  • Cricket Report 2011 Overall It Was a Successful Season for Chorleywood
    Cricket Report 2011 Overall it was a successful season for Chorleywood CC, with a strong performance by the Saturday 1st XI in Division 1, the Saturday 2nd XI holding their ground in Division 5, and the Sunday 1st XI making it to the County Cup Quarter Finals. Saturday 3rd and 4th XIs achieved relatively comfortable mid-table finishes also. Additionally, it was particularly pleasing to see the way the club improved the way it went about its training in 2011, both at winter nets and throughout the season. It was not surprising that most of the players noted below were some of the hardest workers on the training track – reward for their efforts! Finally, a massive thank you to the six captains, the vice-captains and those who filled in to skipper the odd match (often at short notice). Also to those who helped track down the additional colt or three in the latter part of the week to ensure we were always able to put out six sides. Without these people the games of cricket we all get to enjoy simply wouldn’t be able to take place. I hope that the club can continue to improve both on and off the field in 2012. Saturday 1st XI – Rich Soulsby I don´t think I was alone in thinking that this would be a long, hard season for the first XI. Losing proven performers such as Michael Dunning, Alex Hodgkinson & Richard Hodgkinson was always going to be hard to replace, so to finish higher up the league in 4th position is a credit to everyone involved.

  • Cabinet Committees
    Published on The Institute for Government (https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk) Home > Whitehall Explained > Cabinet committees Cabinet committees What are cabinet committees? Cabinet committees are groups of ministers that can “take collective decisions that are binding across government”.[1] They are partly designed to reduce the burden on the full cabinet by allowing smaller groups of ministers to take decisions on specific policy areas. These committees have been around in some form since the early 20th century. The government can also create other types of ministerial committees. In June 2015, David Cameron introduced implementation taskforces, designed “to monitor and drive delivery of the government’s most important cross-cutting priorities”[2], although these were discontinued when Boris Johnson became prime minister in July 2019. In March 2020, Boris Johnson announced the creation of four new ‘implementation committees’[3] in response to the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic. These four committees focused on healthcare, the general public sector, economic and business, and international response. The four committees were chaired by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Michael Gove, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak and Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab respectively. Each committee chair fed into a daily ‘C-19 meeting’ of the prime minister, key ministers and senior officials, to discuss Covid-19. These ‘implementation committees’ were replaced by two new Covid-19 related cabinet committees in June 2020 – ‘COVID-19 Strategy’ and ‘COVID-19 Operations’. On 13 May 2020, the Cabinet Office also announced the creation of five new ‘roadmap taskforces’[4] – committees intended to help guide certain sectors of the UK economy out of the Covid-19 induced lockdown.
