The basic starting point of much of welfare economics is the theorem that the result of a system of perfect competition under ideal conditions is a "Pareto optimum. "A Pareto optimum is a state of affairs which cannot be altered to the advantage of one participant without at least some disadvantage to some other person. In general, for any state which is not a Pareto optimum, there will exist another feasible state which would be preferred to the original one by all concerned.  6, record 2, English, - Pareto%20optimum

L'optimum de Pareto comporte la réalisation de deux groupes de conditions définissant respectivement, l'optimalité des productions et celle des échanges. Un optimum de production est atteint lorsque, avec des ressources données, il est impossible d'augmenter la production d'un bien, sans diminuer celle d'au moins un autre bien. [...] Un optimum de l'échange est une situation telle, que l'on ne peut, avec des quantités de biens données, augmenter la satisfaction d'un consommateur sans diminuer celle d'au moins un autre individu.  3, record 2, French, - optimum%20de%20Pareto

Mobile/Transportable PCB Destruction. A number of companies have developed mobile/transportable PCB thermal destruction systems. These mobile/transportable systems have the advantage that destruction can be performed on-site, which eliminates the costs and risks of transporting wastes from a waste site to a stationary destruction facility. Few systems are truly mobile in that the system or system modules can travel by road to the site and be operative with no additional site assembling or fabrication. In general, the size and complexity of thermal destruction systems requires site preparation, system module assembly, and a commissioning trial burn period prior to hazardous waste operation.

Destruction des BPC en installation mobile ou transportable. Un certain nombre de compagnies ont mis au point des installations de destruction thermique des BPC de type mobile ou transportable. Ces installations mobiles ou transportables ont l'avantage de détruire les déchets dangereux sur place, éliminant ainsi le coût et les risques du transport des déchets jusqu'à une usine de destruction. Peu de systèmes sont réellement mobiles, en ce sens que l'équipement ou ses éléments ne peuvent pas être transportés par voie routière jusqu'au site et y fonctionner sans assemblage ou montage préalables. [...] L'unité mobile de destruction des déchets dangereux par arc-plasma de «Westinghouse Electric Corporation» a été testée à l'échelle expérimentale et à l'échelle industrielle avec des déchets liquides contenant des BPC.

Retention Trusts. In cases where holding companies have been established for estate planning purposes, right in such companies may be put into a trust for retention. In such circumstances, the trustee may not dispose of or otherwise affect the rights placed in trust. The Assistant Deputy Registrar General may serve as trustee of such trusts. In establishing such trusts, ministers may make arrangements to have third parties exercise their voting rights in relation to the shares in the holding company as long as such arrangements will not result in a conflict of interest. Ministers who have established such trusts cannot be consulted or informed of the disposition of any assets owned by the holding company that would be considered to be "controlled assets" under the terms of the guidelines applicable to ministers of the Crown. Retention trusts are a recent innovation, first permitted under the guidelines of April 1980 for ministers of the Crown. Because the retention trust requires the formation of a family holding company for estate planning purposes, it is not a vehicle which is suitable for many people.... The main advantage of the retention trust is that it is a useful divestment vehicle for ministers who have substantial assets and who have arrangements in place which require that the assets be held under proper management through a holding company. The disadvantage of such a trust is that it is a prohibitively expensive route to be followed by someone of modest means who would rather have had a frozen trust.  2, record 9, English, - retention%20trust
