Introduction Flooding has become a major concern in the UK, particularly since the widespread summer floods of 2007, which flooded 55,000 properties and caused billions of pounds of damage; 13 people lost their lives and around 7,000 people had to be rescued (Pitt, 2008). The Environment Agency’s 2008 National Flood Risk Assessment shows there are currently 2.4 million properties at risk from fluvial and coastal flooding in England. A preliminary assessment of surface water flood risk suggests that one million of these properties are also susceptible to surface water flooding with a further 2.8 million properties susceptible to surface water flooding alone. Overall, around 5.2 million properties in England, or one in six properties, are at risk of flooding. The expected annual damages to residential and non-residential properties in England at risk of flooding from rivers and the sea is estimated at more than £1 billion. -

The Statistical Bias Against Unitary Counties
THE STATISTICAL BIAS AGAINST UNITARY COUNTIES How local government reorganisation has hidden deprivation and threatens to strip authorities of funding Steve Fothergill and Tony Gore Centre for Regional Economic and Social Research Sheffield Hallam University Final report October 2011 This report has been funded by Durham County Council. An additional input of Prof Fothergill’s time was provided by the Industrial Communities Alliance, the all-party association of local authorities in Britain’s industrial areas. 1 Contents Summary 1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE REPORT The nature of the problem The report 2. THE AVAILABILITY OF STATISTICS The authorities affected by reorganisation Review of published data Data availability: some conclusions 3. THE IMPACT ON THE MEASUREMENT OF DISADVANTAGE A working method Indices of Deprivation DWP benefits data The impact: an assessment 4. A SPECIAL CASE? The counter-argument The scale of the new unitary counties Why size matters Special case: an assessment 5. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS An unintended by-product of reorganisation Recommendations 2 Summary The reorganisation of local government in parts of England in 2009 has created a statistical anomaly. Whereas data for 36 former district councils is now being discontinued, figures continue to be produced for 201 districts within the surviving two-tier counties. This threatens to hide deprivation in the new unitary counties and, in turn, to erode the likelihood that some of these unitary counties will benefit from funding streams that target areas of disadvantage. This could develop into a major, on-going problem. It would be astonishing if, in the long run, statistics for local disadvantage did not continue to guide policy and funding even though current area-based initiatives are being run down. -

Electoral Registers Parliamentary Elections
Electoral Registers (Parliamentary Elections) Background to Electoral Registers Electoral registers are a useful source for local and family historians as they list persons eligible to vote in Parliamentary elections by their place of residence or address. Registers have been compiled annually since 1832. Until 1974, the registers were compiled for each Parliamentary Constituency or Division in the county. Thereafter, they were compiled by the Electoral Registration Officer for the appropriate District Council and the registers follow local authority, rather than Parliamentary boundaries. Northumberland Archives holds Electoral Registers for Northumberland and parts of North Tyneside (that previously formed part of the county of Northumberland). Please note that there can be gaps in the series and date coverage of the various constituencies can vary. For some places, electoral records have not survived at all and for others, for example Morpeth and Ashington, there are large gaps in the series. Registers for Parliamentary Boroughs on Tyneside (Newcastle, Wallsend and Tynemouth) are not held by Northumberland Archives. The boundaries of parliamentary divisions and constituencies have changed over the years. This has reflected the change in the franchise in order to produce fair representation. Part of this system was to create equal constituencies in terms of population size and abolishing university seats and seats for places that no longer existed. Therefore it is possible that a town moved between constituencies. Entitlement to vote was very limited throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Until the late nineteenth century, the qualification for voting was generally linked to ownership of land. In 1918 this qualification was removed, so that by 1969 the right to vote was granted to all men and women over the age of 18.
