LCME – we are fully accredited through the next site visit. Will continue to work on some followup questions.

The issue of the Prudential contributions to lobbyists was extensively discussed. Michael Bloom emailed Prudential regarding this and he provided a response from Prudential regarding their contributions to trade associations claiming that the contributions are not made for pursuit of a particular agenda. There was not much enthusiasm for pursuing this.
