SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT Issued on behalf of The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland Not for Publication, Broadcast or use on Club Tapes before 0001 Hours on 26 May 2016 Recommendations for councillor numbers and wards submitted to Scottish Ministers The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland has submitted its recommendations on councillor numbers and wards for each of Scotland's 32 council areas to Scottish Ministers. These recommendations arise from the 5th Reviews of Local Government Electoral Arrangements which began in February 2014. The recommendations provide for 351 wards and 1219 councillors across Scotland, an overall decrease of 2 wards and 4 councillors relative to existing arrangements. Under the recommendations, representation of the electorate within council areas will be more evenly shared between councillors and across Scotland there will be greater equity in electoral representation. Ronnie Hinds, Chair of the Commission, said: "Today we have submitted to Scottish Ministers our recommendations for electoral arrangements which we believe are in the interests of effective and convenient local government across Scotland. These recommendations set out the number of councillors for each council area and the boundaries of the wards they will represent. We are grateful to councils and to the public who responded to our consultations over the last two years. Their input has been invaluable in shaping our proposals and while we must take account of our obligations under the legislation and consider the interests of the whole council area, we have been able to take on board many of the views expressed. The legislation which governs our reviews places equality of representation at the heart of what we do and we have delivered a set of recommendations that significantly improves electoral parity across Scotland and so provides for fairer local democracy and more effective local government ." 1 A summary of the recommendations for each council area is contained in the appendix to this release.

Distances from Elgin Are Given by Land Transport. 4
1 2 3 • Distances from Elgin are given by land transport. 4 5 • Moray experienced population growth of 7.3% between 2001 and 2011, a rate of growth slightly below that of the Highlands and Islands and well above that of Scotland. Moray was the eighth fastest growing Local Authority area in Scotland in this period. • There was estimated population growth of 1.6% in Moray between 2011 and 2014, higher than the growth estimated in the Highlands and Islands (0.3%) and Scotland (1.0%). Mid-Year Estimates are, however, less robust than Census data. • Mid-2015 Population Estimates and revised Population Estimates for Mid-2012, Mid- 2013 and Mid-2014 will be released on the 28th April 2016. 6 • The population of Moray has grown by around 13.5% since 1981. 7 • Between 2001 and 2014, population change in Moray followed a similar pattern of growth to that of the Highlands and Islands overall, which was faster than that of Scotland. 8 • The population of Elgin increased by 11.3% over the thirteen year period due to very strong population growth in areas on its outskirts (surrounding rural datazones included in the settlement definition). 9 • In 2014, the age profile of Moray was similar to that of the Highlands and Islands, although slightly younger. • The military bases at Lossiemouth and Kinloss are likely to be a factor in Moray’s relatively young age profile. 10 • The “missing generation” of people aged 16-30 has been less of an issue in Moray than in the Highlands and Islands, and the proportion of the population aged 50 and over was smaller in 2014.

SWR Guidance for Bottlers and Producers
The Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009 The Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009 (SWR) came into force on 23 November 2009. They replaced the Scotch Whisky Act 1988 and the Scotch Whisky Order 1990. Whereas the previous legislation had only governed the way in which Scotch Whisky must be produced, the SWR also set out rules on how Scotch Whiskies must be labelled, packaged and advertised, as well as requiring Single Malt Scotch Whisky to be bottled in Scotland from 2012. The following guidance is aimed at assisting those producing and selling Scotch Whisky, and those designing labels, packaging and advertising, to comply with new law. Checklists are included where appropriate. This guidance covers only the main provisions of the law; the Regulations should be referred to for the full detail. The SWA’s Legal team is ready to assist with any questions. Contact details are provided at the end of this Guidance. Contents 1. Production of Scotch Whisky 3 2. Definitions of categories of Scotch Whisky 4 3. The only type of whisky may be produced in Scotland is Scotch Whisky 5 4. Passing Off 6 5. Export of Scotch Whisky in bulk 6 6. Labelling of Scotch Whisky 7 7. Distillery Names 8 8. Locality and regional geographical indications 9 9. Prohibition of the description “Pure Malt” 11 10. Maturation, age and distillation statements 11 11. Transitional periods regarding labelling, packaging and advertising 12 12. Verification of the authenticity of Scotch Whisky 12 13. Enforcement 13 Contact SWA Legal Team 13 2 The Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009 1.1 The SWR do not change the way that Scotch Whisky is produced.
