    1 AGENDA lTEM No, NORTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL INFORMATION FOR APPLICANTS CHIEF OFFICER POSTS - MARCH 1999 North Lanarkshire stretches from Stepps to Harthill, from the Kilsyth Hills to the Clyde and includes, Airdrie, Bellshill, Coatbridge, Cumbernauld, Kilsyth, Motherwell, Shotts and Wishaw. With a population of over 326,000 it is one of the largest of Scotland’s local authorities. The Council aims to be caring, open and efficient, developing and providing opportunities for its people and communities in partnership with them and with all who can help to achieve its aims. The Council is the largest non-city unitary authority in Scotland and geographically is a mix of urban settlements with a substantial rural hinterland. The Council comprises the former authorities of Motherwell District Council; Monklands District Council; Cumbernauld and Kilsyth District Council; parts of 0 Strathkelvin District Council and parts of Strathclyde Regional Council. Rationalisation in the traditional industries of steel, coal and heavy engineering with attendant problems of unemployment, social deprivation and dereliction has led to concerted measures to regenerate the area and new investment and development programmes have been significant in the regeneration process. Organisationally, the Council has recently approved a management structure which updates the existing sound foundation, which emphasises the integration of policies and services and is designed to reflect the Council’s ambitions concerning best value, social inclusion, environmental sustainability and partnership and service delivery to the area’s communities As a consequence of the Council’s approval of this new structure, the Council now wishes to appoint experienced managers to fill certain new chief officer posts as set out in the accompanying Job Outline.

  • Caithness County Council
    Caithness County Council RECORDS’ IDENTITY STATEMENT Reference number: CC Alternative reference number: Title: Caithness County Council Dates of creation: 1720-1975 Level of description: Fonds Extent: 10 bays of shelving Format: Mainly paper RECORDS’ CONTEXT Name of creators: Caithness County Council Administrative history: 1889-1930 County Councils were established under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889. They assumed the powers of the Commissioners of Supply, and of Parochial Boards, excluding those in Burghs, under the Public Health Acts. The County Councils also assumed the powers of the County Road Trusts, and as a consequence were obliged to appoint County Road Boards. Powers of the former Police Committees of the Commissioners were transferred to Standing Joint Committees, composed of County Councillors, Commissioners and the Sheriff of the county. They acted as the police committee of the counties - the executive bodies for the administration of police. The Act thus entrusted to the new County Councils most existing local government functions outwith the burghs except the poor law, education, mental health and licensing. Each county was divided into districts administered by a District Committee of County Councillors. Funded directly by the County Councils, the District Committees were responsible for roads, housing, water supply and public health. Nucleus: The Nuclear and Caithness Archive 1 Provision was also made for the creation of Special Districts to be responsible for the provision of services including water supply, drainage, lighting and scavenging. 1930-1975 The Local Government Act (Scotland) 1929 abolished the District Committees and Parish Councils and transferred their powers and duties to the County Councils and District Councils (see CC/6).

  • Lady Mary, Countess of Caithness, Interceding with Middleton for Permission to Remove Her Father’S Head
    Lady Mary, Countess of Caithness, interceding with Middleton for permission to remove her Father’s Head. PREFACE In collecting materials for “The Martyrs of the Bass,” published some time ago in a volume entitled “The Bass Rock,” it occurred to the author, from the various notices he met with of Ladies who were distinguished for their patriotic interest or sufferings in the cause of nonconformity, during the period of the Covenant, and particular- ly, during the period of the persecution, that sketches of the most eminent or best known of these ladies would be neither uninteresting nor unedifying. In undertaking such a work at this distance of time, he is aware of the disadvantage under which he labours, from the poverty of the materials at his disposal, compared with the more abundant store from which a contemporary writer might have executed the same task. He, however, flatters him- self that the materials which, with some industry, he has collected, are not unworthy of being brought to light; the more especially as the female biography of the days of the Covenant, and of the persecution, is a field which has been trodden by no preceding writer, and which may, therefore, be presumed to have something of the fresh- ness of novelty. The facts of these Lives have been gathered from a widely-scattered variety of authorities, both manuscript and printed. From the voluminous Manuscript Records of the Privy Council, deposited in her Majesty’s General Register House, Edinburgh, and from the Wodrow MSS., belonging to the Library of the Faculty of Advocates, Edinburgh, the author has derived much assistance.The former of these documents he was obligingly permitted to consult by William Pitt Dundas, Esq., Depute-Clerk of her Majesty’s Register House.

  • CLYDESDALE HORSES by Hunter Adair
    A GUIDE TO THE COUNTRYSIDE: CLYDESDALE HORSES by Hunter Adair Clydesdale Horses There are now many more Clydesdale horses returning to the farms in the north of England and Scotland. Some farmers are buying horses to work, or for breeding, or just to have them as a hobby and for showing. There are a few farmers, throughout the whole country, who have never changed or mechanised their farms over the last fifty years or so. They have continued to work the land with horses of various breeds. Some farmers still only use horses on their farms, a practice that has been going on for centuries. Some farmers partly mechanised their farms when the use of tractors spread on British farms during the first World War, when the Fordson played a major part.The story of the A young boy holding his Father’s tractor started in America in 1889. Clydesdale horse in the farmyard Farmers who kept both tractor and horses, either maintained the horses for breeding or for the less heavier jobs on the farm. It’s a glorious site while travelling through the countryside to see a pair of Clydesdale horses ploughing a stubble field followed by scores of sea gulls hunting for mice and worms. I have many memories helping with the working, feeding and cleaning out of Clydesdale horses and getting to know the temperament of each individual horse on the farm. Like dogs, cattle or sheep, each Clydesdale horse is very different and each have their own characteristics and peculiarities. Can you help me cross this field? A pair of Clydesdale horses should be able to plough about one acre of land a day starting from about 8 o’clock in the morning till about 4 o’clock in the afternoon.

    Political Change and Scottish Nationalism in Dundee 1973-2012 Thomas A W Stewart PhD Thesis University of Edinburgh 2019 Abstract Prior to the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish National Party’s strongest bastions of support were in rural areas. The sole exception was Dundee, where it has consistently enjoyed levels of support well ahead of the national average, first replacing the Conservatives as the city’s second party in the 1970s before overcoming Labour to become its leading force in the 2000s. Through this period it achieved Westminster representation between 1974 and 1987, and again since 2005, and had won both of its Scottish Parliamentary seats by 2007. This performance has been completely unmatched in any of the country’s other cities. Using a mixture of archival research, oral history interviews, the local press and memoires, this thesis seeks to explain the party’s record of success in Dundee. It will assess the extent to which the character of the city itself, its economy, demography, geography, history, and local media landscape, made Dundee especially prone to Nationalist politics. It will then address the more fundamental importance of the interaction of local political forces that were independent of the city’s nature through an examination of the ability of party machines, key individuals and political strategies to shape the city’s electoral landscape. The local SNP and its main rival throughout the period, the Labour Party, will be analysed in particular detail. The thesis will also take time to delve into the histories of the Conservatives, Liberals and Radical Left within the city and their influence on the fortunes of the SNP.

As a guarantee for what I state, I pledge myself that every piece, before being taken into stock, is subjected to a severe chemical test, which in ten seconds sets the matter at rest. I have commenced the Clothing with the fullest conviction that "what is worth doing is worth doing well," to accomplish which I shall leave " no stone untamed" to render my Establishment as much a " household word " ' for Gentlemen's Clothing as it has become for the ' Unique Shirt." I do not for a moment deny that Woaded Cloths are kept by other respectable Clothiers ; but I give the double assurance that no other is kept in my stock—a pre- caution that will, I have no doubt, ultimately serve my purpose as much as it must serve that of my Customers. Nearly 30 years' experience as a Tradesman has convinced " me of the hollowness of the Cheap" outcry ; and I do believe that most people, who, in an incautious moment, have been led away by the delusive temptation of buying ' cheap, have been experimentally taught that ' Cheapness" is not Economy.
