Abstract: To describe the slow dynamics of a system out of equilibrium, but close to a dynamical arrest, we generalize the ideas of previous work to the case where time-translational invariance is broken. We introduce a model of the dynamics that is reasonably general, and show how all of the unknown parameters of this model may be related to the observables or to averages of the noise. One result is a generalisation of the Fluctuation Dissipation Theorem of type two (FDT2), and the method is thereby freed from this constraint. Significantly, a systematic means of implementing the theory to higher order is outlined. We propose the simplest possible closure of these generalized equations, following the same type of approximations that have been long known for the equilibrium case of Mode Coupling Theory (MCT). Naturally, equilibrium MCT equations are found as a limit of this generalized formalism. %We indicate that, within the same general %framework, it should be possible to make higher level approximations, %leading to more general applicability.
