The net cost of the services is showing an under spend of £378,797 (13.8%). Although the Directorate is showing a significant underspend it is important that this is maintained for the rest of this financial year. The Council’s current projected 2017/18 surplus (approx. £988k) is based on the forecast outturns for all Directorates. The importance of having this surplus was outlined at the Special Corporate Services Committee in December as a significant part of it has been allocated to future years to help reduce future rates increases (additional MRP holiday). If the Council’s 2017/18 surplus is significantly lower it will have to reduce the amount set aside for future years which will have an adverse effect on rates increases for those years. Explanation of Variance In addition, a Budgetary Control Report by Income and Expenditure for Regeneration and Development is, also, shown on page 3 which analyses the overall favourable variance (£378,797) by expenditure (£327,190 favourable) and income (£51,608 favourable). Page 1 of 3 Unclassified Regeneration & Development Expenditure - £327.2k (10.4%) better than budget to date. This favourable variance is mainly made up of the following: - 1. RDP HQ - £29.7k favourable as a result of a vacant post (£13.2k) and consultancy (£14k). The 2017/18 budget included consultancy for a feasibility study for Exploris Phase 2. This will not be undertaken this year and is now budgeted for 2018/19. 2. Regeneration - £104.2k favourable. This favourable variance is explained by- a. Payroll £79.4k favourable due to vacancies in Urban Development (£18.4k), Rural Development (£20.7k) and Craft Development (£28.5k). The Rural Development post was filled in late November. b. Public Realm revenue costs are currently £10.4k under budget. c. Rural Development Programme running costs are £6.3k under budget to date – see 5b below. 3. Economic Development - £31.7k favourable. This favourable variance is explained by: - a. Payroll £31.0k favourable. There are 2 vacant posts within Economic Development. One is currently being recruited with the other expected to be filled in early 2018. 4. Tourism - £161.6k favourable. This favourable variance is explained by: - a. Payroll £132.5k favourable. A number of vacant posts in Events and Tourism Development are in the process of being filled. b. Events such as the Comber Earlies Food Festival (£5.1k), Summer Entertainment (£6.2k), Easter (£8.8k), Seapark Fireworks Display (£9.2k) and Seafood Festival (£5.4k) are currently £34.7k under budget. c. Donaghadee Lights Up is currently £13.2k over budget due to additional Health & Safety requirements which weren’t budgeted for. Income - £51.6k (13.1%) better than budget to date. This favourable variance is mainly made up of the following: - 5. Regeneration - £35.4k favourable. This is mainly due to: - a. Revitalisation grants are £44.7k favourable as these are in respect of the 2016/17 year and, as the programme ended in 2016/17, there is no income budget for this year. b. Rural Programme grant is £12.2k worse than budget to date but this is offset a similar reduction in running costs – see 2c above. 6. Tourism - £10.0k favourable. a. Income from a range of Council events is currently £12.3k better than budget.

Running alongside and connected at key gateways to high speed internet, Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) will be an enabler of monitoring and data gathering for many businesses in the near future. An experimental network in London has led to the UK government planning further expansion. In June 2017, Digital Catapult was awarded funding from Innovate UK for its bid to expand the Things Connected network to cover up to five additional large-scale regional network deployments. A consortium led by Ulster University, Invest NI, Tourism NI and Local Councils across Northern Ireland has been successful in bidding to be one of the funded networks. It is intended for the prototyping of new products and services that can benefit from the unique features of LPWAN. Page 1 of 4 Unclassified What is The Digital Catapult? The Digital Catapult is a UK government funded initiative which focuses on the Digital sector and funds initiatives to build capability and capacity to assist in growing this business sector. What is the Purpose of the Fund? The fund seeks to accelerate the demand and innovation of industrial Internet of Things (IoT) with the adoption of the low power wide area networks (LPWAN/LoRA) which are emerging as potentially very powerful for business growth. This fund will lower the barrier to access for this new technology and create opportunities for innovative businesses to develop. The fund will focus on setting up a regional network, providing access to the network, stimulating interest in the business opportunities a network brings, and educating SME’s on the potential of IoT to their businesses and providing solutions to challenges that Councils along with businesses identify as well as benefitting from the data that the devices can generate. What is LPWAN? At its simplest level, the technology provides a means of inexpensive secure long distance communication between a sensor which is based in the community and the owner of the sensor. The communication requires very little power so a sensor may have a battery attached which is sufficient for the life of a device. The sensor could be measuring temperature, humidity, location, movement, air quality, or many other pieces of data. The data can be passed back to a server via the internet and presented to a decision maker with other similar pieces of data. Businesses are exploring new solutions with this inexpensive data collection to monitor tourism, improve agriculture, streamline health service delivery, improve service delivery, and drive up operational efficiency.

  • 1951 Census Down County Report
    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch, 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7* 6d NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Government of Northern Irel&nd was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of more limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid-night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious pro­ fession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.
