  • Kinnegar to Donaghadee Greenway
    KINNEGAR TO DONAGHADEE GREENWAY PROPOSED ROUTE The Council, in October 2017, engaged AECOM and Sustrans to commence the design of a greenway scheme between Kinnegar and Donaghadee. The current proposed route put forward as part of this pre-application community consultation is shown below. The proposed route is approximately 28.3km (17.6 miles) in length, starting at Airport Road West in Kinnegar, terminating at the Commons Park, Donaghadee. For most of the route, the proposed path is 3.0m width, increasing to 4.0m at structures (pedestrian/cycle bridges etc.) Where the existing path is of sufficient width / quality, no construction is proposed (denoted by yellow linetype in the drawing below); examples of these areas include Crawfordsburn Beach and Ballyholme Beach. DETAIL 3: BOARDWALK AT SWINELEY BAY To the west of Crawfordsburn Beach, the proposed route passes along the beach at Swineley Bay. In its current state, passage along the beach is affected by the variable ground conditions which can change from day to day depending on the weather. The preferred design for Swineley Bay is to place a boardwalk above the mean high water mark. The boardwalk will match the existing ground TYPICAL DECKING DETAIL PLAN VISUALISATION OF BOARDWALK VERTICAL BAR RAILING SLIP RESISTANT COMPOSITE DECKING: levels190 x 40mm along WOOD-POLYMER COMPOSITE the (HOLLOW CHAMBERS) beach.

    c/o FPA 23-28 Penn Street Hackney London N1 5DL [email protected] The Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt MP Department of Health Richmond House 79 Whitehall Westminster London SW1A 2NS 27th June 2017 Dear Secretary of State, NHS England funding for women from Northern Ireland seeking abortion services This year marks 50 years since the passing of the 1967 Abortion Act. Although this landmark legislation granted reproductive rights to women in Great Britain, it also marks 50 years of differential treatment for women in Northern Ireland. As you will know, on 14th June 2017, the Supreme Court narrowly decided to dismiss an appeal that challenged your Department’s policy not to fund abortion services in England for women who are normally resident in Northern Ireland. The court was divided 3-2 against the appeal; while expressing their sympathy for women in Northern Ireland, they stated that they are restrained by your argument that the decision is out of “respect”’ for the democratic decisions of the Northern Ireland Assembly. As MPs, peers and MLAs, we are dedicated to campaigning for a change to this unfair and discriminatory law. However, while our advocacy in this area continues, we would like to highlight the Court’s ruling which states that, as Secretary of State, you hold the legal authority to change your policy on funding abortion services in England for women normally resident in Northern Ireland. We urge you to use this authority and reduce the significant financial burden women travelling from Northern Ireland face. The situation for women normally resident in Northern Ireland The Supreme Court case was brought by a young woman, A, who in 2012 as a pregnant 15-year-old girl travelled with her mother, B, from their home in Northern Ireland to Manchester for an abortion at a cost of £900.

For good. 1 Introduction from Naomi Long Dear friend, Yet again, a Stormont government has collapsed. It happened under the UUP and SDLP, and now it’s happening under the DUP and Sinn Fein. While we didn’t choose to be here, it actually gives you an opportunity to make change, for good. It is your chance to take a stand against scandals, such as RHI, NAMA, Red Sky and links to paramilitaries. It is your chance to say enough is enough to the division that holds us back and costs us more per year than all of these other scandals put together. That division won’t go away if we keep voting along orange and green lines. We need to vote for people who will bring us together and make us stronger. Our last manifesto – released only nine months ago – was a five-year plan to transform our Government and our community. In the last eight months, we made real progress towards delivering that promised change and we have highlighted some of those achievements in this document.
