Item 7 Appendix a , Item 7. PDF 369 KB
REPRESENTATION MODEL INDEPENDENT INQUIRY This is the report of my independent inquiry into the objections of two Combined Fire and Rescue Authorities (FRAs) – Cleveland Fire Authority and Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority - to proposed amendments to their Combination Schemes, which would allow the relevant Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) for their areas to sit on the FRAs with voting rights where the FRA agrees to such a request from the PCC. 2. It comprises: Summary (page 1) Introduction (page 4) Government’s policy on enabling closer working between the emergency services (page 6) Cleveland Fire Authority (page 7) Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority (page 15). SUMMARY 3. The Government’s policy is to foster closer collaborative working between PCCs and local fire and rescue services. One way of doing this is to enable PCCs to take part in discussions and decisions of FRAs in a meaningful and effective way. The Policing and Crime Act 2017 therefore amends various pieces of legislation to enable PCCs to be represented on their local FRA (and/or its committees), with voting rights, subject to the consent of the FRA. Under the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004 Combined FRAs must have their combination schemes amended before the “representation model” can apply. The 2004 Act provides that where the Secretary of State wishes to make amendments to a combination scheme, a period of formal consultation is required; and where a FRA does not agree to the proposed amendments and the Government, having considered the authority’s views, wishes to proceed, it is then under a duty to hold an inquiry.

Westbury History
From: Wiltshire County Council Website 2/27/09 Westbury in 1773 Thumbnail History: The ancient parish of Westbury was one of the largest in Wiltshire. Its 10,000 acres ran from Heywood to Dilton and from Chapmanslade to Bratton. The town was located in the centre. It lies on the exposed edge of the Upper Greensand strata which runs underneath the chalk uplands of Salisbury Plain. The rising of several springs, notably Bitham and Wellhead, provides a good supply of water and influenced the location of the settlement here. The earliest artefacts found in Westbury have been stray finds, near Matravers School, in Station Road and at the Ham from the Stone Age (4,000‐1,800 B.C.). They suggest transient movement rather than permanent occupation and may have been as a result of woodland clearance for animal grazing. Evidence of occupation sites from the Iron Age and Romano‐British periods (600 B.C.‐440 A.D.), such as a pottery kiln site at Wellhead, used by the Saxons, villa sites at Chalcot and Storridge plus many finds at the Ham and burials at Bitham Park, all surround the town itself which remains something of an archaeological ‘black hole’ for the pre‐Saxon period. An important early route ran along the spring line in King Chalcot, Short Street, Wellhead and Bratton (near the A3098 and B3098). Another went from Wellhead to Storridge along the route of the present Eden Vale Road and Station Road. A way from Bratton Hill fort to the Ham along Beggars Knoll into Newtown appears to take a sharp bend in Alfred Street before reappearing the other side of West End, represented now by a series of footpaths running parallel to the east of Station Road joining it near the Avoiding line bridge.

Wiltshire Council Submission on Council Size
Electoral Review Wiltshire Council Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) Preliminary Stage - Council Size - March 2018 1 Electoral Review Summary 1. That a council size of 99 members be submitted to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (“The Commission). This number is considered to be the most appropriate to enable Wiltshire Council (“The Council”) to provide effective and convenient local government within Wiltshire, taking into account the Council’s governance arrangements, its regulatory and scrutiny functions and the representational role of councillors, in particular in relation to the community area system and the increasing devolution of executive decision making to Area Boards. Introduction 2. On 15 September 2017 the Commission informed the Council of its intention to carry out an electoral review in its 2018/19 work programme. 3. This was because, as of 1 December 2016, 25 of the 98 electoral divisions in Wiltshire had a variance from the average division greater than 10% and 2 had a variance of more than 30%. The last review of Wiltshire Council by the Commission was in 2008 in preparation for the first unitary elections in 2009. 4. The aim of the preliminary stage of the electoral review is to determine the total number of councillors to be elected to the Council from the next elections in 2021. The figure will be determined after considering the governance arrangements of the Council, its scrutiny function, and the representational role of councillors in the local community, and consideration of the total number of councillors needed to most effectively take decisions, hold decision makers to account, discharge responsibilities and effectively represent local groups and people.

This page is intentionally left blank Agenda Item 3 Appendix 1 Learning from Other Council Mergers Case Study: Wiltshire In December 2007 the government announced that five county areas would become unitary in 2009 – Wiltshire, Cornwall, Shropshire, Northumberland and Durham. The Wiltshire merger is cited as one of the most successful unitary initiatives in the UK, achieved on time and under budget, and gaining a glowing report from DCLG. It is the successor authority to Wiltshire County Council (1889–2009) and four district councils— Kennet, North Wiltshire, Salisbury, and West Wiltshire—all of which had been created in 1973 and were abolished in 2009 when Wiltshire Council was created. Wiltshire has a population of c. 435,000 who are represented by 98 Councillors (majority Conservative). In December 2007, the Government approved a bid from Wiltshire County Council for a unitary council to take over the responsibilities for all local government services in those areas in Wiltshire currently served by four district councils and the county council. A Statutory Instrument was subsequently approved by Parliament on 25 February 2008, establishing a new Wiltshire unitary authority from 1 April 2009.
