Water Safety Policy in Scotland —A Guide
Water Safety Policy in Scotland —A Guide 2 Introduction Scotland is surrounded by coastal water – the North Sea, the Irish Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. In addition, there are also numerous bodies of inland water including rivers, burns and about 25,000 lochs. Being safe around water should therefore be a key priority. However, the management of water safety is a major concern for Scotland. Recent research has found a mixed picture of water safety in Scotland with little uniformity or consistency across the country.1 In response to this research, it was suggested that a framework for a water safety policy be made available to local authorities. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) has therefore created this document to assist in the management of water safety. In order to support this document, RoSPA consulted with a number of UK local authorities and organisations to discuss policy and water safety management. Each council was asked questions around their own area’s priorities, objectives and policies. Any policy specific to water safety was then examined and analysed in order to help create a framework based on current practice. It is anticipated that this framework can be localised to each local authority in Scotland which will help provide a strategic and consistent national approach which takes account of geographical areas and issues.

Chris Ryan on Behalf of 52 Lewis and Harris Businesses – 3 April 2008
Submission from Chris Ryan on behalf of 52 Lewis and Harris businesses – 3 April 2008 Dear Sir/Madam 7-DAY FERRY SERVICES TO LEWIS & HARRIS The undersigned businesses, all based in the Western Isles, request that Sunday ferry services to Lewis & Harris should be introduced in the summer of 2008. This will be a necessary and long overdue development with the potential to improve the islands’ tourism industry in line with the Scottish Governments’ target of a 50% increase in tourism revenues. The proposed introduction of RET fares from October 2008 is also likely to result in increased demand and additional capacity will be needed to cope with peak season demand, particularly at weekends. However, our view as businesses is that Sunday services must be phased-in ahead of RET and that they should certainly be in place for summer 2008. Apart from the immediate boost for the local economy, this would give accommodation providers and tourism related businesses an indication of the response to weekend services and allow for business planning for the summer of 2009, which is the Year of Homecoming. Quite apart from the many social benefits, Sunday ferry services will make a major difference to the local economy by extending the tourist season, enabling businesses to work more efficiently and spreading visitor benefits throughout the islands. As a specific example, the Hebridean Celtic Festival, held in July, attracts over 15,000 people and contributes over £1m to the local economy. A Sunday ferry service would mean that many visitors to the festival would stay an extra night, enjoy all 4 –days of the festival and see more of the islands.

PREFACE Since ever dwellers on the Continent were first able to navigate the ocean, the isles of Great Britain and Ireland must have been objects which excited their supreme interest. To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles. But while we have histories which inform us of the several historic invasions, they all seem to me to belittle far too much the influence of the Norse Invasions in particular. This error I would fain correct, so far as regards Celtic Scotland.

S. S. N. S. Norse and Gaelic Coastal Terminology in the Western Isles It
3 S. S. N. S. Norse and Gaelic Coastal Terminology in the Western Isles It is probably true to say that the most enduring aspect of Norse place-names in the Hebrides, if we expect settlement names, has been the toponymy of the sea coast. This is perhaps not surprising, when we consider the importance of the sea and the seashore in the economy of the islands throughout history. The interplay of agriculture and fishing has contributed in no small measure to the great variety of toponymic terms which are to be found in the islands. Moreover, the broken nature of the island coasts, and the variety of scenery which they afford, have ensured the survival of a great number of coastal terms, both in Gaelic and Norse. The purpose of this paper, then, is to examine these terms with a Norse content in the hope of assessing the importance of the two languages in the various islands concerned. The distribution of Norse names in the Hebrides has already attracted scholars like Oftedal and Nicolaisen, who have concen trated on establis'hed settlement names, such as the village names of Lewis (OftedaI1954) and the major Norse settlement elements (Nicolaisen, S.H.R. 1969). These studies, however, have limited themselves to settlement names, although both would recognise that the less important names also merit study in an intensive way. The field-work done by the Scottish Place Name Survey, and localised studies like those done by MacAulay (TGSI, 1972) have gone some way to rectifying this omission, but the amount of material available is enormous, and it may be some years yet before it is assembled in a form which can be of use to scholar ship.

Western Isles Local Plan: Pre Inquiry Update
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE 13 JUNE 2007 WESTERN ISLES LOCAL PLAN: PRE INQUIRY UPDATE Report by Director for Sustainable Communities PURPOSE OF REPORT To provide an update on the Local Plan Inquiry process and consider further proposed modifications to the Local Plan. COMPETENCE 1.1 There are no legal or other constraints to the recommendations being implemented. The financial implications arising from the Local Plan Inquiry have not been included in core budgets for 2007-08 and monitoring of the associated unavoidable costs will be reported to Policy and Resources Committee as part of the normal financial monitoring process. SUMMARY 2.1 The statutory Development Plan preparation process allows for unresolved Local Plan consultation objections to be considered by an independent Reporter and, as noted at the last Committee series, provisional arrangements were made for a Local Plan Inquiry (LPI) to commence on 25 June 2007. However, no objectors have indicated to the Reporter that they wish their objection to be considered at formal LPI or informal hearing and accordingly the remaining outstanding objections will now be considered via written representation submissions. 2.2 A number of original objections to the Local Plan have been successfully resolved through negotiations and/or proposed modifications to the Local Plan. However, currently 7 objectors have indicated they are maintaining objections and a further 43 are assumed to be maintaining objections (i.e. the objector has not indicated to the Comhairle or Reporter that the objection is withdrawn). The position regarding objections is outlined in Appendix 1. 2.3 In response to recent negotiations, further proposed modifications to the Local Plan that will result in objection withdrawal are proposed in Appendix 2.
