    SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT Issued on behalf of The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland Not for Publication, Broadcast or use on Club Tapes before 0001 Hours on 26 May 2016 Recommendations for councillor numbers and wards submitted to Scottish Ministers The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland has submitted its recommendations on councillor numbers and wards for each of Scotland's 32 council areas to Scottish Ministers. These recommendations arise from the 5th Reviews of Local Government Electoral Arrangements which began in February 2014. The recommendations provide for 351 wards and 1219 councillors across Scotland, an overall decrease of 2 wards and 4 councillors relative to existing arrangements. Under the recommendations, representation of the electorate within council areas will be more evenly shared between councillors and across Scotland there will be greater equity in electoral representation. Ronnie Hinds, Chair of the Commission, said: "Today we have submitted to Scottish Ministers our recommendations for electoral arrangements which we believe are in the interests of effective and convenient local government across Scotland. These recommendations set out the number of councillors for each council area and the boundaries of the wards they will represent. We are grateful to councils and to the public who responded to our consultations over the last two years. Their input has been invaluable in shaping our proposals and while we must take account of our obligations under the legislation and consider the interests of the whole council area, we have been able to take on board many of the views expressed. The legislation which governs our reviews places equality of representation at the heart of what we do and we have delivered a set of recommendations that significantly improves electoral parity across Scotland and so provides for fairer local democracy and more effective local government ." 1 A summary of the recommendations for each council area is contained in the appendix to this release.

    OUTER HOUSE, COURT OF SESSION [2018] CSOH 121 A183/16 OPINION OF LORD UIST in the cause JULIE McANULTY Pursuer against SHEENA McCULLOCH Defender Pursuer: McBrearty QC, Ewen Campbell; Burness Paull LLP Defender: R W Dunlop QC, Pugh; Shoosmiths LLP 19 December 2018 Introduction [1] The pursuer in this action seeks an award of damages against the defender for alleged defamation. Both were at the material time activists in the Scottish National Party (SNP). The pursuer joined the SNP in September 2010 and was elected a councillor on North Lanarkshire Council in May 2012. The defender first joined the SNP (Baillieston and Uddingston Branch) as an associate member in 1967. She became the Parliamentary Assistant to Richard Lyle, Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for Bellshill and Uddingston, on 1 April 2015. The pursuer avers that she was defamed by the defender in an email dated 5 February 2016 sent by the defender to Ian McCann, the SNP’s compliance 2 manager, and copied to various other people within the SNP and that the email was copied by the defender or one of the recipients to the Daily Record, which published extracts from it in an article published by it on 8 February 2016 on the front page of the newspaper, and also on its website and its Twitter feed. [2] The contents of the email, as typed, were as follows: “CONFIDENTIAL – For The Attention of Ian McCann – Scottish National Party Compliance Manager Dear Ian Having read in the daily record (sic) the story on Julie McAnulty I wish to raise formally an incident of, what I consider, racism that involved Julie.

  • POLICY and RESOURCES Subject: SIXTH REVIEW of UNITED COMMITTEE KINGDOM PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES - REVISED PROPOSALS From: HEAD of CENTRAL SERVICES
    NORTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL To: POLICY AND RESOURCES Subject: SIXTH REVIEW OF UNITED COMMITTEE KINGDOM PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES - REVISED PROPOSALS From: HEAD OF CENTRAL SERVICES Date: 13 September 2012 Ref: JAFAL 1. Purpose of Report 1.1 On Thursday, 13 September 2012 the Boundary Commission for Scotland published its revised proposals for United Kingdom Parliamentary Constituencies for an eight week final public consultation period. This report advises the Committee of those revised proposals and makes recommendations on action in response to the final consultation. 2. Background 2.1 At its meeting on 1 December 201 1, the Committee noted the statutory requirement for a review of United Kingdom Parliamentary Constituencies, the initial proposals formulated by the Boundary Commission for Scotland and the consultation arrangements. The Committee then agreed to appoint a Working Group to give consideration to the initial proposals and, at its meeting on 15 December 2011, the Council noted the recommendations of the Working Group and approved, for submission, a consultation response. 2.2 At its meeting on 1 December 2011 the Committee noted also that, following the initial twelve week consultation period, the Boundary Commission for Scotland would publish on its website the representations received and the record of the public hearings and would invite written comments during a further period of four weeks. This was done and, at its meeting on 14 March 2012, the Council noted the consultation responses and approved a submission which, with the benefit of additional considerations arising from the consultation responses, adhered to the initial consultation submissions made by the Council. 2.3 Having considered all responses, the Boundary Commission for Scotland has now published revised proposals for an eight week final public consultation period.
