And I know those of you who read this section regularly will note that I have something to Enjoy you your summer and this month’s edition of HOUSE. say on this almost every month, but it is absolutely true. We have Curtis Chisholm demonstrated time and again that if you get the value wrong DIRECTOR (and therefore the asking price wrong to reflect this) then the buying public, who are no longer duped and are price savvy, will vote with their feet and either visit the property but not offer, or offer much less akin to what they think it’s worth or they may not visit at all. And no one wants that. The lack of supply and demand for property right now is such that if it is marketed correctly you will get the demand you wish and get a good sales value close to if not exceeding your expectations. But it’s not about who gives you the highest value. On a different note I would like to thank one of our viewing persons, Ms Karen Rigby for the time she worked with us. She was always very polite and accommodating but has left us to work for Marie Cure full time. In Karen’s place we have Mr Colin Anderson. For those of you whom haven’t had the pleasure of meeting Colin then on your next accompanied viewing you may come across him. He has had an interesting few years, retiring from the fire service to owning a book shop to COCHRAN DICKIE ESTATE AGENTS ESTAS SILVER AWARD WINNER Everything we know, so far about Scotland’s new first time buyer scheme Nicola Sturgeon recently announced a new £150 million national pilot scheme to help first time buyers get on the property ladder in Scotland.

PREFACE. ACTING upon the suggestion of the retiring Master and other prominent members of the Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire Hunt, I have ventured to produce an historical record which it is hoped will meet with the appreciation of those interested. For the description of the sport of the past twenty seasons I am greatly indebted to the diaries so perfectly kept by the late Mr. J. J. Barclay, which were kindly placed at my disposal by Mr. G. Barclay. Without such a valuable asset no work of this kind could ever have been attempted, and I have made the fullest possible use of these records, so that sportsmen and sportswomen of the last quarter of a century can refresh their memory in regard to the many great runs enjoyed during that period. I hope I have succeeded in an effort to furnish a complete and unvarnished account of the doings of the pack, together with a history of the Hunt since its origin. Possibly, at some future time, another enthusiast will take up the pen and bring the records up to date. Harry Judd (" Tantivy "). CONTENTS.

    Scottish Observatory for Work and Health University of Glasgow Renfrewshire Incapacity Benefit Claimant Profile April 2010 Judith Brown Joel Smith David Webster James Arnott Ivan Turok Ewan Macdonald Richard Mitchell Contact: Judith Brown Public Health & Health Policy 1 Lilybank Gardens University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8RZ [email protected] 1 Summary & Key Findings Renfrewshire Incapacity Benefit claimant Profile 1. This incapacity benefit (IB) claimant profile for Renfrewshire gives detailed information on IB claimants by sex, age, reason for claiming IB and length of time on IB. It also contains IB claimant rates for the 38 intermediate zones in Renfrewshire (in 2008, Paisley Ferguslie had the highest IB rate at 23.1% and Houston South the lowest rate at 2.8%). 2. In 2008 there were 10,800 IB claimants in Renfrewshire. The IB rate, on flow rate and off flow rate were determined for Renfrewshire from 2000 to 2008. The percent of the working age population claiming IB has decreased from 12.3% to 10.2% from 2000 to 2008. The rate of on flow has decreased from 3.5% to 2.6% and the off flow rate has increased from 25.0% to 28.5%. 3. The proportion of ‘payment’ IB claimants is larger in Renfrewshire compared to Scotland for both males and females. The proportion of male and female ‘credits only’ IB claimants (those with a poor work history) have increased from 2000 to 2008. There are more female ‘credits only’ claimants than males in Renfrewshire. 4. The proportion of each age group who are claimants rises with age, peaking in the 60-64 age group.
