Comments:

Intelligence and Labs were listed as exemptions to implementing NSPS. It is unclear why the Medical community was not exempt as well from implementing NSPS due to the nature of their business. The large numbers of personnel that have specialized skill sets, higher education and training that work in medical facilities worldwide as medical nurses, physicians, and technologists seem very simariliar to personnel skill sets of the exempted organizations involved in intelligence and Lab. The medical community is also involved in medical research and development worldwide. Request reconsideration and exemption of the medical community from NSPS.
