Whilst it has taken several years to achieve this goal, the adoption of the Waste Local Plan is a landmark for the Liverpool City Region in terms of partnership working, and one which is endorsed by Liverpool Foreword City Region Cabinet. The Liverpool City Region is diverse and dynamic both in terms of its population and its global aspirations. The districts continue to build on the opportunities which exist for improved waste and resource management. The Waste Local Plan provides the conditions to enable these opportunities to be delivered through the development of a network of sustainable waste management facilities, as a key part of the ambition of the Liverpool City Region to become a low carbon economy by 2027. The Plan provides the City Region with a clear direction for future waste management development to 2027, both in terms of site allocations and detailed development management policies. It forms part of statutory development plans for each of the partner districts. The Plan has been through several comprehensive public consultations which achieved significant community and stakeholder involvement. We would like to thank everybody who has been involved.

The preparation of a Waste Local Plan (Waste LP) is the responsibility of all districts and will form an important part of their statutory District Local Introduction Development Frameworks (LDFs). 1 1.2 Preparation of the Waste LP began early in 2006 following Full Council approval to commence preparation of a joint LP from Knowsley, Liverpool, St.Helens, Sefton and Wirral Councils. In 2007, Halton Council also joined the Waste LP process, and this was accompanied by further Full Council resolutions. Figure 1.1 indicates the Waste LP plan area, showing the 6 participatory Districts in Merseyside and Halton. Figure 1.1 Waste Local Plan - Plan Area 8 Waste Local Plan 1 Introduction Glossary of Technical Terms This document contains some technical terms and abbreviations. Many of them are defined in the Glossary (Section 7). To assist readers in accessing these definitions, where terms are used which are defined in the Glossary, these are annotated with a super-script letter "G", eg : Habitats Regulations AssessmentG. 1.3 The Waste LP has taken account of the local visions identified in the Sustainable Community StrategiesG (SCSs) for each of the participating authorities and Local Strategic PartnershipsG (LSPs) which set out the long term plans for their individual communities. By taking account of those aspects of the SCSs that relate to waste and climate change, the Waste LP will contribute to the delivery of local vision of the areas individually and to the sub-region as a whole, through focused delivery of sustainable waste management. 1.4 The Waste LP has been through several rounds of public consultation before reaching the final stage, and has been approved by the six districts at each stage of the process. These are shown in the diagram below: Waste Local Plan Timeline Timeline for the Waste Local Plan March 2007. Issues

    NEW SHADOW CABINET 2020 Who’s In, Who’s Out? BRIEFING PAPER blackcountrychamber.co.uk Who’s in and Who’s out? Sir Keir Starmer, newly elected Leader of the UK Labour Party, set about building his first Shadow Cabinet, following his election win in the Labour Party leadership contest. In our parliamentary system, a cabinet reshuffle or shuffle is an informal term for an event that occurs when the head of a government or party rotates or changes the composition of ministers in their cabinet. The Shadow Cabinet is a function of the Westminster system consisting of a senior group of opposition spokespeople. It is the Shadow Cabinet’s responsibility to scrutinise the policies and actions of the government, as well as to offer alternative policies.

    CABINET MEMBER’S REPORT Councillor Committee Date Peter Dowd Cabinet Member 27 January 2011 Communities Safer Stronger Communities (November – December 2010) Community Payback Deployed weekly across the full Sefton region and managed by Strategy Support Officer. Main headlines for weekly work include: • removal of dog fouling and stencilling on Park Lane Estate (Netherton); • removal of fly tipped rubbish and litter removal from shops in Marion Square (Netherton); • Bowersdale Park clean up as part of a Xmas celebration in Linacre/ Derby; and • removal of dog fouling in Brooklands Avenue, Brookvale, Greenbank Cycleway and in Little Crosby. Work by the service has seen removal of over 200 bags of dog fouling and litter, 5.15 tonnes of fly tipping and undertaken 611 hours of unpaid work. Drug Action Team The Coalition Government's new drug strategy has now been published and it would appear that Sefton DAT is already delivering on all of its main priorities. Many DAT partnerships across the country will find delivering the new strategy something of a challenge but Sefton less so, because over the last 18 months we have transformed our treatment system from one that attempted to reduce the harm caused by drugs by initially stabilising addictions to one that ends them. Sefton's successful treatment rate for problematic drug users is now above both the regional and national average. Although the DAT is still preparing for an as yet unannounced cut in its budget, there is a commitment by all DAT partners to ensure that the work that supports this improved performance will continue in 2011/12.

    Mr Dwayne Johnson Director of Social Care and Health Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council 9th Floor, Merton House Stanley Road Bootle Merseyside L20 3JA Mr Peter Wong, CCG Chief Officer, South Sefton and Southport and Formby 02 March 2018, Dear Dwayne & Peter, Joint local area SEND inspection – Sefton I am taking a close interest in your progress with improving SEND services following the identification of significant concerns by Ofsted and CQC in the report published in January 2017. I am pleased to see evidence of strong progress with your Written Statement of Action over the last 12 months. I am encouraged by the commitment to joint working across partners, including with schools, to improve attainment of children and young people with SEND. I also note the strengthened joint commissioning arrangements, including a stronger Designated Clinical Officer (DCO) role; and a new performance management arrangement for key health services, which will help to improve the parity of access to services across the whole of Sefton. I am reassured that SEND services in Sefton are improving and grateful to you, your colleagues and partners, including schools and families, for the energy and commitment you are showing to continuing the progress you have made so far. It is important you continue to engage families to raise their satisfaction and confidence levels and that you continue to work across services to ensure an accurate picture of the combined needs of children and young people with SEND, to ensure adequate services in the local area. Finally, it is of course, crucial, to continue to measure the long-term impact of the improvements you are making on improving outcomes for children and young people with SEND and their families.
