This thesis picks up the goals pertaining to sustainable development and the efficient use of land in the Strategic Land Use and Development Plan and Victoria Masterplan and puts them in perspective to inward development, the paramount principle of Swiss planning. From this starting point it outlines the planning frameworks of Switzerland and the Seychelles with their constituent parts and practices. For the Seychelles, a particular emphasis was laid on the current transitions in the planning system and practice as well as the current trends and circumstances of settlement development itself. This included a calculation of the settlement reserves of the Seychelles. Based on these elements, the thesis analysed if the framework is suitable for achieving the goals from the mentioned plans and for achieving inward development more generally. From this, the main challenges identified to sustainable settlement development in the Seychelles were a lack of instruments to contain settlement development within certain boundaries and the ability to bring inward development projects to implementation. Subsequently, it was explored if a meaningful contribution to addressing these challenges could be made by adapting some of the instruments and practices used in Swiss planning for ensuring inward development to the Seychelles. From the two challenges, two principal solutions were derived. On the one hand, the compiling of approaches to concentrate the settlement growth within certain boundaries by increasing materialisation within these boundaries and enabling the restriction of development outside them. On the other hand, the formulation of an integrated framework designed to bring about the implementation of inward development projects. This framework consists of two models: a strategic one on the district level and a more applied one on the plot level. The latter was subsequently tested with the help of three test study sites. The results from the analyses as well as the adaption of the Swiss instruments to the context of the Seychelles could be summarised in three main findings. Firstly, that the planning instruments of the Seychelles are on a steady path to forming a coherent framework if attention is given to the implications of formalising them. Secondly, that adaptions to planning practice are necessary if settlement development is to be sustainable, in particular ensuring that settlement development is largely contained within certain boundaries. Finally, in order to ensure the implementation of inward development projects the availability of formal instruments for securing results was revealed to be of great value while availability of informal procedures is also advantageous. The thesis also produced insights for Swiss planning practice, in particular the importance of the Swiss maxim of the division of the building zones from the non-building zones and the advantages of organising land use planning on a more regional level. i Table of Contents 1 Introduction................................................................................................................................. 1 1.1.

The UKMTO (United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations) has established a designated Voluntary Reporting Area (VRA) covering all the waters of Red Sea, Gulf of Oman, Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean S of Suez and Straits of Hormuz to 10°S and 78°E. The High Risk Area (HRA) is an area within the UKMTO VRA where it is considered there is a higher risk of piracy and within which self-protective measures are most likely to be required. The high risk area is bounded by: ● Parallel 15°N in the Red Sea. ● The territorial waters off the coast of E Africa at latitude 05°S. Then to positions: ○ 10°00.OON 60°00.00E. ○ 00°00.OON 55°00.00E. ○ 14°00.OON 60°00.00E. ● Then a bearing 310° to the territorial waters of the Arabian Peninsula. Note that our sailing grounds within the Inner Seychelles Island Group do not fall within the above boundary coordinates and are not considered at risk from piracy.

  • 2018 End of Year Report 2017
    Republic of Seychelles Ministry of Local Government National Action Plan 2017 – 2018 End of year Report 2017 1 The Ministry of Local Government envisions that through good local governance and inclusiveness, our local communities will be empowered and will thrive on a good quality of life, high sense of community spirit, belonging and ownership. One of its key mission is therefore to ensure that all children from all districts do, have a winning start in life. To facilitate the fulfillment of that mission, the Ministry established a new Technical Committee that will develop, implement, and monitor the implementation of projects that relate to early childhood care and education. The attention of the Committee was and is also focused on the outcome and impacts of its projects on the overall development of the children in the community, the level of parents’ wellbeing and their satisfaction with services on offer. The Committee is led by Mrs. Betty-Mai Sofa, the Senior Policy Analyst. Other members include: Mrs. Muriel Marie, Technical Advisor, Mrs. Raymonde Benstrong, Principal Monitoring and Evaluation Officer; Mr. Daniel Adeline, Director General for Project Division; Mr. Damien Ally, Inner island Coordinator; Ms. Jennifer Toussaint, Senior Public Relation Officer; Ms. Beguita Melanie; Pointe La Rue District Administrator; Mrs. Nicole Gabriel, English River District Administrator and Mr. Mike Morel, Baie Lazare District Administrator. The first Technical Team meeting was held on the 13th June 2017 and from then on, meetings are held on every second Tuesday of the month (Annex 1). The appointment of Technical Team members were formalized through a letter from the Designated Minister and Minister for Local Government and Home Affairs dated 14th November 2017 (Annex 2).
