Of these, there are a small number still to carry out.

(S4W-05601) Richard Lochhead: The European Commission requires all EU member states to maintain a Land Parcel Information System (LPIS) for all land parcels that are involved in a claim for subsidy under the Common Agricultural Policy. This is part of its Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS). All IACS elements, including LPIS, are subject to checks by both national and EC auditors. In addition, since 2010 all member state LPIS systems are subject to a statutory annual Quality Assessment based on a set of criteria defined by the European Commission Joint Research Centre.

(S4W-05944) Fergus Ewing: The Scottish Government’s proposal for Scotland is for independence, with a new relationship of equality between Scotland and the other nations of these islands, and a voice in Europe and the wider world. We are currently consulting on plans to hold a referendum on independence in 2014. The Scottish Government has a clear commitment to post offices and postal services, to the maintenance of universal service obligations and to ensuring Post Office Ltd remains in public ownership.

This national picture of flood risk across Scotland is a key milestone in targeting efforts to plan and invest in reducing impacts in areas most vulnerable to flooding.

  • Stewart2019.Pdf
    Political Change and Scottish Nationalism in Dundee 1973-2012 Thomas A W Stewart PhD Thesis University of Edinburgh 2019 Abstract Prior to the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish National Party’s strongest bastions of support were in rural areas. The sole exception was Dundee, where it has consistently enjoyed levels of support well ahead of the national average, first replacing the Conservatives as the city’s second party in the 1970s before overcoming Labour to become its leading force in the 2000s. Through this period it achieved Westminster representation between 1974 and 1987, and again since 2005, and had won both of its Scottish Parliamentary seats by 2007. This performance has been completely unmatched in any of the country’s other cities. Using a mixture of archival research, oral history interviews, the local press and memoires, this thesis seeks to explain the party’s record of success in Dundee. It will assess the extent to which the character of the city itself, its economy, demography, geography, history, and local media landscape, made Dundee especially prone to Nationalist politics. It will then address the more fundamental importance of the interaction of local political forces that were independent of the city’s nature through an examination of the ability of party machines, key individuals and political strategies to shape the city’s electoral landscape. The local SNP and its main rival throughout the period, the Labour Party, will be analysed in particular detail. The thesis will also take time to delve into the histories of the Conservatives, Liberals and Radical Left within the city and their influence on the fortunes of the SNP.

Nanetti). Published by Princeton University Press, the book's central thesis is that social capital is key to high institutional performance and the maintenance of democracy. The authors studied the performance of twenty regional Italian governments since 1970, which were similar institutions but differed in their social, economic and cultural context. They found that regional government performed best, holding other factors constant, where there were strong traditions of civic

  • SC4: a Plan for the Islands Orkney Liberal Democrats Mover: Tavish Scott MSP Summator: Liam Mcarthur MSP
    SC4: A plan for the islands Orkney Liberal Democrats Mover: Tavish Scott MSP Summator: Liam McArthur MSP Conference notes: ● The strong feelings in Shetland and Orkney against the centralisation of public services, for example on policing, fire services, colleges, economic development, public sector construction and civil engineering contracts. ● Scottish Liberal Democrats support for radical action to reverse centralisation and empower communities through the Home Rule and Community Rule Commission report. ● The distinct needs of the islands on many matters, not least the seafood industries, the Scottish Government's exclusion of business from the Air Discount Scheme and the exclusion of Orkney and Shetland from any mechanism to reduce ferry fares. ● The ‘Our Islands, Our Future’ campaign jointly led by Orkney Islands Council, Shetland Islands Council and Comhairle nan Eilean Siar seeking additional powers to give communities greater control over island requirements. Conference believes: ● The Scottish Government’s centralised “one-size-fits-all” policies damage the interests of the islands where circumstances are very different from the Scottish mainland. ● Public bodies such as Marine Scotland, Scottish Natural Heritage and Transport Scotland, for example, have a particularly big impact on island communities. ● The seabed around islands is of vital economic importance locally and nationally. ● Fuel poverty is higher in island communities than elsewhere in Scotland, due to poor housing stock, low incomes, and high fuel costs. This risks being made worse as Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) rules result in new houses in island communities without access to mains gas are often built using less insulation. ● Air services are a lifeline link for businesses, patients travelling to hospital appointments and the wider public.
