  • Consultation of Proposals for Overprovision Statement 2013-16
    The Highland Licensing Board Agenda 4 Item Meeting – 27 August 2013 Report HLB/107/13 No Consultation on Proposals for Overprovision Statement 2013-16 Report by the Clerk to the Board Summary Following receipt of the evidence and recommendations submitted by NHS Highland attached at Appendix 1 and a further assessment of crime statistics submitted by Police Scotland attached at Appendix 2, the Board is invited to agree options in relation to proposals for an Overprovision Statement on which to consult statutory consultees and the public and to agree an appropriate consultation period. 1. Background 1.1 On 7 August 2013, the Board agreed proposals for the process of developing a statement under section 7 of the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 (the “Act) as to the extent to which the Board considers there to be overprovision of licensed premises, or licensed premises of a particular description, in any locality within the Board’s area. This process involved first ingathering evidence, where available, in relation to all of the five licensing objectives, with the assistance, in particular, of NHS Highland and Northern Constabulary – now part of Police Scotland. 1.2 The ingathering and analysis of evidence has taken longer than was initially anticipated and has not been an easy task. This is particularly because of the differences in the way in which data on alcohol-related harm is and has been collected by the various agencies in Highland, some being collected at intermediate geography/data zone level but some being collected at multimember ward level or, in the case of crime statistics, at police area level or police beat level.

  • Movements of Alma in 2008
    Movements of Alma in 2008 03 January 2008 No signals received on 30th or 1st, but at 2.15pm this afternoon received a low quality signal from north of Grantown-on-Spey, with Alma possibly moving onto Dava Moor. It was snowing quite heavily in the hills with strong easterly winds. 05 January 2008 A snow blizzard was raging on 4th Jan, the Lecht road was closed and so was the Cabrach by late afternoon. (I was trying to drive that route to Banchory and had to turn back and travel via Huntly). The mountains received a big snowfall and for once the mountains hares in winter coat would have been camouflaged. This morning the weather cleared, and the snow started to disappear on the lower ground. Over midday two signals were received as Alma flew south from the Ladder Hills across Strathdon, presumably to find food on lower hills. The distance between the Carn Mor and Birkford/Lynemore is 4.3 km. At 6.30pm on the 7th she was back roosting in the southern slopes of the Ladder Hills, near the Peat Hill. On lower ground Glen Fiddich hills from Cabrach 11 January 2008 Great information received today. The mountains in the Cairngorms National Park are at their very best; plenty of snow throughout the hills, cold, clear skies and light winds. All the ski centres reporting excellent conditions. Alma was busy to the south of the Lecht ski centre. Yesterday's sunny skies had charged up the solar battery on the radio, so really accurate signals at 0622 and 0659GMT showed exactly where she roosted in the southern parts of the Ladder Hills.
