A disciplinary hearing will take place on Wednesday and Ashton, 28, faces a minimum 12-week ban if found guilty.
The incident happened in the first half of Saracens' European Champions Cup victory at Allianz Park on Saturday.
Ashton was recalled to the England squad by new head coach Eddie Jones last week.
The most recent of Ashton's 39 international caps came against New Zealand in June 2014.

The body of Josh Clayton, 23, from Taunton, was found near Tresco on 23 September 2015, 10 days after he went missing from a party on the privately-owned island.
An inquest into his death was halted after new evidence came to light last week.
His mother Tracey wants police to open a fresh investigation into his death.
She says she has had a private meeting with a senior police officer from Devon and Cornwall Police.
"He assured me he will be reviewing and hopefully will look for any gaps that happen throughout the investigation," she said.
"It definitely wasn't an accident.
"I've thought that from day one and I still believe it now."
Devon and Cornwall Police said they were only made aware of the new evidence at the inquest and were carrying out further inquiries.
The coroner told the force to investigate after new claims emerged of a row at the party Mr Clayton was at before he went missing.
He had been at a staff event at The Shed venue organised by Tristan Dorrien-Smith, son of island landlord Robert.
Partygoer Leroy Thomas said Mr Clayton had been arguing with a group of foreign workers at the party.
Following the inquest Devon and Cornwall Police said in a statement it was the "first time" the force had been made aware of the claims and "further investigations will be carried out as a result". | Barcelona celebrated boss Luis Enrique's 100th match in charge with a laboured win over Levante to go three points clear at the top of La Liga.

Please provide a summary for the content below. | Two fossils found in China show what the animal looked like.
Scientists say its hammer-shaped skull helped it to feed on underwater plants.
Only a handful of marine reptiles, living or extinct, are known to be vegetarian.
Scientists used modelling clay, like Play-Doh, to re-make the jaw to work out how the animal fed. They used toothpicks to represent the teeth.
Olivier Rieppel of the Field Museum in Chicago said:
"We looked at how the upper and lower jaw locked together, and that's how we proceeded and described it."
"It's definitely a reptile that no one would have thought to exist - look at it, it's crazy!"
The first fossils of the creature were discovered a few years ago.
It was named Atopodentatus unicus, which is Latin for "unique strangely toothed".
Father-of-two Aly Donzo, 23, was convicted of raping a 20-year-old at a party in Glasgow on 30 May last year.
The High Court in Glasgow heard that the rape was committed in a flat in Plantation Park Gardens provided to Donzo by the Home Office.
During his trial Donzo denied rape and claimed the sex was consensual.
The victim told advocate depute Sheena Fraser, prosecuting, that she was at a party where Donzo, who comes from Guinea, was also present.
During the evening, as she came out the toilet, he grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her towards a bedroom.
She said he had pushed her onto a bed and pulled down her trousers and underwear.
"I tried to push at his chest to get him off. But he was much bigger and stronger than me. I didn't want it to happen. I didn't want him to touch me. I said no," she said.
The woman told the court she just kept saying she wanted to go.
She told the court she pleaded with Donzo, telling him she had a boyfriend. After raping her Donzo got up and walked out the room.
Other partygoers said the woman was distressed when she came out of the bedroom.
Minutes later, as she left the house to get a taxi, Donzo called after her: "See you later gorgeous."
A taxi driver who picked her and a friend up from the flat where the rape took place described her as "staring ahead expressionless" and then "crying like a wounded animal."
The cabbie said the woman then started moaning and whimpering and added that her friend said she had just been raped.
The court heard that Donzo had entered the UK on 3 March 2010 and applied for asylum. He was served with papers on 20 March that year, stating he was in the country illegally.
On 15 April 2010 his application for asylum was refused and on 29 September that year further submissions to the Home Office were rejected.
On 7 October 2010 Donzo was told he had no further right of appeal and was told to leave the UK.
His defence team claimed he was "hiding in plain sight" all the time and the authorities could have easily found and deported him.
Defence advocate John McLaughlin told the court that Donzo still claimed that the sex was consensual and denied raping the woman.
Mr McLaughlin said: "Mr Donzo operated in full view of the authorities. There has been nothing secretive or fly about his life."
The advocate added: "The flat which is the locus of the offence appears to have been provided by the Home Office."
Donzo was also accused of raping another woman at another Glasgow flat on 2 January 2012, but this charge was withdrawn from the indictment after the alleged victim failed to turn up to give evidence.
Judge Lord Bonomy told Donzo: "There is increasing public concern in Scotland about sexual offending. This was a serious assault on the personal integrity of your victim."
He ordered Donzo to start his sentence at the end of a 32-month sentence he is currently serving for drugs offences.
Lord Bonomy also placed Donzo on the sex offenders' register. | A crocodile-sized creature that lived 242 million years ago was the first known vegetarian reptile to live in the sea, according to new evidence.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | Edouard Manet's Le Bar aux Folies-Bergere, which depicts a barmaid at the famous Parisian cabaret, recently featured at the National gallery's Inventing Impressionism exhibition.
Sotheby's said the painting could fetch up to £20m at the sale on 24 June.
It last sold at auction for £4.4m in 1994.
"This is one of Manet's most famous subjects, and an absolute classic impressionist image of Parisian nightlife," Sotheby's Philip Hook said.
The painting remained in the artist's personal collection up until his death when it was bought by an art dealer, and has remained in private hands since.
It is one of two versions of the same scene created by Manet. A later, larger version is in London's Courtauld Gallery.
Last November Manet's Spring - a portrait of a Parisian actress - set a new auction record for his work, selling for $65m (£42.6m) in New York.
Manet neither looked nor acted like a revolutionary. But he was. It was this polite middle-class man of Paris who precipitated the epoch-changing art of the Impressionists.
He was their mentor and hero. For it was Manet who stood up to the old-fashioned Paris Academy and refused to paint the pleasing pastiches of classical subjects it demanded.
Instead, he took up the challenge laid down by the writer Charles Baudelaire and became a painter of everyday life. This original portrayal of life at the risque Folies-Bergere is an example of Manet's painterly gifts and radical tendencies.
His subject is a barmaid not a goddess, who is serving in a den of iniquity, not lying about in some mythical pastoral scene. The Academy would not have been impressed, but the city's avant-garde would have cheered him all the way to the bar. | An 1881 oil painting considered one of the defining images of French impressionism is to be sold at auction later this month. |
Can you summarize the given article? | Ben, from Sheffield, was 21 months old when he disappeared on 24 July 1991.
Searches have taken place over the past 21 days after it emerged he may have been accidentally killed by a digger driver.
More than 800 tonnes of soil was dug up, with items of interest sent back to the UK for forensic analysis.
Det Insp John Cousins, who is leading the investigation, said: "I've got the confidence that we have done exactly what we can, given the plans we had before we came out here so that I can give an answer, whatever that might be, to Ben's family."
He said he was proud of his team: "It has been a difficult job, the conditions have been extremely hot and very dusty and they are long hours they have been working."
The Help Find Ben Needham campaign thanked South Yorkshire Police, Hellenic search and rescue workers and the media for their work over the past three weeks.
Police are expected to hold a briefing on Monday for a further update on the progress of the search.
Ben vanished from a farmhouse, which his grandfather was renovating, in the village of Iraklis.
Officers are working on the theory that Konstantinos Barkas, who died of cancer in 2015, might be responsible for Ben's death.
Over the past three weeks, digs took place near the farmhouse where he was last seen and a second site 750m away.
A team of 19 South Yorkshire Police officers, forensic specialists, an archaeologist and search and rescue personnel have been excavating the area as a result of a television appeal in May, which brought the theory about Mr Barkas to the attention of the force.
Sanjay Salhorta, 26, of Clarence Street, Southall, was found guilty of murdering Harinder Ratten near his home on 4 January.
Police said Salhorta killed the 41-year-old after he previously attacked him in his car, only for Mr Ratten to hit him with a crowbar in retaliation.
He was sentenced at the Old Bailey to serve a minimum of 26-and-a-half years.
During the first attack on 20 December 2014, Harinder Ratten had been sitting in his car when a man in a hooded top opened the door, struck him in the face and demanded he get out of the vehicle.
Mr Ratten retaliated by hitting the attacker with a crowbar until the attacker fled.
Tests done on the crowbar after the 41-year-old's death found blood on it belonged to Salhorta.
In January, Mr Ratten was found lying in the road with multiple stab wounds.
After the stabbing, Salhorta hid in a nearby alleyway where he dropped the murder weapon. This was found by the police with Mr Ratten's DNA upon it.
Salhorta then went to the house of a friend, Inderjit Bhachu, who also lived in Clarence Street.
He changed clothes in the house before the pair drove to Staines where they burnt Salhorta's clothing.
Bhachu, 28, also of Clarence Street, was sentenced to four years in prison after previously pleading guilty to perverting the course of justice.
He was cleared of conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm with intent.
Det Ch Insp Simon Aswin of the Metropolitan Police said it was "a brutal attack for nothing other than for Sanjay Salhotra to save face".
"I am pleased that Salhotra and Bachu now face a considerable prison sentences," he said.
The centre-back had 18 months remaining on his old contract and his future had been the subject of much speculation.
Manager Tony Pulis was full of praise for the 25-year-old defender, who recently made his England debut.
"He's been the bedrock of what we've been trying to do over the past five or six years," said Pulis. "We're really pleased that he's finally agreed [to extend his time at Britannia Stadium.]"
Shawcross initially joined Stoke on loan from Manchester United in 2007 and helped the Potters win promotion to the Premier League.
He joined the club on a permanent basis for £1m during their promotion season.
In total, he has made 227 appearances for Pulis's side and scored 18 goals.

Summarize the provided information. | Troy Hunt reported that a flaw with the electric vehicle's companion app also meant data about drivers' recent journeys could be spied on.
Mr Hunt said he gave the firm a month to fix the issue before he decided to make it public.
Nissan said there was no safety threat.
The problem remains unresolved but Mr Hunt said car owners could protect themselves by disabling their Nissan CarWings account. Those who have never signed up are not at risk.
Mr Hunt acknowledged that the issue was not life-threatening, but said hackers could still exploit the app's vulnerability to cause mischief by running down people's batteries.
"The right thing to do at the moment would be for Nissan to turn it off altogether," Mr Hunt told the BBC.
"They are going to have to let customers know. And to be honest, a fix would not be hard to do.
"It's not that they have done authorisation [on the app] badly, they just haven't done it at all, which is bizarre."
A spokeswoman for Nissan said it was tackling the problem.
"Nissan is aware of a data issue relating to the NissanConnect EV app that impacts the climate control and state of charge functions," she said.
"It has no effect whatsoever on the vehicle's operation or safety.
"Our global technology and product teams are currently working on a permanent and robust solution.
"We are committed to resolving the issue as a matter of priority, ensuring that we deliver the best possible experience for our customers through the app now and in the future."
Mr Hunt said the root of the problem was that the firm's NissanConnect app needed only a car's vehicle identification number (Vin) to take control.
The code is usually stencilled into a car's windscreen, making it relatively easy to copy.
The initial characters of a Vin refer to the brand, make of car, and country of manufacture/location of the firm's headquarters.
So, Mr Hunt said, it would only be the final numbers that varied between different Nissan Leafs based in the same region.
"Normally it's only the last five digits that differ," he explained.
"There's nothing to stop someone from scripting a process that goes through every 100,000 possible cars and tries and turn the air conditioning on in every one.
"They would then get a response that would confirm which vehicles exist."
Attackers would not even need to use the app, he added, since the commands could be sent via a web browser.
To confirm the problem, Australia-based Mr Hunt used the Vin number of a Nissan Leaf-owning acquaintance based in the UK.
"I was sat in the vehicle with everything powered off and didn't have my key on me," recalled Scott Helme, who is also a cybersecurity adviser.
"So, the vehicle was as it would be if it was completely unattended.
"As I was talking to Troy on Skype, he pasted the web address into his browser and then maybe 10 seconds later I heard an internal beep in the car.
"The heated seat then turned on, the heated steering wheel turned on. And I could hear the fans spin up and the air-conditioning unit turn on."
Further tests indicated that the hack did not work if the vehicle was in motion.
But it was possible to see the owner's registered username, which might help reveal their identity.
Furthermore, times and distances of recent journeys were disclosed, but not location data.
As soon as Mr Helme unregistered his app, Mr Hunt could no longer contact his car.
"It's not as bad as it could be," Mr Helme told the BBC.
"But if I was to monitor your movements over the course of the week and learn when you go to and from work, shortly after you got to your office I could run the heating for the remainder of the day.
"That would potentially leave you with very little power - certainly not enough to get back home."
Further analysis indicated that the app does not talk directly to the cars, but instead sent its commands via Nissan's computer servers.
As a result, Mr Hunt said, it would be easy for Nissan to suspend the service.
The researcher also discovered that some Canadian owners of the Leaf had discovered and shared knowledge of the flaw on an online forum and had posted a web address that could be used to spoof the app.
"I decided we were past the point of not letting the cat out of the bag," he said, justifying his decision to blog about the discovery before Nissan had issued a fix.
"Unfortunately what we are seeing is just another case of security being important after a problem is discovered," he added. | Some of Nissan's Leaf cars can be easily hacked, allowing their heating and air-conditioning systems to be hijacked, according to a prominent security researcher. |
Summarize the information in the following section. | Wales are down to seventh from fifth place after defeats by England and Scotland and could drop to ninth if they lose to Ireland and France.
That would mean a tough draw for the 2019 World Cup with the seedings based on rankings at the end of this season.
"It's not so much the World Cup. The disappointment would be if we finish ninth," said former captain Davies.
"I think Wales should be far higher up the world rankings than that and I think we've been aiming this year to establish ourselves as fourth in the world.
"So if we end up as seventh, eighth or ninth it falls short of where we wanted to be so that's the biggest disappointment, not so much the World Cup."
Wales were ranked outside the top eight for the 2015 tournament draw, when they ended up in the infamous "group of death" with England, Australia and Fiji.
The draw for the 2019 tournament in Japan is being made in May, with Rob Howley's team again facing the risk of a tough pool.
But Davies - a former British and Irish Lions Test fly-half - believes the team can bounce back to win their remaining Six Nations matches in Cardiff and Paris.
"They've got two games Ireland and France left to bring some redemption I suppose," he said.
Wales captain Alun Wyn Jones also said that players were not concerned about the world rankings as they prepare for the final two rounds of the tournament.
"With regard to world rankings we've got to have an eye on the games week-to-week rather than anything beyond that," he said.
The decision comes little over a month before Germans head to the polls.
The AfD hopes to enter the parliament in Berlin for the first time.
Prosecutors asked the Saxony state parliament to lift Ms Petry's immunity after a campaign financing inquiry.
She is suspected of making false statements under oath before a parliamentary committee in November 2015.
Ms Petry is a co-leader of the the nationalist AfD and its lead candidate in Saxony for the 24 September federal election.
Prosecutors will be able to press ahead with the case if, as expected, no objections are raised by other members of the state parliament. She has said in the past that she is relaxed about the case.
AfD is currently polling at around 8% in German opinion polls and already has delegates in 13 of Germany's 16 state parliaments. Among its policies are a call to declare Islam incompatible with German culture and a plan to strip immigrants convicted of serious crimes of their German passports.
The party's fortunes have declined in the past year, partly because of internal wrangling but also because immigration has become less of an issue in German politics. Parties need to reach a 5% threshold of the vote to enter the Bundestag.
What does the AfD want?
Ms Petry was instrumental in moving the AfD to the right after it was founded as an anti-euro movement. In 2016, amid the influx of migrants and refugees into Germany, she suggested that police should, "if necessary", shoot at migrants seeking to enter the country illegally.
In April she stepped back from the party leadership to have her fifth baby after losing an internal fight to steer the AfD towards a more moderate course. Controversially, she was then pictured with her baby in July in an AfD campaign poster. | Wales' slide in World Rugby's rankings is a disappointment, says Welsh Rugby Union chairman Gareth Davies.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Long before the blue and red rivalry that dominates derby day another team - Liverpool Caledonians FC - were among the city's leading Victorian era clubs.
They took up residence at a 30,000-capacity stadium in Wavertree, known as Woodcroft Park, at a time when Everton had just settled into Goodison Park having previously played at Anfield, later the home of Liverpool FC.
An appeal has now been made for information about Liverpool Caledonians, with local councillor Tim Beaumont admitting "there does not appear to be a great deal known about them or where they played".
It appears the club, which gained admission to the Lancashire League, didn't last for long.
Local historian Mike Chitty, from the Wavertree Society, says: "They were around in 1891 and they sought entry to the Football League a year later, and they went into liquidation by December 1892 so that was the end of the club."
Despite their short existence, Mr Chitty says they reached the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup in 1892 - "one round further than Liverpool FC" - before losing to Northwich Victoria.
In a Liverpool Mercury report from 1892, the Caledonians were described as being "so successful during [their] first season that, besides being in the semi-final in the Liverpool Senior Cup Competition, [they] won the Liverpool Challenge Shield".
Ultimately their bid for a place in the Football League was unsuccessful.
Their Woodcroft Park stadium was described as "suitable for football and cricket" while a "fast cinder track of a quarter of a mile fits them for cycling and athletic purposes".
It also possessed "perfectly level and well-drained" turf - more than can be said for some current grounds - while reporters enjoyed "ample press conveniences".
Yet the Woodcroft Park stadium doesn't appear on the Ordnance Survey maps published in 1893 and 1905, says Mr Chitty.
"It looks like the football ground had come and gone in between... but other clubs are known to have played on the ground until around 1900 or possibly a bit afterwards," he adds.
According to a Mercury story from 1893, the Liverpool Old Boys club took over the ground from the Caledonians, although it's not clear whether the former was a football or rugby team.
"There may be stories in families about an ancestor who played for [the Caledonians]," says Mr Beaumont. "Or there could be medals or other memorabilia which have been gathering dust in a loft but which could provide valuable information."
The Mercury cuttings say Woodcroft Park was "a minute's walk from Wavertree Station, and within easy distance of Sefton Park, Wavertree, and Fairfield".
Attempts to pinpoint the stadium's exact location throw up various possibilities, including a now-demolished country house known as Woodcroft Cottage, and a nearby housing development close to Lawrence Road.
As the team's Roman suffix suggests, they may have had a Scottish link.
"Liverpool was a very cosmopolitan place around 1900," says Mr Chitty.
"It had drawn people from all over the world but mainly from different corners of the British Isles, being a port.
"Therefore there were very strong communities - Irish, Welsh and Scots - and we assume that Liverpool Caledonians FC was set up to appeal to the ex-pat Scots who lived in Liverpool."
Mr Chitty initially thought a cluster of streets in Wavertree - possibly named after Scottish men with connections to the South African Boer War between 1899 and 1902 - could have been a nod to the Liverpool Caledonians.
But he now believes this could be a red herring.
"As the Caledonian FC was only in existence for a few months - whereas Woodcroft Park continued in use for another eight years or so - would anyone really have remembered the Caledonian connection when choosing to name a set of new streets?"
He adds: "This is the thing about local history - you start off on one thing and it leads you off on all sorts of other things."

Can you provide a summary of this content? | Chanting "Tunisia is free! Terrorism out!", they marched to the Bardo Museum, the scene of an attack in which 21 tourists and a Tunisian died.
French President Francois Hollande and other world leaders attended a ceremony at the museum.
Hours earlier, Tunisian authorities said that they had killed one of the prime suspects in the attack.
Speaking at the museum, Tunisian President Beji Caid Essebsi paid tribute to his citizens' defiance.
"The Tunisian people proved today that they do not bow to terrorism, and that as one man and one woman, they defend the nation. When Tunisia is targeted, the whole nation stands as one."
Gunmen stormed the museum in Tunis on 18 March. British, Japanese, French, Italian and Colombian tourists were among the dead.
On Sunday, President Hollande announced that Huguette Dupeu, a Frenchwoman injured in the attack, had died from her wounds.
As well as the French leader, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and other foreign dignitaries attended a ceremony at the museum where a stone tablet was dedicated to the memory of the attack victims.
Speaking at the ceremony President Hollande pledged France's support.
"We had four French citizens killed there, victims of terrorism, so it was necessary to participate in this march," he said, adding: "Today it's about Tunisia, and the values it represents in the Arab world and beyond."
Demonstrators waved Tunisian flags and held up slogans of "Not Afraid" and "We Are Bardo" as they marched, surrounded by a heavy security presence.
"Terrorism is an international phenomenon, not a Tunisian one," activist Ben Hazem told the BBC. "I think there should be solidarity and unity between us to fight terrorism."
Meanwhile, demonstrator Kamel Saad told Reuters that the march was to show that "we are a democratic people, Tunisians are moderate, and there is no room for terrorists here."
Some leftist political groups chose to boycott the rally. They object to the participation of an Islamist party, who they hold accountable for the rise of Islamic extremism in the country.
Tunisians held a landmark election in December that ushered in a new, largely secular government.
Hours before the march, Tunisian authorities claimed to have killed the alleged leader of the attack, Lokman Abu Sakhra.
He was one of nine armed militants killed in a raid on Saturday, the government says.
A spokesman described him as one of Tunisia's "most dangerous terrorists".
Security officials allege that the militants were members of the Okba Ibn Nafaa Brigade, a jihadist group that has previously claimed deadly attacks against security forces in the country.
A spokesman for the Tunisian prime minister told the BBC that Sakhra, an Algerian citizen, was killed by security forces in the western region of Gafsa.
In the past week, authorities claim to have arrested dozens of people they suspected of links to the museum attack. | Thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets of Tunis for an anti-terrorism march. |

In an interview on BBC Radio Scotland's Stark Talk programme, the MSP said she struggled to reconcile her religious beliefs with being a lesbian.
Ms Davidson, who went to school in Fife, had a Church of Scotland upbringing.
She said when she was younger she "didn't want to be gay" and it took her years to accept her sexuality.
The former BBC journalist said the biggest issue about her sexuality was with regard to her faith.
Ms Davidson said: "It's something I struggled with, I didn't want to be gay. I'm not sure how many people do. It's been amazing the difference, even in my lifetime, how things have changed.
"I struggled with it for a number of years actually before I would admit it to myself, never mind to anybody else.
"But there comes a point at which you make a decision and that decision is either that you're going to live a lie for the rest of your life, or you're going to trust yourself, and that's what I had to do."
The politician told presenter Edi Stark that she had found it "very difficult" to see how parts of the Bible referred to homosexuality.
Ms Davidson explained: "To read Paul's letter to various churches around the globe talking about 'homosexual offenders' - the phrase in the international version - and talking about idolaters and adulterers and thieves being ranked together was very, very difficult."
In the wide-ranging interview, the political leader also insisted she would never want Prime Minister David Cameron's job.
She said: "I'm incredibly lucky in that I get to regularly see behind the door of No. 10 and it was like the loneliest job, second only probably to being the president of the United States.

The team declined an option to extend their official Yamaha UK road race deal for a further two years.
"I know it's the right time for us to step down both as a team and a family," said Tim Martin.
Stuart Easton won the British Supersport title for the team in 2013 followed by Alastair Seeley's double at the North-West 200 the following year.
The team also secured podium finishes at the Isle of Man TT and Ulster Grand Prix.

So it was again today when he met Nicola Sturgeon in Bute House. And yet there is caution too on the first minister's side.
Why so? Competing mandates - and sundry thoughts as to how those mandates are most effectively exercised.
Both leaders took pains to describe today's talks as constructive. Yet both leaders retain distinctly different visions as to the final constitutional construct which could emerge.
Mr Cameron has, behind him, an overall Commons majority. He has the votes in the House. He could, if he chooses, wield that majority to legislate on Scotland as he chooses.
But he knows - and Nicola Sturgeon gently but firmly reminds him - that Scotland tends to prefer discussion to diktat. He is reluctant to resort to an early, overt rebuff in the light of the sweeping gains made by the SNP last week in the UK elections.
And so the prime minister offers to listen. He offers to consider ideas advanced by Ms Sturgeon as to further powers - beyond the Smith Commission agreement - which might usefully be devolved to Holyrood.
There is, to be clear, little evident enthusiasm in that offer. Mr Cameron makes clear that his preference, his primary concern, is to implement the Smith package in full, through legislation in the Commons.
Which is where the divisions lie. Ms Sturgeon wants to go considerably beyond Smith.
She wants devolved control of employment, the minimum wage, National Insurance, substantial welfare powers and equality policy - in addition to the control of income tax rates and bands plus a limited share of welfare featured in Smith.
And she wants discussion on these matters to proceed via debate within civic and political Scotland - as well as in the Commons. The two leaders, therefore, differ on substance and process too.
Apart, of course, from the small matter that, ultimately, Ms Sturgeon wants to end the Union which Mr Cameron strives to defend.
But Nicola Sturgeon is cautious too. She has disavowed gesture politics. She says the people of Scotland want and deserve mature representation by their elected tribunes.
Given that, she is unwilling to precipitate a crisis in the talks - at least too speedily. The issue here is exit strategy. She can cajole, she can persuade, she can demand. But, if the PM says no, what then? He has the votes in the Commons.
Again, down the line, Nicola Sturgeon could appeal once more for popular support in Scotland, citing claims that Westminster has neglected Scottish demands.
Equally, if not handled carefully, an early collapse of this renewed process might simply demonstrate that the SNP presence in the Commons - huge and vocal though it is - remains a UK minority, part of the opposition.
So Ms Sturgeon will seek to obtain what she can by consensus, by co-operation, by persuasion. Cautiously. | Lisburn-based Mar-Train Racing are withdrawing from motorcycle racing after eleven years in the sport.

What is a brief summary of the information below? | She "can't bear" to celebrate their son's first Christmas apart, she said.
Billy Irving, from Connel, Argyll, is one of six British men held for more than 760 days on the charges.
Yvonne MacHugh has relaunched a petition to UK Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond.
Ms MacHugh, 27, from Glasgow, said it breaks her heart that Mr Irving and the five other men - all ex-soldiers in the British Army - are still stuck out in India, in what she called a "nightmare" scenario.
Along with Mr Irving, the men arrested on 12 October 2013 are:
"I can't bear to celebrate our baby boy's first Christmas without his dad," Ms MacHugh said.
"I'm left without the man that I love, the man that I want to spend the rest of my life with.
"We're supposed to be planning a wedding and bringing up our wee boy together and all that's been taken off us."
In 2013, Ms MacHugh started a petition - which attracted the support of more than 150,000 people - saying the men had been "wrongly arrested and imprisoned by Indian authorities while working to protect ships from pirate attacks".
She has re-launched it this week with the call for them to be brought home by Christmas.
She wrote on the petition: "The British government is their only hope. These boys are ex-soldiers who have fought in Iraq and Afghanistan. They devoted their lives to their country and now they need our country's help."
She said: "I just felt I had to do something. I just don't see an end to it at all. None of it seems to make sense.
"Despite them being innocent, it just scares me that that might not come through in court and they could be prosecuted for something that they have no control over or they've not done."
The men were working for US maritime company AdvanFort providing anti-piracy protection when their ship - MV Seaman Guard Ohio, which had a crew of 35 - was detained.
After being told the case against them was quashed, Indian prosecutors applied for a retrial, which is now ongoing.
Relatives had hoped the guards would have been allowed home by October this year, because of what they said was the weakness of the case, but the six still remain in India.
Ms MacHugh has daily contact with Mr Irving over Skype, and she and their son visited India earlier this year.
But, she said, her life is on hold as she waits for her partner to return.
"It's horrible, I can't even describe how it feels," she said.
The Manchester United star posted on his official Facebook page he and his Rosso Restaurant hoped to "put a smile on local kids' faces this Christmas".
He announced the donation live on air to Cash for Kids, the official charity of Manchester radio station Key 103.
The charity said it was "totally overwhelmed" with the donation.
Ferdinand told the station: "Christmas is a time when families want to get each other presents and there are obviously people that are less fortunate than we are so we want to try and help them and donate £500,000 worth of toys."
He said: "As a father myself I couldn't see children going without opening a present this Christmas day.
"We're not looking for a thank you, we're just trying to help people out."
The charity's manager Russell Feingold said on the station's website: "We are totally overwhelmed by Rio's amazing contribution.
"This is going to help so many young children."
The charity which supports disabled and disadvantaged children in Greater Manchester said its Mission Christmas campaign aims to help at least 60,000 children in Manchester who are at risk of not getting a present this Christmas.
Ferdinand won 81 England caps, plus six Premier League titles with Manchester United.

Please summarize the document below. | Well, maybe you're feeling a little nostalgic, because it's exactly 10 years since the final episode of the most successful sitcom in history aired in Britain.
After 10 seasons of watching New York's favourite twenty-somethings fall in love, split up, get hired, get fired, get stranded, get pregnant, we waved farewell to Chandler, Joey, Ross, Rachel, Monica and Phoebe.
Because WE WERE ON A BREAK.
And those recent rumours of a reunion episode have been scotched because, as Matt LeBlanc, who played the loveable but clueless Joey Tribbiani, observed: "That show was about a finite period of time in life, after college and before your relationship and family starts and where your friends are your support system.
"That's what the magic of the show was - everyone goes through that and can relate to that."
Things have changed in the decade since. For one, the final episode was actually broadcast in the UK three weeks after it aired in the US - without pirate copies and spoilers flooding the internet.
For aficionados, many aspects of the show have passed into legend - but here are 10 things you might not know:
1) The original theme tune was to be REM's Shiny Happy People.
It was used in the pilot, when the show was called Friends Like Us, but was replaced by I'll Be There For You, which was co-written by the show's creators, Marta Kauffman and David Crane, and performed by The Rembrandts.
It was originally only a minute long, but when a radio DJ made a three-minute loop, the group knew they had to make a full-length rewrite.
"Our record label said we had to finish the song and record it. There was no way to get out of it," said lead singer Phil Solem.
It reached number one in the US and number three in the UK - where it sold more than 600,000 copies - but it would remain the band's only hit.
Their follow-up, This House Is Not A Home, limped into the UK charts at number 58.
2) David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow and Matthew Perry were such unknown quantities in 1994 that US newspapers tried to promote Courteney Cox as the "star" of the cast - based on her recurring role in the sitcom Family Ties and a fleeting appearance in a Bruce Springsteen video.
In fact, Joey and Monica were even supposed to be the main couple.
The show's creator Marta Kauffman explained: "They just seemed the most sexual of the characters."
3) Matt LeBlanc was down to his last $11 when he auditioned. He had a cut on his nose from falling over drunk and hitting his face on a toilet seat the night before. When they received their first pay cheques, Courteney Cox, who played Monica, celebrated by buying a Porsche.
LeBlanc bought a hot meal. "Friends, when it came my way, was my fourth TV series - and the other three had failed," he said. "I had exactly $11 in my pocket the day I was hired. I had to go back and read for the part of Joey a total of six times. It was far from certain I would get the role."
4) The character of Gunther was meant to be a non-speaking part and he didn't even have a name until the second season.
The actor, James Michael Tyler, got the role because he worked in a coffee shop and knew how to operate an espresso machine. He even kept his day job during the first four seasons of Friends.
"I had several different types of jobs, but at the time that Friends started, I was working in a coffee shop in Los Angeles called the Bourgeois Pig," said Tyler.
"I was a barista there but had been doing extra work off and on for someone who had become the second assistant director on Friends.
"He called me up and said: 'Hey, I know you're working at that coffee shop, and we have a coffee shop set in this new show that's gonna go six episodes, at least, called Friends. Would you be interested in coming in one day a week?' and I think at that time extra pay was $45 a day."
5) Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston had the same lunch on set every day for 10 years - a Cobb salad.
"I'm so tired of that salad, but it is easier just to say, 'Oh, I'll take what she's having!'" Cox told Oprah Winfrey as the show drew to a close in 2004.
But she later admitted to the Los Angeles Times it hadn't been a Cobb salad at all...
"It was a salad Jennifer doctored up with turkey bacon and garbanzo beans and I don't know what. She just has a way with food, which really helps. Because if you're going to eat the same salad every day for 10 years, it'd better be a good salad, right?"
6) The famous framed peephole in Monica's front door was originally a mirror but a member of the crew accidentally smashed it. Set designer Greg Grande decided he liked the look and left the frame in place.
Grande was responsible for the show's innovative decor - the first time a TV sitcom was based in an apartment that genuinely felt "lived-in".
"These were young, struggling Generation X-type characters who had to struggle to make a dime," he said. "Their furnishings came from swap meets, thrift stores.
"The ironic thing is that when people watch the show, their first response is: 'How can they afford a space like that?' But if you look at each piece, you truly could've gone and found each one of those pieces at an [affordable] place. That's how Monica's came about."
7) Bruce Willis guest-starred free in two episodes after losing a bet with Matthew Perry on the film set of The Whole Nine Yards. Perry bet him that The Whole Nine Yards would top the US box office, and he won. All future payments for his appearance were donated to charity.
8) TV Network NBC made $70m (£42.5m) from the final night of Friends, thanks to advertisers who paid $2m (£1.2m) for every 30-second slot.
It was a record haul for an entertainment show, with the price tag per advert only slightly below that for the Super Bowl.
The profits had to be offset against the cast's stellar wages, though. Having grouped together to negotiate their salaries, they were earning $1m (£600,000) per episode for the last few seasons.
That inflated the cost of the show to $10m (£6m) per episode, almost 20 times the normal price of a studio sitcom.
At times, the network made a loss on the show, according to the Los Angeles Times - which may have influenced its decision to replace the sitcom with the much cheaper reality series The Apprentice.
9) Marcel the Monkey - actually a female named Katie - got a Hollywood movie deal before any of the cast. She starred in Outbreak.
10) The cast were just as sad about the show ending as the audience were.
"This is gutting us," said Jennifer Aniston during the last week of filming. "We're like very delicate china. We're speeding towards a brick wall. Inevitable pain."
"And we're going to smash into a million pieces," added Lisa Kudrow. "It's a deeper loss than I was expecting."
Matt LeBlanc was less sentimental, noting that Joey Tribbiani had taken up "a third of my life".
The show's heartwarming farewell, filmed in January 2004, allowed the six characters to move out of New York, and on to the next stages of their lives.
"What we hope is that people feel good about saying goodbye to them, and that they're all going to be OK," Kauffman said.
The final scene was shot on Stage 24 at Warner Bros Studios, where Friends had been filmed since its second season. After the show wrapped up, the stage was renamed The Friends Stage. | How you doin'? |

Summarize the passage below. | People in Scotland pay the price of a local phone call when calling the advice service from a landline, with calls from a mobile often costing more.
The demand for a free service, by Tory health speaker Jackson Carlaw, comes as Westminster moves to introduce a free, one-stop number in England and Wales.
The Scottish government said it was also considering adopting the new, free-to-use 111 number.
NHS Direct - the equivalent service to NHS 24 in England - is gradually being replaced by the 111 service.
It is already operating in many areas south of the border, and is due to be rolled out across England and Wales this year.
When a patient calls 111, an operator - who is trained in the same way as a 999 operator - can send out an ambulance, put someone straight through to a nurse, book an out-of-hours GP appointment, or direct the caller to a pharmacist or dentist.
Operators answering calls to the existing NHS Direct service do not have the capacity to request ambulances or book appointments - and patients also receive a separate call back if they need to speak to a nurse or doctor.
Mr Carlaw said: "The SNP has ignored this issue for more than three years now, while the plans for an improved service have gone full steam ahead down south.
"This will be yet another area in health where patients in Scotland will be literally worse off than people elsewhere in the UK seeking vital health advice.
"Not only would this open up access to medical advice to those who may not have used it before, it could bring a number of other benefits.
"In some areas of England they have innovated very successfully, such as some GP practices allowing the 111 service to book emergency appointments with them."
A petition has also been lodged at the Scottish Parliament asking MSPs to urge the government to make calls for NHS 24 free from mobile phones.
A Scottish government spokeswoman said: "Consideration for the adoption of the 111 number, for access to non-emergency healthcare services in Scotland is currently under way, and we expect to make a positive announcement soon.
"Should it be adopted, this number would replace the existing number for NHS 24 - the two key benefits for patients would be that the number is memorable and would be free to call from both a mobile phone and a landline." | Calls to NHS 24 should be free of charge, the Scottish Tories have said. |
Please summarize the following text. | Ministers said the reduction - from 5,516 to 3,730 bottles - was partly because of disruption to government over the general election period.
The wine cellar, established in 1908, is used for government functions and state events.
In 2015-16, the government sold wine worth £40,390 and purchased stock costing £40,177.
Despite the drop in consumption, the annual statement for the Government Hospitality wine cellar, published by Foreign Office Minister Sir Alan Duncan, shows the cellar still contains over 33,000 bottles of wines and spirits, with a total value of £809,990.
English and Welsh wine were the most commonly served, making up 44% of the total consumed.
In a written statement to MPs, Sir Alan said the wine cellar had been self-funding since 2011-12, through the sale of "high-value stock" and payments from other departments for hospitality services.
The wine sold from the cellar, which is is located beneath Lancaster House near Buckingham Palace, included bottles dating back to 1961 and 1970.
Lib Dem MP Greg Mulholland said: "Official ONS figures show the average household spending £4 a week on wine at home.
"Given this, people will be amazed that over £47,000 worth of bottles were drunk at government events in the last year alone." | The amount of wine drunk from the government's hospitality cellar fell by almost a third last year. |
Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | Sussex slumped to 87-4 before Chris Nash and Luke Wright (59) put on 115.
However, the pair's exit with the score on 202, saw Sussex's last five wickets fall for 49 as they posted 251 all out.
The winless visitors lost openers James Adams, run out for 11, and Sean Terry for 30 but Vince finished the day on 52 not out as they made steady progress in their reply to finish on 116-4.
Sussex had looked set to post a bigger first-innings score before Nash fell to Vince's medium pace for 48 and Wright followed him to the pavilion at the start of the next over.
Thereafter the hosts fell apart with Gareth Berg (4-67) and Jackson Bird (3-69) doing the majority of the damage.
In Hampshire's innings Adams was out backing up after a smart piece of fielding from Steve Magoffin before Terry edged to Nash off Ollie Robinson.
Michael Carberry (14) was caught by Ben Brown off the bowling of Magoffin and Will Smith was out lbw to Robinson for seven but Vince and nightwatchman Danny Briggs saw out the day without any further alarms.
Hampshire paceman Jackson Bird:
"I think we're in a pretty good position now after a tough middle session.
"Luke Wright and Chris Nash took it to us there and we fought our way back into the game pretty nicely.
"The pitch is actually playing okay. A couple of balls from the top end, bowling down the hill, are taking off a little bit. But generally it has played quite well.
"I think it might deteriorate as the game goes on, so hopefully we can put a big score in this innings and get ahead of the game.
Sussex head coach Mark Robinson:
"All our top five batsmen managed to get themselves out, having got a start, but both Wright and Nash batted brilliantly to get us into a good position.
"We're disappointed not to have got a bigger first-innings total but there are a few wickets in this surface and so we can chip away at them tomorrow.
"I think it is also a surface on which the batsmen can play their shots, but the danger with that is when the batters get a bit over-excited." | James Vince hit his first Championship fifty of 2015 as Hampshire and Sussex shared an even opening day at Hove. |
Summarize the following piece. | Wightlink Ferries wants to build a three-storey terminal in Gunwharf Road for its Portsmouth to Fishbourne service as part of a £45m project.
The upgrade will see new ramps put in so vehicles can be simultaneously loaded and unloaded on two levels.
Portsmouth City Council's planning committee approved the plans at a meeting on Wednesday.
The firm still has to secure planning permission from Isle of Wight Council next month for a new loading ramp at the Fishbourne terminal.
The new ferry will carry 178 vehicles and more than 1,000 people on each crossing.

Can you provide a brief summary of the following information? | More than 240 people have died and at least 368 were injured, officials said.
Many people are still believed to be buried under rubble and more than 4,300 rescuers are using heavy lifting equipment and bare hands to find them.
Many of the victims were children, the health minister said, and there were warnings the toll could rise further.
Early on Thursday, Italy's civil protection authorities said a total of 247 people were now known to have died, with 190 deaths reported in Rieti province and 57 in neighbouring Ascoli Piceno province.
Rescuers said they had pulled five bodies from the ruins of the Hotel Roma in the historic town of Amatrice. Officials said about 35 people had been staying at the hotel and most had managed to get out. About 10 people were still unaccounted for, a local fire official said.
Late on Wednesday there were cheers in the village of Pescara del Tronto when a young girl was pulled alive from the rubble after being trapped for 17 hours. Almost all the houses there had collapsed, the mayor said.
The 6.2-magnitude quake hit at 03:36 (01:36 GMT) on Wednesday 100km (65 miles) north-east of Rome.
Hardest hit were the small towns and villages in the mountainous area where the regions of Umbria, Lazio and Le Marche meet.
People there spent the night outside or in tents provided by the emergency services.
Among the victims was an 18-month-old toddler, Marisol Piermarini, whose mother Martina Turco survived the deadly 2009 earthquake in L'Aquila and moved away from there after the experience, Italian news agency Ansa reported.
Ms Turco was being treated in hospital after being pulled from the rubble in the village of Arquata del Tronto, Ansa said.
The area has also been shaken by strong aftershocks, including a 4.7-magnitude tremor with its epicentre about 7km east of Norcia, according to the US Geological Survey.
The mayor of Amatrice said three-quarters of the town had been destroyed and no building was safe for habitation.
Many of those affected were on holiday in the region. Some were in Amatrice for a festival to celebrate a famous local speciality - amatriciana bacon and tomato sauce.
The country is no stranger to earthquakes: the 2009 L'Aquila tremor killed more than 300 people and in May 2012 two tremors nine days apart killed more than 20 people in the northern Emilia Romagna region.
Earthquakes are an ever-present danger for those who live along the Apennine mountain range in Italy.
Through the centuries thousands have died as a result of tremors equal to, or not much bigger than, the event that struck in the early hours of Wednesday. The modern response, thankfully, has been more robust building and better preparation.
Mediterranean seismicity is driven by the great collision between the African and Eurasian tectonic plates; but when it comes down to the specifics of this latest quake, the details are far more complicated.
The Tyrrhenian Basin, or Sea, which lies to the west of Italy, between the mainland and Sardinia/Corsica, is slowly opening up.
Scientists say this is contributing to extension, or "pull-apart", along the Apennines. This stress is compounded by movement in the east, in the Adriatic.
The result is a major fault system that runs the length of the mountain range with a series of smaller faults that fan off to the sides. The foundations of cities like Perugia and L'Aquila stand on top of it all. | Thousands of rescuers have searched through the night for survivors following Wednesday's earthquake in a mountainous area of central Italy. |
Please summarize the passage below. | Evans, from Cardiff, admitted unlawfully wounding Michael Wilson after they had been drinking at a Gloucestershire pub for "several hours".
Mr Wilson spent four days in hospital following the incident last October with a broken jaw and a displaced nose.
Evans, 24, was told he could face jail and sentencing was adjourned.
He is the current Olympic silver medal holder at welterweight after he was runner up at the London 2012 Olympics.
Mr Wilson told the court he was "shook up still" and "frightened and nervous".
Judge Jamie Tabor QC ordered a pre-sentence report and bailed Evans until 12 October.
The failure was the latest in a series for Hamilton, who is 23 points behind team-mate Nico Rosberg with five races to go and 125 points still available.
"We have so many engines for eight drivers and mine are the only ones failing," said the Briton.
"Someone has to give me some answers because it is just not acceptable."
Daniel Ricciardo beat Max Verstappen in a Red Bull one-two in a gripping race.
Hamilton said: "To be fighting for the championship and only my engines are failing just doesn't sit right with me.
"There have been many decisive races but this is definitely one of those. Something or someone doesn't want me to win this year but I won't give up. I will keep pushing."
Asked later to clarify what he meant by "someone", Hamilton said: "A higher power. It feels right now as if the man above or a higher power is intervening a little bit. But I feel I have been blessed with so many opportunities. So I have to be grateful for those. While this does not feel great, I have to remain grateful."
Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff said: "It's clear he is super-frustrated. He has been really unfortunate this year. He is losing many points but the championship is not over yet.
"I am so gutted for Lewis. He was in control of that race. Not good."
Hamilton dropped 43 points behind Rosberg after the first four races, in large part because of two identical engine failures in qualifying in consecutive races in China and Russia that forced him to start down the grid.
Hamilton fought back with six wins in the next seven races to take a 19-point lead into the summer break.
Rosberg won in Belgium where Hamilton had to start from the back of the grid after taking new engines to replace the ones that had failed earlier in the year, and a bad start from pole position led to Hamilton finishing second to the German at the next race in Italy.
Rosberg dominated in Singapore, where an out-of-sorts Hamilton finished third, to take an eight-point lead. Hamilton looked set to retake the championship lead in Malaysia only for his engine to fail.
Hamilton has a chance to claw back some of his deficit next Sunday at the Japanese Grand Prix.
He said: "I'm just going to try to recollect myself and get myself together for the next race and try to perform as I did this weekend."

Summarize the following piece. | Gray, 25, died in hospital a week later, sparking riots in Baltimore and protests across the US about the use of lethal force by police.
Gray's injuries were similar to those suffered in shallow-water diving, the report found.
Six Baltimore police officers have been charged in the case.
The driver of the police van, Caesar Goodson, faces the most serious charge - of second-degree murder.
The officers have pleaded not guilty and the trial is expected start in October.
The prosecutor in the case, Marilyn Mosby, condemned the leaking of the report, saying trial evidence should remain confidential.
The state medical examiner's report found Gray's death was not an accident because officers did not properly secure Gray inside the van.
It said that Gray was "at risk for an unsupported fall during acceleration or deceleration of the van".
After Gray's arrest on 12 April, officers shackled his wrists and ankles and placed him inside the van on his stomach.
The authors of report surmised that Gray got to his feet and was eventually thrown into a wall when the van abruptly changed direction.
Gray was arrested after he fled from police officers. Many including Baltimore Police Commissioner Anthony Batts have questioned why Gray was detained in the first place.
Catesby Estates has been granted permission to build 400 homes near Kedleston Hall following a public inquiry in July.
The original plans were rejected last year. In response, the developer submitted proposals for 200 homes.
The National Trust, which runs the hall, was among opponents of the plans.
Updates on this story and more from Derbyshire
Inspector John Gray concluded any harm to the 18th Century mansion would be very limited.
While he acknowledged the hall was a "heritage asset of the greatest importance", he called the plans sustainable and said the 120 affordable homes within the 400 would be of "great public benefit".
Campaigner Isobel Shorrock, from campaign group Kedleston Voice, objected to the plans along with Amber Valley Borough Council.
"In the face of all that, for one man to come along and completely overturn it and not even go for a compromise is not democratic," she said.
"I am furious and I am upset. This isn't a Nimby thing. Kedleston Hall is a national heritage asset and the National Trust and Historic England advised that this should not go ahead... and in the face of all that it has still meant nothing."
Council deputy leader Trevor Ainsworth said the authority will have to get legal advice on whether to seek a judicial review over the inspector's decision.
Catesby Estates said it was not in a position to comment on the decision.
The Airdrie-based company, whose single malts include Old Pulteney, Speyburn, anCnoc and Balblair, said pre-tax profits fell 19.5% last year to £9.5m.
Turnover was also down by 15.2% to £67.2m.
Inver House, which is owned by ThaiBev, said the drop was largely due to a reduction in sales of bulk whiskies and other "value-for-money" products.
It also cited a major reorganisation of distribution arrangements in its key US market.
Inver House said it remained focused on the long-term global success of its brands, having completed a £10m investment programme which included boosting production capacity at its Speyburn distillery in Moray.
In its results statement, the distiller said its core brands had continued to perform strongly in most of its markets.
Its "super-premium" small batch gin Caorunn, which is made at Balmenach Distillery in the Spey valley, also performed strongly, with sales up in value by 65% on last year.
Inver House managing director Graham Stevenson said: "Although our reported profits have fallen, our actual results are slightly ahead of expectations.
"2015 was the start of a period of transition as we began to reduce our reliance on bulk and lower value products, and we took the opportunity to make significant changes to our distribution arrangements in the very important US market.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | The Hemerdon tungsten mine on the edge of Dartmoor in Devon will exploit what is said to be the world's fourth-largest deposit of the metal.
Australian owners Wolf Minerals hope to produce about 3,000 tonnes of tungsten and tin per year.
The opening coincides with a fall in the world tungsten price, but bosses claim the price will recover.
Robin Shail, from the Camborne School of Mines, said: "It's important regionally and nationally. We have a world-class resource based here in the south west.
"This mine site is going to be responsible for between 3-4% of tungsten production worldwide."
Russell Clark, managing director of the company, said: "When the world is developing and growing it's consuming tungsten and it needs supply.
Mr Clark said: "Metal prices go through cycles and this mine will be here for the next 10 to 15 years.
"We're very confident the price will come back and when it does this project will be in a prime spot."
He said the price had "eaten into our margins" but would recover as tungsten was an element "that can't be substituted".
About 200 people are employed at the mine, with many of the senior team from Cornwall's Camborne School of Mines.
Mr Clark's outlook is underpinned by the mine's relatively low operating costs.
It is an open-pit operation because at Hemerdon, near Plymouth, the mineral lies close to the surface.
The price of the metal tends to move in cycles and if it stays low, or falls farther, Wolf Minerals believe other tungsten producers worldwide with higher costs will cease production, reducing supplies of the mineral and encouraging the price to go back up.
The price of tungsten was about $400 for a 10kg unit in November 2013, but it has since dropped to about $200 a unit.
The recent decline has been linked to a fall in Chinese industrial activity. | The first metal mine to open in Britain for more than 40 years has officially opened at a cost of £130m. |
Write a summary of this document. | An NHS Health Scotland report said much of this could be attributed to the economy crashing and the scrapping of multi-buy deals.
There were also a third fewer alcohol-related deaths last year than a decade ago, and a 25% drop in alcohol related hospital admissions since 2007/08.
However, alcohol sales remain 17% higher than in England and Wales.
This was said to mainly be due to higher sales through supermarkets and off-licences in Scotland, particularly of lower-priced spirits.
Since their peak in 2009, alcohol sales have declined by 9% - equivalent to about nine million fewer bottles of wine, three million fewer bottles of spirits or 38 million fewer pints of beer per year.
Although alcohol-related deaths have fallen by 35% since 2003, the report said they remained 1.4 times higher than 1981 and hospital admissions were 1.4 times higher than 1991/92.
The report also showed that the proportion of alcohol sold at below 50p per unit (ppu) in Scotland's off-sales - the initial price proposed for minimum pricing - was declining.
Clare Beeston, principal public health adviser at NHS Health Scotland, said: "Alcohol sales are falling in both Scotland and England and Wales, and it is likely that declining affordability of alcohol, due to the economic downturn across the whole of Great Britain in recent years, is responsible for some of these improvements.
"However, the ban on multi-buy promotions for alcohol and the increased number of people accessing specialist services are also likely to be contributing to the improvements seen in Scotland."
Health Secretary Shona Robison said: "The Scottish government is committed to tackling Scotland's difficult relationship with alcohol, so it is encouraging to see a downward trend in alcohol-related harm, and for this trend to be particularly evident in our most deprived communities.
"However, the fact remains that on average almost 700 people per week are admitted to hospital in Scotland due to alcohol, which is why we are absolutely committed to introducing minimum unit pricing.
"This is about targeting the cheap high-strength alcohol that causes so much harm within our communities, often in the most deprived areas of Scotland."
She added: "Given the link between consumption and harm, and evidence that affordability is one of the drivers of increased consumption, addressing price is an important element of any long-term strategy to tackle alcohol misuse." | Alcohol consumption in Scotland has fallen by the equivalent of 38 million pints of beer a year since 2009. |
What is the summary of the provided article? | The date means the firm will be able to promote Super Mario Odyssey alongside its new Switch console in time for the Thanksgiving and Christmas shopping seasons.
The news was revealed at the end of a pre-recorded video stream broadcast to coincide with the start of the E3 expo.
Nintendo hosts demos at the Los Angeles gaming event, but has not held a large press conference there since 2012.
The Japanese company recently reported a surge in profits thanks to the release of the Switch, which went on sale in March.
The company sold more than 2.7 million units of the device - which doubles as a handheld and desktop machine - in its first month. That made it the firm's fastest-selling hardware product in the US.
Nintendo told investors at the time that it now hoped the console would match the success of the Wii, of which more than 100 million units were sold before production was discontinued in 2013.
"Zelda: Breath of the Wild has got the Switch off to a great start, but it's not until a Nintendo console has a proper Mario game that they can call it a proper success," commented Katharine Byrne, news editor of the games trade magazine MCV.
"Releasing it ahead of Christmas is a good idea because if people haven't bought the console yet then offering it with a Mario game is a strong proposition.
"The Mario games on the Wii U slightly disappointed because everyone had been hoping for a successor to the original Wii's Super Mario Galaxy titles, and Super Mario 3D World didn't hit the same levels.
"But, by the look of things, Super Mario Odyssey is that successor and is what people have been waiting for."
New gameplay from the title showed Mario and his cap - which now acts as an autonomous flying character - in a range of scenarios including a clash with a Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaur, a visit to a Mexican-themed land and a situation in which the plumber is transformed into a saucepan-wielding turtle.
Mario fans were also told they would be able to play a new role-paying title by France's Ubisoft - Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle - which will be released in August.
Other footage screened during the 24-minute video included:
In addition, it was announced that a new Pokemon-themed role-playing game was in development, as is a fourth major entry to the Metroid Prime sci-fi adventure series.
"Metroid Prime 4 is something that Nintendo fans have been clamouring for for ages, so it was a nice just to be able to say it is coming," commented Ms Byrne.
"I think some people would have also expected news of a port of Super Smash Bros for the Switch, but personally I wasn't surprised that it wasn't discussed.
"Having another multiplayer fighting game at this point might be too much, but perhaps it will be announced next year."
Finally, Nintendo is fleshing out the games line-up for the Switch - and it has whipped out some of its most popular characters to do it.
Last year, the company only had one big game to show off at E3 - but now Nintendo fans have games featuring Mario, Yoshi and Kirby to look forward to.
The arrival of smash hit Rocket League shows that third-party developers also see the Switch as a viable marketplace for their games.
Players have been gagging for a full Pokemon game on the Switch and finally one was announced - although it's still "coming soon" and we don't know exactly what it will be.
Hotly anticipated new titles such as Mario Odyssey are still months away, with this summer's releases such as Pokken Tournament DX and Splatoon 2 retreading old ground.
And there are still some Nintendo franchises missing from the line-up, including Animal Crossing.
There's a lot for fans to be excited about - it's just going to take months for them to get their hands on the games. | Nintendo has said its next major Mario game will go on sale on 27 October. |

Germany has taken in more than a million asylum seekers this year, far more than any other European country.
Europe's response to the migration crisis has been criticised by the outgoing head of the UN refugee agency.
Antonio Guterres told the BBC that the EU had been and continued to be "totally unprepared" for the arrival of refugees and "unable to put its act together".

Migrants offered 'bad weather discounts'
The migrants reaching Europe by land
More than one million refugees and migrants have reached Europe by sea since the start of 2015, according to the UNHCR. About half are from Syria.
Germany has been the destination of choice for many of those arriving by sea, and it has also attracted large numbers of migrants from Balkan states.
In her New Year's address to be broadcast on Thursday evening, Mrs Merkel acknowledges that the past year has been challenging but she repeats a message she has used on several occasions: "Wir schaffen es" - we can do it.
She warns that integrating the new arrivals will take "time, strength and money", according to a pre-released text of the speech recorded on Wednesday.
"I am convinced that if we tackle the huge task posed by the influx and integration of so many people in the right way today, then this will represent an opportunity for us tomorrow."
The chancellor does not specifically mention Pegida, which has held large "anti-Islamisation" rallies in Germany, but urges Germans not to follow "those with coldness, or even hate in their hearts, and who claim the right to be called German for themselves alone and seek to marginalise others".
The migrant crisis has strained relations between EU member states, with some countries introducing temporary border controls despite the bloc's principle of passport-free movement.
Criticising the EU's response, Mr Guterres - who is stepping down as UN High Commissioner for Refugees after 10 years - said divisions in Europe meant countries had failed to act.
"For the first time, in meaningful numbers, refugees and other migrants came to Europe - and Europe was totally unprepared for that," he said.
"But not only it was unprepared then, it is still unprepared today. It was unable to put its act together."
Instead, he said, countries had served their own interests - discouraging migrants from entering their borders by introducing increasingly harsh policies.
Some states such as Hungary, Austria and Slovenia have resorted to building fences along their borders to manage the arrivals of thousands of migrants.
Meanwhile, a Danish government proposal to seize assets of asylum-seekers to help fund their stay has drawn sharp criticism. | German Chancellor Angela Merkel is to use her New Year's speech to urge Germans to see the influx of refugees as an opportunity for the future. |
Provide a summary of the section below. | Lee posted a round of 66 to move clear on seven under par at Castle Stuart.
Knox though remains very much in contention for the title.
"The greens were slower today and I struggled with that," he said. "I left a lot of putts short but that was understandable after yesterday."
The conditions were slightly more benign than the harsh winds that dominated yesterday's play
"They probably weren't going to make them as fast just in case it was as windy," added the 31-year-old.
"They're rolling perfect, the whole course is flawless. I just need to hit the putts a little harder.
"I've played nicely. I maybe felt like today I could have been a lot lower but it is what it is.
"I'm going to have to play better a lot better at the weekend to have a chance."
Lee holds a one shot lead over world number 10 Branden Grace and Matteo Manassero who both carded impressive rounds of 67.
Former Open champion Padraig Harrington lies a further shot back
"It puts me in a good position going into the weekend," said Harrington.
"If I kind of play the same way for the next two days then I'll certainly have a chance coming down that back nine on Sunday.
"My game has been coming together. I have seen good things over the last couple of months.
"I've started to putt a little bit better. I've been driving the ball much better. A bit of confidence and I could be right up there."
American Phil Mickelson, 2013 Scottish Open champion, responded from his opening round of 76 to post a three under par total that should ensure he makes the cut for the final two rounds.
Mickelson hopes he can capitalise on predicted calm early weather tomorrow to post a good early score.
"If I go out and shoot a score of six, seven under par, which is out there when the conditions are benign, you never know what might happen to the later groups,' he said.
"That might be enough to get back in it on Sunday." | Home favourite Russell Knox felt he could have scored lower after posting a two under par 70 to sit five shots behind clubhouse leader Danny Lee in the second round of the Scottish Open. |
Summarize the information given below. | Neel Kashkari, president of the Minneapolis Fed, said banks should be separated into "smaller, less connected, less important entities".
The former Goldman Sachs executive urged Congress to go further than the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010.
Mr Kashkari also questioned the tools for winding down troubled banks.
He said in a speech: "I am far more sceptical that these tools will be useful," and cautioned that "we won't see the next crisis coming".
Mr Kashkari, a key figure at the US Treasury under Secretary Henry Paulson during the financial crisis, said: "Now is the right time for Congress to consider going further than Dodd-Frank with bold, transformational solutions to solve this problem once and for all."
In his first speech as president of the Minneapolis Fed, since being appointed in January, Mr Kashkari, said: "The financial sector has lobbied hard to preserve its current structure and thrown up endless objections to fundamental change.
"And in the immediate aftermath of the crisis, when the Dodd-Frank Act was passed, the economic outlook was perhaps too uncertain to take truly bold action.
"But the economy is stronger now, and the time has come to move past parochial interests and solve this problem. The risks of not doing so are just too great."
The 19-year-old has made 13 league appearances for Phil Parkinson's side so far, scoring once.
He briefly went back to the Premier League club for treatment on a knee problem, but now returns to Yorkshire.
"We are very pleased Reece is remaining with us. We are going to need everyone over this busy Christmas period," City boss Parkinson told the club website.
The former star is suing the force for damages after he was detained in 2007 over the death of Stuart Lubbock.
Mr Lubbock was found dead in a swimming pool at Mr Barrymore's home in 2001.
In High Court documents, the force admits the detective who was supposed to arrest the star was delayed.
The force said it wanted to question Mr Barrymore, whose real name is Michael Parker, and two other men over the rape and murder of Mr Lubbock after new evidence emerged.
Post-mortem tests found the 31-year-old butcher had suffered severe internal injuries indicating sexual assault and his bloodstream contained ecstasy, cocaine and alcohol.
Mr Barrymore and the other men were arrested and later released without charge.
In its defence document, Essex Police said: "The arrest of the claimant was unlawful only by reason of the fact the arresting officer, PC Cootes, was not fully aware of the grounds for arrest... and not by reason of a lack of reasonable grounds to suspect the claimant."
PC Cootes, who was carrying out covert surveillance at the property where Mr Barrymore was staying in 2007, was ordered to make the arrest when the designated officer, Det Con Sue Jenkins, was delayed.
"Since the claimant would have been lawfully arrested but for the said delay, he is entitled only to nominal damages for false imprisonment," the defence document added.
Mr Barrymore's lawyers said police did not have reasonable grounds for suspecting him of the rape or murder of Mr Lubbock, and the arrest was unlawful and "wholly disproportionate and unreasonable".
Their court documents also said Mr Barrymore "suffered loss and damage namely distress, shock, anxiety and damage to his reputation".
He has also claimed his career suffered because of the police handling of the case.
Essex Police said if earnings had been lost, it would be because of "matters outside the defendant's control", including that a young man had been found dead in his swimming pool which had "inevitably" led to a police investigation and inquest.
A decision will be made in the New Year by a High Court judge about compensation Mr Barrymore may receive. | The newest US Federal Reserve member has called for banks to be broken up, and says post-financial crisis safety measures do not go far enough.

What is the summary of the given information? | As Conservative Party chairman under Margaret Thatcher in the early 1980s, he played a key role in the Tories' 1983 general election victory.
Lord Parkinson quit the cabinet soon after when it emerged his ex-secretary Sara Keays was carrying his child.
Prime Minister David Cameron said he was "a man of huge ability" who had helped transform the UK in the 1980s.
Paying tribute in Downing Street, Mr Cameron said he had "learnt a lot" from Lord Parkinson at the start of his political career, describing him as part of "a great political generation that really did extraordinary things for our country".
And Mark Thatcher said Lord Parkinson had been a "great personal friend" to his family.
As they confirmed his death, a family spokesman said: "We shall miss him enormously. As a family, we should like to pay tribute to him as a beloved husband to Ann and brother to Norma, and a supportive and loving father to Mary, Emma and Joanna and grandfather to their children.
"We also salute his extraordinary commitment to British public life as a member of parliament, cabinet minister and peer - together with a distinguished career in business."
The BBC's assistant political editor Norman Smith said Cecil Parkinson was one of Margaret Thatcher's closest political allies but said that his career was "undone" by the scandal that engulfed him following his affair with Ms Keays.
The former chartered accountant and businessman was central to Margaret Thatcher's political agenda and achievements in office, he added.
Lord Parkinson was in the front rank of Conservative politics for three decades, first being elected to Parliament in 1970.
After becoming a junior minister after Margaret Thatcher's 1979 election victory, he swiftly rose through the ranks and was named party chairman and elevated to the cabinet in 1981. He was a member of the war cabinet during the 1982 Falklands conflict.
He was tipped to be named foreign secretary after overseeing the Tories' landslide election victory in 1983. But he was given the more junior role of trade and industry secretary and it later emerged he had fathered a child with his former secretary, prompting him to resign in October 1983.
Former Conservative cabinet minister Michael Portillo said this scandal had "definitely held back his career" but the fact that he was offered a cabinet post at all was testament to his closeness to the PM.
Former Foreign Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind said Lord Parkinson would have been "the most natural candidate" to succeed Margaret Thatcher had events not turned out in the way they did.
"John Major eventually filled the gap that Cecil Parkinson would have had," he told the BBC News Channel. "But Cecil Parkinson was in reality a Thatcherite while John Major, as Margaret Thatcher eventually discovered, was not nearly as close to her, as she had hoped and assumed".
The former prime minister regarded Cecil Parkinson as "one of us", Sir Malcolm added: "He shared her views, thoughts and ideas. She was comfortable with him and had confidence in him, In addition, at a personal level, he was able to charm her."
After being brought back into government by Margaret Thatcher in 1987, Cecil Parkinson served as energy and transport secretaries.
He stood down as an MP in 1992 and was elevated to the House of Lords. He briefly made a comeback as Tory Party chairman, under William Hague, after the party's general election hammering in 1997.
Lord Hague described him as "an exceptional talent and an extraordinarily nice man to work with".
Other members of the current government have also been paying tribute. Chancellor George Osborne tweeted: "Sad to hear of death of Cecil Parkinson. I worked with him when he was party chairman in 1997-8 - he was there in our hour of greatest need."
And former minister Alan Duncan said Lord Parkinson was "personable, amusing, easy-going and mischievously witty". "He started as Margaret Thatcher's great marketing man for overseas trade and turned into one of the great personalities of the Thatcher era," he said.
When the scandal over Cecil Parkinson's infidelity broke during the 1983 Conservative Party conference, Ms Keays claimed the politician had agreed to leave his wife Ann for her.
In her book, A Question Of Judgement, Ms Keays claimed that the then Mr Parkinson had "begged" her to have an abortion and that he had "haggled over every pound" of financial support for their daughter Flora.
But the Conservative politician insisted that he had voluntarily made more than adequate provision for Flora - who was diagnosed at an early age with learning disabilities and Asperger's syndrome, and had an operation to remove a brain tumour when she was four.
In 1993, Cecil Parkinson and Sara Keays secured an injunction to prevent any information being published about Flora or her schooling until she turned 18. The court order was designed to protect her privacy but was later disowned by Miss Keays.
In an interview in 2002, after the gagging order had expired, Flora Keays said her father had "behaved very badly" towards her and her mother but hoped that one day he would become "part of our lives". | Cecil Parkinson has died aged 84 after what his family said was "a long battle with cancer". |
Summarize the following content briefly. | The 26-year-old right-back arrived at Pittodrie on loan from Brentford in January and was in the League Cup final-winning side.
He will sign a two-year contract at the beginning of July, with manager Derek McInnes saying: "We're really pleased to get Shay.
"He will no longer be a loan player and will be an Aberdeen player and I think that's really important."
Logan, who joined Brentford in 2011, made 19 appearances for the Dons, scoring once.
And McInnes added: "I thought he showed enough in his loan spell with us last season in terms of his qualities and we're just looking for that consistency of performance going forward.
"We're delighted he sees Aberdeen as the place to play his football and we're looking forward to working with him again." | Aberdeen have agreed a pre-contract deal with Shaleum Logan. |
Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Judith Thompson also told a committee of MPs at Westminister that national security should not be used to hide uncomfortable facts.
Ms Thompson was giving evidence to the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee
She testified about the issues affecting victims of the Troubles.
She also addressed the efforts to secure a political agreement on how best to deal with the past.
One of the hurdles surrounds the government's use of national security when it comes to deciding what information can be made public.
The victims commissioner described the controversy around national security as the "elephant in the corner" which needs to be addressed.
Ms Thompson told the committee that 500,000 people in Northern Ireland- equivalent to about one third of the population - have been affected by the Troubles
She said about 200,000 of those have mental health issues, while 40,000 have suffered injuries
The victims commissioner said that only 18,000 people have come forward for help
She was challenged by DUP MP Gavin Robinson about remarks she made in March about government hiding behind national security. Mr Robinson asked her whether she thought such language was helpful.
"Do you believe that government is using national security issues as a rock of convenience to hide uncomfortable truths?" Mr Robinson asked Ms Thompson.
Ms Thompson replied: "I believe that there has not yet been full openness and disclosure on anyone's part about the past and yes government, as other players, would be part of that."
However, she said she believed a way could be found to break the deadlock.
"It should be possible to find a mechanism that is seen as sufficiently impartial to determine if something is a matter for national security or personal safety and to do so without compromising the government's right to be in control of that," she said.
"That is the conversation which needs to be happening right now.
"One of the big issues for many on both parts of the community is a loss of trust in each other and in government.
"Re-establishing trust is essential and so therefore having an oversight mechanism which people can accept as being impartial so that national security and people's safety can be preserved, but people know it's not something anyone can use to hide uncomfortable facts."
The commissioner said the package of measures for dealing with the past in the Stormont House Agreement should be implemented as soon as possible. But she warned that the financial resources may not be in place to fully implement the package.
It also emerged during Wednesday morning's session that 30 UDR widows have lost their pensions after remarrying. Ms Thompson said this needed to addressed in the interest of equality.

Can you provide a brief summary for this document? | It will be the first game in the series to be played outside of the competing nations, of Australia, Argentina, New Zealand and South Africa.
The game will count as a 'home' fixture for Argentina and will conclude this year's competition.
The two countries met at Twickenham last year when Australia won a World Cup semi-final by 29-15.
A 4-2 win against plucky junior side Linlithgow Rose moved County into the quarter final of the Scottish Cup.
The Staggies also face Hibs at Hampden Park in next month's League Cup Final.
"There are a lot of hard league games to play before those matches, starting with Hearts on Wednesday night. That is the priority for us," McIntyre said.
The aim will be to emulate near neighbours Inverness Caledonian Thistle, who won the Scottish Cup last season.
However, McIntyre is determined his team don't get distracted from the task of a top six finish in the league.
They face third placed Hearts at the Global Energy Stadium in midweek and McIntyre has made it clear where his priority lies.
He said: "We are not thinking about another cup final at this stage as we are only in the quarter final at the moment.
"We will see what the draw brings and we will take it from there.
"Of course we are delighted to be in the last eight and we have the League Cup Final to look forward to."
McIntyre made six changes from the team that beat Celtic in the League Cup semi final last weekend.
He admits that move backfired in terms of the performance and that the East Superleague leaders deserve all the plaudits.
"We got off to a great start with the early goal but I felt we were really sloppy in our possession of the ball and didn't move it quickly enough.
"Great credit goes to Linlithgow. Sometimes when you make six changes as we did things go ok but not today.
"It disrupted us but I don't want to take anything away from them because they played well and were well set up.
"They scored a good second goal as well so they deserve real credit.
"When they got it back to 3-2 you think "here we go" but luckily for us Brian Graham got a quick quality goal so we could see it out."
Linlithgow Rose manager David McGlynn was delighted with the character and determination his players showed despite their Scottish Cup exit at Dingwall.
"I was very proud of the players and we scored a great second goal so credit to the players and the fans for the way they backed us," McGlynn said.
"We did well against a very good Premiership side who showed their quality at set plays especially.
"This was a fairytale end to the Scottish Cup to get the chance to play top flight opposition that are already in one cup final themselves.
"But we are all about winning trophies and in the junior game we are ranked up there with the best of them so we need to make sure we show that in those competitions." | Argentina and Australia will play each other in a Rugby Championship Test at Twickenham on Saturday, 8 October.

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | The US is attempting to extradite Lauri Love, 31, on charges of hacking into the US Army, Nasa and US Federal Reserve networks.
The agency (NCA) seized the computers during a raid at Mr Love's home in Stradishall, Suffolk, in October 2013.
A call to hand over passwords was rejected by a district judge.
For more on this go to the BBC Suffolk Local Live site
Delivering her judgment at London's Westminster Magistrates' Court, District Judge Nina Tempia said the NCA should have used the normal police powers rather than a civil action to obtain the information.
"I'm not granting the application because, to obtain the information sought, the correct procedure to use - as the NCA did two-and-a-half years ago - is RIPA (Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act) and the inherent safeguards incorporated thereafter," she said.
She added the powers of the court should not be used to "circumnavigate" existing laws and the safeguards.
Law enforcement agencies continue to pursue their latest public enemy number one: encryption.
Very simply, encryption means that data is converted to illegible code that can only be unscrambled when the correct "key" is used.
Often, even tech companies can't read the data on encrypted devices used by their customers.
Recently, the FBI sought to compel Apple into helping the bureau gain access to an iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino killers.
Although they had the backing of the US courts, Apple refused - and agents had to find a way into the handset themselves.
In Lauri Love's case, the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA) hoped to access computer equipment by forcing Mr Love to give up the key, but this request has not been approved by the district judge.
As journalist David Allen Green noted in a blog, such approval would have allowed the NCA to "sidestep" the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act.
Privacy campaigners have already praised the decision - but the authorities' longer battle over encryption technologies is unlikely to end here.
Speaking outside court following the ruling, Mr Love said he was "happy" with the result and accused the NCA of trying to undermine protections safeguarding individuals' property.
He said: "It is a victory, although it is a more an avoidance of disaster.
"It retains the status quo, which means there has to be safeguards before you force people to undermine their security."
Mr Love is accused of stealing "massive quantities" of sensitive data resulting in millions of dollars of losses and his lawyers say he faces up to 99 years in prison in the US if he is found guilty.
After the raid, no charges were brought in Britain against Love, but the NCA wanted him to hand over his passwords so officers can check the data before all the electronics were returned.
Mr Love's team says the application, if granted, would be a significant blow to privacy and amounts to a "power grab" by the security services.

"Is the person a significant figure who made a positive and lasting public impact? Does the London building where the person lived or worked still stand? And has the person been dead for more than 20 years?"
A spokeswoman said EH did not want to "sway nominations towards particular women, so we haven't put together a list of women who don't have plaques.
"This will mean that we can assemble a full list of really diverse nominations.
"We need to have people helping us dig for them."

Give a brief summary of the content. | Greenham Control Tower in Berkshire had been unused since 1992 when the parish council started work to turn it into a visitor centre in 2014.
The authority, which had received a £421,000 government grant, ran out of money for the project last year.
The council agreed at a meeting on Wednesday to apply for further funding.
Work to install a viewing platform at the top of the building, a cafe and Cold War exhibition is nearly complete.
However, structural work was more costly than expected and some residents have accused the council of overspending.
But councillor Jon Gage, lead member for the project, said he was optimistic the tower would eventually "pay for itself".
He told the BBC he was confident the centre would be open by the end of the year.
The airbase was originally made available to the US military in 1951, and was used for joint operations with the British until its closure.
This inspired 83-year-old former RAF gunner Alan Mercado to write to US president Donald Trump asking for additional funds for the tower in March. | A council which has spent almost £700,000 restoring a Cold War airbase is applying for a further £100,000 loan to finish the project off. |
Please provide a summary for the content below. | The drinks giant said that under the new Diverted Profits Tax regime, HMRC will ask for more tax and interest for the past two financial years.
Diageo said it would challenge the HMRC's assessment.
However, the company said it will have to pay £107m then work with HMRC to resolve the issue.
Diageo, which owns brands including Johnnie Walker whisky and Tanqueray gin, said: "The payment of this sum is not a reflection of Diageo's view on the merits of the case and, based on its current assessment, Diageo considers no provision is required in relation to Diverted Profits Tax."
The company does not expect the situation to have an effect on its tax for the current financial year to June, and expects the rate to be 21%.
The dispute centres on profits that have been moved between the UK and the Netherlands.

John Heald, 53, of Foljambe Road, Rotherham, also faces three counts of rape in the Sheffield area on 13 July.
Prosecutors told Hull Crown Court that Mr Heald went to Bridlington where he stabbed landlady Bei Carter to death.
Mr Heald denies murder, but accepts he was responsible for Ms Carter's death which he said was an accident.
Graham Reeds QC, for the prosecution, told the jury that Mr Heald raped a woman known at knifepoint on the 13 July.
The court heard that when police went to investigate the offences he had fled.
He spent the next few days on the run, the court was told.
He then caught a train to Bridlington in East Yorkshire where he checked into the Morayland Hotel which was run by Bei Carter and her husband Terry.
On the 18 July, the jury heard, Mr Heald "violently attacked" and murdered Bei Carter.
Mr Reeds said the post-mortem examination showed Mrs Carter had been stabbed once through the chest and that the degree of internal bleeding was so severe she died immediately.
Mr Heald then returned to Rotherham and spent the next week on the run until he was arrested on the afternoon of Friday 25 July after a police search.

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | Elliott now leads reigning champion Willie Mullins in the Irish jump racing season's prize-money-determined title race by almost 500,000 Euro (£424,500).
The highlight was the win for Empire Of Dirt (12-1) in the day's feature race for jockey Bryan Cooper.
"I've never had six at one meeting on a day before," said Elliott.
"I did have seven once spread between Bellewstown and Perth - I can't believe it; they were good races too.
"It's a day to enjoy - I have a good bunch of staff and a lot of nice horses - we're delighted."
Asked about taking the championship that Mullins has dominated for eight seasons, Elliott insisted that he had "no chance, no chance" of wrestling it away.
It was a third win in a row in the Troytown for the Cheltenham Gold Cup and Grand National-winning trainer, who saddled 11 of the 25 runners.
The nine-year old Empire of Dirt, running in the colours of airline tycoon Michael O'Leary's Gigginstown House Stud racing operation, has April's Aintree Grand National as a long-term aim and is currently a 33-1 shot for the race.
The Gigginstown-owned Rule The World was victorious in this year's Grand National.
Willie Mullins has dominated Irish jump racing in general - and many of the big national hunt races right across these islands in particular - for eight seasons, but perhaps the balance is now shifting.
Mullins has the support of multi-millionaire American financier Rich Ricci - their horse Min was the only non-Elliott horse to win at Navan - but he did lose 60 horses owned by the Gigginstown House operation two or three months ago, which was a massive blow, and Elliott was one of the beneficiaries.
The ex-jump jockey simply churns out runners - 27 at Navan - at a very decent winning percentage, and if he keeps up this momentum could take some catching. Though Mullins has yet to race many big guns this season. | Irish trainer Gordon Elliott won six of the day's seven races at Navan's prestigious Troytown Chase fixture at accumulated odds of 41,276-1. |

Summarize this article briefly. | The four-day "pea-souper", while worse than usual, was a familiar experience for Londoners.
Visibility was so poor buses and taxis ground to a halt, forcing commuters to hurry underground to use the Tube.
In the Isle of Dogs in east London, the fog was reported to be so thick people could not see their feet and animals dropped dead at the Smithfield Show.
According to the Met Office "the smoke-like pollution was so toxic it was even reported to have choked cows to death in the fields".
A Ministry of Health comparison between the excess of deaths registered in the weeks ending 13 and 20 December and those occurring in the preceding weeks produced estimates of the number of deaths caused by the smog ranging from 3,412 to 4,075.
By Peter CockroftMeteorologist, BBC London
Winter arrived early in 1952 and very cold snowy weather in November continued into December.
Londoners tried to keep warm by burning lots of coal on their home fires. This extra domestic smoke added to that belched out by power stations and factory chimneys.
As an area of high pressure arrived over the capital, the skies cleared and the wind fell light. On 5 December fog started to form.
In a "high" the air is pushing down - exerting a higher pressure. So, anything in the lowest part of the atmosphere becomes trapped; in this case the noxious combination of smoke and fog - smog.
Because the winds remained light there was nothing to blow it away.
Thousands of tonnes of soot and carbon dioxide were pumped into London's air, made worse by some of the fog droplets turning into harmful acids.
Little wonder then, at the time, Londoners described "gasping for air".
According to the General Register Office, respiratory diseases alone accounted for 59% of the increase in deaths registered in the week ending 13 December and 76% in the following week.
The main pollutant, sulphur dioxide, was linked to coal burning which was said to have reached exceptional levels.
The legacy of the Great Smog was the Clean Air Act of 1956 which introduced a number of measures to reduce air pollution.
Furnaces could no longer emit "dark smoke" and households were offered grants towards the cost of converting their coal-burning grates to smokeless fuel.
A broad consensus believed the legislation had a major impact on improving public health.
But new pollution threats are causing concern as air pollution mortality figures remain almost the same.
Lawyer Alan Andrews, of environmental organisation ClientEarth, said an estimated 4,300 Londoners now died each year as a result of air pollution (29,000 UK-wide, according to the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs).
This is no longer because of coal fires but is put down to nitrogen dioxide caused mainly by traffic fumes, he said.
"The UK is failing to meet European Union (EU) air quality standards.
"London is thought to have the highest levels of nitrogen dioxide of any capital city in the EU, with levels on some of London's busiest roads, such as Brixton Road and Putney High Street, currently more than triple legal limits," he said.
ClientEarth says the government's own plans show 16 regions and cities will not achieve legal limits for air quality until 2020, and London will have "illegal levels of air pollution until 2025".
Dr Frank Kelly, professor of environmental health at London's King's College, said legislation worked in the 1950s to deal with pollution but new laws were needed now.
"There's been a dramatic increase in car ownership and traffic, more taxis and buses, so it's a new type of pollution. Legislation is once again required," he said.
He said the introduction of the Congestion Charge in 2003 and the Low Emission Zone (LEZ) in 2008 had only made a "tiny difference" to air quality in the capital.
Dr Kelly said air quality was known to be a key factor in the UK's biggest health problems - heart disease, strokes and diabetes.
"We've known this for the last decade but politicians are only just waking up to it. We need to clean the air up," he said.
Under EU air quality laws daily pollution levels must not be above the legal limit on more than 35 days in a calendar year.
But air pollution levels in London had already exceeded EU daily limits 36 times this year by April.
A Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) spokesperson said: "We want to keep improving air quality and reduce the impact it can have on human health and the environment.
"Our air quality has improved significantly in recent decades and is now generally very good, and almost all of the UK meets EU air quality limits for all pollutants.
"London, like many of our big cities, is one of the limited areas where air pollution remains an issue.
"However, air quality plans outline all the important work being done at national, regional and local level will ensure we meet EU limits as soon as possible." | Sixty years ago thick smog descended on London, contributing to the deaths of an estimated 4,000 people. |
Please summarize the given passage. | Denmark's centre-right government had wanted to abandon some Danish opt-outs from EU home affairs legislation.
But with all votes now counted, more than 53% said No to the proposals.
The vote comes weeks after the Paris attacks and as Europe struggles to deal with record numbers of migrants.
"It is a clear no," Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said, adding he had "full respect" for the voters' decision.
Profile: Denmark's anti-EU party
The government, backed by the opposition, had campaigned for Yes, saying it would help Danish authorities in the wake of the Paris attacks.
Ultimately, voting No means Denmark remains exempt from large parts of the EU's criminal justice and home affairs system, a position it negotiated in 1993.
It risks losing access to Europol, Europe's crime and intelligence-sharing agency, a service frequently used by Denmark.
The confusing wording of the referendum question seems to have been a factor.
One voter described it as "the most baffling in the history of the EU", and on the foggy, wet streets of Copenhagen, that sentiment seemed to be shared by voters as they left polling stations, saying the question was too complicated and technical, and that explanations from politicians were not comprehensive.
For Denmark's government, urgent talks will now take place between Copenhagen and Brussels, to work out the ramifications of what the No vote means.
The result is likely to have been monitored by British politicians, interested to see with the upcoming UK referendum battle about to play out, how the gut instinct of the voters can be tied to current European events, and how the particular phrasing of the question can discourage or influence how tied-in to the European project Britons want to be.

Several of the Paris attackers were French nationals who had been living in neighbouring Belgium. At least one surviving gunman, Salah Abdeslam, is thought to have fled across the French border in the aftermath of the shootings and suicide blasts in Paris on 13 November.
The result means Denmark will have to negotiate a special agreement to stay inside Europol, the EU's law enforcement agency which tackles organised crime and terrorism.
"We will work very hard for the Danes to get the best possible agreement. But it will be difficult," Soren Gade of the governing Venstre party told the Ritzau news agency.
The anti-immigration Danish People's Party (DPP), which props up Mr Rasmussen's administration in parliament, had urged voters to say No to avoid giving away further sovereignty to Brussels.
Although a Yes vote would not have affected Denmark's opt-out on immigration, the DPP argued that it could eventually have led to immigration policies being dictated by the EU.
Unlike Denmark, the UK and Ireland have opt-ins on justice and home affairs legislation, which enable them to choose whether to accept or reject legislation on a case-by-case basis.
The result of the referendum is likely to be of interest in Britain, whose government is trying to renegotiate its relations with the EU before holding a vote on whether to remain in the bloc. | Danes have rejected adopting EU rules on cross-border policing in a referendum that could have seen the country take closer ties with the bloc, according to final results. |
Summarize the provided section. | The team, which competes in Para-dressage, is completed by 67-year-old Anne Dunham, who will be competing at her fifth Games after missing out on selection four years ago.
Dunham, who has won five golds over her career, is set to be the oldest member of the ParalympicsGB team travelling to the Games in September.
As well as bidding for individual titles, the riders will be hoping to maintain GB's unbeaten record at European, world and Paralympic level in the team competition that has stood since the sport was first introduced into the Paralympics in Atlanta in 1996.
Pearson, 42, who already has 10 golds to his name since making his debut in Sydney in 2000, will ride his own horse, Zion, who he has paired with regularly in competition since London.
"It's very surreal to be heading to my fifth Games and makes me sound very old," said Pearson.
"I do feel surprised on selection, as it's such a strong squad - it makes you appreciate it even more."

"I can't wait to see what Rio has to offer, it will be a very different Games to London but I think my time in Athens and Beijing has prepared me well," she said.
"The Paralympic Games has grown massively since I made my debut in Athens and I can't wait to see where it goes in the future. I think that London was the pinnacle and I really hope that even though it's not a home Games, that people will get behind us again."

Summarize the content given in the passage. | Senator Elizabeth Warrren told Mr Stumpf he should step down as his bank had "squeezed" its employees "so they would cheat customers".
Bank workers had opened more than two million deposit and credit card accounts without customers' permission.
Mr Stumpf said he was "deeply sorry" for that and failing to act quickly.
The bank was fined $185m (£142m) earlier this month and accused of "widespread illegal practice" by the regulator.
Wells Fargo fired more than 5,000 staff in response to the scandal.
"I am deeply sorry we failed to fulfil our responsibility," said Mr Stumpf, before a hearing of the Senate banking committee.
"There is no question with some of our customers we violated trust," he added.
"We never directed nor wanted our team members to provide products and services to our customers that they didn't want.
"That said, I accept full responsibility for all unethical sales practices," he said.
But Senator Warren, who has long been a critic of the US banking industry, was unmoved by his apology.
"You squeezed your employees to the breaking point so they would cheat customers,'' she said.
"You should resign. You should give back the money you took while the scam was going on," she added.
Mr Stumpf has so far ignored calls for him to step down from his post in the wake of the scandal.
"We recognise now that we should have done more sooner to eliminate unethical conduct or incentives that may have unintentionally encouraged that conduct," he said.
Wells Fargo said it would be contacting every deposit customer across the country to see if their accounts were properly authorised.
It will also contact hundreds of thousands of customers with open credit cards to see if they want or need those cards.
In the future, confirmation emails will be sent to customers within one hour of the opening of a new deposit account.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The move at Neil Woodford's fund management business runs counter to conventional wisdom in the City that bonuses are needed to motivate staff.
His firm's 35 staff will get a rise in basic pay and benefits as compensation.
Mr Woodford, whose firm has £14bn under management, built a reputation as star stock-picker at Invesco Perpetual.
He set up his own boutique fund in 2014, quickly attracting money from investors hoping that he will replicate years of above-average returns achieved at Invesco.
Craig Newman, chief executive and co-founder of Woodford Investment Management, said in statement: "While bonuses are an established feature of the financial sector, Neil and I wanted to take the opportunity to do something different that supports the firm's culture and ethos of challenging the status quo.
"There is little correlation between bonus and performance and this is backed by widespread academic evidence. Many studies conclude that bonuses don't work as a motivator, as expectation is already built in. Behavioural studies also suggest that bonuses can lead to short-term decision making and wrong behaviours," he said.
The best fund managers can earn millions of pounds in performance-linked bonuses. But following the financial crisis there has been increasing criticism of the links between remuneration and performance.
However, supporters of bonuses argue they are essential to retain good staff who would move on without some other form of compensation.
It is also argued that paying higher salaries increases a firm's fixed costs, making it harder to make cutbacks in the event of a downturn.
To back up the claim that bonuses are ineffective or damaging, the statement from Mr Woodford's firm points to several academic studies, and quotes from an article in the specialist publication The Journal of Corporation Law.
This said: "Financial incentives are often counterproductive as they encourage gaming, fraud and other dysfunctional behaviours that damage the reputation and culture of the organisation.
"They produce the misleading assumption that most people are selfish and self-interested, which in turn erodes trust." | One of the UK's most respected investors has scrapped bonuses at his firm, arguing that they are "largely ineffective" in boosting performance. |
Write a brief summary of the document. | But it was unheard of before 1993, when Rob Newman and then comedy partner David Baddiel became the first comics to sell out Wembley Arena.
With Steve Punt and Hugh Dennis, they formed The Mary Whitehouse Experience in the 1990s, before getting their own show, Newman and Baddiel in Pieces.
It was such a success the pair went on tour - but by then the cracks were showing.
They later admitted that for part of the tour, the only time they spoke to each other was to deliver lines.
Baddiel said in an interview: "It was incredibly acrimonious. I remember people saying at the time that it was a publicity stunt, but it really wasn't. We weren't speaking at times, except on stage... It's interesting in terms of fame, in that it's quite toxic, and it certainly was in that relationship."
Newman - now a writer as much as a comedian - was "affected by fame" and became a "difficult person to work with", he said at the time. Baddiel went on to further fame on Fantasy Football with Frank Skinner, while Newman pretty much retreated from the limelight.
So imagine fans' delight when Newman got back in touch with his former partner earlier this year.
In a slightly clunky tweet, he requested free tickets to Baddiel's show about his father's dementia (inspiring one reply of "See that freeloader? That's you, that is", in a nod to their catchphrase).
He said the show was "heart-warming" and "very, very funny". It was the first time they'd been in the same room since 1993 - though Baddiel said they'd bumped into each other a few times "in various parks and streets".
And now, they've been publicly reunited at the Harper Collins summer party - leading to many fans (and some fellow celebs) pinning their hopes on them getting back together.
Others said they hoped it meant they were getting back together for a one-off series - but Baddiel has previously vowed they would never work together again.
While that might dash the hopes of comedy fans, at least they're on speaking terms.

"It doesn't seem as if they've got that hunger there any more."

Wenger is into his 21st year as Arsenal manager but is out of contract at the end of the season.
The 67-year-old Frenchman said two weeks ago that a decision on his future would be revealed "soon", but no announcement has been made.
Speaking on BBC Radio 5 live's Friday Sports Panel, Smith added: "I think by him keeping quiet, it's obviously not helping the whole situation.
"It's quite hard being around the training ground because the tension is running very, very high just with the pure fact no-one knows whether Wenger is going or staying."
Speaking at his weekly news conference, Wenger confirmed that he is preparing for next season.
"If I stay two months or 10 years, I plan. I do my job exactly the same," he said.
Arsenal chairman Sir Chips Keswick said recently the club's season had been "rather disappointing" but did not offer any clarification about Wenger's future.
Earlier this month, the Gunners were knocked out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage for the seventh consecutive season.
They are also in danger of failing to finish in the top four for the first time under Wenger, as they sit six points adrift of fourth-place Liverpool, though have two games in hand.
"I think he needs to make a decision just for the pure love of the club," Smith added.
"No manager is bigger than the club and I think Arsene Wenger is running the club at the minute. There's nobody above him making the decisions."

Starting on 153-6, the visitors added just 23 more runs to trail by 42 as Ben Sanderson finished with 5-52.
Max Holden and Newton (108) made 92 for the first wicket, and Newton added 133 alongside Alex Wakely (79).
Tony Palladino removed Holden and Newton for the visitors, before another McKerr wicket left it 247-4 at stumps.
Derbyshire were a man light with Luis Reece spending Friday night in hospital after complaining of breathing difficulties on day one, but the club say he is "feeling much better in himself".
Newton, who has also scored four half-centuries this season, recorded the 12th first-class ton of his career to help his side to a healthy 289-run advantage.
Janet Clarke, 80, said she saw four dogs tossing five-year-old Fluffy in the air in a tug of war behind her Herefordshire cottage.
The cat died in her porch.
Ross Harriers Hunt apologised, adding the hounds got through a hole in the hedge and it was "very unusual" for them to leave their trail.

The incident happened on Saturday in Marlas, near Kilpeck, after the hunt laid a scent trail through nearby woods.
Ms Clarke said: "I was at my back door and saw the cat being tossed in the air with about four hounds around it, pulling on it in sort of a tug of war.
"I was shouting and raving in a panic to try to save the cat but, after I looked at it, it was obvious there was no hope."
Anna Ernsting, joint master at Ross Harriers Hunt, said: "Unfortunately a small number of the hounds strayed into the Clarke's garden through a hole in the hedge and their cat died.
"It is very unusual for our hounds to leave the trail laid for them. We are very sorry that it happened and for the distress this caused the family.
"I apologised to Mr and Mrs Clarke at the time of the incident and visited again on Sunday to pass on our sincere apologies." | Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is "not helping" the club by delaying an announcement on his future, and his players have lost their hunger, says Arsenal Ladies legend Kelly Smith.

Summarize this article briefly. | The pro-Remain organisation is also warning manufacturing jobs would go and employments right be put at risk.
TUC general secretary Frances O'Grady said trade and investment would be affected by an EU exit.
But another union chief, the RMT's Mick Cash, said the EU had pursued a "race to the bottom" on workers' rights and could never be reformed.
Publication of the TUC's research comes amid a drive to recruit traditional Labour voters by the rival sides ahead of the 23 June referendum.
It said the manufacturing sector would be hit seven times harder than those in the services sector because it exports so much to the EU.
How working conditions and pay rates are affected by EU membership.
Ms O'Grady said: "Thirty eight pounds a week may not be much for politicians like Boris Johnson, but for millions of workers, it's the difference between heating or eating, between struggling or saving, and between getting by or getting on."
But Mr Cash - whose union represents people in the transport industry - said the EU was no "workers' paradise", pointing to industrial unrest in France and high unemployment rates in other countries.
He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "We as a union have opposed being members of the EU since 1979, because we do not think workers have benefited from it." | Average UK wages would be £38 a week lower by 2030 if the UK votes to leave the EU, the Trades Union Congress says. |

Timeliner: Meeting the voters
Timeliner: Is this thing on?
After an encounter with 65-year-old pensioner and Rochdale resident Gillian Duffy, who asked the then prime minister about a range of subjects including immigration, Brown retreated to the apparently safe confines of his car, whereupon he vented his frustration at the woman. It was a "disaster", he told an aide, complaining about that "bigoted woman".
Trouble was, his broadcast microphone microphone was still pinned to his shirt - and picked up everything. The recordings went public, and were even played back to Brown live on BBC Radio 2.
A grovelling phone apology to Mrs Duffy followed, but it wasn't enough, so the PM had to go back to Rochdale to apologise to Mrs Duffy in person.
John Prescott hit the headlines (no pun intended...) for all the wrong reasons during the 2001 general election campaign. It was the day of Labour's manifesto launch in Birmingham, and the-then deputy prime minister was on his way to an election rally in Rhyl, north Wales. But after stepping off his battle bus he was egged by a protestor.
In the heat of the moment Prescott threw a punch at the man and an undignified scuffle over a wall ensued - in full view of the TV cameras. The incident earned the deputy PM the nickname "Two Jabs" - a variation on the more familiar "Two Jags" born from his apparent fondness for luxury cars.
Ed Miliband isn't the first - and likely won't be the last - politician to fall into this trap. When asked to name the three candidates in the race to become leader of the Scottish Labour Party, he got two right - but couldn't remember the third.
Alas it was Ken Macintosh MSP, the candidate being tipped to win, that escaped the Labour leader's memory. Fortunately for him, Mr Macintosh took it well, and laughed off the incident saying it showed that politicians "are human".
A similar fate befell London Mayor Boris Johnson who failed to name the Conservative candidate in the 2014 Clacton by-election - but not before he'd had a good stab at it: "We've got a fantastic guy called... ow... err... (inaudible muttering)... he's a superb man. Stirling? Girling? Something like that."
Eventually admitting defeat, the London mayor had to ask LBC radio presenter to help him out. The candidate's name? Giles Watling, a former TV actor.
Most people would probably think it's a good idea as a party leader to be across the details of their policies. But the then UKIP leader Lord Pearson of Rannoch got himself into a spot of bother during a live TV interview in the run up to the 2010 general election.
Pressed over several of UKIP's policies, Lord Pearson told the BBC's Jon Sopel he had not come on his programme "to deal with the minutiae" of the manifesto. Rather, he wanted to stick to the "broad sweep" of the party's offerings.
It marked a rather difficult election campaign for the UKIP leader, whose resignation followed some months later, with the peer making a wonderfully frank declaration that he was "not much good" at party politics.
In recent years, every general election has been tipped to be the "social media election". Whether it becomes true this time remains to be seen. But what we can be almost sure of is that at least one parliamentary hopeful will mess up on Twitter. The social media platform has claimed many a political scalp in the past.
Most recently - and high profile - was Labour's shadow attorney general, Emily Thornberry, who had to resign from her post after a tweet she sent during last year's Rochester and Strood by-election.
Ms Thornberry had posted a picture of a terraced house with three England flags, and a white van parked outside which provoked a Twitter storm after being regarded by many as "snobby" and "offensive" - despite the MP's insistence it was entirely innocent.
David Burrowes, the Conservative MP for Enfield Southgate, came a cropper when he found himself accidentally canvassing in the neighbouring Labour constituency last month. The MP and his team were out and about knocking on doors - and only realised they were on MP Andy Love's turf after a conversation with his wife.
Turns out Mr Burrowes had taken a "wrong turning", as he put it, to Bush Hill Park in Enfield, north London - which is actually in Mr Love's Edmonton constituency.
Mr Burrowes laughed off his mistake, saying either "my canvassing enthusiasm or the distraction of my phone got the better of me", and apologised for "any confusion".
If you're a would-be MP and you're thinking about making a public declaration of affection for your party - be sure to think the plan through first, or you may end up needed to be rescued, like UKIP parliamentary candidate Sam Gould. During the party's spring conference in Margate, Gould took to the beach to write "We Love Nige" - in honour of the party's leader - in the sand. But unfortunately for Gould, he got stranded by the tide and had to be hoisted up a wall to drier land by UKIP's press secretary, Gawain Towler.
And who could forget Neil Kinnock's famous tumble into the sea on Brighton beach in 1983, when the Labour leadership election contest was underway. While the PR-stunt-gone-wrong didn't cost him the leadership of the party, Kinnock was ridiculed in the press and it has been replayed endlessly since. | With the 2015 general election campaign getting under way here's a look at the potential pitfalls politicians may wish to avoid over the next six weeks. |
What is the summary of the given information? | It aims to help over 600 women to enter politics over the next five years.
Mrs Cox, the MP for Batley and Spen, died after she was shot and stabbed in Birstall, West Yorkshire, in June.
Labour's general secretary Iain McNicol said it was a fitting memory to the mother-of-two who was a champion of international feminism.
The programme is a joint venture between the Labour Party and the Labour Women's Network.
It will train and mentor women to put themselves forward for being MPs, councillors, elected mayors and other positions within the party.
Labour MP Rachel Reeves told the BBC: "There were many causes that Jo was passionate about and one of them was about women in leadership and women in politics. She was the first chair of the Labour women's network.
"My friend Alison McGovern, MP in the Wirral, describes being supported by Jo was like having one arm wrapped around your shoulder and the other one pushing you forward and that's what Jo was like.
"She encouraged other women to go for parliamentary selections and put themselves forward."
The initiative comes after dozens of female Labour MPs wrote to party leader Jeremy Corbyn urging him to do more to tackle personal abuse during the leadership campaign.
Leadership rival Owen Smith also accused Mr Corbyn of not doing enough to clamp down on "intolerance and misogyny".
The Conservative Party, the SNP, DUP, Plaid Cymru, UKIP and Green Party are now all headed by women.
Ms Reeves said it had been "a difficult year" for many Labour women MPs but the scheme was to help "change what politics looks like".

Alexander Kokorin missed the best chance of a lifeless opening half, heading wide from six yards.
Substitute Kevin Mirallas hit a post with Belgium's first shot on target with six minutes remaining.
"On the balance of play, Belgium do not deserve it, but Marc Wilmots will say, 'We have six points from two games, we are growing into this tournament'. But they have been poor. They will not go far."
But Origi turned in from Eden Hazard's cross to take Marc Wilmots' team into the knock-out phase.
Russia's hopes of following them into the last 16 now hinge on their final group match against Algeria.
Fabio Capello's side were better than in their 1-1 draw with South Korea but still lacked a cutting edge and Belgium found a way to win despite an unconvincing display.
Origi, 19, impressed when he came off the bench in the opening 2-1 victory over Algeria and, once again, the Lille forward did well when he replaced Romelu Lukaku - who appeared far from happy with the decision - early in the second half.
They may have six points from two matches, but Belgium - who lost Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen to injury - will have to play far better to continue their progress.
All three of Belgium's goals have been scored by substitutes.
Another player do well coming on against Algeria, Dries Mertens was given a starting place and carried all of Belgium's threat down the right flank in the first half.
The Napoli winger had an effort blocked after a fine run and, following Kevin de Bruyne's surge forward, he attempted to feed Romelu Lukaku rather than shooting from a good position.
Mertens drove wide of goal after another impressive break but other than that Russia were barely troubled in a slow opening half.
They went close themselves when Viktor Fayzluin's low effort was pushed away by Thibaut Courtois, who also made a scrambling stop from Maksim Kanunikov.
Kokorin should have opened the scoring just before the interval but he glanced a header wide at the far post from Denis Glushakov's fine cross.
Glushakov thumped a wild effort off target from a narrow angle as the second half started at an even lower tempo with both sides appearing content with a draw.
Andrey Eschenko dragged an effort wide after a decent Russian move, then Everton winger Mirallas was denied by the foot of a post.
Hazard drove wide after breaking into the area but the Chelsea forward made a more decisive contribution in the 88th minute, breaking down the left flank and pulling back for Origi to score.
Belgium manager Marc Wilmots:
"[Origi] is in a good space right now. He's 19 years old. It was a bit of a surprise since he was an unknown before I selected him. Now everyone knows who he is.
"It was a hard game because the Russians were expecting us - the players were tired, it was hot, the Russians were already cramping up after 60 minutes.
"It was not an easy match but I think we deserved to win it."
Russia manager Fabio Capello:
"I am very happy with the performance the team and I thought the result was unfair.
"The truth of the matter is we had chances to win it but we lost. Both teams gave it their all and unfortunately it was Belgium that was able to make it.
"We have to look forward and I said when we came to play in this World Cup after being absent for 12 years that this will be a great help for us to understand the level we need to be at in future competitions." | A teenage girl has been released without charge after the remains of a newborn baby were found in a Kent street.

Summarize the passage below. | The ban came into effect after the court rejected an appeal by the religious group against a ruling in April which declared it to be extremist.
The justice ministry had argued that the group distributed pamphlets which incited hatred against other groups.
The group described the ruling as the end of religious freedom in Russia.
The denomination says it has 175,000 members in Russia - a country where it was persecuted during the Stalin era.
An estimated eight million people worldwide are part of the Christian-based movement, best known for going door-to-door looking for new converts.
The ruling means that the group's headquarters near St Petersburg and 395 local chapters will close.
It will be required to hand over all its properties, known as Kingdom Halls, to the Russian government.
The group's Russia spokesman, Yaroslav Sivulsky, said that "religious freedom in Russia is over".
"There were no real facts of any extremism on part of Jehovah's Witnesses. It's all about bad literature and intolerance. Now anyone who studies the Bible can be jailed," he said, quoted by Newsweek magazine.
One pamphlet distributed by the group quoted the novelist Leo Tolstoy as describing the doctrine of the Russian Orthodox Church as superstition and sorcery.
Officials have accused the religion of destroying families, propagating hatred and endangering lives. The Church had also joined calls for a ban.
The Jehovah's Witnesses group was founded in the United States in the 19th century.
They take most of the Bible literally and refuse blood transfusions. They are not seen by traditional Christian Churches as a mainstream denomination.
During Joseph Stalin's reign of terror in the Soviet Union it was outlawed and thousands of members were deported to Siberia. Other Christian groups were also persecuted.
As the Soviet Union collapsed, there was a revival of Christianity in Russia and the ban on Jehovah's Witnesses was lifted in 1991. But attitudes hardened again and in 2004 it was accused of recruiting children and preventing believers from accepting medical assistance.
Human rights group Sova has argued that an "official repressive campaign" has been conducted against the movement for years and many of their members have been physically attacked.

Summarize the following excerpt. | The official Sana news agency reported that troops had taken a reconstructed 13th Century castle perched on a hill to the west of the Roman-era ruins.
IS seized the Unesco World Heritage site and adjoining modern town in May.
It subsequently destroyed two 2,000-year-old temples, an arch and funerary towers, drawing global outrage.
The jihadist group, which has also demolished several pre-Islamic sites in neighbouring Iraq, believes that such structures are idolatrous.
Syrian state media and activists reported that there was heavy fighting between government forces, backed by Russian air strikes, and IS militants on the outskirts of Palmyra on Friday.
In the morning, troops took full control of the so-called SyriaTel Hill on the western edge before taking the nearby castle, known as Qalaat Shirkuh or Qalaat Ibn Maan, a military sources told Sana.
Pro-government Al-Mayadeen TV said the castle, which sits on a 150m-high hilltop overlooking the ruins, was of strategic importance.
Palmyra: Blowing ruins to rubble
Why IS destroys ancient sites
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also said the fighting had reached the edge of the ruins.
The UK-based monitoring group added that Syrian and Russian warplanes had struck at least 56 targets inside areas still controlled by IS.
The IS-linked Amaq news agency meanwhile published what it said was video footage from inside the modern town adjoining the ruins on Thursday. It included what appeared to be buildings damaged in fighting or air strikes.
Government forces briefly entered the town on Thursday but were pushed back.
The prospect of its liberation was welcomed by Unesco, the UN's cultural agency, which has described the destruction of Palmyra as a war crime.
"For one year, Palmyra has been a symbol of the cultural cleansing plaguing the Middle East," said its director-general Irina Bokova.
"The dynamiting and pillage of its treasures, to break an entire society, sparked a unanimous indignation and strengthened the unprecedented mobilisation in favour of the values that unite all humanity."
Ms Bokova said Unesco was ready to go to Palmyra as soon as security conditions allowed to evaluate the damage to the ruins and protect what remained.
Recapturing Palmyra would be a significant victory for the government and Russia, which withdrew most of its forces last week after a six-month air campaign against opponents of President Bashar al-Assad that turned the tide of the five-year civil war in his favour.
In addition to its ruins, Palmyra is situated in a strategically important area on the road between the capital, Damascus, and the contested eastern city of Deir al-Zour. | Syrian government forces are reportedly advancing further into Palmyra, battling Islamic State militants for control of the ancient city. |
Provide a brief summary of this section. | Michelle Carter, now 20, will serve 15 months of her term behind bars and five years of probation.
Carter was convicted in June of the involuntary manslaughter of Conrad Roy, who took his own life on 13 July 2014.
Mr Roy's father told Thursday's hearing: "My family is heartbroken. My son was my best friend."
What the texting suicide case tells us
Carter was allowed to remain free pending an appeal.
She had faced a maximum sentence of 20 years, but her legal team argued that both she and Mr Roy suffered from mental illness.
Dressed in red trousers and a cream blouse, Carter stood tearfully with hands clasped and eyes cast down as she was sentenced.
"Her actions killed Conrad Roy," the prosecutor told the court. "She ended his life to better her own."
"She has not accepted responsibility," she said. "She has shown no remorse."
But Carter's lawyer said it was a "horrible circumstance that she completely regrets".
However, Judge Lawrence Moniz said he did not find that her "age or level of maturity or even her mental illness have any significant impact on her actions".
A prosecutor read a statement from Mr Roy's mother, Lynn Roy, saying there was "not one day I do not mourn the loss of my beloved son".
Michelle Carter: What the texting suicide case tells us
"I want him to be proud of me and how I am handling everything - I am trying to be there for his sisters in all of my pain we will carry with us for eternity," it said.
Mr Roy's sister, Camdyn Roy, testified that she was "haunted" by the realisation that she would never attend her brother's wedding or be an aunt to his children.
"Not having that one person I've been with every day since birth is a pain I'll always keep with me for the rest of my life," she said.
The case appears to set a legal precedent, as there is no Massachusetts law that criminalises telling a person to commit suicide.
Carter was 17 when Mr Roy was found dead of carbon monoxide poisoning in a vehicle in 2014.
The case drew national attention after Carter's text messages revealed she had encouraged him to end his life.
"Hang yourself, jump off a building, stab yourself I don't know there's a lot of ways," she said in several messages sent in the two weeks before his death while he was on holiday with his family.
In the moments before his suicide, she wrote: "You need to do it, Conrad" and "All you have to do is turn the generator on and you will be free and happy."
Judge Moniz said Carter sought attention through Mr Roy's death, ordering that she not be allowed to profit from the case through any press.
The case has divided legal opinion. Among the few to defend Carter was Amanda Knox, who was convicted of murdering her British roommate in Italy in 2007 before she was cleared two years ago.
Ms Knox, 30, published an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times saying: "Michelle Carter deserves sympathy and help, not prison." | A Massachusetts woman has been sentenced to two and a half years for encouraging her boyfriend to commit suicide through texts and phone calls. |

"Supporters now have certainty that any money they spend on Rangers products will be hugely beneficial for the club," Rangers said on their website.
"The new deal will deliver real value for [Rangers] and SD."
The Ibrox club will now deal directly with the sports retailer, replacing the previous arrangement which was a joint venture between the club, a company called Rangers Retail Limited (RRL) and Sports Direct.
"The negotiations between the parties have been protracted and have not been smooth," the Rangers statement added.
"For obvious reasons it is not the practice for the details of commercial arrangements to be made public. However, in view of the publicity surrounding the previous agreements and the resultant boycott by supporters of kit purchases we consider it appropriate to give supporters some insight into the new arrangements.
"The new arrangements represent a fresh start for the Rangers Megastore, the re-launch of the Rangers Webstore and the sale of Rangers kit and products throughout SD's stores.
"[Rangers] will now receive by far the majority of net profits from the retail operations at the Megastore and Webstore together with an equal share of all net profits from sales through SD. [Rangers] will also obtain a priority dividend on the winding up of RRL.
"Both parties are delighted to achieve a successful resolution to the issues that have previously marred the relationship between them and bring an end to the protracted and costly litigation.
"Rangers has traditionally been one of the best performing brands in British football and the club believes the new arrangements can restore it to that position, providing funds to invest in the team and facilities at Ibrox and Auchenhowie."
Rangers chairman Dave King also revealed he and other shareholders - including Douglas Park, George Letham and George Taylor - have provided additional funding to the club in recent weeks in the form of interest-free loans.
King said the funding of this summer's transfer activity, with six players arriving so far and the signings of two Mexican internationals - Carlos Pena and Eduardo Herrera - expected to be confirmed soon, did not take into account the possibility of the retail deal being revised.
The chairman added the club has not received any notification of legal action being started by former manager Mark Warburton over his departure last season, and that the club did not expect there to be any. | Rangers have announced a new commercial deal with Sports Direct, which replaces the arrangement they had in place with Mike Ashley's company. |
Please provide a summary for the content below. | Turlough had lived at the park since 2011, and was described by staff as a "much loved" member of the family.
Bosses at the Warminster site had become "increasingly concerned" about his health over recent months.
The "fantastic" tiger had to be put to sleep following a degenerative spinal illness that had led to a progressive loss of his hind limb function.
Ryan Hockley, head of safari, said: "At 19 years and 4 months, Turlough was the oldest Amur tiger in the UK having lived at Longleat since 2011.
"Turlough was a much loved member of the Longleat family."
Jon Cracknell, director of operations, said the death was a "great loss" to Longleat.
"Turlough had settled in well here and we are sad to see him go," he added.
"We initially supported this condition with pain relief and palliative care, however as it became progressively worse and following extensive consultation with the veterinary team and internal ethical review, we made the decision to put Turlough to sleep on welfare grounds."
Mr Cracknell said the 19-year-old tiger, who arrived at Longleat from Dublin Zoo in 2011, "touched the hearts" of both visitors and staff.
The park's three other female tigers, who shared an enclosure with Tulough, are in good health but will be monitored to see how they react to his loss, Mr Cracknell added.
According to WWF, Amur tigers, also known as the Siberian tiger, were once found throughout the Russian Far East, northern China, and the Korean peninsula.
By the 1940s, hunting had driven the Amur tiger to the brink of extinction.
The population is now endangered, with around 400 tigers believed to be remaining.

Fry said: "My five years in the role have been an honour and a privilege beyond almost anything I can remember.
"I wish I could take credit for ushering the club up from League One to the Premiership during that time on the board. Actually, I'm going to. It was all me. It can't have been a coincidence.
"But now I'm so happy to relinquish my seat on the board to Thomas Smith and to engage as fully as I can in the role of ambassador for Norwich City. We have so much to be proud of, both on and off the pitch, and I hope to welcome many new fans to the greatest club of all. On the ball, City."
Club chairman Ed Balls said: "Stephen has made a really important contribution since he joined the board in 2010.
"His support for our commercial, retail and catering departments has helped to raise significant revenue for the football club - and the huge affection in which he is held by the public at home and abroad has definitely enabled him to help raise the profile of Norwich City."
Thomas Smith spent over a decade in the Civil Service in the UK and abroad, working in a variety of roles at the Ministry of Defence, the Cabinet Office and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

Write a summary for the following excerpt. | That's not surprising. Complicated and controversial, cannabis is revealed by recent science to have a dual personality, with a dark side and a more positive one. Radio 4's PM programme is this week running a whole series on cannabis, and the debate surrounding it.
Key to understanding this strange plant are two of the ingredients that make it up, known by their initials as THC and CBD.
I asked Prof Val Curran of University College London to describe how they work and she came up with a memorable answer:
"In a way, THC and CBD are a bit like yin and yang. The THC makes you stoned, but it can also make you anxious. It can also make you feel a bit psychotic, and it will seriously impair your memory.
"The other side of the yin/yang is CBD, which has almost the opposite effects. CBD calms you down, it has anti-psychotic properties and it also offsets the effects on memory, so that on CBD-containing cannabis you're less likely to forget what's going on."
So the first step to understanding cannabis is to realise how it can vary, how different types contain very different quantities of these polar opposites, with dramatically different outcomes.
The weed so familiar to many of my generation was characterised by a relatively balanced amount of THC and CBD.
Today, the vast majority of cannabis on sale on the streets is unrecognisably stronger.
Known as skunk, it contains a far higher proportion of THC - as much as 15% - which produces a much more powerful high, making it more appealing for users.
But, at the same time, because it hardly contains any of the CBD that might lessen its effects, the risks are correspondingly greater.
Prof Curran is among those worried about its potency.
"What concerns me is that on this high-THC skunk, people will experience more memory problems, which could affect how well they do at school. And in terms of addiction, 10% of people who use it will become addicted to the drug."
According to a study by two researchers at UCL, Dr Tom Freeman and Dr Adam Winstock, the strongest cannabis increases the risk of addiction, along with memory loss and paranoia.
And in a trial to explore ways of helping addicts, they are giving drug users medication based on cannabis itself. The hope is that administering doses of CBD, the more benign ingredient of cannabis, might make it easier for habitual users to wean themselves off the lure of the more potent element, THC.
Dr Freeman told the BBC: "We think that CBD can reverse long-term changes which happen when you smoke cannabis repeatedly, and in people who smoke a lot of cannabis it'll help them quit.
"It blocks the effects of THC and it reduces anxiety and paranoia. If this trial is successful, then we will have found the first effective drug treatment for cannabis dependence."
Meanwhile, new evidence has surfaced that will stir the long-running debate over whether - or to what extent - cannabis can trigger psychosis.
New research published this week in the Lancet Psychiatry suggests a connection, a finding which is most relevant to people already vulnerable to mental illness.
The study, conducted in south London, involved some 800 people - about half of them users, the rest not.
One of the authors, Prof Sir Robin Murray of King's College London, says it's clear that regular use of highly potent skunk has a real impact.
"We found that smoking cannabis, particularly of the high-potency forms, was associated with an increased risk.
"If you smoke high-potency skunk at all, then you are three times more likely to be psychotic. If you smoke high-potency cannabis every day, you are five times more likely to be psychotic."
And at this point we come back to that yin and yang of cannabis. While this new research finds that the strongest cannabis, laden with THC, can be linked to psychosis, it turns out that the gentler twin, CBD, might possibly be useful in treating it.
Prof Murray, though cautious, highlights recent studies.
"If you give THC to normal volunteers, you can make them psychotic, but if you pre-treat them with CBD, you can prevent that happening.
"So this made us think - would it be possible to actually treat psychosis with CBD? So there's one encouraging study, which suggests that CBD is useful in the treatment of psychosis, but it's still very early days yet."
So running in parallel with concerns about cannabis is another world of optimism about its uses.
In Colorado, there is much excitement about a medication called Charlotte's Web, derived from cannabis and named after a girl who took it as a treatment for her epilepsy.
Such is the potential of what's seen as a wonder drug that the Mattison family sold up their business in Tennessee and moved to Colorado purely so that their daughter Millie, who's two years old and epileptic, could receive Charlotte's Web.
Her seizures, soon after birth, were so severe that she had been given very little chance of surviving.
But her mother Nicole told me that the drug proved immediately beneficial, transforming Millie's life almost at a stroke.
"It's miraculous. The first time we gave her oil, within 15 minutes her eyes were open, and I almost felt like I was in a movie.
"It was crazy, you wouldn't believe it unless you saw it."
Here in the UK, the only legal medicine derived from cannabis is for sufferers of multiple sclerosis (MS), a product called Sativex made by GW Pharma.
But now the company, the only one with a licence to grow cannabis in the UK, has developed another formulation which is being tested to treat epileptic conditions like Millie's.
The trial, with 80 patients, is now in its second stage and is being run by the University of Edinburgh.
The scientist in charge of the process, Dr Richard Chin, says that so far the results look promising, not just to control seizures but - remarkably - to prevent them as well.
"One of the interesting things about cannabidiol (CBD) is that it shows not just anti-seizure effects, but it also curiously seems to have an effect on cognitive and behavioural problems, which are very highly represented in people with epilepsy.
"So it doesn't seem, on preliminary data, as if it's just an anti-seizure medication. It may actually be an anti-epilepsy medication in its wider sense, and what I would hope is that it may open up a completely new avenue of treatment options for patients with epilepsy."
For thousands of years cannabis was used medically. But only now is research revealing why that's possible and how it can be put to best use.
These are relatively early days but, on the horizon, researchers see potential for the CBD in cannabis to help with everything from easing the pain of cancer to tackling autism.
At the same time, science is also unpicking the full implications of the potent stuff being dealt on our streets.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | The slower gains mark a break from a 12-month streak where employers added over 200,000 jobs each month.
Severe winter weather, factory slowdowns, and dull construction activity contributed to the lacklustre numbers.
The US unemployment rate held at 5.5%, the US Department of Labor said.
"A range of factors including the weather and the global economic slowdown have affected economic data for the first quarter," said Jason Furman, Chairman of the White House's Council of Economic Advisers.
Additionally, the job statistics for January and February were revised down by a combined 69,000 jobs.
Factories shed 1,000 jobs after 19-months of hiring, while the construction industry broke a 15-month streak with same number of losses.
Restaurant hiring took a sharp downward turn, while the sector for mining, logging, and oil drilling lost 11,000 jobs.
Wage growth was unexceptional. Average hourly wages rose just $0.07 (£0.05) - a year-over-year rise of 2.1%.
People in the US worked fewer hours on average in March than they did in February, meaning their actual earnings fell.
Many Americans are out of the labour force, due in part to the large number of so-called "baby boomers" who are reaching retirement age.
In March, only 62.7% of Americans were working or looking for work - a figured tied with the lowest rate since 1978.
Cheaper gasoline and past job growth have not yet boosted consumer spending, and modest wage gains have burdened the US economy since the Great Recession ended nearly six years ago. | Employers in the United States added 126,000 jobs in March - a gain far lower than previous months. |
Can you provide a summary of this content? | The Ambulance Service has said the move is a result of a review of riot situations.
John McPoland from the Ambulance Service said paramedics are often in situations that put them at risk.
"We need to continually review our operational procedures and this is just one step to try and protect our staff as best as we possibly can," he said.
"The uniform that our guys wear normally out on the road, it had a protective hat and a reflective coat.
"But in a riot situation and with the number of petrol bombs that have been thrown about the place, we felt that we could offer them better protection, by providing them with police riot gear and paramedics quite clearly displayed on it."
Anglo said it would cut 6,000 posts from office and other roles not directly related to production.
The company, which has some 150,000 workers worldwide, said employee numbers would fall by 35% after the cuts, which will be accompanied by asset sales.
Anglo posted a pre-tax loss of $1.9bn (£1.2bn) for the six months to 30 June.
The miner has been hit by multibillion-dollar write downs on the values of its assets following commodity price falls.
Iron ore was down 41%, platinum has fallen 19%, and copper is 18% lower.
Chief executive Mark Cutifani told analysts: "Quite frankly we didn't expect the commodity price rout to be so dramatic and in all likelihood the next six months are going to be even tougher. We have pulled costs out of the business but we need to do more because prices continue to deteriorate."
Most of Anglo's workforce is in South America and South Africa, with just 2,000 in Europe.
Profits from its De Beers diamond mining business fell by $189m to $576m.
Shares closed up 0.2% at 808.1p, valuing the company at £11.3bn. The stock is half the value of a year ago.
Meanwhile, Lonmin said it would cut 6,000 jobs as the fall in the platinum price forced it to scale back operations in South Africa.
In a quarterly production statement the miner warned it was heading for an annual loss at current platinum prices.
The price of platinum has fallen by 14.4% from $1,126 an ounce in March to $964 on Wednesday.
Shares plunged 17.4% to 62.3p, valuing the company at £366m. The stock traded at more than £10 a decade ago.
Lonmin said it would mothball several platinum mines to cut costs, which would create a "smaller more sustainable and agile business".
The miner added it expected normal platinum production over the next two financial years to fall by 100,000 ounces.
"Our objective is to save the majority of the positions in the company and create a sustainable business by taking urgent action and maximising liquidity to protect the business.
"All costs, not just labour costs, have to be reduced and productivity improved if the business is to be sustainable," Lonmin added.
The miner added it was reviewing the capital structure for the company given the "new pricing environment" and was considering the whether to refinance its debt.
Platinum sales for the quarter were 231,778 ounces. That was in line with refined production expectations and compared with sales of 206,039 ounces for the same period a year earlier.
But Lonmin said despite the increase in production the weaker price of the precious metal and the weakness of the South African rand had continued to hurt profits.
The platinum US dollar price decreased by 23.2% the same period a year earlier.
South Africa's National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) said on Friday it was shocked by the decision to cut so many jobs.
"As the NUM, we are going to fight against any job losses. It is very painful to see that these mining companies take the decisions of cutting jobs easy," the union said.
The mine closures come three years after 34 people were killed after police opened fire on striking Lonmin miners in what has become known in the country as the "Marikana massacre".
The Lonmin-owned platinum mine became the centre of a violent clashes between police and strikers following a pay dispute with Lonmin that was exacerbated by tensions between two rival trade unions. | Paramedics in Northern Ireland are to wear full PSNI riot gear when called to disturbances.

Members of parliament engaged in heated debate on Thursday, with the opposition saying the law would infringe basic human rights.
They and human rights groups have said they will stage protests if the bill is not amended to be less draconian.
Somali militant group al-Shabab has attacked Kenya several times recently.
The proposed law gives the president and spy agencies a range of new powers, which opposition MPs have criticised.
One MP, Fred Outa, had to be wrestled to the ground in the National Assembly when he tried to stop the vote by seizing the mace - a symbol of parliamentary authority.
President Uhuru Kenyatta has defended the bill, saying it is important for the country's security needs.
"No freedoms are being curtailed unless you are a terrorist yourself," he said in a speech on Friday.
"No part of our constitution has been violated."
The BBC's Wanyama wa Chebusiri in Nairobi says there were calls on both sides of parliament for some of the bill's most controversial elements to be amended.
These included
The bill will now be passed to a parliamentary committee for amendment, before being sent to President Kenyatta to be signed into law.
Our correspondent says the committee is likely to make some amendments, given the cross-party support for this.
President Kenyatta has said he wants the bill to become law as soon as possible.
The other main elements of the proposed law include giving the president the right to hire and fire security chiefs, giving the intelligence agencies the right to arrest terror suspects and a stipulation that people found with weapons in places of worship face punishment of 20 years in jail.
It is also proposed that journalists should face jail if their reporting is judged to jeopardise prosecution of terror suspects.
Members of the parliamentary majority said the law would help police and politicians tackle security problems in Kenya.
But opposition MP Ababu Namwamba was quoted by the Daily Nation newspaper as saying: "This law is draconian, it is retrogressive, it is unconstitutional, it entrenches impunity.
"We are today mourning the death of the constitution."
Another MP, Eseli Simiyu, said: "The problem is not about lack of laws in this country. The problem is the lack of implementation of the existing laws."
Earlier this month, President Kenyatta promised to take urgent action on security, replacing his interior minister and police chief following a massacre by Somalia-based Islamist group al-Shabab.
The militants had killed 36 quarry workers in Mandera, in north-east Kenya, near the Somali border.
Non-Muslim workers were shot dead after being separated from Muslims.

Can you write a short summary of this section? | Soldier Arthur Mulligan is believed to have lived at 9 Utility Street, off Donegall Road in south Belfast.
Two bibles containing photos of him, other soldiers and a number of delicate items have been given to Jason Burke, a researcher from the community project, East Belfast and the Great War, in the hopes of reuniting them with their rightful owners.
Mr Burke said he had been given a "treasure trove of information" and told BBC News NI how the 100-year-old items came into his possession.
"I was actually only given them last Friday, by an elderly man who had contacted me," he said.
"He wasn't sure how they came to be in his possession, but said he found them in his house and was just going to throw them in the bin, as he was getting on a bit and had no use for them."
Jason said the man did not believe they belonged to his family because they did not share the same surname, but that he hoped that Jason could help to work out who they actually belonged to.
When Jason opened the bibles, he found a number of small tokens inside them, including a couple of pictures of Arthur Mulligan, newspaper clippings, photos of other WW1 soldiers, and even more unusually, a peacock feather and a dried flower.
"I'm not sure how long these items have been in the bibles, but certainly it makes the mystery a little bit more intriguing," Jason said.
He said the bibles, which contain lots of different handwritten notes and dates, are just a small window into life as a soldier during the war.
"I think the bibles may belong to Mulligan, but the other photos of soldiers could have been his friends, who I'm trying to find out more about as well," Jason said.
He added that a number of people have already contacted him with information about Mulligan families who may have lived in the same street in Belfast many years ago.
Jason said the bibles contain plenty of interesting clues to work with, and he is hopeful that someone will eventually come forward to claim them.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | The 90-year-old previously won an Oscar for Lawrence of Arabia in 1963.
She was hailed as "a trailblazer" by Nicole Kidman at the Governors Awards, the Academy's dedicated ceremony for honorary awards.
Her career has spanned the 1952 adaptation of Charles Dickens' The Pickwick Papers and last year's Fifty Shades of Grey.
Accepting the award, Coates said: "Can you imagine a job where you're actually paid to look into the eyes of George Clooney, Peter O'Toole, Richard Burton, Peter Finch, Sean Connery, Albert Finney, Clint Eastwood, Richard Gere, Daniel Craig, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Fifty Shades Of Grey himself Jamie Dornan?"
Stars paid tribute to Coates at the ceremony, including Richard Gere, who appeared in the 2002 film Unfaithful, which she edited.
He hailed her as "one of the great giants of our industry" and "the greatest of the great, great, great film editors".
Australian star Kidman said: "Anne V. Coates is not a great female editor, she is a great, great editor. She's not trailblazer for women, she's a trailblazer for all of us.
"Anne has left her mark on some of the greatest films of all time."
Born in Reigate in Surrey in 1925, Coates has continued to work up until last year, when she edited the film adaptation of EL James's racy international bestseller, Fifty Shades of Grey.
She told the LA Times last week that she had tried to make the film more raunchy.
"They were worried they wouldn't get the R rating. I would have had her trussed up like a suitcase and hoisted to the ceiling," she said.
Also honoured at the ceremony on Saturday night were the documentary film maker Frederick Wiseman, casting director Lynn Stalmaster and the martial arts star Jackie Chan.
Chan made his film debut at the age of eight, before starring in more than 30 films in Hong Kong.
He achieved worldwide fame after Rumble in the Bronx in 1995, going on to star in Hollywood films including the Rush Hour trilogy, Shanghai Noon and The Karate Kid in 2010.
"It's a dream," Chan said on stage. "Friends, fans around the world, because of you I have a reason to continue making movies, jumping out windows, kicking and punching and breaking my bones."
The Governors Awards, which were attended by stars such as Sylvester Stallone, Don Cheadle and Helen Mirren, were launched in 2009 to provide more time to celebrate honorary awards than the televised Oscar ceremony in February allows.
They are intended to recognise lifetime achievement, exceptional contributions to cinema and outstanding service to the Academy.
The International Development Committee (IDC) said the money would help some of Africa's "most vulnerable" people.
The cash will be split evenly between Action Aid - who are working with refugees from Burundi - and Medair, who are working in South Sudan.
Both charities will use the money to offer water, healthcare and emergency shelters.
The ongoing constitutional crisis in Burundi, where there is violent conflict between supporters of the government and opposition, has resulted in thousands of people seeking refuge in neighbouring countries.
South Sudan gained independence from Sudan in July 2011 and, according to the IDC, continues to be "besieged by conflict".
IDC Chairman Phil Gawne said: "Through these donations the Isle of Man is helping to provide vital assistance to a large number of vulnerable displaced people in areas overwhelmed by conflict."

Joe McKinney hit both Ards goals while PSNI beat Albert Foundry 3-0.
Extra-time goals from David Cushley and Brandon Doyle helped Crusaders see off Glentoran 2-1 at the Oval.
At Windsor Park, Cliftonville defender Caoimhin Bonner blocked early efforts by Mark Haughey and Waterworth but it was a contest of few openings before hesitation by Tomas Cosgrove allowed Clarke to strike the Blues ahead on 41 minutes.
A misdirected ball across his own penalty area by Aaron Donnelly gifted Gaynor Linfield's second goal on 61 and Waterworth headed the third with 10 minutes left as Cliftonville posed little threat.
A bad night for the Reds was topped off by Bonner's sending off as he picked up a second yellow card for a late challenge on Waterworth.
After their 5-0 Premiership hammering by Glenavon on Saturday, holders Ballymena suffered another disappointment as McKinney's two goals sealed a deserved success for Ards at the Showgrounds.
McKinney had already tested home keeper Ross Glendinning early on before firing the north Down club ahead in the 28th minute.
As Ballymena rarely threatened, a mix-up between keeper Glendinning and Caolan Loughran allowed McKinney to double the lead after the break and Ards held on despite Allan Jenkins' 89th-minute reply.
Glentoran had the bulk of the chances in normal time against a largely second-string Crues with Alex Leu missing their best opportunity in the first half as he failed to beat Michael Dougherty from close range after being set up by Nacho Novo.
Ex-Ballymena man Cushley half-volleyed Crusaders ahead in the fourth minute of extra-time and after Glentoran's Ciaran Caldwell hit the underside of the crossbar, Brandon Doyle struck the visitors' second goal after being set up by Cushley.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Sara Dallin, Siobhan Fahey and Keren Woodward were the biggest girl band of the 80s, scoring hits including Venus, Shy Boy and Love In The First Degree.
Although they scored 10 top 10 hits, the trio never toured before Fahey quit to form Shakespears Sister in 1988.
The split was acrimonious, but the members recently reconciled and have announced a 15-date UK tour for winter.
"This is the first time we've performed live together - with the exception of getting onstage with a cassette when we were 18!" Woodward told BBC Radio 2's Chris Evans Breakfast Show.
Speaking about their reconciliation, Fahey said: "I was really touched because it wasn't for any other reason than we love each other and really loved what we did.
"These were my formative years. I never thought it would happen again."
The band's website crashed shortly after the tour was announced on Monday morning.
Formed in 1979, the band took their name from two of their biggest inspirations: the Roxy Music song Pyjamarama and kids TV show The Banana Splits.
They got their first taste of chart success by providing backing vocals for the Fun Boy Three on the single It Ain't What You Do, It's the Way You Do It.
A couple of months later, Fun Boy Three returned the favour for Really Sayin' Somethin, a cover of the 1965 Velvelettes song that was the first of Bananarama's 26 UK chart smashes.
They went on to sell more than 40 million records, with their biggest-sellers including Robert De Niro's Waiting, Cruel Summer and I Heard A Rumour.
After establishing themselves as a self-made band, they hitched their wagon to Stock Aitken Waterman's "hit factory" for the 1987 album, Wow.
Fahey, who was a huge fan of The Smiths, was not keen on the group's new direction and, after marrying Eurythmics star Dave Stewart and moving to LA, she left the band.
Dallin and Woodward found a replacement, Jacquie O'Sullivan, who re-recorded some of Fahey's vocals, and the band played their first ever live shows.
O'Sullivan lasted three years, since when the band has continued as a duo, recording new material while touring the nostalgia circuit.
"The worst thing was that, after Siobhan left, Sara and I then did the world tour without her," Woodward told Chris Evans.
"We had tried to do it while we were together all as a threesome, then I got pregnant while we were rehearsing.
"And Siobhan got pregnant the second time we were planning on going on the road, so for some reason it never happened."
The UK tour kicks off at Glasgow's SEC on 12 November, with tickets on sale today for fan club members, and Wednesday for the general public.
According to a press release, it will be a one-off - but Woodward hinted there may be other plans afoot.
"The tour is the main thing," she said. "But we have talked about doing a single together, which would be good."

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | It follows news that the plant's chief Stuart Wilkie is set to launch a management buyout of the company's UK operations.
He spoke with First Minister Carwyn Jones on Wednesday about the plan, which will require support from UK and Welsh governments.
Tata, which is selling its entire loss-making UK business, would not be drawn on the identity of those approached.
"We are trying to find a responsible buyer. We don't want the process to last forever - our main aim is to find the right buyer," said a spokesman
Mr Wilkie was one of the main people behind a survival plan in January that was rejected by the Tata board in India and the UK business was put up for sale.
He has years of experience with Tata and at Corus before that.
The Scot has been a senior manager in various parts of the business, including at Ebbw Vale before its closure in 2002. He has worked at Llanwern and Trostre and was a director at Cogent Power in Newport.
He is the currently director of Tata Steel strip products UK, which works across Port Talbot and Llawern plants.
Wednesday marks the deadline for expressions of interest - the first stage in the sales process which got under way last week - and Tata will start to whittle down who are the credible buyers.

Prime Minister David Cameron said the UK Government would do "everything we can" to help the company and was prepared to support the sales process.
UK Business Minister Anna Soubry said keeping the blast furnaces at Port Talbot open was going to be difficult but "that's really what should be at the very heart of any future for Tata Steel in the UK".
The Community union said: "It is clear that significant interest in the business exists from a number of different potential buyers.
"This is a sign that a long-term, profitable future for the industry is entirely possible."
Tata Steel directly employs 15,000 workers in the UK and supports thousands of others, across plants in Port Talbot, Rotherham, Corby and Shotton.
Steel company Liberty House, owned by Sanjeev Gupta, has publicly expressed an interest in buying the Port Talbot works, which employs more than 4,000.
The steel crisis has been driven by falling prices and a global oversupply.
In the UK, high energy costs and cheaper Chinese imports have exacerbated the issue.
Dr Kath Ringwald, a steel industry analyst, said there were "enormous difficulties ahead" but the buyout would be welcomed by everyone.
She told BBC Radio Wales: "It is a very different plan; for example the Liberty plan is talking about no redundancies.
"Whether or not this plan could succeed on the same basis we don't know but it is a very difficult time in market conditions to be tabling an ambitious plan for re-investment." | Tata has "reached out" to 190 potential bidders for its giant Port Talbot site. |

Protesters marched from Gobowen to the Oswestry unit. Liz Grayston, who organised the march, estimated 300 people showed their support.
She said the extra pressure on other maternity units in the county was already showing and mothers were being sent home within 24 hours of a Caesarean section.
"We're not taking this lying down," she added.
Ellie Jones, from Oswestry, gave birth to twins following an emergency Caesarean at the Telford unit.
She was transferred to the Oswestry unit four days after the birth, but said she was sent home after two nights due to a staff shortage.
"I was not ready to be discharged. I am a new young mum recovering from major abdominal surgery with not one, but two, new babies to look after.
"They didn't even have the staff to come visit me at home," she said.
Ms Jones said the town's maternity unit should remain open as the Telford unit is a 50-minute drive away.
"A lot can happen in 50 minutes when you're in labour. For people that don't have the transport, it's really hard to get there," she added.
The Trust said long-term staff sickness and a fall in the number of midwives willing to cover for colleagues had made it difficult to staff all six of its maternity units at all times.
Deirdre Fowler, Director of Nursing, Midwifery and Quality at the Trust, said closures had been a "difficult decision" and it was working on long-term sustainable options. | Campaigners have gathered to protest the closure of three rural maternity units across Shropshire. |

Liz Saville Roberts says young recruits are more vulnerable to mental health illness, suicide and death or injury than adult recruits.
The Ministry of Defence has no plans to raise the age, arguing enlistment could be beneficial for youngsters.
The Plaid Cymru MP is due to lead a Westminster Hall debate on the topic.
She said: "The outcomes, the future that happens to the young people who are recruited into the army in the United Kingdom, they are not good prospects.
"It concerns me that this country still recruits people under the age of 18 when, in all honesty, we are the only country in the EU, in Europe, that does so."
Ms Saville Roberts, who represents Dwyfor Meirionydd, refers to a report released by the medical charity Medact which found child recruits were more prone to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), alcohol abuse, self-harm, suicide, and death or injury during their career when compared to adult recruits.
The report also found child recruits were more likely to end up on the frontline, and that practices for recruiting children did not meet the criteria for full and informed consent.
Rhianna Louise from Forces Watch, which campaigns for raising the recruitment age limit, was involved in writing the Medact report.
She told BBC Radio Wales' Good Morning Wales: "Some people who are young recruits do enjoy their army career and it works well for them.
"But there are other people who were recruited as children who are campaigning for the recruitment age to be raised.
"Overall, people who were recruited as children face greater risks than adults.
"People talk about the army and armed forces rescuing young people who come from a certain background but, actually, if you have an experience of childhood adversity in your background, that's actually a pre-service vulnerability which means you are more likely to suffer from long-term mental health risks such as PTSD and self-harm."
James Wharton, 30, joined the Army as a 16-year-old following a number of years in the army cadet force in Wrexham, where he undertook Duke of Edinburgh awards and learned "self-discipline".
He said: "It took me off the streets of north Wales."
After 18 months of training in north Yorkshire, he was posted to London to carry out duties for the Royal Family.
"It was a wonderful journey and experience to go from a council estate in the north of Wales to riding a horse down the Mall next to Her Majesty the Queen.
"It's all I ever wanted to do."
Mr Wharton said his army experience had set him up for later life.
In a statement, the Ministry of Defence said: "The armed forces offer young people opportunities that aren't available elsewhere, from basic literacy education and support for postgraduate degrees, to high quality accredited training and unique employment prospects.
"Like everyone who serves our country, under 18s - who can only sign up with formal written consent of a parent or guardian - are fully supported throughout their service career."

Summarize the provided information. | John Downey, 62, from County Donegal, Irish Republic, is accused of killing Roy Bright, Dennis Daly, Simon Tipper and Geoffrey Young.
The Household Cavalry members were killed as they rode from their barracks in Knightsbridge.
Mr Downey also denied intending to cause an explosion likely to endanger life.
The bomb that Mr Downey is charged with planting was the first of two that caused carnage in London on 20 July 1982.
In the first incident, a nail bomb in a blue Austin car was detonated as the Household Cavalry members made their way through the park to the Changing of the Guard parade.
As well as the four men, seven horses were killed and a number of police officers and civilians were injured.
In the second explosion, less than two hours later, seven Royal Green Jackets bandsmen in a Regent's Park bandstand were killed.
Mr Downey, who was arrested at Gatwick Airport last May, entered the pleas at the Old Bailey. He remains on conditional bail.

Hundreds of car enthusiasts have been at Bromyard's Festival of Speed which organisers said is to celebrate the area's motoring history.
The chairmen of the Austin, Bean and Morgan all lived locally and parts for Morgan three wheelers were made there.
The vehicles have paraded through the town and also on display.
Mr Campbell first gained the world speed record in 1924 for travelling at more than 140 mph in a Sunbeam he called Bluebird.
The vehicle has also taken part in the parade, alongside about 120 other vintage and historic cars.
Organisers said the town and its immediate locality has been linked to the British motor industry since the birth of the motor car.
"Automotive engineering was first started in Bromyard by the Pettifer family, who manufactured chassis components for the iconic Morgan Three Wheeler in 1910, prior to the building of the Malvern factories.
"For this, our first year, Morgan who are proud to be the UK's last privately owned motor manufacturer, will be the featured company in line with their special association with Bromyard."
The car maker was founded by HFS Morgan in 1909.
It began producing three wheeler cars in 1910, but the firm's reputation is based on hand-built small sports cars. | A man has denied murdering four British soldiers in an IRA bomb attack in London's Hyde Park in July 1982.

What is the summary of the document provided? | The Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) aims to stimulate commerce by reducing barriers such as tariffs and differences in regulation.
Critics say the agenda is driven by international business and will be bad for European and American citizens.
It is a little over a year since the talks were launched at a G8 summit.
It was the UK Prime Minister David Cameron, US President Obama and top EU officials, who set the ball rolling at the summit at Lough Erne in Northern Ireland.
At the time, Mr Cameron said there was no more powerful way to drive economic growth and prosperity than by boosting trade.
The agenda for doing that includes the standard stuff of trade liberalisation - reducing or even eliminating tariffs, taxes that are applied only to imported goods.
The negotiators are also trying to reduce the barriers to trade that arise from different sets of regulations.
They can impede trade because it's more expensive for business to export if it has to go through all the hoops involved in complying with two lots of rules and standards.
Campaigners fear that could lead to lower levels of consumer and environmental protection.
The talks are also covering how governments treat foreign investment.
One of the most controversial elements is the idea of allowing investors to take governments to international tribunals to seek compensation if they think those rules have been broken.
Campaigners say this could make governments reluctant to regulate in the public interest if they think a foreign investor could be affected.
The concerns about these provisions led the European Commission to conduct a public consultation which has just closed.
British critics of TTIP are particularly concerned that the National Health Service (NHS) could be affected if a future government wanted to reverse any decisions to contract out services to private sector businesses.
That was one of the issues for protesters opposing TTIP who took to the streets across the UK on Saturday ahead of the Brussels talks.
Organisers say that more than a thousand protesters involved in an event in London occupied the square where the European Union has its UK office.
According to the World Development Movement there were other demos in Cambridge, Manchester, York, Newcastle, Nottingham, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Brighton, Bradford, Bexhill, Derby, Cardiff, Sheffield, Swindon, Norwich, Reading, Birmingham and Dublin.
The union Unite wants the NHS specifically exempted from any TTIP agreement.
The European Commission says the specific fears about possible constraints on future NHS policies are misplaced.
This week of talks in Brussels will be the sixth occasion when the two sides have sat down for detailed official negotiations.
There is no formal timetable for concluding the exercise, but the two sides would probably like to get it all done while the Obama administration is in power in Washington.
In practice that means getting the substance of an agreement done by early 2016. For such complex and contentious stuff that's a substantial challenge.

The body of Norma Bell, 79, was found in her burned-out home in Westbourne Road, Hartlepool in April.
Teesside Crown Court heard Gareth Dack, 33, set several fires and turned on a gas hob in the hope a resulting explosion would cover his tracks.
Mr Dack, of Windermere Road in the town, has denied murder and arson.
The court was told Mr Dack used electrical cable to strangle Mrs Bell, a widow, and then used her phone to call sex chat lines.
Christopher Tehrani QC, prosecuting, said the accused then started a number of fires and left the gas hob on in the kitchen, but the fumes did not ignite.
He added: "When he decided to leave the premise one final time, we suggest he decided to cover his tracks by setting fire to the house.
"For good measure he turned the gas on at the hob, no doubt hoping the gas would ignite and cause an explosion destroying any scientific evidence that he believed he may have left behind.
"Fortunately, the gas did not collect to the point it became combustible."
The jury heard Mr Dack told police that his DNA was in the property because he had "done some work for Norma".
The court was told Mrs Bell and her husband fostered more than 50 babies and toddlers during a 35-year period and had three children of their own.

But Booth was pleased with how the Scottish champions applied themselves against their English opponents.
"I'm proud of my team," said Booth," I think they've done great."
And the former Scotland and Aberdeen striker added: "Each year, in the Champions League, we come across teams like that. Last season it was PSG that put Glasgow City out. This season it's Chelsea.
"They want to go and play against these teams - some of the best teams in Europe.
"Sometimes you can get through and you can make it work, other times it's a little bit difficult because you're fighting against a massive gulf in finance and resources.
"We were totally committed again, over the two legs. I'm not disappointed in my team one bit. We did very, very well and I'm still proud of them.
"They commit everything to this club and that gives me loads of energy to keep going for them."
Booth felt pace in particular gave Chelsea the edge at Airdrieonians' Excelsior Stadium.
"We don't lack anything in belief and the way that they give you absolutely anything but, at times, just that little bit of pace," he explained.
"Even defensively, they've got quick players. I think that, at times, has been the difference.
"Once they got the goal, it sort of changed things for us. We had to really gamble. We knew by doing that, we'd concede space centrally and on the wings. We were happy to go and try it but, at the end of the day, they just had too much for us."
With Booth having taken over from Eddie Wolecki Black in July, this was his first Champions League campaign as City boss.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Justice Lowell Goddard was speaking as she opened the independent inquiry, which she said could last until 2020.
It will examine how public bodies handled their duty of care to protect children from abuse.
Justice Goddard said there were suggestions that one child out of every 20 in the UK had been sexually abused.
She said many who are sexually abused as a child do not tell adults - and that if they do "their reports may go unheeded".
There may also have been systematic under-recording and mis-recording of child sex abuse by the police and other agencies, she added, meaning that "the true picture may be even worse than the current figures indicate".
Speaking about the scale of the problem, she said: "The need for accurate recording is one of the issues that the inquiry will have to confront."
The inquiry was first announced by Home Secretary Theresa May in July 2014.
It followed claims of a high-level cover-up of historical child sex abuse involving public figures, including politicians.
The New Zealand High Court judge, who led an inquiry into police handling of child abuse cases in her own country, was the third person named to chair the inquiry - her two predecessors resigned over concerns about their links with the establishment.
In her opening remarks, she said the task ahead was daunting, but that it could expose past failures of institutions to defend children.
Justice Goddard said the sexual abuse of children "has left permanent scars not only on successive generations, has left permanent scars not only on victims themselves, but on society as a whole".
But she added: "This inquiry provides a unique opportunity to expose past failures of institutions to protect children, to confront those responsible, to uncover systemic failures... and to make recommendations that will help prevent the sexual abuse and exploitation of children in the future."
Justice Goddard also said it was important to emphasise that this was the largest and most ambitious public inquiry ever established in England and Wales.
Despite the size of the investigation, she was "determined to ensure that it does not become bogged down in the delays that have bedevilled some other public inquiries in this jurisdiction".
In July last year, Labour MP Simon Danczuk called on Leon Brittan to say what he knew about paedophile allegations passed to him when he was home secretary in the 1980s.
The files were given to Lord Brittan, who died in January, by the late Conservative MP Geoffrey Dickens, a long-standing campaigner against child abuse.
Mr Dickens's son has said the files - now missing - contained "explosive" paedophile allegations about powerful and famous figures, including politicians.
Since Mr Danczuk's comments brought the so-called "Dickens dossier" to the fore, the focus has moved to the wider issue of how historical child sex abuse allegations were dealt with by public bodies and other institutions across the country.
Previously there had been calls for an overarching investigation into historical abuse claims in the wake of revelations that TV entertainer Jimmy Savile abused hundreds of victims at hospitals, children's homes and schools.
Read more on the "Dickens dossier" and other ongoing inquiries
The inquiry, which was given statutory powers and a new panel in February, will investigate whether "public bodies and other non-state institutions have taken seriously their duty of care to protect children from sexual abuse in England and Wales".
Justice Goddard has decided abuse victims will not sit on her advisory panel, but there will be a separate Victims and Survivors Consultative Panel.
The advisory panel comprises Prof Alexis Jay of Strathclyde University, Drusilla Sharpling of the police inspectorate, Prof Malcolm Evans of Bristol University, and child protection barrister Ivor Frank.
Justice Goddard said she was determined to put as much information into the public domain as she could, as soon as possible. She also referred to annual reports being published, the first of which would be next year.
As she was giving her statement, the office of Attorney General Jeremy Wright QC confirmed that immunity from prosecution under the Official Secrets Act will be offered to current or former public servants prepared to testify about allegations of child sex abuse.
It will not protect anyone who admits taking part in child sexual abuse.
Justice Goddard ended her statement by issuing a call for anyone with information about sexual abuse cases to come forward.
And she urged institutions responsible for caring for children, which may come under scrutiny, to take a "proactive stance towards the inquiry".
The NSPCC said a team of trained counsellors would operate a free dedicated helpline to offer support on its behalf.
Peter Wanless, the charity's chief executive, said many victims had "harrowing stories to tell", adding that the charity wanted to make "what could be a tortuous journey as easy as possible".
The chairman of the Commons home affairs committee, Keith Vaz, said the inquiry, which he described as a "once in a lifetime opportunity", could last a decade.
"And of course we wish [Justice Goddard] luck in the very difficult job that she's got, which could take up to ten years. I mean, this is going to be a very long inquiry."
In February, it was announced Justice Goddard had been chosen to lead the inquiry because she was "as removed as possible from the organisations and institutions that might become the focus of the inquiry", Mrs May said.
Baroness Butler-Sloss, the first inquiry chairwoman, resigned a week after it was set up.
This followed calls for her to quit because her late brother, Sir Michael Havers, had been attorney general in the 1980s.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Mohammed Ali, 31, was convicted at the Old Bailey of attempting to possess a chemical weapon after around five and a half hours of deliberations by a jury.
Ali, from Liverpool, struck a deal with a supplier to buy 500mg of powder - enough to kill 1,400 people.
He was unaware that his source was in fact an FBI agent.
The trial heard the father-of-two was sent harmless powder hidden inside a toy car.
After opening the package, which had been treated with a marker substance, he was arrested at his home the following morning.
Under ultraviolet light, Ali's face lit up, showing he had handled the parcel.
Ali told jurors he was just "curious" and wanted to test the boundaries of the Dark Web, and was unaware that ricin was illegal.
He told the court: "I was interested in the Dark Net and ricin. I just wanted to know what the fuss was about.
"I found lots of different items ranging from drugs, guns, other illegal items, and because I had been watching Breaking Bad I just had ricin in my mind."
His defence team suggested Ali wanted ricin for a "peaceful purpose" and a psychologist told jurors he exhibited signs of Asperger's syndrome.
But prosecutor Sally Howes QC said he was a "chancer" who lied to police about having ricin when he was arrested in the hope that he would "get away with it".
Judge, Mr Justice Saunders said: "There is no evidence that he was planning any sort of terrorist attack.
"There is also no evidence that he had in mind any specific victims for ricin. I do not accept he was going to dispose of it.
"I'm satisfied it would have remained in his possession in some way and that is the basis on which I propose to sentence."
Ali had previously been involved in various illegal money-making scams which included stealing £250,000 from PayPal through a loophole, the court was told.
Sue Hemming, from the Crown Prosecution Service, said: "Ricin is a naturally occurring poison which is fatal even in very small doses. Ali knew the dangers of ricin and had been researching poisons for months before he attempted to obtain it.
"Today shows yet again that even in the case of crimes committed in the darkest corners of the internet, criminals can be caught and convicted." | A man has been found guilty of trying to buy deadly ricin poison from the Dark Web after being inspired by the hit US television series Breaking Bad. |

Can you summarize this content? | Closing the first night of the Democratic convention, Mrs Obama spoke of the vision and values that guided him as president.
She said it was an "extraordinary privilege" to serve as first lady.
President Obama will formally accept the nomination on Thursday, and face Republican Mitt Romney in November.
A recent opinion poll suggests Mr Obama maintains a thin lead over Mr Romney.
But an ABC News/Washington Post poll released as the convention got under way in Charlotte, North Carolina, showed Mr Obama with the lowest pre-convention favourability for an incumbent president since the 1980s.
The president is aiming to recapture the political spotlight over the next few days, after last week's Republican convention.
By Mark MardellNorth America editor
Mrs Obama said that four years ago she "believed deeply" in her husband's "vision for this country", but worried about how a run for president would change their life and the life of their daughters.
In a speech well received by a hyped-up crowd, she shared memories from their 23-year relationship, and noted that she had found a "kindred spirit" in a man whose values were similar to hers.
"Barack and I were both raised by families who didn't have much in the way of money or material possessions but who had given us something far more valuable - their unconditional love, their unflinching sacrifice, and the chance to go places they had never imagined for themselves."
She added: "Barack knows what it means when a family struggles. He knows what it means to want something more for your kids and grandkids.
"Barack knows the American Dream because he's lived it… and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we're from, or what we look like, or who we love."
The first lady's speech connected their shared background to the values she said guided Mr Obama as president.
"As president, you can get all kinds of advice from all kinds of people," she said, "but at the end of the day, when it comes time to make that decision, as president, all you have to guide you are your values and your vision and the life experiences that make you who you are."
She said Mr Obama was inspired by his own background when advocating for laws involving fair pay for women, healthcare and student debt.
He had not been changed by the White House, she said, and was "still the same man I fell in love with all those years ago".
"He's the same man who started his career by turning down high-paying jobs and instead working in struggling neighbourhoods where a steel plant had shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities."
In the toughest moments, she added, "he just keeps getting up and moving forward… with patience and wisdom, and courage and grace."
Earlier, the chair of the Democratic National Committee, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, brought the gala into session with a strike of the gavel.
Shortly after the convention opened, delegates cheered their backing for the party's new platform in an open voice vote.
Among the changes found in the text of the party's 2012 platform was the removal of language from the Middle East section referring to Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
That message was replaced with a passage referring to the party's "unshakeable commitment to Israel's security" and Mr Obama's "steadfast opposition to any attempt to delegitimize Israel".
The change prompted criticism from Republicans and Mitt Romney, who accuse Mr Obama of "selling out" a key US ally.
According to the New York Times' Alessandra Stanley, Michelle Obama's speech was a reminder that the role of president's wife "seems pretty much frozen in the template set by Jacqueline Kennedy and Pat Nixon".
Writing in the The Washington Post, EJ Dionne said the speech was "thoroughly apolitical on the surface" and that it "carried multiple political messages".
Paul West, in the Los Angeles Times, said Mrs Obama set out "to humanise a candidate who often comes across as aloof and remote from the lives of ordinary Americans".
Politico's Jennifer Epstein said Mrs Obama's message was simple: "We are you."
Tuesday's first session saw a series of Democratic governors, members of Congress, mayors and electoral candidates speak in support of Mr Obama and his policies, most notably his much-criticised healthcare reform law.
A video tribute to the late Senator Edward Kennedy included clips from his 1994 Senate debate with Mr Romney, and independent Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee argued that his former party - the Republicans - had lost their way and had forfeited the label of conservative.
Former White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said the next president would set the tone for the next 40 years.
"It will be the president's leadership that determines how we as a nation meet the challenges that face the middle class. It is the president's values that shape a future in which the middle class has hope," he said.
Julian Castro, the Latino Mayor of San Antonio, Texas, gave the keynote address immediately before Mrs Obama.
The Democratic gathering will see Mr Obama and Vice-President Joe Biden formally re-nominated as the party's presidential and vice-presidential candidates on Wednesday.
Later that evening, there will be speeches from Elizabeth Warren, who is fighting Republican incumbent Scott Brown in a high-profile race for a Massachusetts Senate seat, and former President Bill Clinton.
The convention culminates on Thursday with speeches from Mr Obama and Mr Biden.
Republican nominee Mitt Romney is expected to spend the week preparing for a series of debates with Mr Obama.

"The railway line already runs through the site and the installation of a spur link and rail halt would not entail a major redesign of the work that is already being under taken."
Philip Kingston, who is the president of the Roe Valley Chamber of Commerce, said the move was good news for an area that had suffered big job losses in recent years.
"Some of these jobs will obviously be new jobs," he said. "Also some people will relocate and that means new people coming into the area with good jobs and spending power."
"The news has generally brought a feel good factor," he said.
However, a leading figure in the Northern Ireland farming community, Harry Sinclair, said there could be a downside to the move.
"The difficulty I see is that high paid civil servants who communicate with government a lot will spend up to three hours a day on the road travelling, so that is going to be an additional cost to the taxpayer."
The Department of Agriculture will move from Dundonald House in east Belfast to the site of the former Shackleton Army barracks in Ballykelly by 2015.
Locals in the Derry village said it is a much needed boost to the area.
"Since the army camp closed, about 1,000 jobs have been lost in this area and that was devastating to Ballykelly, so to have these jobs relocated is wonderful," one local man said.
He added that the question remaining for many people in the village is whether many jobs will be created or if most current employees will relocate.
A local woman said businesses in the area are hoping to benefit from the move.
"It comes at a time when things were closing down so it's what Ballykelly really needed," she said.
"I work in a hotel and it will boost businesses like that too." | Politicians and public representatives in Londonderry have welcomed the Department of Agriculture's decision to move its headquarters to Ballykelly. |
Summarize the passage below. | The man was using a portable toilet on a Sydney building site on Tuesday, when he suffered a repeat of the incident five months ago.
Jordan, who preferred not to reveal his surname, said he was bitten on "pretty much the same spot" by the spider.
"I'm the most unlucky guy in the country at the moment," he told the BBC.
"I was sitting on the toilet doing my business and just felt the sting that I felt the first time.
"I was like 'I can't believe it's happened again.' I looked down and I've seen a few little legs come from around the rim."
Who, What, Why: What's the worst place to be bitten by a spider?
He said that being bitten the first time had made him wary of using portable toilets.
"After the first time it happened I didn't really want to use one again," he said.
"Toilets got cleaned that day and I thought it was my opportunity to go use one. Had a look under both seats and then I sat down did my business. Next thing you know, I'm bent over in pain."
The tradesman said he was not sure what type of spider bit him this time.
One of his colleagues took him from the worksite in north-west Sydney to Blacktown Hospital - although many of his workmates were quick to see the lighter side of the situation.
"They got worried the first time," he said.
"This time they were making jokes before I was getting in the car."
The hospital declined to discuss the matter, citing patient privacy.
Jordan was released from hospital and said he expected to return to work soon but was unlikely to be using the on-site toilet.
"I think I'll be holding on for dear life to be honest," he said.

Please provide a summary for the content below. | The move comes amid increased security concerns, particularly following the death of the Labour MP Jo Cox.
Until now, MPs who wanted to install security had to apply through the parliamentary expenses watchdog Ipsa.
But the BBC's Norman Smith said MPs had decided to strip the watchdog of its authority over security decisions amid concerns over delays to MPs' requests.
Following a decision by the Estimates Committee of MPs on Tuesday, all MPs will automatically be offered extra security - such as panic buttons, extra lighting, additional locks and emergency fobs - and will not have to apply to have them installed.
Previously, MPs wanting enhanced security arrangements had to have to a risk assessment carried out by the police and written estimates before any work could be carried out.
Jo Cox died last month after being attacked in her West Yorkshire constituency, the first MP to be killed for more than 25 years.
The safety of MPs outside the Houses of Parliament is the responsibility of local police forces but Ipsa has responsibility for approving funding for security procedures and dealing with requests from individual MPs.
The watchdog's chairman wrote to MPs in the aftermath of Ms Cox's death to say the way in which it handled applications would be "reviewed and accelerated" in response to concerns about its role.
In January, the security measures available to MPs at their constituency offices and homes were "standardised" - to try to speed up the process and ensure all 650 members of the Commons receive a consistent service.
They were divided into two packages: routine and enhanced claims.
The former is based on MPs filling in self-assessment forms although MPs must obtain two separate quotes from locksmiths. Those seeking additional protection in response to a specific threat must consult local police commanders who are expected to make recommendations based on a security and intelligence review.
In 2014-15, £77,000 was spent on additional security measures designed to enable MPs to fulfil their duties following police recommendations.
The Estimates Committee, responsible for financial and logistical support to MPs that has not been outsourced to Ipsa, is chaired by Commons Speaker John Bercow and its members include the Leader of the House of Commons and representatives from the main parties.
A spokesperson for the House of Commons Commission, which supervises the overall running of the Houses of Parliament, said it did not publicly discuss the details of security arrangements and "in the event that arrangements to MPs security are revised further, this information will be communicated privately to them".
An Ipsa spokesperson said: "We have been working in partnership with the police and the House of Commons since last year to improve the security support available to MPs and their staff. We have recently streamlined the way we provide this support, responding to the security needs of MPs as defined by the police, while continuing to provide assurance about the public money spent." | All MPs are to be automatically offered additional security in their constituency offices and homes. |
Please summarize the document below. | Finn, 26, felt some tightness in his left side during England's series-clinching victory at the Wanderers.
The Middlesex paceman was sent for scans on Sunday morning, with the results due on Monday.
Chris Woakes, Chris Jordan or Mark Footitt could replace him for the final Test, which starts at Centurion on Friday, as England target a 3-0 win.
"I doubt very much whether he'll be available for the next Test," said England head coach Trevor Bayliss.
"We'll have to wait and see how bad it is and make a decision on the one-day and Twenty20 series.
"But at this stage it looks like we have to make a replacement heading into the last Test. That's unfortunate because I thought he was probably our most dangerous bowler in the first two Tests."
Finn was not in the initial squad for the South African tour after missing last year's series against Pakistan with a bone stress injury in his left foot.
But he was called up in mid-December after proving his fitness and took 11 wickets at an average of 26.09 in the first three Tests.
The fourth Test will present another opportunity for Alex Hales and Nick Compton, who were brought into the England top three for the South Africa series, to cement their places in the side.
Compton, batting at three after a two-and-a-half-year absence, made 85, 49 and 45 in his three first Test innings of the tour, but has since passed 26.
The 32-year-old, who has the second-lowest strike-rate of any batsman to have played 20 innings in England's top three since 1980, fell for a duck trying to complete the run chase in Johannesburg with a loft down the ground.
"I was quite happy with what he tried to do," said Bayliss. "It sent a message that he was playing for team.
"The boys were having a joke about the chances of him hitting a six to win the game, then we thought he might have done it. It was a good catch to get him out.
"He's done pretty well. He's a solid cricketer and with him and Alastair Cook in the order, the rest of the attacking players can bat around them."
Hales, who made his debut in the first Test and became Cook's eighth opening partner in three years, has made 120 runs in six innings, including a maiden half-century in the second Test.
"He's done reasonably well in this series," said Bayliss. "In the first Test in Durban, he looked like he belonged.
"He was struggling with illness before the third Test, so hopefully he can get over that and show us what he can do in Centurion."
Patrick Joseph O'Neill is due to stand trial later this year over the shooting in Ardoyne, north Belfast, in November 2010. He denies the charges.
On Tuesday, he applied for a relaxation in his bail conditions so he could attend a Madness concert on 20 August.
A Belfast Crown Court judge agreed to extend his curfew for one night only.
The ruling means Mr O'Neill, of no fixed address, will be able to stay out until midnight on 20 August to attend the gig, which is part of the Belsonic music festival in Belfast.
Making the application, Mr O'Neill's defence barrister said his client had obeyed all of the conditions imposed on him since he was released on bail, including observing a curfew from 20:00 BST to 06:00 BST.

Give a brief overview of this passage. | They also met with a number of MLAs from Sinn Féin and the Alliance Party.
They said they wanted to outline their "disappointment and anger caused by a series of divisive and insulting comments about the language".
DUP MLA Gregory Campbell caused controversy recently after the 'curry my yoghurt' incident.
Janet Muller, from the Irish language umbrella advocacy group, POBAL and Linda Ervine from the East Belfast Irish language learners' project, Turas, said the comments "should be unacceptable anywhere, but especially in a political assembly".
"We call for the introduction of a rights-based Irish language act to defend and promote Irish, as was promised in the St Andrews Agreement," they said.
The Sinn Féin delegation who met the groups included Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness, Culture Minister Carál Ní Chuilín, and assembly member Máirtín Ó Muilleoir.
Chris Lyttle and Trevor Lunn from the Alliance Party also met the group.
Mr Lyttle said it was "frustrating that the DUP have mocked the Irish language in such an inappropriate way and have refused to apologise despite it being clear that many people have been offended".
"We should be respectful of our linguistic diversity and allow the promotion of all our languages in a shared society," he said.
The Motor Sports Authority (MSA) told organisers it would be inappropriate to hold the event until after an inquiry is held into recent fatalities.
Three spectators died at the Jim Clark Rally, near Coldstream, in 2014 and a woman was fatally injured at the 2013 Snowman Rally in the Highlands.
Organisers said the decision threatened the event's future.
Iain Provan, 64, his partner Elizabeth Allan, 63, and Len Stern, 71, were killed when a car involved in the Jim Clark Rally spun off the course in May 2014.
It had been an annual event dating back to 1970 to celebrate world champion Jim Clark, but it has not been held since the deaths.
The Crown Office announced in December that a joint fatal accident inquiry would consider their deaths, along with that of Joy Robson, 50, who was struck by a car taking part in the Snowman Rally in Inverness in February 2013.
Dan Wright, chairman of the Jim Clark Rally, said he received an email from the MSA which said "it would not be appropriate for MSA to issue a permit for the rally until the FAI has been completed and the sheriff has issued his findings".
Organisers said they were "at a loss" to understand the reasoning and said measures had been put in place to improve spectator facilities at all rally events.
Mr Wright said: "In any other workplace or sporting endeavour, routine carries on while FAIs are under way, so we don't understand the insurer's reasoning behind this decision.
"They may well have consulted extensively with their insurance partners, but the rally organisers were not consulted."
Rally manager Russel Blood said: "We understand that the inquest process under English law differs from fatal accident inquiries under Scots law, so to take this decision without wider consultation is not what should be expected from a sport's UK national governing body.
"This outcome has thoroughly demoralised the whole team behind the running of this major motor sports event."
Ettrick, Roxburgh and Berwickshire MSP John Lamont said more needed to be done to safeguard the rally's future.
"The Jim Clark Rally has been a major contributor to the Borders economy and the loss of the event for yet another year is a big blow to the organisers, local businesses and motor sports enthusiasts," he said.
"With the MSA now saying the rally can't take place while the fatal accident inquiry is ongoing, there is a real risk the event will be lost forever."
He said it needed to be made clear there were "no legal reasons" why the rally could not take place and an effort made to change the MSA's decision.
The rally was not held the year after the deaths and was cancelled last year due to low entries but organisers hope it can be held in 2018.
The FAI will be the first time that one inquiry has been held into deaths which occurred in different parts of Scotland, but Lord Advocate James Wolffe QC considered it in the public interest for a single inquiry to be held as both incidents involved spectators at rallies.
The Crown Office has also confirmed no criminal proceedings will be brought in relation to either event - although this could be reconsidered if additional evidence comes to light. | Two Irish language groups have presented a joint letter to the Stormont parties calling for fair treatment and respect for the language.

Can you provide a summary of this content? | Mr Ghani told the Heart of Asia meeting in Islamabad that regional co-operation was needed to end terrorism.
His comments are being seen in reference to Kabul's long-held view that Pakistan supports the Taliban in Afghanistan, a charge Islamabad denies.
Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj promised her country's help to Kabul.
She will also hold rare bilateral talks with Pakistani officials on Wednesday.
The Heart of Asia gathering brings together Asian and other countries to discuss the future of Afghanistan and its neighbours.
Security co-operation between Afghanistan and Pakistan is seen as crucial in countering a growing threat from the Taliban and other militants in the region.
On Wednesday, Mr Ghani blamed Pakistan-based militant groups for the escalating violence in Afghanistan.
"The Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan launched a vicious attack on children in Peshawar for which they robustly responded. But that very response brought them onto our country... What is the nature of the Taliban and how do we deal with it?" he asked.
Militants from the Pakistani Taliban killed more than 150 people, mostly children, in an attack on an army-run school in Peshawar last year.
Mr Ghani also warned that the presence of international militant groups was growing in Afghanistan.
"Al-Qaeda, Daesh [Islamic State militant group] and terrorists from China, Russia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, the Middle East are all, unfortunately, present on our soil."
Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said "working for the achievement of a peaceful neighbourhood is a cardinal principal of Pakistan's foreign policy".
"We should envisage collective and coordinated measures on the regional security front to ensure that the gains and struggle against terrorism are durable and irreversible," he said.
Afghanistan is also a source of tension between Pakistan and India, with the former accusing the latter of meddling in what it sees as its backyard.
Ms Swaraj said India was prepared to "move our co-operation at a pace which Pakistan is comfortable with".
"But today, let us at least resolve to help Afghanistan - in the best traditions of good neighbourliness - through more effective transit arrangements," she said.
India will host the Heart of Asia conference next year.
Meanwhile, Ms Swaraj is likely to meet Mr Sharif and other Pakistani officials on Wednesday.
Her visit comes days after India and Pakistan held unexpected peace talks in Bangkok after a stalemate of four months.
They cancelled a high-level meeting in August after months of tension in disputed Kashmir, but ties have eased since.
Ms Swaraj's visit comes in the aftermath of a dramatic rise - and then a rather sudden ease - in tensions between the two nuclear-armed rivals.
Pakistan wants to discuss Kashmir, claimed by both countries in its entirety.
India wants Pakistan to allow greater commercial interaction, liberalise visa regimes, grant transit rights to traders between Delhi and Kabul, and stamp out militant groups which it believes Pakistan has raised to destabilise Kashmir and Afghanistan.
This is a complex situation, and talks in the past have often broken down, underlining a trust deficit on both sides.
However, Ms Swaraj's visit suggests that the two sides are ready to restart peace talks. And a measure of their success would be if they can draw up a road-map for more substantive talks in the near future.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a brief meeting with Mr Sharif at the climate change conference in Paris on 1 December.
That was followed by Sunday's meeting in the Thai capital, Bangkok where the two sides said their security advisers talked about terrorism, Kashmir, peace and security.
Correspondents say the talks and Ms Swaraj's visit show that the nuclear-armed rivals are open to restart peace talks after what was described as a "diplomatic fiasco" in August.

Provide a brief summary of this section. | The group, Economists for Brexit, argue that leaving the EU would boost the UK economy by 4% in 10 years.
Brexit would put the UK outside the EU's customs union, which puts tariffs on imported goods.
The report claims that by being free of those constraints, prices in the UK would fall by 8%.
The EU referendum: All you need to know
The group proposes a World Trade Organization (WTO) agreement with the EU, similar to that enjoyed by the US and China.
The report's authors include Professor Patrick Minford, a former adviser to Baroness Margaret Thatcher, and Gerard Lyons, a former chief economist at Standard Chartered Bank and now an adviser to the London Mayor, Boris Johnson, who is campaigning for Britain to leave the EU.
The economic arguments have so far been tilted towards the Remain camp with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) warning against leaving.
The OECD said leaving the EU would be the equivalent of imposing an additional "tax" of one month's income on UK workers.
A spokesperson for Britain Stronger In Europe said: "[UK] Treasury analysis shows that trading under WTO rules would be the worst possible alternative to EU membership, seeing households £5,200 worse off and a public spending black hole of £45bn."

What is the summary of the following article? | The Department for Communities and Local Government said about 37,080 new homes were started in the last quarter of 2015, up 23% on the previous year.
Completions were up by 22% to 37,230.
Ministers said they had "got the country building again" but housing charity Shelter said the increase was "not good enough".
In the year up to December, 143,560 new homes were started, which was up by 6% on 2014 - 22% below 2007's peak but 91% up on the slump recorded in 2009.
Homes built by private developers were up by 8% but those built by housing associations down by 1%.
The report said the highest completion rates were found in a band starting to the north of the London green belt, running through Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Northamptonshire and Leicestershire, with strong completion levels also around Devon and Gloucestershire in the South West.
Areas with the lowest completion rates include Kingston upon Thames, Southend-on-Sea and Gravesham, it said.
Housing Minister Brandon Lewis said the amount of new homes completed had hit a "seven-year high", adding: "However we're not complacent.
"That's why we've set out the most ambitious housing vision for more than a generation, doubling the housing budget so we can meet our ambition of delivering a million new homes."
But Labour's housing spokesman John Healey said the total was "still falling far short of what the country needs".
"Ministers have talked up the economic recovery, but these figures show that there were more than 20% fewer new homes started last year than before the global financial crisis," he said.
Shelter's chief executive Campbell Robb said only half the number of homes needed were being built.

Imam Abdul Kader Abdi said: "They were throwing stones at the mosque and shouting, 'we don't want Isis in here', and 'you know what happened in Manchester'."
The group, who had gathered in the mosque in Avenue Road, Torquay, began their early morning prayers, despite the ongoing attack.
"No-one went out of the mosque. They stayed for a while and after the prayers they left.", Imam Abdul said.
"We are very shocked, we didn't expect it, we haven't had this problem before."

Later, it would be towed to another location nearby for repairs.
Hugh Shaw, the Secretary of State's Representative for Maritime Salvage and Intervention, who is overseeing the salvage operation, said the rig would only be moved off the beach if this did not put the environment or the rig at risk of damage.
He said refloating the rig would not been done "for the sake of meeting high tides".

As well as making damage assessments, they have been securing two towlines to the rig ready for a tug to pick them up.
On Friday, an exercise is to be held on test procedures designed to deal with a potential diesel oil spill from the drilling rig grounded on Lewis.
More than 12,000 gallons (56,000 litres) of fuel were lost from two tanks on the Transocean Winner after it came ashore at Dalmore last week.
Tens of thousands of gallons remain in other tanks on the decommissioned rig. This fuel is being transferred to tanks above the waterline on the rig.
The Maritime and Coastguard Agency said a helicopter has been delivering equipment to the rig for use in the operation to move it.
The gear includes compressors which will be used to provide buoyancy for the refloat.
Smit Salvage has been checking for damage and carrying out stability analysis to make sure Transocean Winner has sufficient buoyancy, the MCA said.
This work comes as representatives of Transocean prepare to meet people who live close to where the structure was blown ashore.
The company's representatives are to attend a public meeting in Carloway on Thursday night.
Staff from salvage company Smit and Mr Shaw are also to attend.

Summarize the content given in the passage. | The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and Global Tiger Forum said 3,890 tigers had been counted in the latest global census.
In 2010 there were just 3,200 tigers in the wild. In 1900, there were 100,000.
While hopeful that the numbers indicate a population increase, experts cautioned it could also just indicate improved data gathering.
"More important than the absolute numbers is the trend, and we're seeing the trend going in the right direction," said Ginette Hemley, senior vice-president of wildlife conservation at the WWF.
WWF International's director general Marco Lambertini said the latest figures showed "that we can save species and their habitats when governments, local communities and conservationists work together".
The census was released ahead of a meeting in Delhi this week of ministers from 13 countries where tigers live. The conference hopes to double the global tiger population by 2022.
India alone has more than half the world's tigers, at 2,226 in the latest estimate.

Pleasurewood Hills is one of the most popular attractions in the east of England with more than 200,000 visitors a year. The life-size Woody mascot is a familiar sight in the grounds.
Marketing manager Kate Wood said park staff were "absolutely distraught" to learn of the theft.
"We have managed to get the registration of the two male offenders who took Woody and Ronnie and the police have been informed," she added.
"Instead of pursuing the matter legally further however, we just want our characters back and would just ask for the safe return of the two characters back to the park, and no further action will be taken."
She confirmed that CCTV at the park was also being checked.
The mascots are the only ones in existence and created specially by soft toy makers Lefray for Pleasurewood Hills, which celebrates its 35th birthday next year.
