Quarter 4, 2014 Dates for Your Diary In this issue: BALPPA’s Christmas message Some words from our Chairman Visitor Attraction Expo schedule MANCOM Nominations Quarter 4, 2014 Dates for your diary WISHING YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS It’s been another very busy year for BALPPA and I can’t quite believe I’ve been working for the business for 2 years – time certainly flies when you’re having fun! 2014 has proven to be another successful year for our industry which saw some great results, especially over the summer period. As you know, BALPPA is committed to supporting its Members and the industry as a whole. We remain very active in terms of our Parliamentary lobbying as well as sitting on various steering committees and other boards to help drive our industry forward. Another testament as to how fast the last 2 years has gone is that it’s almost time to say goodbye to our current Chairman, Bob O’Connor. Bob took over in January 2012 and has been a great support to me and the team over the last 2 years. I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of everyone at BALPPA to thank him for his help and support. Bob will remain an active Member of BALPPA as part of the Management Committee. As we say farewell to Bob, we are delighted to welcome Marshall Hill who will take over the reigns as BALPPA Chairman in January – a warm welcome to Marshall and we look forward to working with you! We have a jam-packed year planned in 2015 which begins with our Annual Dinner at Madame Tussauds on Monday 12th January, followed by the start of the EAG Show and the launch of the Visitor Attractions Expo – a partnership between BALPPA and EAG – just a couple of the exciting things we have planned for next year! In the meantime, on behalf of the whole BALPPA team we would like to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and here’s to a successful 2015! Best wishes Paul Kelly BALPPA CEO SOME WORDS FROM OUR CHAIRMAN As mentioned by Paul Kelly on the cover of the bulletin, January 2015 sees a change in Chairman for BALPPA. We say goodbye to Bob O’Connor and welcome Marshall Hill into the role. From the team at BALPPA we would like to say thank you to Bob for his help and support over the last two years and Marshall, we look forward to working with you! Here are a few words from Bob and Marshall……….. “As Managing Director of Howletts and Port Lympne Wild Animal Parks I have been an active Member of BALPPA since 2004. I joined the Management Committee in 2008 before taking over from Adrian Mahon as BALPPA Chairman in January 2013. The last two years have flown by and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time, serving Bob O’Connor as your Chairman. I am delighted to have witnessed some great progress in terms Current BALPPA of BALPPA’s lobbying commitments and to have hosted some wonderful events Chairman in Europe and in the UK. I will continue to be a part of BALPPA’s Management Committee and with my colleagues, I look forward to building on the foundations we have laid in supporting the industry as a whole as well as helping you to maximise your BALPPA Membership. I have enjoyed working with Paul and the team and would like to take this opportunity to thank both our Members and staff for their support during my Chairmanship. In January I will hand this over to Marshall Hill, your incoming Chairman who I know will do a fantastic job and I wish him every success. Best wishes, Bob”. Over to our incoming Chairman, Marshall Hill: "I have been a Member of BALPPA for 15 years and was voted onto the Management Committee 8 years ago after being chosen by the Members in an election. What I particularly enjoy about being a Member is meeting like-minded people who are as passionate about their businesses and the industry as I am. I am excited to take over as BALPPA Chairman in January. I firmly believe in the Marshall Hill sharing of of best practise and will be looking to drive this forward via seminars Incoming BALPPA and other events. Another important part of my role will be to continue to be Chairman proactive in terms of political lobbying on key issues that affect our industry such as the deregulation of school holidays and cutting VAT and on Health and Safety as per previous our Chairmen. As we all know, the welfare and safety of guests and staff should be our number one priority and I feel that it’s vitally important that the powers that be understand our industry and the various sectors within it – I want to make sure that our voice is heard. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the previous two Chairmen, Adrian Mahon and Bob O’Connor for their guidance and support and I very much look forward to becoming your Chairman and working with Paul and the team for the benefit of all in our great industry”.

  • 7.2 Detailed Baseline
    THE LONDON RESORT PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION REPORT Appendix 7.2 Detailed Baseline INTRODUCTION Chapter 7: Land use and socio-economics reports the existing socio-economic and employment conditions relevant to the study areas of the London Resort, and assesses the impact of the London Resort upon those baseline conditions. However, it is important to outline the baseline conditions in more detail than Chapter 7: Land use and socio-economics. This appendix reviews the baseline conditions at a more detailed geography and presents additional metrics and industry specific data. This appendix follows the same structure as the baseline presented in the chapter, where data relevant to each effect is listed in order of the effects assessed. Chapter 7: Land use and socio-economics concludes on the sensitivity of each receptor relevant to each effect, that sensitivity is not repeated in this appendix. The study areas are consistent with that presented in the main chapter, as shown in Table 7.2.1 below. Notably, the listed study area abbreviations are used throughout the appendix. Study areas considered in the London Resort Geographical Definition Rationale Study Area The DCO Order Limits. The PSB study area is used for effects which The Project Site Refer to Figure 7.1 in are at the Project Site level.
