  • Transport for the South East – Consent for Submission of Proposal to Government
    CABINET 7 APRIL 2020 TRANSPORT FOR THE SOUTH EAST – CONSENT FOR SUBMISSION OF PROPOSAL TO GOVERNMENT Portfolio Holder: Councillor Phil Filmer, Portfolio Holder for Front Line Services Report from: Richard Hicks, Director of Place and Deputy Chief Executive Author: Michael Edwards, Head of Integrated Transport Summary This report seeks Cabinet support for the creation of a Sub-National Transport Body for the South East, confirmation of Medway’s position as a constituent authority, and consent for the submission of a Proposal to Government for statutory status. 1. Budget and Policy Framework 1.1 Medway Council does not have a stated policy position on Sub-National Transport Bodies. It is possible, however, to align the principles behind its creation with the Council’s priority of maximising regeneration and economic growth. 2. Background 2.1 Transport for the South East (TfSE) formed as a shadow Sub-National Transport Body (STB) in June 2017, and brings together sixteen local transport authorities: Bracknell Forest, Brighton and Hove, East Sussex, Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Medway, Kent, Portsmouth, Reading, Slough, Southampton, Surrey, West Berkshire, West Sussex, Windsor and Maidenhead and Wokingham. The Shadow Partnership Board also includes arrangements for involving five Local Enterprise Partnerships in its governance process, along with two National Park Authorities, forty-four Boroughs and Districts in East Sussex, Hampshire, Kent, Surrey and West Sussex, and representatives from the transport industry. 2.2 TfSE’s aim, as set out in its vision statement, is to grow the South East’s economy by delivering a safe, sustainable, and integrated transport system that makes the South East area more productive and competitive, improves the quality of life for all residents, and protects and enhances its natural and built environment.

  • Download Annual Public Health Report
    Choosing Health in Medway The Annual Report of the Director of Public Health 2004 Medway Teaching Primary Care Trust As Chair of Medway Teaching Primary Care Trust I welcome the first Annual Health Report of our Director of Public Health, Dr Anita Sims. As part of our National Health Service, Medway PCT has two major objectives:- - to improve the health of the people of Medway, and - to reduce health inequalities in our communities If we are to achieve these objectives we need a base from which to start and an effective plan of action. This Annual Report forms the foundation on which this process is based and Dr Sims, as a member of Medway PCT’s Board, will be instrumental in guiding the continuing development of our health policies by helping us ensure that priorities are determined by reference to it. Healthy communities can only be achieved by consensus and with people and organisations working together effectively. We have achieved significant success already in this, particularly in terms of our integrated working with Medway Council. I am delighted with the support of Medway Council and the commitment of staff to this process in both organisations and look forward to the continuing development of these arrangements which are so crucial to the well-being of our community. Eddie Anderson Chairman Medway PCT I am very pleased to have the opportunity to contribute to the first Annual Health Report of the Director of Public Health since 1991. The importance of health, a feeling of well-being and an active, healthy lifestyle cannot be underestimated.

  • Parish Council Report for June 2021
    Parish Council Report for August 2021 Councillor Clive Hooker, Downlands Ward West Berkshire Council During this period, I have been fortunate to be able to get out and about the District visiting local functions as Chairman of the Council, the first was to present gold medals to children who had accepted the Summer reading challenge to read six books over the school summer school holiday and to have completed the challenge, all organised and run by the Newbury Library. It was good to see so many young children coming into the library to sign up and collect their registration cards and walk off with their chosen books to read. Another very enjoyable event I attended, accompanied by my wife Christine, was to open the Beedon Village Fun Day. This was really well organised event with lots of village and local people turning up to let their inhabitations go and get signed up for all manner of races from egg and spoon, three-legged, sack race and Tug-o-War. This showed wonderful community spirt organised for everyone’s enjoyment and all for free. On an important road safety note, I have received a considerable amount of correspondence regarding the uncut verges on our roads around the Ward, with the main concern being for the safety of motorists and cyclists. I have taken this up with the Highways Department who have assured me that a programme of work will start at the end of August so I am hoping that we are going to see some activity with the cutting of verges, starting in the Peasemore area.
