Central Bedfordshire Council Central Bedfordshire Council CIL DLP BRIEFING NOTE 218 Prepared by DLP Planning Ltd July 2015 DLP Planning Ltd Bedford Bristol Cardiff Leeds London Milton Keynes Nottingham Rugby Sheffield Disclaimer DLP Consulting Group Ltd, and its constituent companies disclaims any responsibility to the client and others in respect of matters outside the scope of this Report. This Report has been prepared with reasonable skill, care and diligence, is the property of DLP Consulting Group, and is confidential to the client, DLP Consulting Group Ltd accepts no responsibility of whatsoever nature to third parties, to whom this report has been provided. Central Bedfordshire Council Executive Committee on the 31st March voted through the latest viability report recommending the CIL charging rates for residential and non-residential schemes in Central Bedfordshire. This sets out the draft charging schedule and Regulation 123 list to enable them to publish the document for consultation with a view to submission to the Secretary of State for Examination prior to formal adoption. In doing so Officers were given delegated powers to agree changes to the buffers and other minor changes, future exemptions and payment plan timeframes following consultation and Examination where necessary. Council has now published a Draft Charging Schedule and supporting documents for public th th consultation subject to approval of Full Council from the 13 July until the 24 August 2015. CIL charges are a fixed, non-negotiable and enforceable land development tax. The charges are based on the size of the proposed development or changes above that which exists and are expressed as a charge per square metre of net additional floor space created. The CIL Regulations 2010 (Amended in 2011 and 2012) set out the national requirements for CIL and th as of the 6 April 2015 Central Bedfordshire will be restricted to the number of infrastructure funding practices currently secured under S.106 legal agreements until CIL is formally adopted. Therefore, post Easter, S.106 agreements will be focussed on the specific mitigation required by site specific development, whereas CIL will act as a wider levy to address the broader impacts of development. The Regulation 123 List clarifies the types of infrastructure that will be secured by CIL. This list will be updated, as certain projects or priorities are met, or where circumstances change. Any review or change to this list would require further consultation at a local level. The preliminary draft Charging Schedule has been subject to previous consultation, whereby representations received challenged the rates as too high. As such the Council has re-commissioned a viability assessment to review the proposed charges. The revised schedule also now takes into consideration the important Sustainable Urban Extensions, which deliver their own infrastructure. The Charging Schedule identifies the maximum rate on the margin of what is viable to enable development allowing a 30% buffer. The schedule also includes a map which splits the District up into 4 separate charging areas. The draft charging Schedule outlines the following rates for residential development: . Less than 10 dwellings in Value Area A - £330/sqm . Other residential development in Value Area A - £130/sqm . Less than 10 dwellings in Value Area B - £245/sqm . Residential development in Value Area B - £75/sqm . Less than 10 dwellings or fewer in Value Area C - £135/sqm . Residential development in Value Area C - £40/sqm . Elderly Accommodation - £0/sqm . Residential Strategic Urban Extensions- £0/sqm The draft Charging Schedule outlines the following rates for non-residential development: . Out of centre convenience of below 280 sqm trading area £40/sqm . Larger convenience retail including supermarkets £85/sqm . Out of centre comparison retail/retail warehouse £50/sqm . All other uses including town centre retailing £0/sqm The Council has also revised its Planning Obligations Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). This is due to the existing documents (for the North and South) being tariff based, which as of the 6th April this year would restrict the amount of obligations the Council could draw upon. The CIL Regulations 2010 (as amended) prevent the pooling of S106 obligations towards an infrastructure project or ‘type’, where five or more such obligations have been entered into on or after 6 April 2010. To be clear, no more than five obligations can be pooled in order to deliver a ‘type’ or specific piece of infrastructure. Therefore the revised SPD will go out to consultation at the same time as the CIL Charging Schedule. The timetable moving forward is as follows: . Public Consultation (Regulation 16) 13th July – 24th August 2015 . Make any changes required – August/September 2015 . Submit to SOS – Autumn 2015 . Examination – Late 2015 .

These profiles provide a comprehensive analysis of public libraries data covering all the major topics collected in the CIPFAstats Public Libraries collection. This means that there should be something for everyone interested in the running of public library services. The analysis is simple and non-judgemental. You will not find any quartiles, traffic lights or subjective commentary. Instead the report seeks to visualise the data and to enable readers to draw their own conclusions. The "Executive Report" acts as a high level summary, but is also designed as an introduction to the whole report. Most readers will find reading through these pages helpful as an introduction to the style and logic of the more detailed pages. It is pleasing that DCMS have seen fit to commission these profiles for all English library authorities enabling local authorities and the public access to these reports without charge. This will aid everyone interested in public library services to ask informed questions and come up with informed proposals for how the services should be delivered in the future. We hope you find this report interesting and helpful.

  • BBC New Creatives 2020 – South East Frequently Asked Questions
    BBC New Creatives 2020 – South East Frequently Asked Questions Application Deadline: 17:00 Tuesday 23rd February 2021 When will applications open and close for Round 4b? Applications open on the 26th January 2021 and close on the 23rd February 2021 (17:00). Is it free to enter? Yes. Will I own my audio work? You, the Lead Creative will own the IP in the film, audio or interactive work and, after a ‘holdback’ period (between 3 months and 1 year, depending on whether the BBC broadcast your work), you will be able to share and promote it. Who is the Lead Creative? Lead Creatives are classified as the Writer, Producer and any other key person whose vision is being portrayed. Will I be paid? This is a talent development and training scheme, rather than a purely a commissioning scheme. All production costs come out of the budget for the film, including any artist fees. Allocation of funds will be a matter of discussion between you and your Producer. Why is it only for 16-30 years old? The project grants that fund the New Creatives opportunity are looking to address accepted challenges around diversity and entry points for younger people into the creative industries. And so, whilst this programme has a focus on giving opportunities to younger artists, there are many other schemes and funds available offered by Arts Council England and the BBC which have no age limit or are focused on other groups and demographics. Creatives looking for funding for digital focused projects are welcome to consider the Arts Council’s National Lottery Project Grants - an open funding scheme with opportunities for funding all year round.

Introduction The Government’s ambition is to deliver nationwide gigabit-capable broadband as soon as possible. We recognise that there is a need for government intervention in the parts of the country that are not commercially viable, this is why the Government has committed £5bn for the hardest to reach parts of the country, ensuring that all areas of the UK can benefit. This will be spent through a package of coordinated and mutually supportive interventions, collectively known as the UK Gigabit Programme. Connecting Cambridgeshire conducted an Open Market Review (OMR) for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough in December 2020. This OMR was then extended in February 2021 to include parts of Northamptonshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Rutland, Lincolnshire, Norfolk and Suffolk to understand from suppliers if there was any current or planned investment over the next three years in broadband infrastructure (Next Generation Access broadband, ultrafast and gigabit-capable).

  • 1 Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire Adults Safeguarding
    Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire Adults Safeguarding Board Safeguarding Adult Review regarding Ms A: Executive Summary Introduction 1.1 This paper provides an executive summary of the process and outcomes of a safeguarding adult review (SAR) regarding Ms A, an adult at risk, which was undertaken due to ‘concern that partner agencies could have worked more effectively to protect the adult’. There were concerns that Ms A had been at risk of neglect and modern slavery when she was an in-patient on a Mental Health Ward. There had been a prolonged multi-agency investigation process, which endeavoured to safeguard Ms A. The decision to arrange a SAR was taken, under section 44 of the Care Act 2014, by the Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire Adults Board at its meeting on 15th August 2015. 1.2 The Safeguarding Adult Review was requested following a recommendation from the closing Adult Protection Case Conference held on 5th June 2015, due to ‘the complexity of the case, communication difficulties between agencies and the outcome of the case for the individual’. At this Case Conference it had been concluded that neglect within a situation amounting to modern slavery had been substantiated. 1.3 The Safeguarding Adult Review Report regarding Ms A was presented to the Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire Adults Safeguarding Board on 8th November 2016, and the recommendations agreed. 1.4 The Safeguarding Adults Board, in accepting the report, concluded that, whilst Ms A’s circumstances had been far from ideal, and the outcome of her leaving the UK suddenly left agencies with a sense of unease, there was no evidence that any agency had failed Ms A and she had been safeguarded as far as had been possible throughout the period.

  • East Sussex, South Downs and Brighton & Hove, Local Aggregate
    East Sussex, South Downs and Brighton & Hove Local Aggregate Assessment December 2017 East Sussex, South Downs and Brighton & Hove, Local Aggregate Assessment, December 2017 NOTE In September 2017 East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and the South Downs National Park Authority commenced a Review of their Waste and Minerals Local Plan. This year's LAA has been drafted for consideration by SEEAWP before the end of the consultation period for the Call for Evidence and Sites. In addition, adoption of the LAA is planned before formal consideration of the responses to the Call for Evidence and Sites. It would not therefore be appropriate to pre-empt possible changes in aggregate supply in this document and so discussion of future demand and supply scenarios will not be included. These details will be assessed at the next stage of the Waste and Minerals Local Plan Review process in 2018.

Supply and demand of aggregates Land won Marine Dredged Aggregates Importation Secondary and recycled 5. Consideration of local circumstances 6. Conclusions 7. Responses received to consultation draft List of Abbreviations 2 1. Executive Summary 1.1 This is the first Local Aggregate Assessment for Medway, produced in line with the requirements set out in the National Planning Policy Framework and guidance on the Managed Aggregate Supply System. The Council has consulted with mineral planning authorities throughout the South East and neighbouring areas, industry representatives and other key stakeholders in the drafting of this report. This process included the plan being considered by the regional Aggregates Working Parties for South East England, London and the East of England. The Council is publishing the LAA as part of its Monitoring Report for 2012/2013. 1.2 The council has had regard to a range of data sources in compiling information on the demand for aggregates and supply options available. The annual aggregate monitoring produced by the Aggregates Working Party based on a survey of local operators has been a key source of data. Due to the size of Medway, and the limited number of minerals sites and wharves, there are a number of areas where it is not possible to publish information at the level of this individual minerals planning authority. This follows the agreements made with industry to respect commercial confidentiality. In some cases, it has been necessary to refer to information on a Kent and Medway basis, or the wider region, to provide an indication of trends in demand and supply.
