  • Flood Risk Management Annual Report – March 2019
    Birmingham City Council Flood Risk Management Annual Report – March 2019 Flood Risk Management Annual Report Report of the Assistant Director Highways and Infrastructure - March 2019 1. Introduction A scrutiny review of Flood Risk Management and Response was published in June 2010. This set out 12 recommendations which were completed in 2010. In June 2010, The Flood and Water Management Act 2010 passed into law conveying new responsibilities and making Birmingham City Council a Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA). This report highlights progress in addressing these statutory responsibilities and provides an update on other flood risk management related issues. This report also provides an update into areas for improvement identified in the review of the May 2018 flooding conducted by members of the Sustainability & Transport O&S Committee on 19th July 2018. 2. Flood and Water Management Act Duties The following work has been undertaken to fulfil the LLFA duties under the Flood and Water Management Act. 2.1 Local Flood Risk Management Strategy The Local Flood Risk Management Strategy for Birmingham, October 2017 continues set out the objectives for managing local flood risk and the measures proposed to achieve those objectives. 2.2 Cooperation with other Flood Risk Management Authorities The LLFA continues to cooperate extensively with other risk management authorities (RMAs) at various levels as established in the 3 tiered flood risk management governance structure. 2.2.1 Strategic Flood Risk Management Board The Strategic Board last met in December 2017 and due to the loss of a number of Flood Risk Management staff it was not possible to convene a meeting during 2018.

  • Colmore Road Admission Registers 1921 – 1940
    KING’S HEATH LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETY History of Colmore Road Primary School C0MPILED BY MARGARET R. SHEPHERD £1.50 Occasional Paper 14 Colmore Road Admission Registers 1921 – 1940 There were three official books in every board school set up following the 1870 Education Act: the Log Book covering weekly events; the Class Register marked morning and afternoon; the Admission Register giving details of very child entering the school. As the allowance for the year partly depended on the number of children on roll and the number present day by day these last two were regularly inspected by a member of the board and the fact noted in the log book. Colmore Road Infant School began in January 1909 in Kings Heath House in the park and moved to the new premises in Colmore Road in April 1911. The building was taken over as a military hospital in 1915 and staff and pupils moved to join Kings Heath School until 1919. Colmore Road School as a military hospital it was an annexe of the First Southern Military Hospital (Birmingham University) and had 225 beds. The only register I saw began in 1921 and finished in 1940. It showed the child’s entry number which was kept even if the child left and returned; name in full; name and address of parent or guardian; date of birth; previous school if any; date of last attendance and reason for leaving if any. A child could be removed from the register if of age i.e. for the senior school; was dead; was unfit to attend; moved to another area, had been absent for four weeks with no information available.

The complainant has requested information about how the Council voted in a Business Improvement District (BID) ballot. The Council refused to provide the information, relying on sections: 44(1)(a) - prohibition on disclosure; 42 – legal professional privilege; and 40(2) – third party personal data, of the FOIA. 2. The Commissioner’s decision is that Birmingham City Council has correctly engaged sections 40(2) and 42 of the FOIA and the public interest rests with maintaining the exemption of the latter. She does not find that section 44(1)(a) is engaged. She also finds that the Council has breached section 10 of the FOIA by failing to respond to the request within 20 working days, and sections 1(1)(a) and (b) of the FOIA by failing to disclose information held falling within the scope of the request. 3. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Disclose all information withheld under section 44(1)(a) Issue a fresh response to the information contained within Annex A 4. The public authority must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
