Criteria and Process for Awarding the Freedom of the City of Cardiff CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR CAERDYDD COUNCIL: 18 DECEMBER 2008 AGENDA ITEM: REPORT OF THE CLERK TO THE COUNCIL CRITERIA AND PROCESS FOR AWARDING THE FREEDOM OF THE CITY OF CARDIFF Reason for this Report 1. To allow the consideration of potential criteria, and process, for future nominations and applications for the Freedom of the City of Cardiff. Background 2. Historically, the Freedom of the City has been an award made by towns and cities to esteemed members of its community. However, in contemporary society, the award of Freedom of the City tends to be entirely ceremonial, given by local government to those who have served in some exceptional capacity, or upon those whom the City wishes to bestow an honour. The conferring of the honour of Freedom of the City is a means of acknowledging the contribution made by an individual, association or organisation to the life of the City of Cardiff. 3. The City of Cardiff has bestowed the Honorary Freedom of the City to 60 individuals and 9 organisations since its inception in 1886 (see Appendix A). Issues 4. Historically, there has been no set formal criterion for the nomination of a person or organisation for such an honour. It is now recognised that modern local government needs to build in formal criteria to support decision making, scrutiny and transparency. It is proposed that future successful nominations should meet at least one of the following criteria: a. An individual or organisation of outstanding and acknowledged merit, with close links to the City and County of Cardiff; b. An individual or organisation who has made an outstanding and acknowledged contribution to the development of Cardiff, the Capital City for Wales; c. An individual or organisation who demonstrates outstanding and acknowledged achievements on the international stage that have served to benefit the international community. 5. Nominations for the Freedom of the City have previously been received in one of two ways: • Emerging from the Council itself as a Corporate body • Nominations from outside the Council by interested individuals or organisations 6. It is proposed that a formalised nomination process be established and, to that end, a draft nomination form is attached for consideration (Appendix B). It is further proposed that all future nominations should be submitted by a Member, or Members, of Cardiff Council to the Clerk of the Council who will make the necessary administrative arrangements to ensure that nominations that meet the Council’s approved criteria are duly considered by the Council. 7. All political Groups represented on the Council have been involved in the formulation of both the draft process and the criteria set out in this report, and have agreed that it is vital that no information regarding potential nominations be made public prior to such nominations gaining cross Party/Group support. Information relating to any future nomination should, therefore, be kept confidential prior to inclusion on a Council Agenda. 8. The awarding of the Freedom of the City of Cardiff is an exceptional and unusual award and, it is recognised, therefore, that the frequency and timing of such future awards cannot be prescribed. Legal Implications 9. There are no legal implications arising from this report. Financial Implications 10. There are no financial implications arising from this report. RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the process for receipt and consideration of nominations for the award of the Freedom of the City of Cardiff, as set out in this report, be approved.

  • The London School of Economics and Political Science in the Shadow Of
    The London School of Economics and Political Science In the Shadow of the Prison Gates: An Institutional Analysis of Early Release Policy and Practice in England and Wales, 1960 – 1995 Thomas Charles Guiney A thesis submitted to the Department of Social Policy of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, October 2015. Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 99,995 words. 2 Abstract This thesis explores the historical development of early release policy and practice in England and Wales between 1960 - 1995. The evolution of criminal justice as a public policy concern has attracted considerable interest within the literature but this has tended to focus on the role of individuals as key agents of policy change or the ‘big picture’ socio-economic shifts associated with late twentieth-century modernity. Comparatively little attention has been paid to the mediating role of institutions at the intersection between policy and politics.

  • Nathaniel Hitch and the Making of Church Sculpture Claire Jones
    Nathaniel Hitch and the Making of Church Sculpture Claire Jones Housed at the Henry Moore Institute in Leeds is the archive of the now little-known sculptor, architectural sculptor, and sculptor’s modeller, Nathaniel Hitch (1845–1938).1 Unlike the extensive manuscript, printed, and visual material in Hamo Thornycroft’s archive, also held at the Henry Moore Institute, Hitch’s consists of hundreds of photographs pasted into two albums. These demonstrate the range of sculptural activity undertaken by Hitch, including figurative work, architectural sculpture, and anima- lier sculpture. Above all, they represent sculpture intended for Christian places of worship: recumbent effigies; altars; free-standing figures of saints, bishops, and biblical figures; reliefs of biblical scenes; Christ on the cross; Christ in groups; the Virgin Mary and Child; and sculpture for church fur- niture and furnishings. Hitch’s archive therefore offers significant docu- mentation for the study of Victorian sculpture practice outside the more familiar areas of the Academy and ideal classical sculpture: namely, church sculpture. The photographs are taken within Hitch’s studio or workshop. The space itself is only fragmentarily visible, and the sculptor himself is noticea- bly absent from all the photographs. This is distinct to the ‘at home’ and ‘in studio’ photographs of society sculptors such as Thornycroft, which recent scholarship has usefully examined in terms of the private-public domain of the artist’s studio and the role of these studios and photographs in an I would like to thank Claire Mayoh, archivist at the Henry Moore Institute, her maternity cover Janette Martin, and Georgia Goldsmith at the Bulldog Trust for assisting me in my research and for kindly providing the images for this publication.
