HS2 Update 7 November 2014 the House of Lords Economic Affairs HS2 Update 7 November 2014 The House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee is currently hearing evidence on the economic case for HS2, and this week Councillor Martin Tett, Leader of Buckinghamshire County Council, presented evidence on behalf of 51m. This update provides further details on this, as well as a transport update and details of community support events currently planned. Transport update We are currently doing some transport modelling work in order to better understand the impact of the increased HGV movements and infrastructure changes to the Buckinghamshire road network. Once this work is complete we hope to discuss it with HS2 Ltd and share it with communities in order to inform petitioning points. By doing this work we can ensure that transport data is interpreted in a recognised, meaningful and substantive way. We will keep you updated on this and any future work. Select Committee visit to Buckinghamshire We have produced a separate communication about preparing for the Select Committee visit to Buckinghamshire. This has been distributed with this e-update. BBC Television Programme - ‘Inside out’ ‘Inside out’ (south) which investigates issues in different regions will feature the HS2 debate on Monday 10 November at 7.30pm. The film crew attend the Buckinghamshire Councils’ HS2 Summit held on 8 October, and interviewed a number of speakers. The programme will also be available on BBC IPlayer, and further information can be found here. Response to study on the health impacts of HS2 We have previously mentioned the study looking at the Health and Wellbeing impacts of HS2 in the Chilterns AONB (available here). In July, Cheryl Gillan MP sent this study to Jeremey Hunt MP (Secretary of State for health), Sir David Higgins (Executive Chairman of HS2), Robert Goodwill MP and Patrick McLoughlin (Secretary of State for Transport). The responses to these will be on the news pages of our website shortly (here). HS2 Select Committee update Since our last update a number of key petitioners have presented to the Select Committee. These include Warwickshire County Council, North Warwickshire Borough Council and HS2 Action Alliance. Warwickshire County Council led on a number of key ecological issues, and during discussions HS2 Ltd has now agreed to carry out further ecological studies, which will be incorporated into an environmental statement addendum. We do not expect this to be available until early next year. The most up to date timetable which outlines appearances until the 5 January can be found here. This includes HS2 Action Alliance appearing on compensation; Stop HS2; a visit to HS1; and Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council. Petitions from Warwick District, Stratford-on 1 Avon District and Coventry will be heard from 5 January onwards. As we mentioned several weeks ago, the HS2 Select Committee Chairman said, following the site visit to South Northamptonshire on 27 October, that “We will then have visited all parts of the line as far south as the borders with Buckinghamshire and will probably not make further visits until after next spring” (full transcript here). Site visits take place before any petitioners from that area are heard. However, it is important to remember that the agenda is subject to change. Inquiry into the economic case for HS2 Throughout October, November and December the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee will hear evidence on the economic case for HS2. On the 4 November, Councillor Martin Tett appeared on behalf of 51m Alliance of Councils and raised issues such as the lack of demand for this route, and alternative proposals. Further information can be found here, and the evidence submitted can be found here. HS2 event in South Northants South Northamptonshire Council has organised an event for all petitioners, led by Parliamentary Agent, Alastair Lewis. Alastair will lead a presentation covering the Select Committee process and procedures, and provide an insight into proceeding dates. He will also discuss presenting to the Committee and appropriate evidence to use, we imagine this may be similar to the presentation Alastair gave at our HS2 Summit. The event will take place on November 12 between 5.15pm and 7pm. For further details and to reserve a place please email [email protected]. HS2 local area meetings Here is a reminder of the dates, times and locations of the the next round of local area meetings. These will focus specifically on collecting evidence, preparing evidence and presenting to the Select Committee. Therefore if you are not planning to appear before the Select Committee or to be involved in evidence preparation, you may not want to attend these events. The table below outlines details for each meeting. Registration is essential so we know how many people to expect. Please email [email protected] to book your place. CFA Date Time Venue 12 26th November 6.30pm Quainton memorial hall 11 27th November 6.30pm County Hall, Aylesbury 10 2nd December 6.30pm St Anne’s Hall, Wendover 9 3rd December 2.30pm Ballinger War Memorial Hall , Ballinger 9 3rd December 6pm Common, Ballinger 7 and 8 4th December 6.30pm Amersham Community Centre 13 and14 10th December 6.30pm Botolph Claydon Village Hall We are also planning ‘drop-in’ sessions with members of the HS2 Project team, an ‘Introduction to HS2’ series and other events so hopefully over the next few months there will be something to suit everyone. 2 Buckinghamshire Compensation and Mitigation Panel (BCMP) As we committed to at the Summit, we will use this Panel of local representatives to channel information specifically co-ordination of our appearances as well as ensuring local input on how we present evidence and our ‘asks’. The next BCMP is proposed for 1st December at 12noon. Thank you to those who have responded to our request for local representatives, we will email to confirm the list of attendees and circulate an agenda to this group. Buckinghamshire County Council – Budget Consultation Lastly, you all play such a key role in your communities that I would urge you to input your views on Buckinghamshire County Council’s budget consultation. The deadline for comments is 9 November and involves a short 10 minute survey. Please click here to complete the survey.

  • Holders of Ministerial Office in the Conservative Governments 1979-1997
    Holders of Ministerial Office in the Conservative Governments 1979-1997 Parliamentary Information List Standard Note: SN/PC/04657 Last updated: 11 March 2008 Author: Department of Information Services All efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy of this data. Nevertheless the complexity of Ministerial appointments, changes in the machinery of government and the very large number of Ministerial changes between 1979 and 1997 mean that there may be some omissions from this list. Where an individual was a Minister at the time of the May 1997 general election the end of his/her term of office has been given as 2 May. Finally, where possible the exact dates of service have been given although when this information was unavailable only the month is given. The Parliamentary Information List series covers various topics relating to Parliament; they include Bills, Committees, Constitution, Debates, Divisions, The House of Commons, Parliament and procedure. Also available: Research papers – impartial briefings on major bills and other topics of public and parliamentary concern, available as printed documents and on the Intranet and Internet. Standard notes – a selection of less formal briefings, often produced in response to frequently asked questions, are accessible via the Internet. Guides to Parliament – The House of Commons Information Office answers enquiries on the work, history and membership of the House of Commons. It also produces a range of publications about the House which are available for free in hard copy on request Education web site – a web site for children and schools with information and activities about Parliament. Any comments or corrections to the lists would be gratefully received and should be sent to: Parliamentary Information Lists Editor, Parliament & Constitution Centre, House of Commons, London SW1A OAA.

  • MEMO+ New UK Parliament and Government
    May 2010 Minority Ethnic Matters Overview MEMO+ is an occasional series of briefing papers on topics of interest to minority ethnic communities in Scotland. Supported b y It is produced by the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities in partnership with the Black and Ethnic Minority Infrastructure in Scotland , and is supported by the Scottish Government. Briefing: The New UK Parliament and Government General Election Results The elections to the UK Parliament in May 2010 resulted in the Conservative Party having the largest number of seats although no single party has an overall majority. Number of MPs elected in each political party Conservative 306 Labour 258 Liberal Democrat 57 Democratic Unionist Party 8 SNP 6 Sinn Fein 5 Plaid Cymru 3 Social Democratic & Labour Party 3 Alliance Party 1 Green 1 Independent 1 One seat still has to be decided. This is because one of the candidates for Thirsk and Morton died after nominations closed. As a result, no voting took place in that constituency, and a by-election will be held on 27 May. Negotiations between the main parties have resulted in an agreement to form a Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition government, the first such agreement since 1945. The practicalities of this are not yet clear, but the Ministerial team includes MPs from both parties, and some policy compromises have already been announced. 1 MEMO+ The New UK Parliament and Government May 2010 How does the Parliament work? The Speaker The Speaker, who is elected from among their own number by the MPs themselves, chairs proceedings in the House of Commons.

  • 1 the Red House 10 Market Square Old Amersham Buckinghamshire
    The Red House 10 Market Square Old Amersham Buckinghamshire HP7 0DQ 22 November 2012 Rt Hon Patrick McLoughlin MP Department for Transport Great Minster House 76 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DR Dear Secretary of State, Re: Publication of information on the extent of generalised property blight from HS2 required for the public consultation on compensation I am writing to you concerning the information that you hold about the extent of generalised property blight resulting from HS2. As you will be aware, HS2 Action Alliance is a national group, with thousands of registered supporters across the country, campaigning against the current HS2 proposals and pushing for a fair deal on compensation. Many of our supporters are concerned about the information provided by the Government in the context of the current consultation on compensation. In order to make informed judgements about the schemes and their parameters, on which you are consulting, the public need to know the extent of property blight and hence the degree to which it is addressed by your proposals. Please could you therefore publish: (i) The results of your investigation and analysis of the extent of blight, ideally in the form of readily understood iso-loss contours on maps (showing the bands of specified levels of property value reduction, analogous to isobars for weather)? Blight is clearly not just determined by a measuring tape but affected by topography, ambient noise levels, as well as buyers long recognised aversion to being near to certain sorts of infrastructure. 1 (ii) Any reports or assessments undertaken by the Department for Transport, HS2 Limited or any consultant working for either body which measures the extent of generalised blight along the route of HS2.

  • Ministerial Selection and Portfolio Allocation in the Cameron Government
    This is a repository copy of Ministerial selection and portfolio allocation in the Cameron Government. White Rose Research Online URL for this paper: http://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/82698/ Version: Accepted Version Article: Ministerial Selection and Portfolio Allocation in the Cameron Government Dr Timothy Heppell Associate Professor of British Politics School of Politics and International Studies Introduction: The power to appoint and dismiss is one of the most important powers at the disposal of the UK Prime Minister (Allen and Ward, 2009, p. 238). It is through their powers of patronage that they shape, and reshape through reshuffles, their government. It is this power that gives them political leverage and ensures their dominance over their ministerial and party colleagues. All Prime Ministers ‘wield this instrument with strategic effect’ (Berlinski et al, 2012, p. 2). The rise of the career politician would appear to intensify the significance of this power (King, 1981, pp. 249-85) as ministerial office represents the ‘height of ambition’ for most contemporary parliamentarians (Berlinski et al, 2007, p. 245). Most of them ‘passionately want to be ministers’ and ‘if they are already ministers, they want to be promoted in the ministerial hierarchy’, and above all else ‘they certainly do not want to be demoted or dismisse identifying ministerial suitability does remove a significant proportion of the parliamentary party from consideration. An additional question to ask would be whether certain parliamentarians are unsuited to ministerial office for reasons other than competence. Some will have to be discounted due to the fact that their personal behaviour or political attitudes could make them a liability if a minister.

  • Cabinet Committee System
    CABINET COMMITTEE SYSTEM 1. Cabinet and Cabinet Committees are groups of Ministers that can take collective decisions that are binding across Government. The Cabinet is the supreme decision-making body in government, dealing with the big issues of the day and the Government’s overall strategy. Cabinet Committees reduce the burden on Cabinet by enabling collective decisions to be taken by a smaller group of Ministers. The composition and terms of reference of Coalition Cabinet Committees are a matter for the Prime Minister, in consultation with the Deputy Prime Minister. 2. The Coalition Committee is a formal Committee of Cabinet which meets to consider issues relating to the operation of the Coalition. It is co-chaired by The Prime Minister and The Deputy Prime Minister. 3. Each Committee has a Chair from one Party and a Deputy Chair from the other Party. The Chair and Deputy Chair have the right to remit an issue to the Coalition Committee if it affects the operation of the Coalition and cannot be resolved by the originating Committee. The use of this right will be kept to a minimum. 4. With the approval of the Chair (with the exception of those Committees requiring limited or specific attendance due to the nature of the discussion) Ministers are able to send a deputy from either their Department or their Party, as appropriate, to Committee meetings. 5. The Coalition Operation and Strategic Planning Group is a working group and is not a Cabinet Committee. It is co-chaired by the Minister of State – Cabinet Office and the Chief Secretary to the Treasury.
