Proposed Public Spaces Protection Order - Moorland and Public Open Spaces in Saddleworth
Report to CABINET Proposed Public Spaces Protection Order - Moorland and Public Open Spaces in Saddleworth Portfolio Holder: Cllr Arooj Shah, Deputy Leader and Portfolio Lead for Social Justice and Communities Officer Contact: Carol Brown, Environmental Management Report Author: Lorraine Kenny, Community Safety Manager Ext. 1582 16th September 2019 Reason for Decision Following a significant amount of fires upon the moorlands in Saddleworth and Tameside over the last two years, both Councils have undertaken statutory consultation exercises as the first stage of the legal process to consider of the making of Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPO) pursuant to s59 of the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014. Such Orders will enable the introduction of behaviour controls upon the moorlands (FIRE RELATED ACTIVITIES) and prevent the significant impact of wildfires upon the community and services. Under the legislation each local authority must make its own PSPO, however should the Orders be made, it is intended that they will come into force on the same date and contain identical terms to avoid confusion along the contiguous geographical border. The Cabinet is asked to approve the making of the Public Spaces Protection Order relevant to Oldham pursuant to s59 of the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014. Executive Summary The Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014 gives local authorities the power to make Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) to control behaviours on land to which the public have access, which have caused or may cause a detrimental effect on the quality of life of those in the locality and are likely to be on a continuing or persistent nature and are therefore unreasonable. -
Walk the Way in a Day Walk 45 Black Hill from Standedge
Walk the Way in a Day Walk 45 Black Hill from Standedge A challenging walk across open moorland, combining 1965 - 2015 old and new Pennine Way routes. After following an easy path beside reservoirs and up onto Black Hill, the return route crosses dreadful terrain - including the infamous Saddleworth Moor - with difficult navigation making fair weather essential.. Length: 12½ miles (20¼ kilometres) Ascent: 1,657 feet (505 metres) Highest Point: 1,910 feet (582 metres) Map(s): OS Explorer OL Map 1 (‘The Peak District - Dark Peak’) (West Sheet) Starting Point: Standedge parking area, Saddleworth (SE 019 095) Facilities: Inn nearby. Website: http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/pennine-way/route/walk- way-day-walk-45-black-hill-standedge Wessenden Moor The first part of the walk follows the Pennine Way over Wessenden Moor, a total of 5½ miles (8¾ kilometres). At the parking area, a finger sign points to a path climbing above Standedge Cutting. Joining a track heading east- south-east, this follows the course of an old turnpike, constructed in 1815 and subsequently replaced by the alignment now used by the A62. Off to the left, beneath the shapely form of Pule Hill, is Redbrook Reservoir, built to supply the Huddersfield Narrow Canal. Looking ahead, the Holme Moss transmitter identifies the location of Black Hill. Arriving at an old marker stone, the Pennine Way turns onto a flagged path heading towards a pair of small reservoirs (Black Moss and Swellands) (1 = SE 031 089).

EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY IN POST-FURMAN CAPITAL CASES Michael L. Radelet* Barbara A. Zsembik** I. INTRODUCTION In the 1972 case of Furman v. Georgia, the United States Su- preme Court invalidated virtually all existing death penalty stat- utes in the United States.' Consequently, those jurisdictions that wanted to continue to execute were forced to revise their capital sentencing procedures. Since Furman, nearly all aspects of Ameri- can death penalty law have been rewritten. Left unchanged by both the courts and the legislatures, however, are the ways in which states decide which death-sentenced inmates will have their sentences commuted through the powers of executive clemency. Clemency is a broad power resting in the -

Once again my thanks are due to the members of the committee for their continued hard work during the year and the support they have given me. In the summer, sadly, Roger Ivens, our Bulletin editor, had to give up this role due to pressure of work. Roger has done a first class job over the last three years and our grateful thanks are due to him for achieving such a high standard of publication, also for his own articles which have added to our knowledge of Saddleworth’s past. Also, for health reasons Stanley Broadbent has handed the job of newsletter editor to Michael Fox. Once again sincere thanks go to Stanley for his contributions to the newsletter over many years and thanks to Michael for taking on this important job.
