  • Of Its Integrated Coastal Zone Management The
    Sustainable Development and Planning II, Vol. 1 475 The ‘Sefton Coast Partnership’: an overview of its integrated coastal zone management A. T. Worsley1, G. Lymbery2, C. A. Booth3, P. Wisse2 & V. J. C. Holden1 1Natural, Geographical and Applied Sciences, Edge Hill University, Ormskirk, Lancashire, U.K. 2Coastal Defence Unit, Ainsdale Discovery Centre Complex, Southport, Merseyside, U.K. 3Environmental and Analytical Sciences Division, Research Institute in Advanced Technologies (RIATec), The University of Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton, West Midlands, U.K. Abstract The Sefton Coast Partnership (SCP), based in Sefton, Merseyside, UK, is set within the context of and reported as an example of Integrated Coastal Zone Management. It has developed out of a well-established and successful Management Scheme and, since its inception, attempted with varying success to develop a ‘working partnership’ which has sustainable management at its heart and which is responsible for conservation and the needs of the local community. The history, function and structure of the SCP are described together with the problems that emerged as the partnership developed. Keywords: ICZM, partnership, sustainable management, Sefton. 1 Introduction The coastal zone is hugely significant in terms of sustainable management since this is where human activities affect and are inseparable from marine and terrestrial processes and environments both in developed countries and the Third World. Integrated management therefore requires a holistic, geographic approach and, in order to be successful, action at the local and regional level which is supported by the national government. This paper introduces the Sefton Coast Partnership as an example of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) in WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, Vol 84, © 2005 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3541 (on-line) 476 Sustainable Development and Planning II, Vol.

This work directly supports Sefton’s 2030 vision of a cleaner, greener and healthier Borough. Poor air quality has a negative impact on public health, with potentially serious consequences for individuals, families and communities. Identifying problem areas and ensuring that actions are taken to improve air quality forms an important element in protecting the health and wellbeing of Sefton’s residents. Air Quality in the Majority of Sefton is of a good standard, however, a small number of areas in the South of the Borough have been identified where additional targeted actions are likely to be required to bring about further air quality improvements.

Further to this correspondence we can confirm that we have closed your request as you have stated that is was not intended as a request for information made in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). We have a duty to provide advice and assistance in accordance with Section 16 of the FOIA. In our letter dated 8 October 2019 we relied on S43(2) of the FOIA to extend the statutory deadline for us to further conduct a public interest test on the information held for part of your request, the wording of this part of your request is below; I refer to Document 1.5 which concerns the Total Amount (£9.3m) that was awarded to Liverpool Council (with £23.4m and £2.7m being awarded to Sefton Council and Wirral Council of Merseyside respectively). Unfortunately the document had not disclosed to me the breakdown of £9.3m for each of the 5 schemes. Would you please disclose the breakdown of £9.3m for each of the 5 schemes in Liverpool, as requested in my FOI request of 22 December 2018, as this would facilitate Liverpool Council in their planning for a smooth transition and in the implementation of their Exit Plan for the 5 Regeneration Areas and especially the Welsh Streets area.
