Information Annex E-Mail 1 Main Information Annex E-mail 1 From: Andrew Bruce <[email protected]> Sent: 19 January 2018 17:34 To: McNairney J (John) <[email protected]> Subject: BTR Dinner - Follow Up John Many thanks for your participation in the BTR dinner on Tuesday night. I wanted to follow up on a few points from the dinner: 1. With regard to the action you took away on organising a meeting with key local authority planning officials on Build to Rent, SFT is very happy to support you in this. I floated the idea with you of inviting a planning official from a local authority in England that has handled several BTR planning applications. I have already made an enquiry as to who a suitable individual would be (without committing you to their involvement, if on reflection you wish to take a different approach.) 2. With regard to bringing more resource to key planning applications, clearly legislation allowing authorities to vary planning fees will take some time. However it might be worth discussing with you whether there is anything we can do to assist Edinburgh and Glasgow in their planning process for the live Moda Apache applications. Have a good weekend. Perhaps we can have a chat next week on these points.

Glasgow Theses Service http://theses.gla.ac.uk/ [email protected] Neoliberal Urbanism and Spatial Composition in Recessionary Glasgow Neil Gray MRes Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Geographical and Earth Sciences College of Science and Engineering University of Glasgow November 2015 i Abstract This thesis argues that urbanisation has become increasingly central to capital accumulation strategies, and that a politics of space - commensurate with a material conjuncture increasingly subsumed by rentier capitalism - is thus necessarily required. The central research question concerns whether urbanisation represents a general tendency that might provide an immanent dialectical basis for a new spatial politics. I deploy the concept of class composition to address this question. In Italian Autonomist Marxism (AM), class composition is understood as the conceptual and material relation between ‘technical’ and ‘political’ composition: ‘technical composition’ refers to organised capitalist production, capital’s plans as it were; ‘political composition’ refers to the degree to which collective political organisation forms a basis for counter-power.

Whilst 2017 examined ‘Collecting, interpreting and displaying LGBTQ histories’, 2018 looked at how the centenary of some women gaining the vote in 1918 was celebrated in heritage sites across the UK. These consecutive special issues prevented the inclusion of papers from two very successful and thought-provoking SHCG conferences, 2017’s ‘Changing Tides’ and ‘A True Reflection?: Displays, Stories and Exhibitions’ in 2018.

Airdrie-based Inver House Distillers, which owns five distilleries and is a subsidiary of ThaiBev‟s International Beverage Holdings, yesterday said turnover in 2010 had risen by 19% to £62.9m, helped by Old Pulteney‟s biggest ever sponsorship campaign. The brand has made “significant increases” in target markets including Russia and the US. The Old Pulteney “Row to the Pole” campaign is backing explorer Jack Wishart‟s attempt to row to the North Pole. (The Scotsman, 25/8/11) Caorunn Scottish Gin, produced at the Balmenach Distillery in Speyside, has struck a major distribution deal for the Australian market with Japanese global drinks giant Suntory. The deal comes just ahead of the brand‟s two year anniversary. Earlier this year, Caorunn Scottish Gin, which has already become the third bet selling super premium gin in the UK, launched in the US and Spain. (The Herald, 18/8/11) A share issue by Fraserburgh-based craft beer company BrewDog has raised more than £1m in less than a month, paving the way for the firm to open a new brewery on the outskirts of Aberdeen.
