2018 Review of Parliamentary Constituencies Response by North 2018 Review of Parliamentary Constituencies Response by North West Leicestershire Labour Party to the Initial Proposals We welcome the opportunity to respond to your Initial Proposals and note that they propose a significant level of change for North West Leicestershire and neighbouring constituencies in Leicestershire. We recognise that the need for at least one constituency that crosses the Leicestershire/Nottinghamshire border presents some difficulties, but the Initial Proposals have addressed this by making more change than is necessary. We believe the Boundary Commission’s objectives could be better met by retaining the North West Leicestershire, Bosworth and Loughborough (apart from one ward) constituencies as they are now and forming a new Charnwood & Keyworth constituency based on the Initial Proposals’ Charnwood constituency. This arrangement better retains local ties between communities, reduces the amount of change and keeps alignment with local government boundaries. Proposals 1. North West Leicestershire is retained as it is now. The current arrangement works well for North West Leicestershire with the constituency being co-terminous with the local authority. The villages of Ibstock and Ellistown have much greater local ties with Coalville than either Market Bosworth or Hinckley. Similarly, Shepshed has greater local ties with Loughborough. 2. Bosworth constituency is retained as it is now, again minimising the change. The constituency boundaries are already largely co-terminous with the Hinckley & Bosworth local authority (Groby ward being the exception), a significant improvement over alignment in the Initial Proposals. 3. With the local ties between Shepshed and Loughborough being retained, this presents the opportunity to keep the Loughborough constituency largely as it is now. We are proposing that The Wolds ward is not included in the new Loughborough constituency in order to meet the statutory electoral range. The Wolds ward is the one ward in the current Loughborough constituency that is clearly of a different character than the remaining constituency. 4. Finally, we are proposing that the remaining wards from the Initial Proposals’ Loughborough & South Rushcliffe constituency and Charnwood constituency (plus East Goscote ward) form a new Charnwood & Keyworth constituency. The road communications for the new constituency based on the A46 are better than both Loughborough to Rushcliffe South and from the western to northern parts of the Charnwood constituencies in the Initial Proposals. A detailed breakdown of the proposed constituencies is shown overleaf.

Closing Date: 15th January 2017 www.leicestershire.gov.uk/ admissions Your Guide to Primary Education 2017-2018 WELCOME Welcome On behalf of Leicestershire County Council, I am pleased to welcome parents, carers and children to this year’s Your Guide to Primary Education for entry September 2017, and general admissions throughout the academic year 2017-18. The first time admissions outcomes for this year have been extremely pleasing. The Local Authority was able to secure preferred schools for over 97% of Leicestershire parents and carers, with 91% getting their first choice of school. Added to this the highest ever percentage of parents and carers, 96.1%, applied online. With this in mind I would like to invite parents and carers of children seeking first time admissions from September 2017 to start considering which school they would like their child to attend. It is important to understand that you must apply and that there is a closing date. The application process for primary school - first time admissions begins from1st June 2016 and closes 15th January 2017, and the recommended way to apply is through Leicestershire’s online application system. There are a few key steps to make the process more straightforward that I would like to advise parents and carers of, and would urge that you consider these carefully, these are: • To read this booklet and understand what you need to do; • That you visit schools on open days before making you final decision; • Consider how you will get your child to and from school; • That the best way to apply is online; • That you must apply by the closing date 15th January 2017.

  • Information Item
    MEMBERS' INFORMATION SERVICE Information Item From: THE DIRECTOR OF HIGHWAYS, TRANSPORTATION AND WASTE MANAGEMENT Circulated to: ALL MEMBERS OF THE COUNTY COUNCIL Date: 16 MAY 2008 ASSESSMENT SYSTEM FOR ‘REDUCING THE IMPACT OF TRAFFIC’ (RIOT) SCHEMES Purpose 1. To provide members with an overview of the assessment system for the prioritisation of schemes under the Local Transport Plan (LTP) objective of ‘Reducing the Impact of Traffic (RIOT) on communities’; and to advise on the outcomes of assessments undertaken to date. The Assessment System 2. The primary objective of the assessment system is to identify schemes which are likely to be effective in meeting the 12% speed reduction target of the LTP. The system uses set criteria by which schemes can be assessed and prioritised. These relate to: - initial assessment • the existing speed of traffic – average 85%ile speed from surveys (see paragraph 3 below) further assessment • traffic volume • the intensity of frontage development along the route • the number and type of community facilities 1 • the number of personal injury accidents 3. Requests for RIOT schemes are only further assessed when the average 85%ile speed of traffic is at or above the recommended enforcement limit set by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO); 10% + 2mph above the prevailing speed limit. e.g. a road subject to a 30mph speed limit would only be considered for a RIOT scheme if the average 85%ile speeds where at or above 35mph . The 85%ile indicates the speed at which 85% of the traffic using the road is either travelling at or below.
