In 1992-1993, a group of senior officials in Canadian federal departments created a collaborative forum called the Council on Administration. Their intent was to increase efficiency, improve service delivery, and cut costs by means of a series of initiatives called "Locally Shared Support Services"(LSSS). Because the member departments and agencies co-tenanted a large government office complex(Les Terrasses de la Chaudière(TLC) 1, located in Hull, within the National Capital Region) the founders of the Council saw potential for achieving these goals through the power of collective action... Since this innovative change process was launched in 1992, LSSS initiatives have led to the elimination of duplication; improved productivity and savings; sharing of innovative ideas, expertise and best practices; and development of models for use by other departments and agencies in the NRC and other regions... 3, record 2, English, - Locally%20Shared%20Support%20Services

En 1992-1993, des cadres supérieurs de six ministères et agences fédéraux canadiens ont formé un groupe de collaborateurs appelé Conseil d'administration. Ils voulaient travailler à accroître la productivité, à améliorer la prestation des services et à réduire les coûts par une série d'initiatives dites « services d'appui partagés localement » (SAPL). Comme leurs ministères et leurs organismes respectifs partageaient la location d'un vaste ensemble de bureaux gouvernementaux [Les Terrasses de la Chaudière1 (TLC), situées à Hull, au sein de la région de la capitale nationale (RCN)], ils ont vu la possibilité d'atteindre ces objectifs par la force de l'action collective ... 3, record 2, French, - Services%20d%27appui%20partag%C3%A9s%20localement

Digital System A allows for complementary use of satellite and terrestrial broadcast transmitters resulting in better spectrum efficiency and higher service availability in all receiving situations. It especially offers improved performance in multipath and shadowing environments which are typical of urban reception conditions, and the required satellite transponder power can be reduced by the use of on-channel terrestrial repeaters to serve as "gap-fillers.
