  • BCS Paper 2017/74 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Draft
    Boundary Commission for Scotland BCS Paper 2017/74 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Draft Revised Proposals for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas Action required 1. The Commission is invited to consider responses to the initial and secondary consultation on its Initial Proposals and whether it wishes to make changes to its proposals for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas. Background 2. These constituency designs are based on a UK electoral quota of 74,769.2 electors and parliamentary electorate figures from the December 2015 Electoral Register. The electorate of constituencies has to be within 5% of the electoral quota, namely no fewer than 71,031 and no more than 78,507, unless the area of a constituency exceeds 12,000 square kilometres. No constituency may exceed 13,000 square kilometres. 3. The total electorate in the 3 council areas is 307,418, giving a theoretical entitlement to 4.11 constituencies. It is possible, therefore, to design 4 constituencies, exactly covering the combined council areas, the electorates of which are within the limits set by the legislation. 4. The Commission's Initial Proposals for this area comprise 4 constituencies which exactly cover the combined extent of these 3 council areas. A map of the constituencies is at Appendix A.

    APPENDIX 1 PROPOSED KILPATRICK HILLS LOCAL LANDSCAPE AREA – DRAFT STATEMENT OF IMPORTANCE September 2013 Contents 1. Introduction 2. Policy context 3. Background and study approach 4. Statement of Importance 4.1 Overview 4.2 Landscape Description 4.3 Proposed Local Landscape Area boundary 4.4 Landscape change 4.5 Other designations and interests 1. INTRODUCTION The Kilpatrick Hills are a range of hills north of the River Clyde stretching from Dumbarton and the Vale of Leven in the west to Strathblane in the east. The rugged upland landscape provides a stunning backdrop to the settlements which fringe them, including Balloch, Dumbarton, Bowling, Old Kilpatrick, Clydebank, Bearsden and Milngavie, creating a unique sense of place. To the north of the hills lies the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. The majority of the range is within West Dunbartonshire, although it extends into East Dunbartonshire and Stirling. In addition to the Kilpatrick Hills’ special landscape qualities, the area is home to an important habitat network and provides recreational opportunities for local communities. West Dunbartonshire Council and East Dunbartonshire Council propose to designate the Kilpatrick Hills as a Local Landscape Area (LLA) in their respective Local Development Plans. This document explains the reasons why the Kilpatrick Hills have been selected for this designation. It will provide the basis for Supplementary Guidance for the Kilpatrick Hills which will establish a framework for managing change and the protection and enhancement of the area’s special qualities. Figure 1 – The location of the Kilpatrick Hills within central Scotland 2 2. POLICY CONTEXT Scotland’s landscapes are recognised as a major asset, contributing to national, regional and local identities, adding to the quality of many people’s lives and providing attractive settings which help to promote social and economic development.

Recommendations 1.1 Council is invited to • Agree that the Chief Executive write to the Local Government Boundary Commission seeking a meeting to explore the possibility of the Commission broadening the scope of their current review to include rural wards of super sparsity. • Agree that the Council write to the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Local Government to highlight issues around the methodology used in boundary reviews and to make the case for additional flexibility over the number of members for rural wards. 2. Background 2.1 The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland and the Scottish Ministers are obliged, under section 28(2) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 to implement electoral arrangements in accordance with section 1 of the Local Governance (Scotland) Act 2004.

    Foreword LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL i Argyll and Bute is an incredibly diverse area with an outstanding natural environment, more inhabited islands than any other council in Scotland, miles of amazing coastline, small communities in remote rural areas and larger towns close to the central belt. The area is the second largest council area in Scotland and home to numerous award-winning businesses and services. The scale and diversity of our region presents great opportunities as well as major challenges in planning for the future development of the area. The Local Development Plan 2 plays a key role in promoting a successful future for Argyll and Bute by helping to deliver a prosperous and inclusive economy, safeguarding our environmental assets and planning for the future growth of our communities. In this time of economic uncertainty and faced with the challenges presented by climate change and a falling population, it is increasingly important for us to work together to achieve our shared objectives. Accordingly, the Proposed Local Development Plan 2 contains a strategy that is closely aligned to the Single Outcome Improvement Plan and with other key plans for the area. It sets out a land use framework for the next 10 years to promote, guide and manage development in Argyll and Bute. It also aims to support the delivery of new homes, create new employment opportunities and protect our natural and built environment through a suite of policies, proposals and deliverable development sites. The Proposed Local Development Plan 2 has been drawn up following a comprehensive engagement process with communities, developers, key government agencies and other stakeholders.

Detail Some relevant updates are provided below - The Motorhome and Informal Camping Survey went live at the beginning of February 2021. This was promoted through Argyll and Bute Council’s communication channels and by partners. Over 150 responses from throughout Argyll and Bute were received. There were a range of views and locations shared across the Argyll and Bute Council region, with varying experiences. Feedback came from local community organisations, representatives, landowners, as well as local companies that fit out motorhomes. Although the survey was focused on communities within Argyll and Bute we received feedback from out with the area too. A link to the survey can be found here Motorhome and Informal Camping Survey (argyll- bute.gov.uk). The survey data will have some operational value and will also help in future project work.
