As had happened at the two previous county council elections in 1997 and 2001, a general election was held on the same day. The results of the general election are available from many sources and are not covered here. The voting system used for all elections covered here was first-past-the-post, with multi-member FPTP being used where more than one seat was up for election. New boundaries were introduced in many counties, with in many counties multi-member divisions introduced for the first time — previously every county had used single-member divisions. While most divisions remain single-member, there are now a significant number of two-member divisions and three divisions electing three members (Penzance in Cornwall, Hucknall in Nottinghamshire and Bicester in Oxfordshire). Elections to the county councils are covered in Part I. The three unitary authorities which held elections were Bristol, the Isle of Wight, and Stockton-on-Tees. The Isle of Wight Council has the status of a county council and has 48 single-member divisions. One-third of Bristol City Council was up for election, with one councillor up for election in two- thirds of the wards, the remaining wards not holding an election this year. The election in Stockton-on-Tees was hastily arranged in order to introduce new ward boundaries, which could not be agreed in time for the scheduled election in May 2003; Stockton-on-Tees will revert to its normal four-year cycle from May 2007. Elections to these bodies are covered in Part II. Finally, at the back you will find an Index of Wards. Where a candidate in an election dies, the election in that ward or division is cancelled and rearranged for a later date. This happened in the following wards or divisions at this election: • Kinver, Staffordshire• Town Close, Norfolk and also in the general election in the Staffordshire South constituency. Here is a list of abbreviations used in this book for major parties and selected other parties which fought several councils. This list is not exhaustive; parties which put up only a few candidates will generally have their abbreviation listed at the head of the entry for the relevant council. Please note that the 5 6 LOCAL ELECTION RESULTS 2006 “Lab” label includes candidates who were jointly sponsored by the Labour and Co-operative Parties.

  • Response to Research Design
    ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION CONSERVATORIUM SITE MACQUARIE STREET, SYDNEY VOLUME 2 : RESPONSE TO RESEARCH DESIGN for NSW DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS & SERVICES JULY 2002 CASEY & LOWE Pty Ltd Archaeology & Heritage _________________________________________________________________ 420 Marrickville Road, Marrickville NSW 2204 Tel: (02) 9568 5375 • Fax: (02) 9572 8409 • E-mail: [email protected] 1 Chapter 11: Research Design 11.0 Research Design The Meaning of the Archaeological Evidence The detailed interpretation of the archaeological evidence is found in the following chapters 12 to 16. This is where the research significance of the archaeology is explored and revealed, giving its meaning within a theoretical and social context. The main research questions that the archaeological evidence allows us to address are:1 1. Pre-European environment (Chapter 12) Evidence pertaining to the topography, geomorphology, vegetation etc. of this site prior to colonisation may contribute to research in the environmental history of the Sydney region, Aboriginal land management practices, historical ecology etc. 2. Remaking the landscape (Chapter 13) The Conservatorium site is located within one of the most significant historic and symbolic landscapes created by European settlers in Australia. The area is located between the sites of the original and replacement Government Houses, on a prominent ridge. While the utility of this ridge was first exploited by a group of windmills, utilitarian purposes soon became secondary to the Macquaries’ grandiose vision for Sydney and the Governor’s Domain in particular. The later creations of the Botanic Gardens, The Garden Palace and the Conservatorium itself, re-used, re-interpreted and created new vistas, paths and plantings to reflect the growing urban and economic importance of Sydney within the context of the British empire.

  • Register of Interests of Members’ Secretaries and Research Assistants
    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 11 July 2018) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register In accordance with Resolutions made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985 and 28 June 1993, holders of photo-identity passes as Members’ secretaries or research assistants are in essence required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £380 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass. Any gift (eg jewellery) or benefit (eg hospitality, services) that you receive, if the gift or benefit in any way relates to or arises from your work in Parliament and its value exceeds £380 in the course of a calendar year.’ In Section 1 of the Register entries are listed alphabetically according to the staff member’s surname. Section 2 contains exactly the same information but entries are instead listed according to the sponsoring Member’s name. Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented.

  • SECONDARY PUNISHMENT in the PENAL PERIOD in AUSTRALIA 1788-C
    SECONDARY PUNISHMENT IN THE PENAL PERIOD IN AUSTRALIA 1788-c. 1850 BY PROFESSOR BRYAN GANDEVIA Delivered at a Meeting of the Medico-Legal Society held on 28th May, 1977 at 8.30 pm at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, Spring Street, Melbourne. The Chairman of the Meeting was the President, the Hon. Mr. Justice Connor. Though man is greater than bird or beast, Though wisdom is still his boast, He surely resembles Nature least, And the things that vex her most. Henry Lawson: May Night on the Mountains. rT1HE history of punishment has many aspects of medical and legal 1 interest. My present viewpoint is somewhat unconventional. That it may be appreciated, I must begin by summarising my concepts of medical history and the role of the historian of medicine; I apologise to those who have heard or read of this before. In any given society, health and disease and the interplay between them are the result of en- vironmental influences, both physical and social (the latter compre- hending cultural and psychological components as well as physical fac- tors). Medical history, in the technical sense, is merely the record of disease and death, or of medical and scientific progress, perhaps also of the methods of providing health and medical care. This kind of history is not difficult to compile and it has considerable value, mostly to "health professionals". On the basis of my initial proposition, I believe medical historians have a responsibility to go further; they must offer an interpretation of the history of medicine in terms of the environ- mental influences.

At Castlefort there is a small hill-fort, believed to be iron age, and a bronze age hoard was found in 1824 at Greensborough Farm just over the parish boundary in Shenstone. This consisted of swords, spearheads, celts or battle axes, axes, palstaves and ot her objects dating from approximately 900 BC. Fragments of Roman glass and tiles have been found at Castlefort but no other direct evidence of Roman occupation has come to light i n spite of the proximity of Ryknield Street which runs through Sut t on Park and continues northward quite close to the parish boundary. The name given to Aldridge in the Domesday Book - Alrewic - is Anglo-Saxon and it is probable that the community was established during this period. Neighbour ing Little Aston and Barr were the subjects of a grant of land by a charter dated 957.
