Conclusions 25 Recommendations 27 Appendix 27 2 Executive summary Roma migration from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) has increased significantly over the last decade as a result of EU expansion. There are now sizable Roma communities in many parts of England – including London, the Midlands and Northern England. Roma are one of the most persecuted groups in history and they can be extremely suspicious of the intentions and actions of non-Roma. Self-help is thus a key feature of Roma culture and many Roma migrants are extremely reluctant to engage with support agencies when they arrive in England.

  • The Formation of a Community Rail Partnership for the Calder Valley Line
    Report to Cabinet Date of Meeting 30th March 2021 Portfolio A Thriving Economy Report Author Dawn Sexton Public Document The Formation of a Community Rail Partnership for the Calder Valley Line Executive Summary 1.1 Members of the Cabinet are asked to approve the formation of a Community Rail Partnership (CRP) for the Calder Valley Line, which would include all five of the borough’s railway stations along with seven railway stations in Calderdale. 1.2 CRP’s bring together local groups and partners along railway lines to work with the rail industry, and deliver a range of community engagement and promotional activities to encourage ownership and improve access to and use of local rail services. CRPs promote understanding of the importance of local railways, in terms of improving mobility and sustainable travel, community cohesion and wellbeing and social and economic development. 1.3 Officers from Rochdale and Calderdale Councils, in conjunction with Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) and the West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA), have been working together on a proposal to establish a CRP with Rochdale Borough Council acting as the accountable body for the partnership in the first instance. 1.4 Forming a CRP would involve creating a Community Rail Officer post (part- time) to support the partnership, to develop a business plan and deliver activity to promote use of the Calder Valley Line. The work will increase community engagement and complement the Council’s Rail Corridor Strategy which promotes the physical regeneration of land and buildings around the Borough’s rail stations. Recommendation 2.1 Cabinet approves the formation of a CRP for the Calder Valley Line, in collaboration with Calderdale Council.

    Originator: Darren Adams Tel: 39 - 57156 Report of the Director of Environment and Neighbourhoods Executive Board Date: 3rd December 2008 Subject: West Yorkshire Energy Efficiency Scheme – Expenditure Discharge & Legal Delegation Electoral Wards Affected: Specific Implications For: Equality and Diversity Community Cohesion Narrowing the Gap Ward Members consulted (referred to in report) Eligible for Call In Not Eligible for Call In ü (Details contained in the report) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The five local authorities of West Yorkshire (Leeds City Council, Wakefield District Council, Calderdale Council, Kirklees Metropolitan Council and City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council) are working together to deliver a range of energy efficiency initiatives across the residential sector through the West Yorkshire Energy Efficiency Scheme. The aim of these initiatives is to support delivery of the Regional Affordable Warmth Strategy and Action Plan, and in turn, each Local Authority’s individual Affordable Warmth Strategies to reduce fuel poverty and facilitate affordable warmth. The Regional Scheme is funded to £2.5m over the period 2008-2011, which has been split equally amongst the 5 West Yorkshire authorities. Leeds City Council has been allocated £500k to fund capital measures and Scheme Management fees over the term of the initiative. A tender process has been completed for the Scheme Manager to run the initiatives, for which Kirklees Energy Services have been provisionally appointed subject to signing of the contract. However, in addition, there is a requirement for a ‘banker’ to be put in place to administer the expenditure of the Scheme funds and for auditing purposes. Calderdale Council were the Scheme banker for the period 2005-2008 and have offered to continue in this role for the new period 2008-2011.
