Not for Publication by Virtue of Paragraph 1 of Part 1 Of
Children’s Services Overview and Scrutiny Commission Panel Enquiry into Youth Services June, 2008 Scrutiny Report No # Chair’s Foreword This enquiry was undertaken after members of the former Lifelong Learning, Culture and Leisure Overview and Scrutiny Commission expressed concern regarding the impact the Youth Matters Green Paper would have on the provision of existing youth provision in the City. In particular we felt that historically, the move to a curriculum based youth service had led to a significant drop in the number of young people accessing youth services in the City. We realised that there were a significant number of current and emerging issues at a national level which would impact on the future delivery of youth services, across all sectors, at a local level. For these reasons we have made a number of strategic recommendations which should be taken into consideration as part of any future service reconfiguration and future commissioning of services for young people. During the course of the enquiry we established that there were a number of areas within the spectrum of both statutory and voluntary youth services which should be addressed. In particular, we found that a number of issues relating to the way the City Council worked with community and voluntary sector organisations in delivering quality, value for money youth activities within the City. We also recognised the need to redress the balance between universal and targeted youth work plus the urgent need to reintroduce outreach and detached youth work within the City. The Panel received a lot of evidence and considered the options very carefully, placing the views of young people as a priority. -

Community Education in British Urban Priority Areas with Special Reference to Hull
COMMUNITY EDUCATION IN BRITISH URBAN PRIORITY AREAS WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO HULL JAMES ANTHONY McELLIGOTT Submitted to the University of London Institute of Education for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Ph.D.) BBL LONDIN. UNIV. 1 ABSTRACT This thesis develops a model of community education for non traditional adult learners from the least socially and educationally advantaged groups living in the priority areas of urban Britain. The model is investigated through a case study of a community education project situated within North Hull. The thesis is organised into six chapters. Chapter One commences with a detailed analysis of urban priority areas and examines the cumulative effects of post war material conditions, social dislocation and educational underachievement. Educational proposals for ameliorating the situation are reviewed, including the idea of closer links with the home and neighbourhood as part of a community education solution. Chapter Two develops this emerging theme of community education by examining compensatory and reconstructionist models of British community education in which USA models of compensation and the idea of community problem solving became influential Following this early discussion, a model for community education in priority areas is proposed in Chapter Three. The model has the overall purpose of developing adult learners and achieving more open and accessible institutions through a two stage continuum of learning opportunities. Chapter Four describes the North Hull Community Outreach Project which investigates the model in practice. In Chapter Five an evaluation of the case study is carried out to analyse the potential value of the model. Chapter Six brings together the main findings of the thesis. -

C DPM Records of Hull Magistrates Court C.1836-1995
Hull History Centre: Records of Hull Magistrates Court C DPM Records of Hull Magistrates Court c.1836-1995 Historical background: Magistrates courts are the lowest level of courts in Enlgand, and is where alomst all criminal proceedings start. Hull was first granted the right to appoint its own magistrates, also known as Justices of the Peace (JPs), to deal with the summary cases, in 1440. More serious offences or indictable crimes would be passed to the quarter sessions or to the county assize, for capital cases. Despite the abolition of the old municipal corporation in 1836, the reformed borough was still able to select its own magistrates and hold its own courts, sometimes also known as police courts or petty sessions. This system continued until the reforms of the 1971 Courts Act, where the magistrate’s courts remained at lowest level, with the quarter sessions replaced by crown courts. The magistrate’s courts could also hear some civil cases, when county courts were established under the County Court Act 1846. They had jurisdiction over the recovery of debts and civil actions up to certain financial limits, including bankruptcy. Custodial History: The first group of records transferred to the City Archives were selected by the Clerk to the Magistrates at the Hull and Holderness Magistrates Courts in 1986, with another series of licensing records, C DPM/24 and C DPM/43-44, transferred in September 1993. C DPM/47 was transferred in January 2008 from the Hull County Court. C DPM/5/10- 12, C DPM/7/37-39, C DPM/24/2-5 and C DPM/48-49 were transferred in December 2016 from the Hull and Holderness Courts. -

Conservative and Unionist Group Response
2017 Kingston-Upon-Hull Local Government Boundary Review Conservative and Unionist Group Response Conservative and Unionist Group Submission March 2017 INTRODUCTION The Conservative Group welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Local Government Boundary Commission’s (LGBCE hereafter) proposals. We may also spend some time commenting on other proposals put forward by other political groups, but feel the main thrust of our remarks on the consultation should be around the LGBCE proposals. Our commentary, like our initial proposals, is based around adherence to the three main tenets of the LGBCE as highlighted on their website:- “The aim of the electoral review is to recommend ward boundaries that mean each councillor represents approximately the same number of voters. We also aim to ensure that the pattern of wards reflects the interests and identities of local communities as well as promoting effective local government.”1 To further highlight the key criteria for drawing up wards which we will refer back to throughout this submission document, they are to: 1 ensure each councillor represents approximately the same number of voters 2 ensure that the pattern of wards reflects the interests and identities of local communities 3 promote effective local government We have also adhered, as far as possible, to our belief that railway lines and dual carriageways are major constraints on identifying a community. Traditionally, canals and rivers are also seen as natural barriers and we feel we need to turn a little to the subject of the river – a topic that greatly exercises the minds of Hullensians. In cities such as York, Dublin, Belfast, and London the rivers are substantial and although the Ouse and Thames are crossed frequently by major bridges it is still a considerable barrier to traverse. -
