Minutes of the meeting held on 30 April 2013 The minute was approved as a correct record of the meeting 5. Matters Arising None 6. Board Report Bruce Crawford gave a verbal update based on the meeting of the directors on August 2013 which included the following points:- Rule Change: The previously circulated paper from the Competitions Manager, outlining a new wording for Rule 3 Clothing and Equipment for 2 teams playing in televised games was discussed and approved. This will enable those teams, playing in the finals of the Scottish Championships to increase the number of logos displayed on their team clothing. World Championship 2016 bid: The bid from RCCC to host the 2016 World Championships in 2016 was withdrawn. The principal reason cited for this was that the WCF advanced the deadline for submissions and this led to difficulty in securing the financial backing of the public bodies in the shortened timescale. Events strategy: the board discussed the future hosting opportunities as outlined in the paper presented by the CEO and agreed on priority to target World Men’s Championship in 2020 and World Women’s Championship in 2025. There remained some flexibility on this especially in relation to supporting the WCF. Legacy and TryCurling: A huge amount of work has gone into the new branding and content of TryCurling and the new website will go live later this month. To launch the new site and programmes, a Legacy Conference is planned for tomorrow and all ASC reps have been invited, along with LSC reps, rink managers/development groups and some coaches. Kinross Curling Trust: From 1 September the KCT became operators of the ice rink in Kinross. Work has been completed in the car park and internally in the bar area. The substantial works on the roof and ice plant commence in April 2014. Great news this week that Perth and Kinross Council have awarded £125,000 in grant funding to assist with the facility development. 7. Committee Reports Club & Member Development: Alan Muirhead Although the group has not met yet this season, work in the area has focussed on the TryCurling and Legacy projects. Coaching: The committee met on the 19th September, have allocated some roles and responsibilities to assist the Coaching Officer. The next coaches newsletter was approved and will be out in October. The Lead Child Protection Officer (Pam Mackay) has resigned due to her health. The president will write to Pam to express our thanks for her AD dedication to the role over many years. An article about the role and seeking a replacement will be published in the coaches newsletter and in Your Curler to attract a new person to the role. Competitions: The committee met in July and oversaw the draws. They will be meeting again in October to allocate competitions that are up for renewal for the 2014-15 season. Bruce outlined the rationale for changing the arrangements for the management of competitions and reported that the same people will continue to be involved though some roles have changed. Performance: The committee met this week and heard good reports on the performance programme and the Royal Club Academy programme. The Olympic and Paralympic selection commenced with announcement mentioned by Alan earlier, the men’s team will be announced in October and the fifth players by the middle of December. ASC Reps on committees: Alan circulated a list of the current committees and asked that anyone with relevant skills should add their name if they felt that they would be able to 3 contribute effectively to the work of the committees. Alan will advise those new members who will be allocated places on the committees, before the next meeting. 9. A.O.C.B Alan sought names for the curlers to play in the Priestfield Cup (ASC v LSC) in Perth on Tuesday 12 November after a joint meeting and the game with the Archers on Thursday 12 December. A sign up sheet was circulated and Alan will provide further information closer to the dates, anyone can contact AD Alan by phone or email to be added to either list. Swiss Tour, November 2014 Bruce confirmed that the Swiss had received the invitation to send some curlers to Scotland for a tour. David Henderson (who will be President in Nov 2014) agreed to form a group to develop plans and several volunteers offered to help, includingTommy Campbell, Ali Asher and Ian Parkinson. Walter Walsh also agreed to provide advice on what worked well last time. 10. Date of next meeting 10.30 on Tuesday 12 November 2013 will be a joint meeting with the ladies standing committee, followed by lunch and then the Priestfield Cup. 4 .

  • Proposed Abolition of the Tay Bridge and Forth Road Bridge Tolls
    Statement of Reasons by Bruce Crawford MSP In relation to my draft proposal for a Bill to abolish the Tay Bridge and Forth Road Bridge Tolls, I do not consider that consultation on the draft is required for the following reasons: The Forth and Tay Road Bridges are now the only remaining road bridges in Scotland where a toll is collected. Toll bridges have been the subject of a major Government review. As a consequence, I am persuaded that there has been adequate opportunity for key stakeholders and the public to consider the issues relating to my proposal. I also consider that the arguments for and against my proposal have been fully explored within this review. The following paragraphs outline the progress of the Scottish Executives Review.. The Scottish Executive’s Transport White Paper published on 16 June 2004 outlined the approach for the review of existing bridge tolls in Scotland. This major review was conducted in two stages. Phase One of the review focused on the tolling regimes on the Forth, Tay, Erskine and Skye road bridges. The review examined environmental, economic and accessibility issues as well as traffic trends and alternative tolling regimes. The Phase One consultation began in July 2004 and a report was published in December 2004 “Tolled Bridges Review: Phase One Report”. 1 This led to the removal of tolls from the Skye Bridge from 21 December 2004. The Phase Two consultation began in April 2005. The resulting report, “Tolled Bridges Report – Phase Two Report” 2 was published in March 2006. It considered the broader operational and management issues associated with each toll bridge in Scotland.

  • Bruce Crawford MSP for Stirling Constituency
    Bruce Crawford MSP for Stirling Constituency LABOUR/TORY OPPOSITION FAIL TO SUPPORT INVESTMENT IN STIRLING Communities across Stirling Constituency are set to benefit from greater support as a result of the Scottish Government’s Budget. However Labour and Tory opponents failed to support in- vestment for Stirling Constituency in the budget – with the three opposition parties voting against the SNP’s proposals to fund local services. The Budget will see Stirling Council receive £2.8million more than anticipated extra funding for 2017/18 as part of an additional £160m from the Scottish Government to Scottish Councils. This Scottish Government budget provides a strong funding deal for my Constituency, giving spending commitments to the NHS, education, infrastructure, environment and the economy. For the opposition parties, with the exception of the Greens, to vote against all of this was deeply disappointing and against the best interests of our communities. It was disappointing to see Labour and the Tories more interested in political point scoring ra- ther than standing up for their local communities – but there’s still time for them to drop their opposition and back the Scottish Government’s proposals as the Budget Bill progresses. Stirling and the surrounding villages will benefit from a range of direct spending commitments, including; £495m for NHS Forth Valley, support for the planned redevelopment of Stirling Sta- tion, electrification of Falkirk Grahamston, Stirling, Dunblane and Alloa line and funding to pro- mote the case for the Stirling/Clackmannanshire City Deal. Labour and the Tories should think again before choosing to rob Stirling of these vital services in a narrow-minded campaign designed to achieve nothing more than embarrassing the SNP Scottish Government.

  • Foi-19-00951 Information Released
    13 October 2017 BC/pt Nicola Sturgeon MSP First Minister St Andrews House Regent Road Edinburgh EH1 3DG Dear First Minister, I have recently been contacted by one of my constituents regarding your announcement about setting up a public energy company. My constituent says that he applauds this commitment but has asked me to outline the issue faced by many people in rural areas. Some years ago, the then Scottish Hydro, recognising that many rural areas don’t have access to mains gas, set up a tariff called THTC (Total Heat Total Control) designed to run storage heating off-peak, plus another heating appliance on cheap rate. Consequently, many people installed electric boilers, which were just about cost-effective on that tariff. This means that, unless they are prepared to replace their entire heating systems, they are effectively locked to this tariff. No other provider offers such a tariff, and SSE don’t offer it to new customers, while being free to increase the costs. My constituent suggests that this area would seem an ideal case for the new public utility to consider. YoursR sincerely, Redactede d a c Brucet Crawford MSP e d Bruce Crawford MSP Stirling constituency (SNP) Office 16, John Player Building, Stirling Enterprise Park, Stirling FK7 7RP Telephone 01786 471899 Email: [email protected] Stirling Constituency covers: Aberfoyle, Arnprior, Ardeonaig, Balfron, Balquhidder,Bannockburn, Blanefield, Brig O’Turk, Buchlyvie, Balmaha, Callander, Cambusbarron, Cowie, Crianlarich, Croftamie, Deanston, Doune, Drymen, Fallin,
