Report on the Administrative History of the Chartist Trials Papers
A Report on the Administrative History of the ‘Chartist Trials’ Papers Introduction: The documents now referred to as the ‘Chartist Trials’ papers, an archive collection conserved and catalogued by Newport Public Library c. 1960 in a series of twenty-five bound volumes, consist primarily of the records generated during the magistrates’ preliminary hearings conducted at the Westgate Hotel, Newport, the scene of the Chartist Rising. These hearings, held in preparation for the Chartist Trials at Monmouth in January 1840, commenced on Tuesday 5 November and were held almost continuously down to Saturday 30 November (some residual cases were heard at Monmouth on the 4 & 5 December ), before the Grand Jury for the Special Commission assembled at Shire Hall on 10 December 1839. In the course of these hearings the capital charge of high treason was initially made against fifty of the accused. The Attorney-General, Sir John Campbell, and the prosecution team subsequently reduced the number charged with high treason to a total of twenty persons (in part for reasons of practical legal management). Broadly speaking the remaining Chartists indicted for offences during the Rising were prosecuted on the lesser charges of riot and conspiracy, and sedition. The Grand Jury (sitting 10-11 Dec.) found true bills to proceed to the main trial by Petty Jury against fourteen of the twenty persons presented for the charge of high treason . Of the preliminary hearings that commenced on the morning of 5 November John Frost, Charles Waters and John Partridge were the first accused brought before the makeshift courtroom (Frost had been arrested the previous evening in the house of the printer John Partridge, by Thomas Jones Phillips). -

Social Services Department Newport Adult Services
Newport Adult Services: Market Position Statement SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT NEWPORT ADULT SERVICES MARKET POSITION STATEMENT 2014 – 2019 1 Newport Adult Services: Market Position Statement 1. INTRODUCTION This document is aimed at existing and potential providers of adult social care. It represents rt of a dialogue between the Council, people who use services, carers, providers and others, about the vision for the future of local social care markets. We are committed to stimulating a diverse, active market where innovation and energy is encouraged and rewarded and where poor practice is actively discouraged. This is an important role for the Council, and a key part of shaping what kind of place Newport is, namely a place where people with care and support needs, their families and carers, are included and involved in community, economic and social life. This Market Position Statement (MPS) is designed to be a document containing intelligence, information and analysis of benefit to existing and potential providers of adult social care and support in Newport. It aims to describe current and potential future demand and supply; the funding that we will have available as commissioners; potential demand from people funding their own services; and begins to describe how we would like to work with the social care market going forward. Providers of adult social care can learn about the council’s intentions as a purchaser of services, and our vision for how services might respond to the personalisation / citizen direction of adult social care and support. Voluntary and community organisations can learn about future opportunities and what would enable you to build on your knowledge of local needs in order to develop new activities and services. -
