  • Combined Authorities and Metro Mayors
    Combined Authorities and Metro Mayors What is a combined authority (CA)? A combined authority (CA) is a legal body set up using national legislation that enables a group of two or more councils to collaborate and take collective decisions across council boundaries. It is far more robust than an informal partnership or even a joint committee. The creation of a CA means that member councils can be more ambitious in their joint working and can take advantage of powers and resources devolved to them from national government. While established by Parliament, CAs are locally owned and have to be initiated and supported by the councils involved. 54 (17%) Number of local authorities (excluding the 33 London boroughs) with full membership of a combined authority 22% Percentage of population of England outside London living in a mayoral combined authority area Brief background to devolution and the combined authorities The idea of devolution has excited the imaginations of the political class for a long time even if the public has been less enthusiastic. The turnout rates for the May 2017 Metro Mayor 1 elections attest to this. Devolution was given a big push under New Labour but John Prescott’s North East Devolution Referendum 2004 was decisively rejected by the people (78% of voters were against). The idea was nevertheless pursued by the Coalition. Heseltine’s No Stone Unturned: In pursuit of growth 2012 report made a reasonable case for the concentration of funding streams and for these to be placed under local political control for greater efficiency and flexibility and to maximise effect.

  • Liverpool City Council: Representation
    Tony Reeves Chief Executive 24 May 2021 Catherine Frances Director General, Local Government, Strategy And Analysis Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF Dear Ms. Frances Liverpool City Council at its meeting on 19th May, considered the ‘Best Value’ Inspection Report undertaken by Max Caller, Mervyn Greer and Viviane Geary and your letter dated 24th March 2021 setting out the Secretary of State’s proposed intervention package for Liverpool. By unanimous agreement at Full Council, I have been instructed to send this letter outlining the council’s response, together with the detailed tables attached at Annex A. The Mayor and Leaders from all opposition parties are clear in their commitment to collectively leading the Council’s improvement journey and playing a full role in the design, implementation and monitoring of the Improvement Plan. The report acknowledges our openness and co-operation with the inspection team as they conducted their work and I would equally like to put on record, our thanks for their professionalism and subsequent ongoing support, as we develop our response to the report and improvement plans. As you will be aware, at our suggestion, we have consulted Max Caller on urgent property transactions. We are also doing so on the recruitment of a new City Solicitor and Monitoring Officer, resulting from the retirement of the current post holder. Max Caller has also been consulted on transitional arrangements for the Monitoring Officer position and either he or incoming Commissioners, will be involved in all further decisions leading up to the appointment of a new postholder.

  • Minutes of Virtual Zoom Meeting, 12:30 to 13:30, Friday 1St May
    Covid-19: Taking Stock - Assessing the urgent action needed to support the Care Sector, supply of PPE and more Non-Verbatim Minutes of Virtual Zoom Meeting, 12:30 to 13:30, Friday 1st May WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION Alison McGovern, Chair of the APPG gave a short introduction to the first ‘virtual’ Liverpool City Region (LCR) APPG meeting the group has had and stated it is important, and the right thing to do, to attempt to keep going with the meetings of the group at this important time. CONTRIBUTIONS FROM PANELLISTS Lynne Morris, UNISON Regional Manager began by explaining and outlining the Unison NW survey launched across the region, which over 2,700 care workers – from over 1,000 care settings including residential homes care homes and learning disabilities - completed. The survey found that two thirds of the care workers said that their employer was not doing enough to keep them or the people they cared for safe. 66% of the care workers surveyed said they were concerned about a lack of PPE and 78% said they were concerned about infecting the people that they actually cared for. Ms Morris said that in the Liverpool City Region specifically, there were examples of staff being told not to wear masks because it would scare some of the dementia residents and of staff having to buy their own PPE equipment, even when they were coming into contact with COVID-19 cases. Additionally, the survey found that 8 out of 10 workers stated they would not be paid their full wages if they became ill or if they needed to self-isolate; instead they would get statutory sick pay of £95 a week, which is inadequate to support them and their families.

  • Cuban Doctors Add Another Four British Nobel Nominations
    Cuban doctors add another four British Nobel nominations London, December 31 (RHC)-- The international campaign to recognize Cuban doctors of the Henry Reeve brigade with the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize added on Thursday four other formal nominations in the United Kingdom. Members of the British Parliament Paula Barker, Ian Byrne, Dan Carden, and Kim Johnson, representing different electoral districts of the English city of Liverpool, made the nomination, the Campaign for Solidarity with Cuba (CSC), Rob Miller, informed Prensa Latina. According to the activist, the Norwegian committee in charge of awarding the Nobel Peace Prize confirmed to each of the legislators the receipt of formal nominations, bringing the number of applications submitted by British parliamentarians to 16. In their letters to support the proposal, the four members of the House of Commons agreed to highlight the humanitarian aid provided by the Henry Reeve brigade members in countries affected by natural disasters and epidemics such as Covid-19 The Cuban health workers who make up this brigade voluntarily demonstrate selfless humanitarianism in the face of health emergencies and natural disasters and provide assistance regardless of political borders, Johnson said. Carden, one of the lawmakers, highlighted that doctors from the Caribbean island have worked in 39 countries during the Covid-19 pandemic, which shows, he said, what can be achieved when working in a spirit of cooperation, peace, and solidarity. For his part, Byrne considered that the internationalism and humanitarianism shown by the Henry Reeve brigade members deserve to be recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize. At the same time, his colleague Barker assured the Norwegian committee that the world has much to learn from Cuba in terms of medical cooperation and health professionals' training.
