Hammad and liberal MP Rakan Al-Nasef strongly defended Ibrahim saying the former minister per- formed extremely well and saved public funds. The law- maker said Ibrahim has rushed in submitting his resig- nation adding that he safeguarded public funds when he cancelled the Airport expansion project because the bids were above estimates. Nasef spoke about a plot against Ibrahim because the value of projects is KD 5 billion and accused certain quarters of trying to axe the former minister who worked with all honesty and dedication to serve his country. The Council of Ministers on Monday accepted the resignation of Ibrahim who quit a day after indirect- ly accusing some MPs of receiving bribes in order to grill him. MP Hammad said that the former minister did not accuse the lawmakers directly as he only answered a question about corruption. He said the planned probe committee will summon Ibrahim to question him about his statements. MP Nasef said that the former minister had been tar- geted from the very beginning, adding that a number of MPs discussed grilling Ibrahim in the last Assembly session and even discussed filing a motion of no-confi- dence against him. He said that Ibrahim as a minister of electricity and water succeeded in collecting bills worth KD 570 million and for the first time in 20 years, Kuwait had a surplus in power production. In another development, MP Nabeel Al-Fadhel said yesterday that he challenged the 15-year-old law on sex segregation at Kuwait University at the constitutional court to rule if the court is constitutional or not.

  • Annex D – What We Asked
    Annex D – What we asked Letter dated 17 July 2014 from the Director General of the Crime and Policing Group, Home Office Dear Colleagues CHILD SEX ABUSE As you are aware, on 7 July, the Home Secretary announced two separate inquiries relating to child sex abuse: an independent inquiry panel (“Inquiry Panel”) to consider whether and the extent to which public bodies and other non-state institutions have taken seriously their duty of care to protect children from sexual abuse and a review (“the Review”) of the independent investigations, commissioned in 2013 by the Home Office’s Permanent Secretary. I am writing to provide further details of these and to suggest related action which your departments may wish to take. The Review The Home Secretary appointed Peter Wanless, the Chief Executive of the NSPCC, and Richard Whittam QC to review the independent investigations commissioned last year by the Permanent Secretary to look at two separate issues: firstly whether the Home Office received any information about organised child sex abuse between 1979 to 1999; and secondly whether the Home Office had ever funded the Paedophile Information Exchange (PIE). The Review will consider whether those investigations were carried out appropriately and whether their conclusions are robust. In addition and importantly, the Review will also examine how the police and prosecuting authorities receiving information from the Home Office handled that information when it was referred to them. I attach the terms of reference of the Review to this letter for your information. It is worth noting that the two independent investigations referred to immediately above are referred to as “reviews” in the terms of reference.

Designed and built in-house by our staff of engineers, this robotic “Drum Machine,” called the Gluing Gantry, ensures that every Evans head has a true collar. A series of vacuum fixtures holds the film in place for each head while the robotic gluing arm circles above the hoop and dispenses epoxy. The result is a drumhead that tunes both easily and consistently. At Evans, we do it right the first time. And every time.

  • Madrid Close In
    PREVIEW ISSUE FOUR – 24TH APRIL 2012 MADRID CLOSE IN REAL TAKE THE SPOILS IN THE EL CLASICO AND CLOSE IN ON THE SILVERWARE After a poor week for both sides in Europe, Real and Barca were desperate to grab a win against their biggest rivals on a dramatic, rain-lashed Saturday night at the Nou Camp. It was Real that grabbed the vital win and probably clinched the La Liga title. Los Merengues went ahead through German midfielders Sami Khedira and were comfortable for long periods, but Barca’s Chilean substitute Alexis Sánchez equalised with just 20 minutes remaining. Cristiano Ronaldo’s clinical strike just three minutes later settled the game with Madrid now seven points clear, with only four games remaining. Madrid coach José Mourinho named an very attacking team and his side began the better. Ronaldo’s early header from a corner brought a superb flying save from goalkeeper Víctor Valdés. His opposite number Iker Casillas was then quickly off his line when full-back Dani Alves dispossessed Sergio Ramos. The game was being played at a fearsome pace and French striker Karim Benzema brought the best out of Valdés again. Barca thought they had gone front when Alves had the ball in the net after a Cristian Tello run, but the youngster had been flagged offside. INSIDE THIS WEEK’S WFW Real’s brave start was rewarded when Pepe’s header from another corner was half- - RESULTS ROUND-UP ON ALL MAJOR stopped by Valdes and Khedira tackled an COMPETITIONS FROM AROUND THE hesitant Carles Puyol to push the ball into the WORLD net to put Madrid ahead.
