  • Total Sickness Benefit Data – Figures 1-9 Updated from Glasgow Profile
    Scottish Observatory for Work and Health University of Glasgow Health-related Worklessness in Scotland Profile June 2011 Judith Brown Joel Smith David Webster James Arnott Ivan Turok Ewan Macdonald Richard Mitchell Contact: Judith Brown Public Health & Health Policy 1 Lilybank Gardens University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8RZ [email protected] 1 Summary & Key Findings Health-related worklessness in Scotland Profile 1. This profile provides detailed information on total sickness-related benefit claimants (incapacity benefit, IB and Employment Support Allowance, ESA claimants) from 2000 to 2009, ESA claimants from 2009 and ESA claimants by medical condition for 2010 (broken down by age, duration of claim, stage of claim and ethnicity). 2. The profile contains data for Scotland, Glasgow City, North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, East Dunbartonshire, East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde, Renfrewshire, West Dunbartonshire. 3. The percent of the working age population (WAP) claiming IB in Glasgow City decreased from 18.8% in 2000 to 14.4% by 2007. Following the introduction of ESA in October 2008, the WAP in receipt of total sickness-related benefit has continued to follow the general linear decline observed for IB but the rate is not falling as steeply. By 2009, 13.5% of the WAP in Glasgow were claiming sickness benefit compared to 9.1% in Scotland. Similar trends are observed in the other geographies. 4. The rate of on flow decreased in Scotland and Glasgow City prior to the introduction of ESA. From 2008 there have been small increases in IB/ESA on flow rates. By 2009, total sickness benefit was in excess of the level observed for 2005 with the rate of on flow currently at 3.9% in Glasgow.

  • LGC-S5-19-EHS-21: South Lanarkshire Council
    LGC/S5/19/EHS/21 LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND COMMUNITIES COMMITTEE CALL FOR VIEWS ON EMPTY HOMES IN SCOTLAND SUBMISSION FROM SOUTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL 1. What in your view are the main causes of empty homes? As part of an Empty Homes Shared Service Pilot project with North Lanarkshire Council in 2014/15, the Council carried out a survey of long term properties using Council Tax data as a baseline. The purpose of the pilot was to examine the extent and nature of long term empty properties within South Lanarkshire. A questionnaire was sent out to a representative sample of 200 owners of long term empty properties (properties empty for longer than 6 months) to establish information on why properties were empty, request details of the property condition, and the type of advice & assistance which would help bring the property back in to use. Responses were received from 58 owners (29%). Of these responses, 49% reported that the property was ready for occupation or being actively marketed, and 28% had been occupied within the period of the survey. A further 10% were being renovated with 8% in need of renovation. A very small number reported the property was subject to legal dispute. In relation to advice and assistance, 39% of responses noted that advice on the availability of loans or grants to assist with the cost of renovation would be helpful, with 42% noting that advice and assistance of selling, or finding a tenant would be useful. Currently, less than 0.5% of homes in South Lanarkshire are estimate to be long- term empty properties.

  • South Lanarkshire M74 Local Strategic Routes
    South Lanarkshire M74 local strategic routes Advanced traffic direction signs have been erected to reflect the recommended routes for drivers wishing to access the M74 Completion from either the Cambuslang or Rutherglen area. The following descriptions can be read in conjunction with the local strategic route plan, below. Polmadie Road Junction (Yellow Route) is recommended for drivers accessing the M74 generally from the west of Main Street (Rutherglen) and adjacent areas such as Bankhead, Fernhill and Spittal. • Vehicles should access onto Mill Street (A730) and progress in a northerly direction passing the junction with Main Street, Rutherglen and onto Glasgow Road (A730). Vehicles should continue northwest along Glasgow Road becoming Rutherglen Road (A730) and proceed until it meets the new M74 junction at Polmadie Road. Cambuslang Road Junction (Orange Route) is recommended for drivers accessing the M74 generally from the east of Main Street (Rutherglen) and west of Main Street (Cambuslang) and adjacent areas such as Cathkin, Eastfield, Farmecross, High Burnside and Whitlawburn. • Due to the planned prohibition of ‘Right Turns' into Farmeloan Road for westbound vehicles using Main Street (Rutherglen), vehicles using this section of Main Street should instead travel east along Main Street (B768) towards Richmond Laundry roundabout. Vehicles should then turn left into Cambuslang Road (A724) and continue in a northwest direction to meet the Cambuslang Road Junction. • Vehicles to the north of the M74 should access onto Cambuslang Road (A724) and progress in a southeast direction until it meets the Cambuslang Road Junction. • Vehicles travelling from the south west of the Cambuslang Road Junction should access onto East Kilbride Road/Stonelaw Road (A749) and progress in a northerly direction passing below the M74.

  • Glasgow's Housing Policies
    5 GLASGOW'S HOUSING POLICIES S. F. HAMILTON, Director of Administration, Glasgow District Over the past two years the debate on Glasgow's housing policies has taken on a new urgency. Glasgow's population has already fallen by well over quarter of a million since 1961 and the city is still losing about 25,000 of its citizens every year. The main battles on housing policy have been fought within the Labour Party. The Social Democratic wing have been advocat­ ing the adoption of a more liberal and pragmatic approach to housing as one of the essential elements in a concerted pro­ gramme aimed at making the city a better and more attractive place to live. They hope thereby to stem the tide of emigration. The advocates of this policy have run into bitter opposition from the traditionalists in the Labour Party who do not accept that the flight from the city is in any way a rejection of past policies and who still see the socialisation of housing as a legitimate and desirable goal in its own right. In the first two years of the life of the District Council (which came into being in May 1975) the new Labour Adminis­ tration, courageously led by Bailie Dick Dynes, were persuaded to respond to changing public demand and to break with tradi­ tion and espouse causes which are by no means popular with the Party's left wing. Before any of the new policy initiatives could bear fruit the Administration had to face the electorate and at the 1977 election the Labour Party lost their majority.
