  • Clarence Harold Wilkinson
    PHOTO (courtesy x) Clarence Harold Wilkinson (1864-1922) was born 5 September 1864 to Alexander and Jane Wilkinson in West Maitland, NSW, where he attended the public school and sat junior examinations in 1880. In August 1881 Clarence sought employment with the City of Sydney as an articled pupil. By December 1881 the City’s Finance Committee recommended the appointment of Wilkinson in the City Architect's Department, noting he had completed three months' trial, with an annotation of commendation by T.H. Sapsford, the City Architect. By December 1884, having completed his articles, Wilkinson was placed on the staff as a draftsman with a salary of £125 p.a.. Clarence was a first prize winner in architecture at Sydney Technical College in recognition of studies during 1884. Wilkinson occupied some of his spare time as a member of the volunteer services, acting as a second lieutenant by 1884, and promoted to first lieutenant in 1888. By 1888 Wilkinson was the assistant city architect and building surveyor to the Municipality of Sydney, but he resigned in mid-1889. Clarence advertised with his brother Lancelot Alexander Wilkinson in the Maitland Mercury & Hunter River General Advertiser from October 1899 as ‘Wilkinson & Wilkinson, Architects and Licensed Surveyors’, having offices in Sydney, Newcastle and West Maitland. With poor economic conditions in late 1890, Clarence abandoned his efforts on the east coast and soon travelled to the other side of Australia, seeking greater opportunities. Wilkinson joined the Western Australian Public Works Department (PWD) in Perth, working on a number of railway buidings. He resigned from the PWD at the end of June 1892, and after a few years as a sole practitioner, entered into partnership with E.H.

Greeney Max Gillmanz Mark N. Harrisx Christopher Spencer{ September 2013 Abstract We propose a Tempered Ordered Probit (TOP) model. Our contribution lies not only in explicitly accounting for an excessive number of observations in a given choice category - as is the case in the standard literature on in‡ated models; rather, we introduce a new econometric model which nests the recently developed Middle In‡ated Ordered Probit (MIOP) models of Bagozzi and Mukherjee (2012) and Brooks, Harris, and Spencer (2012) as a special case, and further, can be used as a speci…cation test of the MIOP, where the implicit test is described as being one of symmetry versus asymmetry. In our application, which exploits a panel data-set containing the votes of Bank of England Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) members, we show that the TOP model a¤ords the econometrician considerable ‡exibility with respect to modelling the impact of di¤erent forms of uncertainty on interest rate decisions. Our …ndings, we argue, reveal MPC members’ asymmetric attitudes towards uncertainty and the changeability of interest rates. Keywords: Monetary policy committee, voting, discrete data, uncertainty, tempered equations.

  • Minutes of the Monetary Policy Committee Meeting Held on 4 and 5 May 2011
    Publication date: 18 May 2011 MINUTES OF THE MONETARY POLICY COMMITTEE MEETING 4 AND 5 MAY 2011 These are the minutes of the Monetary Policy Committee meeting held on 4 and 5 May 2011. They are also available on the Internet http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/publications/minutes/mpc/pdf/2011/mpc1105.pdf The Bank of England Act 1998 gives the Bank of England operational responsibility for setting interest rates to meet the Government’s inflation target. Operational decisions are taken by the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee. The Committee meets on a regular monthly basis and minutes of its meetings are released on the Wednesday of the second week after the meeting takes place. Accordingly, the minutes of the Committee meeting to be held on 8 and 9 June will be published on 22 June 2011. MINUTES OF THE MONETARY POLICY COMMITTEE MEETING HELD ON 4 AND 5 MAY 2011 1 Before turning to its immediate policy decision, and against the background of its latest projections for output and inflation, the Committee discussed financial market developments; the international economy; money, credit, demand and output; and supply, costs and prices. Financial markets 2 Markets had generally been stable on the month, against a backdrop of relatively thin trading conditions during the holiday periods. 3 Implied market expectations of the point at which Bank Rate would begin to rise had been pushed back, partly in response to data releases, notably the March CPI outturn. Information derived from overnight index swaps indicated that the market yield curve had fully priced in a 25 basis point increase in Bank Rate by early 2012.

In January, at the start of the Society’s 65th year, we changed our name from Society of Business Economists (SBE) to Society of Professional Economists (SPE). There were two primary reasons why we made this change: 1. To broaden our appeal to a wider and more diverse range of economists. I am pleased to report that the Society’s membership has risen by more than 10% in the 10 months since we made the change and that it continues to grow rapidly. 2. To mark the Society’s expansion into the area of professional development. At the start of this year we launched a new professional development programme for economists, which is being run by the Society’s Head of Professional Development, Andy Ross. Through the hard work of Andy and his team, the popularity of these courses has grown steadily through the year. Meanwhile, the programme of events that the Society is holding has never been stronger. Since the start of the 2017‐2018 financial year, the Society has hosted three central bank governors, three deputy governors, the Chairman of the Office for Budget Responsibility, the Chief Economic Advisor to HM Treasury and a host of economics professors and other experts. We have heard speakers discussing topics ranging from Brexit to Intergenerational Fairness and from the UK’s long‐run economic performance to the outlook for the housing market.

(2020 – 108) Also present were David Taylor, Clerk, Cllr Michael Harrison (NYCC). One member of the public was in attendance. (2020 – 109) Apologies were received and accepted from Cllr Tom Shepherd. (2020 – 110) No Declarations of Interest were received and so Dispensations were required. (2020 – 111) It was resolved that the minutes of the meeting held on 4th August 2020, having been circulated for consideration beforehand were true and correct records. The Chairman signed them accordingly. Reports: (2020 – 112) Cllr Harrison reported on the following from North Yorkshire County Council:- a. Covid19 infection rates are rising, NYCC is JUST below the average for England. The thresholds for intervention are 100 cases per 100,000 per day – NYCC are only just short of this figure. Below 50 / 100,000 is considered “acceptable”. b. There are 235 Care homes in across NY and NYCC have introduced “whole home testing”. NYCC are giving more support to care homes in order to try and stop staff having to be moved between homes. c. Day care centres are still on hold with the resultant risk of knock-on problems. d. With regard to devolution, most parties seem to be in favour of devolution but there is a wide spectrum of what the final local authority will look like.
