+
+__2 year objectives:__
+1. Consultation with ‘users’. TP ran an earlier consultation – results from this should be fed into this consultation. We note that there will be differing requirements for different users, for example.
+ a. Jason P set up could be relatively simple but could need additional infrastructure for hypoxia among other requirements 
+ b. RFI – objectives here are much more complex and require significant infrastructure investment.
+2. Systems engineering – basic reality check – layout - see previous Neil Bliss input to WP6
+3. ‘Small’ investment in BU beamtime. Can we provide money for access costs for Birmingham and use this to attract other diagnostics groups. ~£1k/day – 20-25 days over 2 years? Set up days can be zero cost to user if appropriately scheduled.
+
+__5 year objectives:__ 
+
+Instrumentation of a ‘low energy’ system fit for use. Requires beam monitoring on beamline and immediately before test station.
+Diagnostics should include:
+1. Current pick ups
+2. CarstenW gas system
+a. Post Doc plus PhD?
+b. Needs expt
+3. Sci Wire – JM RAL
+4. TPrice larger 2D system
+5. Outcomes from yr1-2 task3
+
+__Additional notes:__
+
+• TP notes Ionisation chamber will not work – NPL input confirms this.
+• TP discuss with Stuart Green ‘other groups with money’ potential to collate numerous smaller money pots to provide sufficient funds for end station work.
+• JP if it were possible to get Birmingham vertical beam line up and running relatively quickly, we could use Birmingham as a test bed for LhARA, this would allow tests at a mock-up an end station. In terms of diagnostics testing the vertical beam line is not required.
