  • In the Sri Lankan Conflict
    INTRODUCTORY NOTES The focus of this study is on ‘external interventions’ in the Sri Lankan conflict – those ostensibly intended to pressurise both the government of Sri Lanka as well as the LTTE to abandon violent confrontation and seek a negotiated settlement of the conflict. Such pressures on the government take several forms, applied with varying levels of intensity and insistence by the different countries with which Sri Lanka maintains close relations – advice and moral persuasion, economic aid being made conditional upon the resumption of ‘peace negotiations’, prohibitions on the sale of arms, providing lavish support to local NGOs that claim to be engaged in the ‘peace effort’, and, above all, threat of action as envisaged in the emerging doctrine of ‘Responsibility to Protect’ (‘R2P’) against alleged violations of human rights. To the LTTE, with its proclaimed adherence to the belief that terrorist violence is a legitimate instrumentality of ‘liberation struggles’, and ranking as it does among the most violent terrorist outfits in the world, the charge of human rights violations has remained largely inconsequential except where it is given concrete expression in sanctions and proscriptions. To the Sri Lanka government, being placed at par with the Tigers in accusations of human rights violation is, of course, a damning indictment and a humiliating diminution of status in the community of nations. During the period covered by this study (2006-2007), the secessionist campaign of the LTTE suffered major setbacks, exacerbating its earlier losses caused by the Tsunami and the ‘Karuna revolt’. The period has also been featured by an extraordinarily sharp upsurge of external “humanitarian intervention” in the Sri Lankan conflict, the intensity of which has had a remarkable correspondence with the tenor and tempo of LTTE failures.

  • CHASE Residents' Association
    CHASE Residents’ Association Via: www.chaseresidents.org.uk CHASE Residents’ Association submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on proposed changes to ward boundaries within the London Borough of Croydon We wish to draw the Commission’s attention to difficulties that would be posed by putting into practice draft recommendations for changes to ward boundaries within the Addiscombe area of Croydon Central. We propose an alternative re-drawing of boundaries, a position we believe is in keeping with the views of a number of neighbouring residents’ associations and individuals. Established communities The notional boundaries of the “community” of Addiscombe are distinct from the present electoral ward of Addiscombe in that the community includes a sizeable part of the present Ashburton Ward. Addiscombe Road forms the southern boundary, in both electoral and community terms, for both wards. Residents of Fairfield Ward to the south do not identify with the community of Addiscombe. Within the current electoral wards of Addiscombe and Ashburton there is a more distinct community-based division between: • The western end, where residents living near East Croydon Station gravitate towards shops, schools, churches and facilities in the area between Cherry Orchard Road and Clyde Road. • The eastern side, where the Lower Addiscombe Road is the main district centre serving a community extending from east of Ashburton Park to Elgin Road to the west. Difficulties presented by the proposed boundaries Creating the proposed new wards of Addiscombe West & Park Hill and Addiscombe East by imposing an arbitrary border between Addiscombe/Ashburton and extending these wards south of Addiscombe Road would include areas with no natural affinity with Addiscombe.

  • Subject: Questions to the Mayor Report Number: 4 Report To: London Assembly Date: 23/05/07 Report Of: Director of Secretariat
    Subject: Questions to the Mayor Report number: 4 Report to: London Assembly Date: 23/05/07 Report of: Director Of Secretariat Renewable Energy at the Olympics Question No: 856 / 2007 Darren Johnson Is it correct to conclude from your answer to MQT 656/2007 that 20% of the energy demand during the Olympic Games in 2012 will be provided from on-site renewable energy, and that London Array and other off-site renewables will not count towards this 20%? Response from the Mayor The ODA Sustainable Development Strategy sets out the objective for providing 20 per cent of immediate post Games Park and Village energy demand from on-site renewable sources. This will be achieved through on-site renewable sources. The London Array and other off site renewable sources will not count towards that target. Annual CO2 Reduction Targets Question No: 857 / 2007 Darren Johnson Following your Climate Change Action Plan, will you set annual targets for CO2 reductions in London? Response from the Mayor My Climate Change Action Plan set an overall carbon reduction target of 60% by 2025. As I set out when launching the Plan, this implies a reduction of 4% a year. Clearly we will not achieve emissions reductions in a totally linear fashion, but we will aim to reach this leve of cuts each year. I have also undertaken to report annually on progress with the Plan, and will include within this information about CO2 emissions as well as details of implementation programmes. ODA Sustainability Policies Oral Question No: 858 / 2007 answer Darren Johnson In response to question 374/2007 you expressed concern regarding ODA sustainability policies “particularly on waste, water, timber and procurement issues”.

  • Cllr Godfrey
    Culture, Leisure and Sport Cabinet Member Bulletin Councillor Timothy Godfrey January 2018 Latest News Live Well Croydon The Live Well Croydon Programme is making great headway in supporting Croydon residents towards improving healthy lifestyles, whether it’s signposting people to local opportunities to increase physical activity, provide motivation for those who wish to give up smoking or lose weight or improve mental health and wellbeing; our team of Live Well Advisors have so far provided initial consultations to just over 260 residents. The initial consultation is the first stage of the 12 month behaviour change journey and we are now seeing a number of residents moving onto the next 3 month review stage. As can be seen below, residents are achieving some very positive results from engaging in Live Well Croydon as they work towards their longer term health goals: Mr B – now a non-smoker at 3 months, has increased physical activity levels and improvement in mental wellbeing score. Miss J - 7kg weight loss at 3 month review, reduction in high fat foods and fried foods within her diet; improved mental health and wellbeing. Mr N - reduced calorie intake by 800 calories a day by making small swaps and increased his exercise from under 30 minutes a day to nearly 90 minutes. More information about the Live Well Croydon Programme and healthy lifestyle information, advice and support can be found via: https://www.justbecroydon.org/ Get Active Wandle Get Active Wandle moves into year 3 in January and is continuing to deliver positive outcomes for Croydon.
