British promoter Eddie Hearn.
Quigg, 25, defends his portion of the WBA title (Cuba's Guillermo Rigondeaux is their so-called 'super' champion and regarded as the best in the division) against Belgium's Stephane Jamoye in Manchester on 13 September.
But Frampton, who emerged from his triumphant night with a badly marked face and a damaged hand, will now take a well-earned holiday with his wife Christine and daughter Carla before weighing up his options.

Can you summarize the following paragraph? | Bernard Jordan sparked a police search when he left the care home in Hove to join fellow veterans in June.
Irene Jordan, 88, died on Tuesday - a week after her husband. They were married for more than 65 years.
The couple had been living at The Pines care home in Hove. A commemoration service will be held on 30 January.
Brian Fitch, mayor of Brighton and Hove, said: "They were a very close couple who will both be sadly missed.
"They were a devoted couple. After he had gone, she probably gave up the will."
Mr Jordan died in hospital, aged 90, on 30 December.
In June, he left The Pines and travelled to the D-Day events in Normandy, wearing his war medals.
He joined British veterans, many making the final journey to visit the scene of the invasion and to commemorate their fallen comrades.
Mr Jordan was later made an honorary alderman of Brighton and Hove.
Amanda Scott, managing director of Gracewell Healthcare, which runs The Pines, said: "Irene and Bernie will both be much missed by everyone at the home and our thoughts and prayers go out to their friends and family at this sad time." | The wife of a World War Two veteran who left his nursing home to go to France for D-Day commemorations has died just days after her husband. |

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | Enda Dolan, 18, from County Tyrone, was in his first term at Queen's University when he was struck by a van on Belfast's Malone Road in October 2014.
David Lee Stewart, 31, of Gray's Park Avenue, admitted a series of charges linked to the teenager's death.
He will spend three and a half years in prison and the same amount of time on licence.
Speaking outside Belfast Crown Court, Enda's father Peter Dolan said the family was "disappointed and disgusted" at the length of sentence handed down.
"Our lives have been ruined, shattered and damaged beyond repair," he said.
Describing Northern Ireland's legal system as "a disgrace", Mr Dolan said: "We have been left with a life sentence. So many parents have stood in our shoes...and many more will in the future, unless something is done to deter individuals from driving under the influence of drink and drugs."
Enda was walking to his student accommodation when a van mounted a footpath and hit him.
He sustained a broken neck and head injuries.
A judge described the death as "senseless and needless".
Stewart was also disqualified from driving for 12 months.
The passenger in the car with Stewart, William Ross Casement, 21, from Belvoir Drive, Belfast, was given 50 hours community service and two years on probation.
He was also disqualified from driving for 12 months.
During his trial, the court heard that Stewart, who had consumed drink and drugs before driving his van, drove with the teenager on the roof of his van for about 800 yards before he stopped.
The court was told Stewart took 13 drinks, including six pints of beer and four Jagerbombs, a mix of a spirit and an energy drink.
Traces of drugs, including cocaine, were also found in his system.
Peter Dolan described Enda as "an adored son, big brother, grandson, boyfriend and friend" who was "so full of excitement during his last three weeks of life since he started Queen's".
He said the student loved to return to his home in Killyclogher at the weekends to see his family and girlfriend before his life was "brutally ended on the the night of his sister's 16th birthday".
"We have to deal with the loss of Enda every hour of every day for the rest of our lives. The missed family celebrations, the Christmases, the 21st birthday he won't have and the wedding and grandchildren that will never be." | A drunk driver who knocked down and killed a student has been sentenced to seven years. |
Can you summarize the following paragraph? | But how many child migrants are there in the camp?
There are no firm figures for the number of people or children living in the Jungle camp.
They are not registered with the French authorities and the numbers are constantly changing as some leave and new people arrive.
But there are estimates.
Officials in Calais conducted a "visual survey" of the Jungle last week and estimated that there are around 6,500 people currently there, 1,200 of them are unaccompanied children.
Charities that work in the camp estimate that there are around 1,000 unaccompanied children out of a population of around 10,000 people living in the Jungle.
An unaccompanied child in this context is anyone under the age of 18, separated from both parents and not being cared for by an adult who in law or by custom has responsibility to do so.
The most vulnerable unaccompanied children are girls, those under the age of 13, and orphans.
The Safe Passage UK charity said it had identified, in August, 387 children who could be resettled in the UK and passed this list to the Home Office.
One hundred and eighty-seven of those children could be resettled under the EU's Dublin regulation, which allows unaccompanied refugee children to be placed in a country where they have a relative who can be responsible for their care.
The rest could be brought to the UK on the basis of an amendment to the Immigration Act, originally put forward by Lord Dubs, which requires the government to arrange for the transfer to the UK of unaccompanied refugee children from Europe.
On the charity's August list, the youngest child was eight years old, but the majority of them were between 14 and 17.
Children seeking asylum have to first apply for asylum in France, and then the claim can be transferred to the UK if they have relatives here.
It is not always easy to assess the claims. While some of the children, especially those who have come from Syria, have some of their identity documents with them, many do not.
The Home Office says it has identified more than 80 unaccompanied children who have been accepted for transfer to the UK from France under the Dublin regulation and nearly all of whom have now arrived in the UK. | Children in the Calais "Jungle" are crossing the Channel to be reunited with their families who have previously made the journey to the UK. |
Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | The 21-year-old, winning only his fifth cap, impressed once again in Saturday's historic 39-28 win over Australia.
"When I look around the dressing room at the quality of individuals and the quality of the preparation we've done, it gives me confidence," the lock said.
"When we have that preparation, I don't think there is any need to be nervous or overwhelmed by the occasion."
Itoje has not lost a match he has started for club or country in over a year, and has won the Grand Slam with England and both the Premiership and European Champions Cup with club side Saracens this season.
He maintained that impressive run on Saturday as England secured their first ever win in Brisbane and just their fourth ever against the Wallabies on Australian soil.
He told BBC Sport: "I've never played the second best team in the world before, so that in itself was something different.
"But I've had enough experience in big games now not to be overawed by occasions like this one."
Fly-half George Ford, who came off the bench in a first-half tactical switch to help steer England to victory, praised the man-management of coach Eddie Jones.
Ford has endured a mixed season for club and country and was left out of the starting XV, with Owen Farrell and Luther Burrell preferred in midfield, but helped set up two of England's three tries after replacing the latter, with Farrell moving to inside centre.
"To have someone there who supports his players is brilliant, and you try and pay that back by the way you are around camp, and the way you go out and perform on the weekend," he told BBC Sport.
"He [Jones] challenges you in training, he's honest with you in one-to-one meetings, and that's all you want as a player really."
England now have a chance to wrap up the series in the second Test Melbourne, and become the first English side to win a series in Australia.
"All we are looking forward to now is Melbourne," Ford added. "We're going to keep our feet on the ground and make sure we keep getting better." | Maro Itoje says he is not "overawed" by high-profile matches because of the confidence he has in his team-mates. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | Davies, who was injured in last month's defeat by Southend, has scored 11 goals in 30 games this season.
And the 29-year-old believes his injury held up contract negotiations.
"It's something me and the manager have been talking about for a couple of weeks, and if it wasn't for my injury, we probably would have got the deal done sooner," he told the club website.
"I've been focusing on rehabilitating properly from that, then we got down to business to get the deal done.
"The injury came at a difficult time, so for the gaffer to still want to give me a new deal was great."
Its defence ministry said that following an investigation it believed Austria had been misled over the purchase price.
It could sue the two companies for 1.1bn euros, it said.
Airbus said the allegations had taken it by surprise and that it was "a political manoeuvre".
Airbus and Eurofighter charged nearly 10% of the purchase price for offset deals, which involve work for local contractors, said the defence ministry's report. This should have been charged separately, it said, and means it is suing for at least 183.4 million euros.
It says the 1.1bn euro figure is its calculation for the difference in price between the Eurofighter and a cheaper option.
Defence minister Hans Peter Doskozil said the investigation suggested "Austria would not have decided to purchase the Eurofighter in 2003 without the fraudulent deception".
Austria ordered 24 Eurofighter jets in 2002 but reduced its order to 15. It then ordered a review of the purchase in 2012 in light of bribery allegations.
Mr Doskozil said the first order of Eurofighters used by the German army are "very expensive during operation" and that the Eurofighter programme would cost Austria 80 million euros in 2017. He will commission a new report to find a cheaper alternative, he said.
The Eurofighter programme is a joint venture between Airbus, BAE Systems and Italy's Leonardo to provide a modern fighter jet for the UK, Germany, Spain and Italy, as well as other buyers. The UK bought 160 of the aircraft.
"Airbus is surprised by media reports of a criminal complaint and alleged repayment claims on the part of the Austrian Ministry of Defence against Airbus Defence and Space and Eurofighter," Airbus said in a statement.
"We have received neither notification of a criminal complaint nor any other information regarding this matter or the ministry's accusations. These new accusations have never been raised before; we thus cannot see any foundation in particular for the allegations of bad faith and fraud. Rather, they appear to be contrived, and we deny them vigorously.
"We see today's announcement as a political manoeuvre. We are, of course, continuing our policy of actively supporting the Austrian authorities in investigating concrete suspicions."
The infant was born to a woman named as Juli, who went into sudden labour a week before she was due to give birth.

The Diocese of Coventry said Bishop Colin, 72, died at home on 10 July having been diagnosed with a brain tumour 22 months earlier.
He was the Bishop of Coventry from 1998 to 2008.
Preaching the sermon at Coventry Cathedral, the Bishop of Warwick said Bishop Colin "had a great gift of friendship".
During the service, The Right Reverend John Stroyan, who was appointed by Bishop Colin in 2005, said: "He had a way of making people feel good about themselves, and of believing in their God-given potential.
"Colin was clear that Christ belongs to the world not the Church.
"His international concerns were reflected in the House of Lords where he urged the House to understand better the religious issues that are integral to the Middle East.
"Colin demonstrated that loving our neighbour is not just a local matter, it involves crossing boundaries of race of culture and of faith."
The Most Reverend Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, who served under Bishop Colin for nine years in the Diocese of Coventry, said he would "miss him".
The Archbishop said: "Colin Bennetts was an outstanding bishop, a wonderful parish priest and an exceptional friend and mentor to a huge number of people.
"Having known him at Coventry I was indebted beyond measure to him for wise advice and faithful prayer.
"Travelling with him was a pleasure, observing him a lesson. He faced, with his wonderful family, his last illness with faith in Christ.

What is the summary of the given information? | Sir Nicholas Soames, who represents Mid Sussex, said he had spoken to Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin urging the measure.
He said: "There have been too many cases where passengers on the railway are treated extremely disrespectfully by staff simply not turning up."
A Southern Rail spokeswoman said there were "many reasons why this happens".
Sir Nicholas said: "Where the rail companies allow this to happen they should be fined for it, because I think if you consider how expensive it is to travel on the train it is a contract between the passenger and the rail operator.
"And it is one which the rail operator regularly breaks."
He added: "If you ask anyone who commutes or travels extensively on the train in the Southern region they will tell you it happens very regularly."
A Southern Rail spokeswoman said when services are disrupted it can lead to train crews being displaced and unable to crew their next scheduled service.
She said: "Sickness, annual leave, reliance on taxis and occasional rostering errors also all have an effect on the ability to crew every train every day.

"To be honest, I wasn't surprised. We didn't think we would make the flight because we were in the queue for such a long time."
After finding out they would not be departing for Dusseldorf as planned, the group joined "another queue the length of the airport" to get a number to rebook.
"It was chaos, people running about all over the place trying to rebook," Thomas said.
"There were lots of people everywhere. There was nowhere to sit, so people were just lying on the floor, sleeping on yoga mats."
Airport staff had handed out the yoga mats, as well as thin blankets, for people who were stuck there overnight, she added. Thomas also said one of the shops at the airport sold out of food.
The problem has been caused by a worldwide systems failure, which BA said is believed to have been caused by a power supply issue.
Thomas and her team-mates had been booked on to another flight out of Birmingham, but that was also cancelled.

Summarize the information in the following document. | The research, published in The Lancet medical journal, says two-thirds of men in China now start to smoke before 20.
Around half of those men will die from the habit, it concludes.
The scientists conducted two nationwide studies, 15 years apart, covering hundreds of thousands of people.
In 2010, around one million people in China died from tobacco usage. But researchers say that if current trends continue, that will double to two million people - mostly men - dying every year by 2030, making it a "growing epidemic of premature death".
While more than half of Chinese men smoke, only 2.4% of Chinese women do.
The study was conducted by scientists from Oxford University, the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and the Chinese Center for Disease Control.
But co-author Richard Peto said there was hope - if people can be persuaded to quit.
"The key to avoid this huge wave of deaths is cessation, and if you are a young man, don't start," he said.
In many parts of China, meals often fit a comfortable pattern. After putting down their chopsticks, men commonly push their chairs back from the table and light cigarettes. No wonder China has struggled to impose a smoking ban in public places. Here, relationships are often built amid clouds of smoke.
Expensive brands of cigarettes, often decorated with gold detailing on the cartons, are given as gifts. And ordinary brands are affordable to all but the very poor, costing just 2.5 yuan ($0.4; £0.25) a pack.
In a country where smoking is so ingrained in daily life, few understand the harmful effects of tobacco use. According to the World Health Organization, only 25% of Chinese adults can list the specific health hazards of smoking, from lung cancer to heart disease.
Perhaps it should come as no surprise, then, that only 10% of Chinese smokers quit by choice. Instead, most are forced to give up their cigarettes because they're too sick to continue.
The country that will not quit smoking
While smoking rates have fallen in developed countries - to less than one in five in the US - they have risen in China, as cigarettes have become more available and consumers richer.
China is the world's biggest consumer of cigarettes - one in three cigarettes smoked globally is in China - as well as the world's biggest tobacco producer.
More than 300 million people - about a quarter of the population - smoke, with the average smoker consuming 22 cigarettes a day.
Authorities have shown concern over the rise, with Beijing even introducing a public smoking ban. But efforts have been hampered by the habit's popularity, and its usefulness as a source of tax revenue - the government collects about 428bn yuan (£44bn, $67bn) in tobacco taxes each year.
Globally, tobacco kills up to half of its users, according to the World Health Organization. | A new study has warned that a third of all men currently under the age of 20 in China will eventually die prematurely if they do not give up smoking. |
Please summarize the passage below. | Rainwater has leaked into a number of attic rooms, with repairs now needed to replace 35 tonnes of Welsh slate covering the house's north west wing.

The country was due to enforce a ban on the devices on 6 August, but this did not come into effect.
The Communications and Information Technology Commission (CITC) said there had been "positive developments" in its talks with the device's manufacturer, Research in Motion (RIM).
RIM has yet to comment on the matter.
"In light of the positive developments toward addressing some of the organisational requirements by the providers, the commission [has] decided to allow the BlackBerry Messenger service to continue," the CITC said.
Saudi Arabia - and an increasing number of other nations - are unhappy that BlackBerry handsets automatically scramble messages and send them to servers in Canada.
Authorities have said they want access to these messages - and the keys to decrypt them - to counter terrorism and criminal activity.
So far, Research In Motion has resisted any attempts to force it to open up its data.
However, the plan being discussed with Saudi Arabia reportedly involves placing a BlackBerry server in the country.
On Saturday, a Saudi official told the Associated Press news agency that tests were under way to see how such a server would work.
An agreement could help overcome similar concerns in other countries, such as India and the United Arab Emirates.
The UAE has said it will ban Blackberry e-mail, messaging and web browsing in October.

Russia dislikes Montenegro's policy of increasing ties with Nato and the EU.
There have also been arrests in Montenegro and Serbia over a suspected plot to topple outgoing Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic.
In addition, a large arms cache was found near the family home of Serbian PM Aleksandar Vucic on Saturday.
There are suspicions that the arms were to be used in an assassination attempt against Mr Vucic, a pro-EU reformer, though he himself played down that theory.
In Montenegro, officials have accused Russia of plotting against Mr Djukanovic.
The four-day Nato exercise in Montenegro began on Monday, and involves Nato's Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC).
Focused on the Niksic area, the aim is to practise for a major flood or chemical emergency.
There are 680 participants, from 32 Nato and partner countries. Israel, Azerbaijan and Kosovo are among the non-Nato countries involved.

Montenegro: Nato's newest and last member?
Montenegro and Nato: Foes to friends?
Russian Security Council chief Nikolai Patrushev paid an unexpected visit to Belgrade last week.
The Serbian-Russian military exercise, starting on Wednesday, is called "Slavic Brotherhood 2016". Units from Belarus will also take part.
The Russian military says the drills will take place near Belgrade, until 15 November.
Serbia has, nevertheless, increased ties with Nato over the years, including membership of the alliance's Partnership for Peace programme.
Nato's bombing of Serbia and Montenegro in 1999 and its intervention in Kosovo left a legacy of bitterness among Serb nationalists. Russia has forged close ties with some of them, reviving centuries-old pan-Slavic patriotism.
Nato's action resulted in the ousting of former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic. The nationalist leader died in 2006 while on trial in The Hague for war crimes.
Since splitting from Serbia in 2006 Montenegro has forged close ties with the EU and Nato. It is expected to join Nato early next year, but EU membership is not likely before 2020.
Montenegro, with a population of some 630,000, has in recent years seen an influx of Russian money, homebuyers and tourists.
Pearson has been hit by falling enrolments in education in the US and changes to education policy in the UK.
The firm employs about 5,000 people in the UK and about 10% of those jobs are expected to be affected by the cuts.
The majority of the cuts are expected to be completed by the middle of this year. Pearson also warned that profits would be lower next year.
Pearson said it expected underlying operating profits for 2015 of about £720m, but warned its profits in 2016 were expected to drop to between £580m and £620m, before the costs of the restructuring are taken into account.
"The cyclical and policy related challenges in our biggest markets have been more pronounced and persisted for longer than anticipated," says chief executive John Fallon.
"In combination, these factors have reduced Pearson's operating profit by approximately £230m from its peak. We over-estimated how quickly those markets would return to sustainable levels of revenues and profits from their peak".
Pearson said the restructuring is expected to cost it £320m. However, it said the shake-up of its business, combined with new product launches and the easing of pressure in the key US and UK markets, meant profits should be at or above £800m by 2018.
The restructuring will include merging all Pearson's businesses producing courseware material for teachers. Its assessment businesses in North America will also be integrated.
Its further education establishments in South Africa and the UK will shift focus to online rather than direct delivery, and there will be savings in areas such as technology, finance and HR.

Guy added to his 400m freestyle and 100m butterfly successes with gold in the 200m freestyle final, ahead of Stephen Milne and Robbie Renwick.
His time of one minute 45.19 seconds was within the Rio qualification mark.
"This has given me so much confidence and hopefully I can take that into Rio," Guy told BBC Sport.
Eight British swimmers - Guy, Adam Peaty, Andrew Willis, Max Litchfield, Ben Proud, Siobhan-Marie O'Connor, Jazz Carlin and Hannah Miley - secured automatic qualification for Rio 2016 through the trials.
Up to 22 further names could be added to the line-up this week.
The 200m freestyle event was one of the most keenly contested finals of the week, with all swimmers aware that a top-four finish would virtually guarantee them a place in the Rio 4x200m medley relay squad.
Guy, Milne, Renwick and Duncan Scott, who was fourth - and also won the 100m freestyle title earlier in the week - are in prime position for selection.
"Rio is going to be my third Olympics and this relay squad has so much potential," Renwick told BBC Sport.
"Yes, we won world gold last year, but we're not going to take anything for granted because we know other nations will come on strongly this year."
O'Connor also secured her third title with victory in the 100m breaststroke final on a busy night for the swimmer, who was also fourth in the 100m butterfly.
The London Olympian won the 100m freestyle final and her favoured 200m individual medley (IM) event earlier in the week, and admitted she has some difficult decisions to make about what to compete in at the Rio Games.
"The 200m IM is the priority and I don't want anything to distract from that, but it's good to get a race or two in before," she said.
"I'll sit down with my coach over the next couple of months to help decide, but it's always nice to have options."
Alys Thomas of Wales was the surprise winner of the 100m butterfly final in a time of 58.66 seconds, which was a personal best but over a second outside the qualifying mark.
"That's not something I was expecting because I'm more of a 200m swimmer, so I'm really happy," she said.
"I know I'm an underdog, not one to watch, but I like that position and whether the selectors will take me, I don't know, but I've done my best."
Double European Games champion Luke Greenbank, 18, secured his maiden senior British title with gold in the 200m backstroke final.

Dolgellau, Holyhead and Llangefni will shut when alternative venues are found.
Carmarthen's civil, family, tribunal and probate hearing centre is being retained, while cases at the town's law courts will be sent elsewhere, which is also the case in Prestatyn.
The UK government consultation on plans to close 91 courts and tribunals in England and Wales ended last October.
It believes 97% people could drive to court within an hour, but a map produced by the Law Society suggests it would take longer for those who rely on public transport.
Carmarthen East and Dinefwr MP Jonathan Edwards, who has led the campaign to retain court services in the town, said Thursday's announcement was a partial victory.
"Today's news is bitter sweet in that we will see the closure of that iconic Guildhall courthouse but our efforts, including those of the legal profession, local magistrates and the public at large have succeeded in retaining legal proceedings in the town," said the Plaid Cymru MP.
"This is a significant achievement when we consider the historical and cultural importance of Carmarthen as the judicial capital of west Wales."
But the Labour MP for Anglesey Albert Owen has criticised the decision to close two sites in his constituency.
"This is a devastating blow to the community of Anglesey - I am disappointed in the government's plans to close the courts in Llangefni and Holyhead and in the manner with which they opted to announce this decision.

Please summarize the document below. | Grainger, 40, and Thornley, 28, re-established their partnership in the double scull after missing out on GB's women's eight for the Rio Olympics.
The duo began Sunday's race positively but faded in the closing stages.
Overall it was a positive regatta for the British team, who won two golds, three silvers and three bronze medals.
Grainger and Thornley had their partnership dissolved in May and were given the opportunity to be considered for the eight.
However, they were not among the 43 rowers named in the Team GB squad on 9 June.
British Rowing performance director Sir David Tanner said earlier this month it was his "confident intention" to get them back into the doubles boat for Rio.
Earlier in Poznan, Britons Helen Glover and Heather Stanning saw off a late surge from New Zealand duo Genevieve Behrent and Rebecca Scown to retain their women's pair's title in a new World Cup best time of six minutes 52.79 seconds.
"We didn't want a race with all the bells and whistles today and we've been training pretty heavily coming into Poznan", said Glover. 'Over the next few weeks is when we will add those bells and whistles".
Alex Gregory, Mohamed Sbihi, George Nash and Constantine Louloudis won gold for Britain in the men's four.
Britain's former Olympic champion James Cracknell told BBC Sport that Grainger and Thornley had "a lot to do" before Rio.
"I don't know where Katherine and Vicky's heads are at the moment," he said.
"They haven't been rowing together a lot in the double scull and this performance is perhaps just a reflection of where they are at.
"It's not such a bad race given that they haven't spent that much time rowing together.
"Over the next five weeks they need to get their boat speed up to be able rattle crews if they want to get on the podium in Rio."

Summarize the following content briefly. | Her mother said Eliana, from north London, had been transformed by the operation at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London.
Surgeons said the growth had reached the size of a small football.
The tumour was benign, but it would have been deadly had it continued to grow.
In the summer of 2009, Eliana was not growing properly. Her feet had not grown for a couple of years, she was not eating properly and was tired all the time.
Her father, Paul, thought her stomach felt quite hard. Her doctor agreed and Eliana was sent to hospital for testing.
The results showed she had a massive benign tumour growing in her abdomen.
As it was so large, doctors first tried to shrink it with chemotherapy. However, after a year and a half of therapy the tumour was still growing.
In July 2011, the decision was made to remove the tumour.
Eliana's mother, Tara, said the tumour was "absolutely enormous" and "took up 50% of her abdomen".
She told the BBC: "If she didn't have the tumour removed it would end up just growing and growing and growing and it would kill her just by its size.
"We didn't really have much option - it was a lifesaving operation."
Surgeon Edward Kiely said: "This type of tumour in this location is very rare - fewer than one per year at Great Ormond Street Hospital."
Success was not guaranteed; there was a one in 10 chance of not being able to remove the tumour.
The operation took nine hours. Several pieces of tumour were removed - the largest weighed in at more than 3kg.
Tara said: "By September when Eliana went back to school she was like a new child. She's grown, she's put on loads of weight, she's got loads of energy, she does boxing, netball, she goes swimming."
Eliana still needs scans every three months to see if the tumour returns.
Eliana's story is featured in the BBC2 documentary series Great Ormond Street on Tuesday, May 15 at 2100 BST. | A 10-year-old girl, Eliana Mann, is like a "new child" after having a massive tumour that weighed more than 3kg removed. |
Please summarize the passage below. | The 39-year-old 14-time major winner has not swung a golf club since operations in September and October.
Asked about his return, he said: "I've no answer. Neither does my surgeon or physio. There's no timetable.
"There's nothing I can look forward to, nothing I can build towards. Where's the light at the end of the tunnel? I don't know."
Woods had two operations to alleviate pain from a pinched nerve.
Revealing that he has spent most of his time playing video games, the American said he had not done any rehabilitation work on his back and that physical activities were limited.
"I walk and I walk. I'm just walking, and that's it," said Woods, whose last major victory was at the US Open in 2008.
"It's different from the other surgeries I've had in the past. For nerves there are really no timetables."
Woods, who turns 40 on 30 December, missed the cut at three of the four majors this year and played in only 11 events. He remains on 79 PGA Tour victories.
He played only seven tournaments in 2014, having missed three months of the season after surgery on a pinched nerve in his back in March 2014.
"For my 20 years out here I achieved a lot," he said. "I think pretty much everything beyond this will be gravy. If that's all it entails then I've had a pretty good run. But I'm hoping that's not it.
"I'm hoping I can get out here and compete against these guys. I really do miss it."
He has been named as one of United States captain Davis Love III's assistants for the 2016 Ryder Cup, but said he still hopes to make the team.
Woods has played in seven Ryder Cups, the most recent in 2012 under Love's captaincy.
World number three Rory McIlroy gave Woods his support, posting on social media: "Wishing my idol and friend a speedy recovery. Golf without him doesn't bear thinking about. Hope to see you back on the course soon @tigerwoods."
This is the bleakest picture Woods has ever painted of one of his injuries. He just has to wait for it to heal and it's clearly not done that so far.
He's still saying that he wants to be there at the 2016 Ryder Cup as a player, but with no timetable with regard to his rehabilitation you have to wonder when, and if, he'll come back from this.
If I was a betting man, my money would be on him sitting on a buggy and not having his clubs anywhere near Hazeltine, not just on fitness but on form as well. It's going to be an awful long way back if he's going to make any kind of comeback.
Phillip Begley, 44 of Wellington Road, Bridlington, was found guilty of the manslaughter of Paul Morrison, 51, after a trial at Leeds Crown Court.
The jury heard Begley had punched Mr Morrison, causing him to fall back and hit his head on a pillar.
Mr Morrison died three weeks later in Harrogate Hospital.
Begley carried out the attack in the Wetherspoons Winter Gardens pub in Parliament Street on 1 November.
He was also found guilty and sentenced to six months for assaulting Peter Bell, who was drinking with Mr Morrison at the time.
Mr Bell suffered facial injuries in the attack, which required hospital treatment.
Det Chf Insp Pete Martin, of North Yorkshire Police, said he welcomed Begley's sentence.
"Paul Morrison was a devoted family man whose wife and children have been left heartbroken by the actions of Philip Begley," he said.
"Paul was enjoying a night out with his friends and he never came home, which is a devastating and tragic scenario which no family should ever have to deal with.
"At no time has Begley accepted responsibility for his actions and has forced Paul's family to sit through the anguish of a crown court trial."

Summarize the information given below. | The Universities Superannuation Scheme now has the largest pensions deficit of any UK pension fund after it increased by £9bn last year.
One expert said student fees may have to rise or be diverted from teaching.
But a USS spokesperson said the pensions were "secure, backed by a solid investment portfolio and the strength of sponsoring employers."
The USS funds pensions for academics who are mostly based in the pre-1992 universities, and has more than 390,000 members.
To ensure the fund remains solvent, the USS will have to submit a plan to the pensions regulator to reduce the size of the deficit, which was first reported in The Financial Times.
That could mean cutting the value of future pay-outs, increasing staff contributions or raising employer contributions, putting pressure on university budgets.
John Ralfe, an independent pensions consultant, said: "It seems inconceivable to me that student fees will not have to be diverted into plugging the pension deficit.
"That means either they go up or there is a smaller amount of money that can be dedicated to teaching and research. And obviously the student fees that are paid are for teaching and research, not to pay for the folly of USS betting on equities over the last few years."
The pensions deficit has grown rapidly since 2014, when benefits were reduced for new entrants to plug a £5,3bn deficit.
Mr Ralfe said poor management of the fund was to blame.
"I think the root cause of this is the USS trustees going down to the casino and betting the money that they had been given by universities, betting it on [the stock market]," he said.
Lord Adonis, who helped increase university tuition fees to £3,000 as head of the Number 10 policy unit under Tony Blair, agreed there were "big questions" over the schemes management and it was time for vice chancellors to "get their acts together".
However, he said there was "no reason" for students to fear another rise in tuition fees to cover the costs.
A spokesperson for the USS said investments had outperformed their five-year target by more than £1bn, but the deficit was caused by liabilities growing even more quickly.
"USS pensions are secure, backed by a solid investment portfolio and the strength of sponsoring employers," the spokesperson said.
The USS said that it was backed by universities which had net assets of more than £50bn.
University lecturers balloted for strikes in 2011 and 2014, when earlier changes were made to pensions.
Sally Hunt, general secretary of the University and College Union, said: "Recent years have not been good ones for members of USS as twice they have seen the value of their pensions reduced and been asked to pay more for the privilege." | Universities face a new blow to their finances after the main pension fund deficit soared to £17.5bn. |

Give a brief overview of this passage. | Academics at Teesside University said tests on domestic wastewater showed sustained use of the Class A drug in Middlesbrough and Stockton.
Experts said there was no risk to the public from the amounts discovered, but rather indicated a pattern of use.
Cleveland Police said it was "aware and interested" in the study.
Dr Gillian Taylor, senior lecturer in forensic and analytical science, said: "The results are very interesting because they tell us the trends of drug abuse across the Middlesbrough central and Stockton areas.
"The high levels that we are seeing are comparable with other European cities.
"Middlesbrough, for example, is up to four times smaller than many of the major European cities that have also been tested in this way and yet the results are exactly the same.
"We have focussed on cocaine, but can also see heroin and cannabis markers within the wastewater."
Forensic science student Emma Peacock, who is also working on the ongoing study, added: "We extracted the cocaine from samples we took in the two areas and the concentrations found told us that there is fairly consistent usage in Middlesbrough central and usage that spiked on a weekend in Stockton."
The results showed usage in Stockton ranging from 379mg per 1,000 people on Mondays to 1307mg on Fridays.
While in Middlesbrough, usage fluctuated between 508mg and 707mg per 1,000 people throughout the week.
Identical studies carried out in other European cities showed average daily usage of 191mg per 1,000 people in Berlin, 234mg in Paris and 461mg in Barcelona.
A spokesman for Northumbrian Water, which is responsible for treating wastewater in the north-east of England, said there was no risk to the public from the amounts detected.
He said: "This is wastewater which is discharged to consent levels set by the Environment Agency and it goes back into the natural environment such as rivers and estuaries where it is diluted.
"The traces we are talking about here are absolutely inconsequential and literally a drop in the ocean."
A spokesman for Cleveland Police said: "Officers in our community drugs enforcement team are aware of the research and will take an interest in the findings as and when it is finalised."
It is hoped the results of the study could help to provide a more reliable picture of drug use and aid police in identifying drug hot-spots.
Sandra Danevska, 38, from Hammersmith, west London, accused the man of rape, stabbings and acid attacks.
She also subjected two women he later dated to "a traumatic online campaign".
Danevska, a nanny, used 60 fake names to implicate her ex-lover in a string of crimes, so officers visited his home 42 times, the Metropolitan Police said.
She created scores of bogus social media profiles and bombarded her victim's other girlfriends with "threatening" and "malicious" messages.
Danevska was found guilty on 29 June at Isleworth Crown Court of three counts of stalking involving serious alarm or distress and of two counts of perverting the course of justice.
She was jailed on Friday and issued with a restraining order.
The harassment started in 2011, but the series of hoax social media profiles were only traced to addresses linked to Danevska last year.
Det Con Dean Puzey said: "This woman's actions caused her victims unimaginable distress and the sentence reflects the serious nature of her offending.
"Danevska stalked multiple victims and used social media and the police crime reporting system to make their lives intolerable.

Please summarize the following text. | Ifan Thomas, four, from Denbighshire, had selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) to aid his spastic diplegia three months ago and improve his mobility.
His parents say it is wrong a lack of money prevents other children from being treated, if appropriate.
The Welsh Government said it was monitoring the evaluation of a trial.
Ifan's cerebral palsy caused him to walk up on his toes, meaning it was impossible to walk independently.
SDR, which involves operating on nerves in the spinal column, has helped reduce his muscle stiffness and he now has a better walking pattern.
Although SDR is performed in some English hospitals, Ifan's parents Cathryn and Geraint Thomas, from Pwllglas near Ruthin, took him to St Louis Children's Hospital in Missouri because the surgeon, Dr TS Park, is a specialist and "pioneer" who had performed more than 3,000 of the operations.
As well as SDR, Ifan also had a muscle-lengthening operation on his legs.
Mr Thomas said of his son's condition: "He needs a walking aid. He's on walking sticks at the moment and we're hoping with time we'll be able to take him off them and then he'll be an independent walker.
"The difference in him [since surgery] is amazing. The freedom in his legs, the way that he moves, everything has totally changed."
Mrs Thomas added: "The quality of his walking is amazing to see. He's basically learnt to walk again because he's doing it now in a 'normal' pattern."
She said, in her experience, doctors in the UK were "much more reserved" with treatment options.
"We've asked about several different treatment options that we've read about and heard about and they were very dismissive about the surgeries really," she told BBC Wales' Newyddion 9 programme.
"They do do SDR and other treatments in the this country but I think it's a bit more of a battle to get the right doctor and get the referrals in to go that route."
The Welsh Government took part in an NHS England process called Commissioning through Evaluation to allow assessment of the effectiveness of SDR to decide on future use of the surgery.
It gave £200,000 in 2015-16 to the Welsh Specialised Services Committee to enable 14 Welsh patients to receive SDR in England.
A spokesman said: "We are monitoring progress to date with WHSSC and we are awaiting an evaluation of the programme, which is due to be completed by NHS England by Autumn 2018."
Dr Sue Hurrell, who set up the charity Support 4 SDR Wales after her daughter had the treatment, said the surgery was not suitable for everyone.
"A lot of people have complex cerebral palsy with different types of movement problems and it will only address the spasticity," she said.
"It doesn't fix the brain damage and you remain having some difficulties with movement and with strength quite often.
"We know how beneficial this [surgery] can be for certain children. We're confident that the results will show that and this will be commissioned in the future." | The family of a boy with cerebral palsy who paid £55,000 for a specialist operation in the US want it made available on the NHS in Wales. |

Wes Hoolahan missed a glorious chance shortly before his superb left-footed cross from the right allowed Norwich team-mate Brady to secure the Republic's place in the knockout stages for the first time in their history.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The South Glasgow University Hospital is one of the biggest critical care complexes in Europe.
It has been nicknamed the "Death Star" by locals because of its imposing 14-storey star-shaped design, topped by a landing pad for aircraft.
The hospital cost £842m but the medical equipment inside has brought the final total closer to £1bn. The project was funded by the Scottish government.
The hospital features interactive displays for children developed in collaboration with the Glasgow Science Centre, along with a cinema and roof garden in the children's wing.
Patients enter the main hospital through a dramatic atrium which stretches up the entire height of the building.
There are self-service check-in machines, and nearly all of the 1,100 beds have their own room, with an en-suite bathroom and views out over the city.
A fleet of robots deliver linen and other goods via a network of underground tunnels.
The hospital replaces four ageing hospitals across Glasgow, some of which date back to Victorian times.
Dr David Stewart is the medical director for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and the man in charge of moving 1,000 inpatients and 10,000 staff to the new facility.
"This allows us to truly bring healthcare into the 21st Century," he said.
"For most of my career I've been working out of buildings some of which have been more than 100 years old.
"Frankly, although they were fine in their day, they were not suitable for the type of technologically based healthcare which we need to deliver now."
The new hospital has not been without its problems. Staff say there are not enough car parking spaces and there have been claims that there are not enough beds, despite its huge size.
"We're opening more beds on this site than we're closing on the other sites," said Dr Stewart.
"We'll have 3,500 car parking spaces and 60 buses arriving per hour at peak times."
By converging four hospitals into one, health bosses say they will be able to staff the rotas more easily and make sure specialists are on hand night and day.
This is in response to research which suggests people are more likely to die if they're admitted to hospital over the weekend or during a bank holiday.
The first outpatients will be treated at the hospital on Monday.

The army statement said Ghulam Rasool, known as Chhotu, had been taken for questioning and "combing operations" were continuing in the area.
The bandits have been blamed for hundreds of kidnappings, gun-smuggling and other crimes in recent years.
They operate in a remote region of southern Punjab and have been battling troops for several weeks.
Analysts say the operation against the gang may be an attempt to reassure Chinese investors involved in developing Pakistan's infrastructure.
The surrender comes after army helicopters dropped leaflets on the bandit's island hideout on Tuesday evening telling them to hoist white flags on their boats and row towards the river bank.

Write a summary for this information. | Jackman will start his role next week when he takes over from Kingsley Jones, who has been appointed to lead the Welsh Rugby Union's exiles programme.
"It is a huge honour to join at such an exciting time," said Jackman.
The WRU will take over control of the Dragons on 1 July after Newport RFC shareholders voted through plans for them to do so earlier in June.
A review of the coaching set up at the Dragons was undertaken by WRU and Dragons chief executives Martyn Phillips and Stuart Davies - and involved Lions and Wales head coach Warren Gatland.
Dragons finished second bottom of the Pro12 last season, which included an 12-game losing streak in all competitions.
Jackman played in the Connacht side coached by Gatland and was previously head coach of Top 14 side Grenoble. Gatland recommended his former player for the Dragons role.
"Bernard is an ideal fit for the Dragons and I know he will be work diligently and exhaustively to ensure that the set-up both on and off the pitch at Rodney Parade is of the very highest quality," said Gatland.
"He will be a huge asset to the region, he will create the right environment to allow a talented group to become even better players at the Dragons and he is someone in whom the supporters will find they can put their trust as he will work tirelessly in his pursuit of success."
Jackman says he is relishing the opportunity.
"The region is a hot-bed of Welsh rugby and to join at such a significant moment in time is a challenge I relish. I can't wait to get started and look forward to meeting the playing squad and the backroom team," said the 41-year-old.
"We are obviously at the beginning of a major period of transition off the pitch, but on it we will need to quickly get down to work and reward the faith and obvious passion of our supporters throughout the region."
Jones is the WRU's new performance exiles manager where he will work with another ex-Dragons coach in Paul Turner.
"It has been both a privilege and an honour to lead the region that I grew up in over the last four years," said Jones.
"On a personal level I look forward with a great deal of enthusiasm to a new challenge in a pivotal role within the WRU performance department.
"This is an exhilarating new chapter in my coaching career and I can't wait to start."
The body of 23-year-old Daniel Smith was found by firefighters under a railway bridge at the junction of Trinity Way and Irwell Street at about 01:20 GMT on Wednesday.

Summarize the provided information. | Conservative MP James Cartlidge is to raise the issue during a debate in Parliament.
The late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi supplied arms to the IRA during the Troubles and Libyan Semtex was a key weapon in its bombing campaign.
Libya compensated US victims of terrorism, but UK victims were left out of the deal.
Earlier this year, former prime minister Tony Blair denied trying to prevent IRA victims getting any financial compensation from Libya.
Mr Blair's comments came in written evidence to the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee.
Links between the IRA and Libya can be traced back to 1972 when Gaddafi first praised the group as allies in a struggle against Western imperialism.
Gaddafi later helped provide the IRA with the weaponry they needed to wage an armed campaign that lasted more than 30 years and claimed more than 1,000 lives.
Victims of IRA bomb attacks say they are entitled to money from the frozen bank accounts of Gaddafi.
Towards the end of Gaddafi's rule, relatives of the victims in the 1988 Pan AM flight bombing over Lockerbie received compensation from Libya, which accepted responsibility for the attack.
The Ivorian left the Swans for the Etihad Stadium on a four-year contract in 2015 for a fee worth up to £28m.
Bony, 28, managed only eight goals in 46 appearances for City - more than half of which came as a substitute - and spent last season on loan at Stoke.
His potential return to Wales could depend on the future of Swansea's top scorer last season, Fernando Llorente.
The 32-year-old, who is currently sidelined with an arm injury, has been a transfer target for Chelsea, having worked with the Premier League champions' manager, Antonio Conte, at Juventus.
Swansea have yet to receive a bid this summer for the Spain international, who scored 15 goals last season to help the Welsh club avoid relegation from the top flight.
The Swans did reject offers for Llorente during the January transfer window, and a move for Bony could be seen as insurance should Llorente leave.
Swansea signed England Under-21 striker Tammy Abraham on a season-long loan from Chelsea earlier this summer.
But with club record signing Borja Baston on loan at Malaga, the Swans could be short of forward options if Llorente was to leave.
Before Baston's arrival, Bony was Swansea's record signing when he joined from Vitesse Arnhem for £12m in 2013.
He scored 34 goals in all competitions for the Swans before his move to City.
Bony's high wages at City were thought to be a stumbling block for a potential return to the Liberty Stadium, though Swansea could soon have more money if midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson joins Everton.

Please summarize the passage below. | The easing of sanctions is part of a crucial nuclear deal brokered in 2015 under then-President Barack Obama with five other world powers.
Mr Trump has described the landmark agreement as the "worst deal ever".
However, the US Treasury issued fresh sanctions against specific officials and a Chinese business with links to Iran's missile programme.
The move means that sanctions preventing any US companies selling to or dealing with Iran will remain suspended for the time being.
In return, Iran has pledged to restrict its nuclear activities, reducing its uranium enrichment, plutonium production plans, and allowing inspectors access to facilities.
The new sanctions from the Treasury are much more specific in scope, targeting two senior Iranian defence officials and suppliers of missile equipment, in apparent retaliation for a recent missile test, and for Iran's support of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria.
US citizens and entities are now banned from dealing with the officials and companies involved.
However, the White House stopped short of failing to renew the waivers on more widespread sanctions, which are not permanent and were due to expire this week.
This is the first time Mr Trump has been faced with the issue, after former President Obama renewed the agreement shortly before he left office.
Mr Trump has consistently warned Iran over its missile activity, and has criticised the terms of the deal made by Mr Obama - at one point claiming his "number one priority" if elected would be "to dismantle the disastrous deal".
But the other nations involved in the agreement - including China, Russia, and the UK - believe it is the best way to prevent Iran getting a nuclear weapon.
Since Mr Trump's inauguration, his administration has also continued to certify to Congress that Iran is upholding its part of the deal, which it must do every 90 days.
But in April, Mr Trump ordered a wider review of the nuclear deal, and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Iran "remains a leading state sponsor of terror, through many platforms and methods".
Tehran, however, has always argued it has no nuclear weapon ambitions and is using nuclear technology for energy purposes. | Donald Trump's White House has renewed sanctions relief for Iran, despite the US president's past criticism. |

What is the summary of the following document? | Physical and genetic evidence suggests that cetaceans found in waters off northern Australia are distinct within the humpback family.
This general group grows up to 2.4m in length and inhabits coastal waters from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The evidence for the distinct species in northern Australia is outlined in the academic journal Molecular Ecology.
"Based on the findings of our combined morphological and genetic analyses, we can suggest that the humpback dolphin genus includes at least four member species," said co-author Martin Mendez, from the Wildlife Conservation Society's Latin America and the Caribbean programme.
Dr Mendez added: "This discovery helps our understanding of the evolutionary history of this group and informs conservation policies to help safeguard each of the species."
The authors analysed physical data gathered mostly from beached dolphins and museum specimens. Specifically, the team examined features from 180 skulls covering most of the distribution area of the group in order to compare features across the region.
The researchers also collected 235 tissue samples from humpback dolphins, stretching from the eastern Atlantic to the western Pacific Oceans, analysing both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA to study variation.
Dr Nicholas Higgs, a marine biologist from Plymouth University, told BBC News: "It is an interesting and significant finding and has important conservation implications, namely that the Australian population is a distinct species and should be given conservation status on its own.
He added: "We knew that there were humpback dolphins living off Australia, but didn't realise that they were a separate species from that living in the rest of South-East Asia."

Bournemouth lost a three-goal lead to draw 3-3 with Arsenal in the Premier League on Tuesday.
Hitchin Town player Alfie Barker, 19, posted: "Big hype just for a disappointment like the nine months leading up to your child's birth."
Barker issued an apology on Wednesday for his "disgraceful comments".
He initially claimed his account, which has now been deleted, had been hacked, before apologising.
Barker, who takes mediation to combat the symptoms of ADHD and a mild form of autism, told Stevenage-based newspaper The Comet he was "distraught" at upsetting Arter and his own family, including his aunt who had suffered two miscarriages in the last five years.
"I was watching Arsenal at home and I was hyper. At 3-0 down they weren't playing well and I was annoyed," he said.
"I'd had a couple of beers and was frustrated at the way the team was playing and I just lashed out. I have no idea why I focused on Harry Arter and his family and I am so, so sorry for what I have done.
"It was a moment of madness. It's the worst thing I've ever done in my life, but it is so out of character. I honestly don't know why I did it.
"I also completely understand why Hitchin Town took the action they did and I completely agree they did the right thing."
Seventh-tier Hitchin issued a statement saying: "In the light of the player's irresponsible and anti-social behaviour, we are terminating Alfie Barker's registration and relationship with the club with immediate effect."
Speaking to BBC Sport before the statement was released, Hitchin boss Mark Burke said: "I've seen the tweets and I'm disgusted with them. They're vile and I can't condone them in any way."
Bournemouth have referred the matter to the Football Association, who have contacted Barker for observations in relation to postings on social media.
Barker has seven days from Thursday, 5 January to respond to the FA's request.
Outcomes of previous FA investigations into inappropriate comments on social media have ranged from warnings and fines to bans.
Codicote FC, where Barker is on loan, said: "We have no choice but to terminate our relationship with him.
"We would like to make it clear that Codicote FC cannot and will not tolerate this behaviour; we have a responsibility to our community, supporters and the football family to stamp this behaviour out."

"We are shocked by these recent allegations," a spokesman for Adidas said on Monday.
"Even if we presume his innocence until proven otherwise, our contract with Tyson is currently suspended."
Gay, 30, is the joint-second fastest man ever over 100m. He is also the fastest man in the world this year and won gold in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m at the 2007 World Championships.

News of Gay's positive test emerged as fellow sprinter Asafa Powell was also revealed to have failed a drugs test.
Women's discus thrower Allison Randall on Monday confirmed a positive drugs test from the Jamaican trials, the same day police in Italy raided the hotel rooms of Powell and Sherone Simpson - who has also tested positive - and took away unspecified drugs for analysis.
British sprinter Craig Pickering, who is currently training with Great Britain's bobsleigh squad in a bid to reach the 2014 Winter Olympics, was part of Great Britain's 4x100m relay team that finished third at the 2007 World Athletics Championships behind an American team featuring Gay and a Jamaican team containing Powell.
It's about the athletes taking responsibility for their own careers
"Powell and Gay were people I looked up to in the sport," Pickering, 26, told BBC Radio 5 live.
"I raced them lots of times and never beat them. If they have been doping [throughout their careers], I have lost out financially.
"In 2007, I would've been a world champion and that would've been a life-changing moment."
Denise Lewis, who won heptathlon gold for Britain at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, is pleased the testing system is working but wants athletes to be given more information on supplements.
"I feel very let down, but also relieved as it does not matter who you are, you will get caught," she said.
"Every athlete would appreciate a comprehensive list of supplements they can and can't take so there's no room for any doubt.
"But if you do not know what it is, you should not take it."
Roger Black, a silver medallist in the 400m at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, does not sympathise with athletes who fail a drugs test and believes it is up to them to ensure they do not take a banned substance.

Mr McCall Smith's detective books are set in the southern African country, which gained its independence on 30 September 1966.
Tom Watson said the party was "united" on Europe, with 213 of its 231 MPs backing the Remain campaign.
He claimed Tory "Brexiters" wanted to take workers' rights away and urged undecided Labour MPs to back the EU.
But Vote Leave's Labour chairwoman Gisela Stuart said workers' rights had been "hard won" in the UK, not Europe.
Conservative PM David Cameron backs remaining in the EU but many of his MPs will vote to leave it on 23 June.
Jeremy Corbyn, regarded as the most Eurosceptic Labour leader for 30 years, has so far played a low-key role in the campaign.
In his speech in Coventry, Mr Watson said Mr Corbyn would be "making a major speech very soon setting out in more detail why we should remain".
He said he "respectfully disagreed" with those Labour MPs campaigning to leave the EU and urged those who were undecided to "do the right thing by disagreeing with them and agreeing with me".
Mr Watson said the EU had "protected, enhanced and extended the rights of working people in the UK for a generation or more" on paid holiday, paternity and maternity leave, rights for part-time agency workers, working hours and equal pay for women.
The UK's EU vote: All you need to know
EU for beginners: A guide
UK and the EU: Better off out or in?
"There is no guarantee that those protections will remain in place if the Leave campaigners win the argument and the UK votes to leave the EU," Mr Watson said.
He said Conservatives had opposed the EU's social chapter and claimed "the Tories and the UKIPers and the Brexiters reserve a special sort of disdain for any rules that make the workplace safer".
"My message to anyone who thinks they wouldn't shelve these protections is a blunt one: Don't be so naive. The Tories are itching to get rid of them."
Although Prime Minister David Cameron and his government are campaigning to remain in the EU - four Conservative cabinet ministers and more than 100 Conservative MPs are backing the Exit campaign.
Some Conservative MPs have been angered by the government's decision to put out a 16-page leaflet promoting the UK's EU membership to 27 million homes from next week.
Earlier Bernard Jenkin MP told BBC Radio 4's World at One Mr Cameron was trying to lead the party "in a direction the Conservative Party fundamentally does not want to go".
"How many Conservative MPs would be for Remain if George Osborne and David Cameron themselves were for Leave? Probably not much more than a dozen, or two dozen. The idea that the Conservative Party is evenly split on the European question is wrong."
Meanwhile Vote Leave is backed by a number of Labour MPs, including Gisela Stuart and Labour-supporting businessman John Mills while Grassroots Out's supporters include Labour's Kate Hoey and former Respect MP George Galloway.
Responding to Mr Watson's speech, Ms Stuart said: "Workers' rights are not something that have been gifted to us by the EU, they have been hard won here at home and should be protected by a Parliament that is properly accountable to voters in the UK.
"We have seen in Greece how easily the EU discards with social protections when it is inconvenient to them. If we want to take back control of our economy, our democracy and the £350m we hand to Brussels each week the only safe option is to Vote Leave."
The Trade Union and Socialist Coalition has also launched a bid to be designated as the official campaign to get Britain out of the European Union but the TUC, the main umbrella group for Britain's trade unions, backs staying in the EU. | To mark 50 years of Botswana's independence, author Alexander McCall Smith has written an exclusive short story featuring the two main characters from his No 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series.

Please summarize the following text. | The nine-year-old tabby cat has lived at 10 Downing Street, the official home of the British prime minister, since 2011.
And the "chief mouser" will stay when Theresa May replaces Mr Cameron as the UK government's new leader.
He was adopted from Battersea Dogs and Cats home to help scare mice and rats away from Downing Street.
However, he seems to prefer sleeping and lounging around to catching mice!
He is well loved by lots of people, including US President Barack Obama, and he even has his own social media page.
Noah fell into the 7ft (2m) ditch in Heydon, Cambridgeshire, on 17 August after metal thieves stole the cover, and was rescued by firefighters.
Fans of the donkey raised more than £2,000 to help with vet care, which Noah is still receiving at his stables.
He is said to be "back to his cheeky self".
After six-year-old Noah toppled into the drain in his field, Cambridgeshire Fire Service, stable workers, a vet, and a man with a mechanical digger worked into the night to save him, holding his head above the water.
After he was winched out, it was initially thought Noah had suffered just scrapes and bruises.
However, three days later he "went into shock as donkeys get very stressed", said Elaine Fisher, who runs Lovely View Stables where he is kept.
Noah was admitted to Cambridge University's equine hospital.
A Just Giving page was started with the aim of raising £500 to help fund Noah's care. So far about 150 people have pledged more than £2,200 and many have followed Noah's progress on a Facebook page.
Tina Pankhurst, who is looking after Noah at the stables and started the fundraising drive, said she was "overwhelmed and blown-away by people's generosity".
"He was looked after really well and had exceptional care at the hospital," she said.
"I was amazed at how Noah progressed during those two weeks, but there's still some way to go before his wounds heal."
She said vet bills had come to almost £3,000 so far, although the donkey will need weekly visits for at least the next month.
Noah is owned by All Saints' Church in Melbourn, which is holding collections to help with the bills.
The donkey is well-loved in the village, having starred in the church's Nativity services for the past five years.
Firefighters who rescued Noah were presented with an Animal Hero award by animal rights campaigners Peta for the "skill, determination and compassion" they demonstrated in saving him.
The Brexit referendum and the US election both ratcheted up what it calls its "composite indicator of systemic stress".
It says the 19 countries that use the euro could be hit by trade wars, higher inflation and rising US interest rates.
In a worst-case scenario, the ECB says, this could reignite the 2009 eurozone debt crisis.
It also warned that some stock markets could be heading for sharp falls. "Valuation measures... are in some regions hovering at levels which, in the past, have been harbingers of impending large corrections."
The bank is also worried about political uncertainty within the eurozone, with a constitutional referendum in Italy on 4 December and elections in France and Germany next year.
In its latest twice-a-year Financial Stability Report, the ECB said: "Higher political uncertainty may lead to more domestically focused, growth-hindering policy agendas.
"This, in turn, could delay much-needed fiscal and structural reforms."
And it pointed out that the euro area banking sector was still suffering from a high level of bad loans, high operating costs and excess capacity.
However, it added that the euro area's financial system had shown resilience in the face of repeated bouts of market turbulence during the past six months.
ECB vice president Vitor Constancio said the bank was maintaining its economic projections, with the baseline forecast indicating slow but steady growth in the coming years. | Larry the cat will get to keep his job - and home - when David Cameron quits as prime minister today.

What is a brief summary of the information below? | Education has been run by Hampshire County Council since 2013 following concerns over standards on the island.
Speaking on a BBC Radio Solent election debate, Conservative candidate Andrew Turner insisted secondary schools were "getting better".
Other candidates criticised the government policy of free schools set up by parents and independent groups.
In 2008, Isle of Wight Council scrapped the island's three-tier education system for two tiers, which led to the closure of some schools.
Four of the island's six secondary schools were rated "inadequate" in their Ofsted reports from 2012 - the lowest grade.
The government subsequently directed the council to form a strategic partnership with Hampshire County Council to run its education and children's services.
Isle of Wight Council is once again consulting on secondary school provision on the island as it seeks to tackle issues related to over-capacity.
One option put forward is to merge two Newport schools; Medina College and Carisbrooke College.
Meanwhile two new schools, the Island Free School and Isle of Wight Studio School, have opened their doors.
Mr Turner said the government's policy of supporting free schools had benefited the island.
"We made a difference by introducing two new secondary schools.
"The others are getting better now, but it took two or three years to move in that direction."
Labour hopeful Stewart Blackmore said the island did not need another "disastrous" reorganisation of schooling.
"We need a local director of education who has the power to do something about falling standards locally," he said.
Liberal Democrat David Goodall criticised the creation of free schools.
"As a party we wouldn't allow any new schools to be set up in an area unless there is actually a need for new school places."
Vix Lowthion, of the Greens, who is a teacher, said: "We need consolidation and no more reorganisation - the free schools created a bit of a mess.
"The council are right to look at it, but in the meantime our children are suffering."
UKIP's Iain McKie said education was a "national disgrace" and pledged to set up a grammar school in the island by 2020 - an idea rejected by other candidates.
Independent Ian Stephens, the former leader of Isle of Wight Council, said the authority had "tackled the job" of education and said the partnership with Hampshire County Council had "given us a breadth of talent and expertise we wouldn't have had otherwise."
The candidates for the constituency are:
Stewart Blackmore (Labour)

Summarize the content of the document below. | Historic England said the funding would create economic growth, "bringing historic places back to life".
The "Heritage Action Zones", which include Hull, Coventry and Ramsgate, were chosen for their "rich heritage and untapped potential".
Each place will benefit from a share of £6m over the next five years.
Historic England said it would work with each local authority.
Neglected listed buildings, it said, will be restored and brought back into use as housing, retail or community spaces.
Conservation areas will also be improved to kick-start regeneration, and historic sites will be developed as visitor attractions, Historic England said.
Heritage Action Zones featured in last year's Culture White Paper with an aim to build tourism, reinvigorate local areas and grow local economies.
Carol Pyrah, of Historic England, said the investment had already "unlocked partnership funding" from elsewhere.
"It's about tourism but also tackling the need for housing and making places more attractive for people to live in and businesses to invest in," Ms Pyrah said.
Local authorities applied for Heritage Action Zone status, and Historic England plans to award it to more places over the next two years.
Tracey Crouch, Heritage Minister, said: "Our heritage and historic buildings are beautiful assets that make our towns and cities unique.
"They tell the story of a town's past and should be protected and cherished."
Sally Balcombe, VisitEngland chief executive, said the investment would "spread economic growth through tourism across England".
Elsecar is already the location of a heritage centre but Historic England said the funding would "unlock the village's industrial past with its ironworks and collieries, but also the story of the village, its community and links to the Fitzwilliam family".
Historic buildings will be brought back into use and suitable sites for new housing will be identified, and local people will be encouraged to get involved in the village's development.
Appleby in Cumbria suffered severe flooding in winter 2015-16.
HAZ status aims to help the economy recover, and important listed buildings, such as the Keep at Appleby Castle, will be repaired. Heritage trails will also be created.
Appleby's Mayor, John Pape, said overall investment over five years was expected to be about £1.65m.
He said: "We are over-the-moon that Appleby has been chosen. The heritage of the town is key to attracting tourism and is a vital factor in supporting the local economy."
Weston-super-Mare town centre has many Victorian, inter-war and post-war buildings.
Historic England's plans include using existing buildings for quality housing, enhancing heritage trails from the town to the beach and station, and opening up new pedestrian access to Weston Museum, the town square and the seafront.
Carol Pyrah, of Historic England, said: "There are loads of locations where heritage is overlooked - Coventry's 20th Century heritage is a really good example".
The funding will help improve issues surrounding education, jobs, health and housing in Coventry, the organisation said, and grants will be given to improve historic buildings and shop fronts in Lady Herbert's Garden and the Burges conservation area, with a view to removing it from the Heritage at Risk Register.
In Sunderland, the Old Town will be brought back in line with the city centre, Historic England said, "extending the prosperity of the city centre to the waterfront and port".
Ms Pyrah said: "Sunderland old town is really left behind, the old high street has lots of listed buildings in a terrible state and there's a real opportunity to reconnect that area."
Historic England said Hull's Old Town will be "brought back to life", finding new uses for historic buildings, including as housing.
It said it would also improve access to the waterfront, city centre and museum quarter, which have already benefited from investment from Hull City of Culture 2017, and the fruit market and marina area, which has also been renovated.
Funding in King's Lynn will "help kick-start economic growth by delivering new homes and jobs" and investment will be encouraged into the town centre and historic riverfront.
Historic England said the money would also be used to address an "acute housing shortage" by building new homes on former industrial land while ensuring the character is protected of King's Lynn's existing historic architecture.
In Nottingham, "new life will be breathed into the town's vulnerable historic buildings and sites", Historic England said.
There are also plans to open up Nottingham's hidden caves.
The once-thriving seaside town of Ramsgate will be given funding to improve the harbour, and also to attract skilled workers and create apprenticeships for local people, Historic England said.
Georgian and Victorian buildings around the Royal Harbour and Newington area, which was built for miners, will also be used again.
Sutton is already the fourth-largest hub in south London, with 25,000 people visiting each day.

Provide a summary of the section below. | The Hen Harrier Action Plan, supported by a number of groups, was set up in January to help the "persecuted" birds.
However, the RSPB said "illegal killing" and "depressing" incidents, including one involving an armed man in the Peak District, have continued.
The government said the plan was still at an early stage and remains the best way to safeguard the birds in England.
The plan followed the disappearance of five male hen harriers in 2015, leading to the collapse of nests.
The birds' predation of grouse is a source of conflict on moors used for shooting, but there was hope the decline could be halted through a joint approach.
However, in April, a video emerged apparently showing an armed man using a decoy bird to attract a hen harrier in the Derbyshire Peak District.
This later led to the National Trust terminating a grouse shooting lease for the first time on its land.
In May, a man was caught on camera setting illegal pole traps on the Mossdale estate, in North Yorkshire, and later lost his job.
Martin Harper, the RSPB's conservation director, said these incidents were "depressingly predictable" and the charity has withdrawn its support as a result.
He said there have only been three nest attempts this year, none on moorland, and reform could only come from the "licensing" of driven grouse shooting.
Amanda Anderson, director of the Moorland Association, said she was "disappointed" by the decision and stressed there were elements of the plan yet to be investigated before the project could be judged a success or not.
She said: "We wish to reiterate our total abhorrence of any act of wildlife crime and support of prosecutions.
"The onus is on every estate to ensure every employee is working within the existing law. Nothing less will do."
A Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) spokesman said it was committed to protecting hen harriers and would continue to work with its remaining partners.

PC Christian D'Andrea, 30, called police to report he had been assaulted by his partner in Wootton, Bedfordshire, on 27 May which led to her arrest.
He later admitted that his pet dog had caused his injuries.
D'Andrea admitted making false allegations and was jailed for four months at Aylesbury Crown Court.

D'Andrea, of Holloway Head, Birmingham, also pleaded guilty to criminal damage after punching a hole in the wall of a property during an argument.
Two further counts of common assault on D'Andrea's partner were ordered to lie on his file.
He was also ordered to pay £300 in compensation.
Deputy Chief Constable Mike Colbourne from Bedfordshire Police said: "We expect our officers to act with integrity at all times but clearly PC D'Andrea's actions fell well below the standards we demand as a police force.
"His actions led to an innocent woman being arrested and interviewed about the fabricated claims.
"This case shows how we will not tolerate such behaviour."
Ian Johnston said the government had not accepted PCCs and often dealt with the chief constable on matters which should have been referred to him.
But PCC Alun Michael said the Welsh government had been "very supportive".
A spokesman for the public services minister said the government had worked well with PCCs but believed there were "better models of police governance".
It is three years this weekend since PCCs were first elected, with a turnout of almost 15% across Wales.
Independents Ian Johnston and Winston Roddick were elected in the Gwent and North Wales police areas respectively, Labour's Alun Michael in South Wales, and Conservative Christopher Salmon in Dyfed-Powys.
Mr Johnston said Labour's attitude to PCCs was "not helpful".
"It's a really difficult job if the ministers aren't engaging with you and are still engaging with chief constables," he added.
Mr Michael said: "Some organisations are muddled over the responsibilities of chief constables and PCCs but the Welsh government has been very supportive.
"I'm very satisfied with the co-operation we've had from the Welsh government.
The Welsh government said it worked closely with police and had developed a productive working relationships with commissioners.
The role of PCCs is to set police budgets and appoint chief constables. It was created to make policing more accountable to the public.
The second round of elections for the posts will happen on the same day as the assembly election next May.
Labour opposed their creation but in September the shadow home secretary Andy Burnham said the party now accepts they are "part of the policing landscape".

Ms Slater's parents have arrived in Scotland from Canada where she and her family moved to from the UK about 10 years ago.
In a joint statement, the families of Ms Slater and Mr Newton said: "We are extremely grateful to members of the emergency services and search and rescue personnel who are searching for Rachel and Tim.
"The overwhelming response from members of the public and the climbing community has greatly assisted the search effort and we appreciate all the support and words of encouragement.
"As a family we urge anyone who was in the Ben Nevis area last weekend and may have seen or spoken to Rachel and Tim at any time to get in touch."
The statement added: "We think Rachel was climbing in a turquoise jacket and purple helmet. Tim may have been wearing a red jacket, similar to the photo in circulation.
"As the search continues we remain hopeful Rachel and Tim will be found and reunited with their families and friends."

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | For as long as she can remember she has had a tourist visa for the US, a document Mexicans require if they want to visit their northern neighbours.
Ms Siller used her visa regularly to go on shopping trips and on weekend visits to see family living in Arizona, Las Vegas and New York.
However, last Monday, she went to the US consulate in her hometown to hand the document back.
"I've come to do something rather unusual. I want to return my visa," she announced to stunned consular staff.
Her decision dates back to last year, when she heard the then-US presidential candidate Donald Trump refer to Mexicans as rapists and criminals.
Watch:What Trump thinks of Mexicans
"I told my husband: 'That's not right, imagine if he becomes president'," she recalls. "If that happens I'll return my visa," she pledged at the time.
On Monday, Ms Siller walked into the consulate and handed in her visa along with a handwritten letter in which she explained her decision.
"I'm returning my visa voluntarily because I'm offended by your new President Donald Trump's attitude towards my country, Mexico, and its people," she wrote.
"This is my way of protesting and expressing my support for my beloved country and its inhabitants," she added.
Ms Siller also announced that she would be requesting a new visa once Mr Trump was no longer in office.
"If I get it, great. If not it's fine too, my decision is made," she concluded.
After a family member posted a copy of Ms Siller's handwritten letter on Facebook she became somewhat of a celebrity in Mexico.
Many of her acquaintances told her they admired her for what she did.
Ms Siller says her was not an act of courage, as some of her friends had called it.
She also does not expect other Mexicans to do the same.
"Every person has to follow his or her own soul. I wouldn't ask anybody to return their visas, not even my children," she said.
But she does have a message for Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.
One of Mr Trump's main promises during his electoral campaign was to build a wall on the border with Mexico.
Three days into his presidency, Mr Trump signed an executive order to start its construction and said that Mexico would pay for the wall.
In response, President Pena Nieto cancelled a state visit to Washington.
Ms Siller said she would like to see Mr Pena Nieto stand up to his US counterpart a bit more.

Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | Several neighbourhoods have been captured since the US-backed operation began on 19 February, but bad weather has slowed the advance in recent days.
But more than 45,000 people have been forced to flee the city in the last two weeks, the International Organisation for Migration says.
Eastern Mosul was recaptured in January after several months of fighting.
IS overran the city, Iraq's second largest, as they spread across large parts of the north and west of the country in a major offensive in 2014.
Joint operations command (JOC) spokesman Brig-Gen Yahya Rasool told state TV on Sunday that Iraqi forces were advancing towards the old centre of the city from the south and south-west.
JOC statements quoted by AFP news agency said security forces were attacking the neighbourhoods of al-Dindan, al-Sumood, Tal al-Raman and al-Dawasa, where the provincial governor's offices are located.
The IOM, the UN migration agency, says more than 200,000 people have been displaced by the fighting since October last year, with a new exodus beginning on 25 February.
Up to 700,000 people are believed to remain in the city.
Centres for the displaced have been filling up quickly, with 7,619 families (45,714 individuals) arriving in the last nine days, it said.
One injured man, named Ibrahim, who fled the western al-Jadida district, told reporters that people had been driven out by hunger.

Vincent Wagstaff, 39, stepped off a ledge rather than leaping into the sea and struck rocks 10m (30ft) below off the Plymouth coast.
Mr Wagstaff asked a friend to record his jump to put it on social media.
Coroner Ian Arrow recorded an accidental death verdict which had been contributed to by alcohol consumption.
More on this story, and other Devon news
An inquest at Plymouth Coroner's Court was shown mobile phone footage of Mr Wagstaff jumping off the wall.
Mr Wagstaff could be heard saying "oh no" as he plunged towards the rocks on Thursday 15 October.
The inquest heard his companions cried out and called for an ambulance, but Mr Wagstaff died from multiple injuries.
Mr Arrow said: "I am satisfied that at the time he was significantly intoxicated. He simply stepped off - it was a serious miscalculation."
The coroner said he hoped the publicity surrounding the death would act as a warning to others that alcohol and jumping off high places do not mix and in Mr Wagstaff's case led to "an extremely sad end".
The inquest heard his blood alcohol reading was 403mg - the legal drink-drive limit is 80mg. Mr Arrow added that some people would have died from the high alcohol level alone.
Speaking after the inquest, Mr Wagstaff's former partner Nikki Rickard, said: "Vince was a loving and caring family man. He was hard working and adored his children.
"He leaves behind three devastated children, a partner, a brother, and family and friends. We are left with a huge gap in our lives that can never be filled.

What is the summary of the document provided? | The tactic has emerged after Scotland Yard's cybercrime unit smashed a fake credit card fraud racket.
Officers realised crucial evidence in the investigation was concealed on a suspect's iPhone - but it would be unobtainable if the device was locked.
So a covert team seized it in the street while the suspect was on a call - beating the security settings.
The street seizure of the phone was dreamt up by detectives from Operation Falcon, the specialist Metropolitan Police team running investigations into major fraud and related crimes organised online.
Gabriel Yew had been under investigation for the suspected manufacture of fake cards that gangs were using across Europe to buy luxury goods. Detectives suspected that he was using an iPhone exclusively to communicate to other members of the network but knew if they arrested him, he could refuse to unlock it and they would never see incriminating evidence.
They considered whether they could legally force a suspect's finger or thumb on to the device's fingerprint reader to unlock it, but found they had no such power.
However, they concluded they could stage their own lawful "street robbery" - using a similar snatch technique to a thief - and in June a team set out to do precisely that.
Undercover surveillance officers trailed Yew and waited for him to unlock his phone to make a call - thereby disabling the encryption.
One officer then rushed in to seize the phone from Yew's hand - just as would happen in a criminal mugging. As his colleagues restrained the suspect, the officer continually "swiped" through the phone's screens to prevent it from locking before they had downloaded its data.
"The challenges of pin code access and encryption on some phones make it harder to access evidence in a timely fashion than ever before," said Det Ch Insp Andrew Gould who led the operation.
"Officers had to seize Yew's phone from him in the street. This evidence was crucial to the prosecution."
The phone revealed a motherlode of information on Yew's efficient business-like practices. He had orders for fake cards and there was evidence linking him to four men who were subsequently convicted and a further 100 potential suspects.
Detectives also uncovered Yew's "factory" with thousands of blank credit cards ready to be programmed.
Yew pleaded guilty to fraud and weapons offences and at a sentencing hearing this week at Blackfriars Crown Court was jailed for five and a half years.
Andrew Brooks, 35, of New Mill, Penzance admitted wounding and was jailed for three years at Exeter Crown Court.
The toddler was left with a fractured skull and brain damage after Brooks had been looking after her.
He was caught 10 years after the incident when an ex-girlfriend contacted police.
Sentencing Brooks, Judge Erik Salomonsen said: "You have never given an explanation of your actions that led to this injury".
At the time of the incident a police inquiry concluded the little girl's fractured skull and brain damage were non-accidental.
However, the evidence it happened when she was in Brooks' care was circumstantial.
Over the next seven years Brooks made partial admissions to a series of girlfriends while trying to explain why social services were monitoring his contact with children.
One of those girlfriends called the police after Brooks told her he had injured the little girl by pushing her against a table.
He also told the women stories about his Army and SAS background, but the court heard he had in fact been kicked out of the Army after six weeks basic training.
Prosecuting, Martin Meeke QC said the toddler's mother left Brooks in charge of her daughter in September 2006 and returned to find the child unresponsive.
She was taken to a children's hospital in Bristol for emergency surgery for a bleeding on the brain.
In his defence Mr Lee Bembridge said Brooks admitted he needed treatment and was seeing a psychotherapist.

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | The UN says it has reports that more than 100 people were burned to death while sheltering in basements in Cizre.
UN Human Rights Commissioner Zeid Raad al-Hussein urged Turkey to grant the UN unimpeded access to the affected areas.
As the report came out, Kurdish rebels were blamed for a bombing that left three people dead and 45 injured.
The car bomb attack targeted a police bus in the Baglar district of Diyarbakir, Turkish media reported, quoting local officials.
No-one admitted carrying out the bombing but the authorities say it was the rebel Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) - outlawed in Turkey as a "terrorist" group.
Earlier this year Turkey imposed curfews on Cizre and other parts of the troubled south-east, as its security forces battled PKK fighters there.
The UN commissioner said there were accounts of unarmed civilians, including women and children, being shot by snipers in south-eastern Turkey during the crackdown. Government forces also caused huge damage to the local infrastructure, he said.
"It is essential that the authorities respect human rights at all times while undertaking security or counter-terrorism operations," Mr Hussein said.
"In 2016, to have such a lack of information about what is happening in such a large and geographically accessible area is both extraordinary and deeply worrying."
Since a ceasefire broke down 10 months ago, military operations in the south-east and PKK retaliatory attacks have left hundreds dead.
The Turkish government has not yet allowed a UN team into the area and rejects accusations that it targeted civilians, the BBC's Mark Lowen reports from Istanbul.
Separately, US-based watchdog Human Rights Watch said that in the past two months there had been cases of Turkish border guards shooting and beating Syrian asylum seekers and smugglers.
The guards killed five people in those incidents, according to an HRW investigation.
Turkey is already housing 2.7 million Syrians and says it is official policy to allow Syrian refugees to enter the country.

But there is every sign that this is becoming a long, drawn-out and devastating armed conflict, our correspondent says. | A top UN official has voiced alarm about violence against civilians by Turkish government forces in Kurdish-majority south-eastern Turkey. |
Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The crew of Monday's Sydney to Auckland flight wore All Blacks jerseys, honouring a bet born on Twitter.
The wager was inspired by some social media sparring - an earlier suggestion was for the losing airline to repaint its fleet in opposition colours.
The Kiwis became the first team to defend the Rugby World Cup on Saturday, defeating the Wallabies 34-17.
Air New Zealand started the Twitter exchange on Friday by tweeting a digitally altered photo of a Qantas plane painted completely black, with slogans including "Team All Blacks", "bound in black" and "simply the best".
"We've been thinking about this wager. How about you paint your planes like this?" the airline said.
Qantas responded with their own image of an Air New Zealand plane in bright Australian gold, saying they "think it needs a golden touch".
Air New Zealand responded: "We wouldn't want to slow our planes down … with all that extra paint", to which Qantas quipped: "We wouldn't think you'd be in a hurry to get here when you lose."
Qantas planes usually fly in a white-and-red colour scheme, while Air New Zealand usually fly white aircraft with a black tail.
The exchange was well-received by rugby fans and Twitter followers, prompting a more realistic proposition.
"How about this? On Monday in the air, your crew wear our jerseys," Air New Zealand suggested on Friday.
"It's on! But let's not leave the pilots out!" Qantas agreed.
Both companies then agreed to "take this offline" to formalise the bet.
Air New Zealand thanked Qantas on Monday for being "good sports".
The government has agreed a deal with Hitachi - which operates bullet trains in Japan - to provide the new trains by 2017.
First Great Western says journey times will be cut and more seats created.
However Bob Crow, general secretary of transport union RMT, said the trains should be made from scratch in the UK.
The trains will replace a fleet of InterCity trains from the 1970s on the Great Western Main line through Oxfordshire and Berkshire, and also on the East Coast Main Line.
First Great Western managing director Mark Hopwood said: "This latest government announcement is an essential piece of the jigsaw in improving passenger journeys across our network.
"Alongside the further electrification announced last week, these trains will give passengers a faster and more comfortable journey when travelling on the Great Western Main Line between London and destinations such as Oxford, Newbury, Bristol, Cardiff and Swansea."
He said journey times will be cut by up to 21 minutes.
Under the deal, Agility Trains, a consortium led by Hitachi, will assemble 596 rail carriages at a new factory in Newton Aycliffe, County Durham.
Agility was announced as preferred bidder for the Intercity Express Programme (IEP) in early 2009, but after a series of delays, it has taken more than three years for the deal to be finalised.
The first trains will enter service on the Great Western Main Line in 2017 and on the East Coast Main Line by 2018.
The government has said the investment will create 900 jobs.
Bob Crow, general secretary of the RMT union, said: "While any new jobs are welcome, this whole botched and delayed intercity replacement programme could have generated thousands of skilled manufacturing jobs if the trains had been built from scratch in the UK rather than just assembled in kit form shipped from Japan."
Staff from three local baking firms used 5,000 of the biscuits to help create the structure as part of the city's summer pageant celebrations.

Write a summary for the following excerpt. | Several commentators in France have noted the gulf that separates reaction today from reaction to the Charlie Hebdo and HyperCacher killings in January.
Then the country took comfort in its familiar instinct for left-inspired solidarity. A million people turned out in the Place de la Republique, and the language was of healing and cross-community fellowship.
Quite rightly, Mr Hollande has judged that today these mantras will not do.
That is why Monday's speech before the joint houses of parliament took his political enemies by surprise. By the end even the far-right National Front (FN) conceded that the president's ideas might have some merit.
For the right-wing daily Le Figaro, the president's reaction to the attacks "marks a turning-point towards a clearer vision for eradicating the Islamists. It was about time."
The victory of realpolitik over what the French call "l'angelisme", or naivety, is visible in two domains.
On the international front, Mr Hollande has said, in so many words, that getting rid of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria is no longer what counts.
A coalition between France, Russia and the US will start to take shape, whose aim will be simple: to grind Islamic State (IS) into the dust.
This is a huge step when you consider that, just a few days ago, the French government was arguing that Mr Assad was as much of a problem as the jihadists. Now there is a clear hierarchy of evil.
On the domestic front, Mr Hollande occupied space previously staked out by Nicolas Sarkozy's party, The Republicans, and left them struggling for a convincing response.
He announced the creation of 5,000 new police posts; 1,000 new customs and border guards; 2,500 new justice officials. In addition, 9,200 army jobs that were to have been scrapped will be saved.
Some of the president's ideas had the opposition gagging with disbelief.
A proposal to strip French citizenship from convicted jihadists who have a second nationality - for example Algerian - was consistently rejected in the past by the Socialists.
Likewise, the call for tougher sentencing for crimes that have a terrorist motivation; or the proposed change in the rules of engagement for police officers, so they can shoot more quickly.
The right would still have liked Mr Hollande to go further.
One idea pushed by Mr Sarkozy's party is for all 11,000 people subject to a so-called "S" notice to be issued with an electronic tag.
The S notice is a form of intelligence-gathering. It means that when a person on the list is identified by a police officer, for example at a routine check, his whereabouts and associates are passed on to a central database.
Consistently it is turning out that Islamist attackers have already been identified by the intelligence services, and are thus on the S list. This is leading to calls for all S list suspects to be tagged.
Mr Hollande said that the idea will be studied, but it is unlikely to be regarded as practical.
There is a political dimension to the president's reaction. Elections are coming, and he has trimmed his sails to the prevailing wind.
Many will say he is still unconvincing, or that the measures unveiled can only be of marginal effect against such determined adversaries as IS.
But he has certainly judged the national mood. | The Paris attacks have triggered a major shift rightwards for President Francois Hollande - he is stealing thunder from the opposition by adopting many of their own anti-terror proposals. |
Give a brief overview of this passage. | Andrew Check, 30, was jailed for 10 years on Monday after admitting two counts of assault by penetration.
Swansea Crown Court heard the imprint from his Fred Perry shoes at the house in the Tenby, Pembrokeshire, helped police trace him.
Check, of Tenby, must serve a further seven years on licence upon release.
Prosecutor Nicola Powel said the victim woke in the middle of the night to see Check stood over her.
He then held a knife to her throat as he assaulted her.
Det Adele Benjafield identified the tennis shoe pattern from a database of 38,000 images.
Police carrying out house-to-house inquiries visited Check's home and noticed he matched the physical description given to officers.
A pair of Fred Perry trainers were found at his home - they were not the ones worn in the attack, but were enough to make officers suspicious.
A search revealed the victim's DNA on a glove in Check's house.
In a video shown to court, the victim said: "I suffer with nightmares, anxiety, and panic attacks and I am unable to sleep. I don't know how and when I will recover my life again."
Judge Keith Thomas said: "Such an offence rightly frightens and horrifies people in equal measure.
"He carried out the attack in a callous and determined way. The rape sent shockwaves throughout the community. "
After the case, Dyfed-Powys Police Det Benjafield said: "The evidential value of footwear is becoming more recognised.

Summarize this article briefly. | Sark in the Channel Islands was named a Dark Sky Community by the International Dark Sky Association in 2011.
The Sark Astronomy Society (Sastros) has raised the money for the observatory, which is costing about £10,000.
Chairwoman Annie Dachinger said it would house the group's £1,500 telescope.
She said: "None of this could have happened without the support of Sark residents and the generosity of members of Sastros."
The group, which was set up when the island was awarded its Dark Sky status, now has more than 30 members.
The one-storey wooden structure will have a sliding pitched roof, broadband, two rooms - one for the telescope and a "warm room" - with the telescope mounted on the only concrete used in the building.
Ms Dachinger said the warm room would have a screen linked to the telescope allowing comfortable viewing on cold nights.
The site, a field in the middle of the island, has been cleared and foundations prepared for work to begin in July or August and due to be completed by the end of the summer.

The previous deal was rejected by the Colombian people in a popular vote on 2 October.
The revised agreement has been submitted to Congress for approval, rather than put to a popular vote.
The deal is aimed at ending five decades of armed conflict, which has killed more than 260,000 people and left millions internally displaced.
The revised deal was signed in a low-key ceremony in the capital, Bogota, and then handed to the president of the Congress.
The ceremony was deliberately kept much smaller than the signing of the previous agreement on 26 September, which was attended by regional heads of state and the United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon.
About 800 people were invited to Thursday's ceremony in Colon Theatre rather than the 2,500 who attended the previous ceremony in the port city of Cartagena.
As Farc leader Rodrigo Londono, better known as Timochenko, and President Juan Manuel Santos shook hands after taking turns to sign the document, with a pen made from a bullet, the guests rose to their feet and chanted "Si se pudo" ("Yes, we could").
Timochenko said the agreement "put a definite end to the war so we can confront our difference in a civilised manner".
President Santos said the revised agreement was "better" than the previous one because it addressed many of the concerns of those who had voted "No" in the October referendum.
He warned that its implementation could not be delayed by a single minute and asked the guests to imagine for a moment what it would be like to return to war with the Farc.
He said he expected Congress to vote on the deal as early as next week.
After four years of formal talks between rebel and government negotiators, the two sides reached an agreement earlier this year.
The deal was signed in an emotional ceremony on 26 September.
But Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos had said from the start of the negotiations that he wanted the Colombian people to have a say in the peace process.
He asked them to endorse or reject the peace agreement in a popular vote held on 2 October.
Polls had suggested the deal would pass by a comfortable margin but in a shock result it was narrowly rejected.
A bilateral ceasefire was extended until the end of the year to give the two sides time to plan their next steps.
President Santos met former President Alvaro Uribe, a vociferous opponent of the peace deal, to listen to his objections.
The government and the Farc then went back to the negotiating table to try to strike a new deal acceptable to those who had voted "no".
Changes were made to almost all of the 57 points in the original agreement.
The five main points which have been changed are:
The deal will be voted on in Congress, where the government has a solid majority, probably early next week, ministers say.
The Democratic Centre party, founded by ex-President Uribe, has already said it will vote "No".
Its leaders say that the changes are only "cosmetic" and object to the fact that the government has said the new deal is "final".
It wants more of its demands met, including harsher sentences for Farc rebels who have committed crimes.
It also demanded that the revised deal be put to another popular vote, which President Santos and the Farc have both ruled out.
Other parties in Congress have given the deal their backing, so it is expected to pass.

Elisabeth Scharfenberg, an MP, told the Welt am Sonntag newspaper that she "could imagine" local authorities paying for "sexual assistance".
Prostitution has been legal in Germany since 2002.
The newspaper wrote (in German) that increasing numbers of sex workers offered services in care homes. A sexual adviser for nursing homes told the paper that prostitutes were a "blessing" for some patients.
In the Netherlands it is already possible to claim the cost of sexual services as a medical expense.

Please give a summary of the document below. | The funding will support skills, talent development and projects which connect with Scotland's diverse communities.
The Scottish government has allocated the cash through the Edinburgh Festivals Expo Fund in 2017/18.
The first of the projects will be Talent Lab, part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival's programme for new and emerging film-makers.
Culture Secretary Fiona Hyslop said the money was an investment in the skills and talent of both emerging and established artists.
She said: "As Edinburgh festivals celebrate their 70th anniversary, it is a time for our artists to dream, reflect, invent and celebrate by bringing Scotland to the world and the world to Scotland through arts and culture.
"I look forward to seeing the cultural excellence of our world renowned festivals over the coming months.
"The Scottish government Expo funding cycle kicks off with the Edinburgh International Film Festival, which will receive £110,000.
"I'm proud that this funding has helped our young people access the film industry by offering a range of activities to inspire and support their careers."
Other events to receive funding are the Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival (£140,000), Edinburgh Art Festival (£140,000), Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society (£560,000), Edinburgh International Festival (£200,000), and Edinburgh International Science Festival 2018 (£130,000).
Ken Hay, chairman of Festivals Edinburgh, said the funding would help ensure Scottish artists "have a pre-eminent place on the most global of Scotland's cultural platforms to showcase our creative, outward looking nation".
Lorna Duguid of Creative Scotland said: "This funding will enable the creation and exhibition of new work and create important connections that will showcase Scotland's rich creative talent internationally."
It is the latest in a series of steps to improve relations after a tense standoff in August.
The confrontation began when two South Korean soldiers were seriously hurt by landmine explosions along the border.
It escalated to threats of war and a brief exchange of fire across the border.
Tension only eased when the two sides met for lengthy discussions at which they agreed to resume previously suspended talks and restart family reunions.
Those reunions were restarted in October, with talks beginning again in November.
As Friday's meeting will only be attended by vice-ministers, it is unlikely that they will discuss the most serious issues in the two countries' often tense relationship.
The official agenda of the meeting has not been made public however, analysts suggest they may discuss more regular reunions between families separated by the Korean War.
The resumption of South Korean tours to the North's Mount Kumgang resort, suspended in 2008, may also be discussed, reports said.
Because the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty, the two countries remain technically at war. | A £2.3m investment is being made in Scottish talent as part of the 70th anniversary of Edinburgh festivals.

Lenders are meeting on Thursday to discuss releasing as much as 8.5bn euros (£7.4bn) in funds to Greece.
Greek Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos said he was "optimistic".
Greece is facing billions of euros worth of debt repayments in July.
Slovak Finance Minister Peter Kazimir said: "I really hope the Euclid will fly back home with a briefcase stuffed with money."
Christine Lagarde, managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), will attend the meeting in Luxembourg.
Germany, Europe's largest economy, is the biggest contributor to the rescue and its government has stipulated that in order for more money to be released to Greece, the IMF must join the bailout.
However, in turn, the IMF wants clarity on longer term debt relief for Greece once the current funding scheme runs out next year.
Jeroen Dijsselbloem, chairman of the Eurogroup, said: "Today we will give more clarity to Greece and to the IMF (on) how we will move forward, how we will calibrate debt relief needed next year.
"There won't be a figure that rolls out... the figure will only come at the end of the programme," he said.

Ziyed Ben Belgacem, 39, was killed after he put a gun to a soldier's head saying he wanted to "die for Allah".
Paris prosecutors' office said toxicology tests during his autopsy found traces of cocaine and cannabis.
Belgacem also had an alcohol level of 0.93g per litre of blood, nearly twice the legal limit for driving in France.
He is said to have been radicalised in prison, and was on a police watch-list.
He was involved in a shooting and then a carjacking on Saturday before he attacked a military patrol at Orly, Paris's second-biggest airport.
Belgacem's criminal record included convictions for armed robbery and drugs offences, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins told reporters late on Saturday.
In an interview with French radio Europe 1 on Sunday, a man identified as his father said Belgacem wasn't a practising Muslim and drank alcohol.
"My son was not a terrorist. He never prayed, and he drank. But under the effects of alcohol and cannabis, this is where one ends up," the father said.
Europe 1 did not give his name.
The father was released from police custody overnight on Saturday, while Belgacem's brother and a cousin were released later on Sunday.
Early on Saturday morning, Belgacem was stopped at a checkpoint in Garges-les-Gonesse, north of Paris.
He fired at police with a pellet gun before escaping in a car that was later found abandoned.
Police say he then stole a car at gunpoint from a woman at Vitry, south of Paris. That car was later found at Orly airport.
Belgacem arrived at the airport and attacked a military patrol in the south terminal.
He tried to seize a servicewoman's automatic weapon, put his gun to her head and said: "I'm here to die for Allah. In any case people are going to die."
He was then shot dead by two other soldiers.
A copy of the Koran was found on his body, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins added.
The BBC's Hugh Schofield in Paris says the picture is building up of a man on the criminal fringes of society, who also consorted with Islamist radicals.
The attack came at a sensitive time. France has presidential elections starting next month and remains under a state of emergency.
The soldiers at Orly were part of Operation Sentinel - involving thousands of soldiers deployed to provide back-up to the police after the Charlie Hebdo attack in January 2015 and the Paris attacks of November 2015. | Germany is confident that its struggling eurozone neighbour Greece will secure the funding it needs to pay its bills.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | Natural Resources Wales (NRW) said about 1,000 tonnes of shingle on Fairbourne beach would be moved to fill in the eroded area next to the concrete defence at Friog corner.
The work is expected to take between five and 10 days, depending on the weather.
Sea defences in the village will only be maintained for 40 more years.
Fairbourne was expected to enter into "managed retreat" in 2025 due to the cost of maintaining defences, but this was extended in January.
NRW said some of the World War Two tank traps on the beach would be moved during the work, following conservation charity CADW's approval, and would be put back afterwards.
Sian Williams, NRW's head of operations in north Wales, said: "We are committed to maintaining and monitoring the flood defence in the short and medium term to help reduce the risk of flooding for the people of Fairbourne.
"Replenishing the shingle at Friog corner is part of this ongoing commitment."
