Canolfan Llywodraethiant Cymru Paper 5A - Wales Governance Centre
Papur 5a - Canolfan Llywodraethiant Cymru Paper 5a - Wales Governance Centre DEPRIVATION AND IMPRISONMENT IN WALES BY LOCAL AUTHORITY AREA SUPPLEMENTARY EVIDENCE TO THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY’S EQUALITY, LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND COMMUNITIES COMMITTEE’S INQUIRY INTO VOTING RIGHTS FOR PRISONERS DR GREG DAVIES AND DR ROBERT JONES WALES GOVERNANCE CENTRE AT CARDIFF UNIVERSITY MAY 2019 Papur 5a - Canolfan Llywodraethiant Cymru Paper 5a - Wales Governance Centre ABOUT US The Wales Governance Centre is a research centre that forms part of Cardiff University’s School of Law and Politics undertaking innovative research into all aspects of the law, politics, government and political economy of Wales, as well the wider UK and European contexts of territorial governance. A key objective of the Centre is to facilitate and encourage informed public debate of key developments in Welsh governance not only through its research, but also through events and postgraduate teaching. In July 2018, the Wales Governance Centre launched a new project into Justice and Jurisdiction in Wales. The research will be an interdisciplinary project bringing together political scientists, constitutional law experts and criminologists in order to investigate: the operation of the justice system in Wales; the relationship between non-devolved and devolved policies; and the impact of a single ‘England and Wales’ legal system. CONTACT DETAILS Wales Governance Centre at Cardiff University, 21 Park Place, Cardiff, CF10 3DQ.

His PhD examined the constitutional relationship between the UK courts and the European Court of Human Rights. -
People, Places and Policy
People, Places and Policy Set within the context of UK devolution and constitutional change, People, Places and Policy offers important and interesting insights into ‘place-making’ and ‘locality-making’ in contemporary Wales. Combining policy research with policy-maker and stakeholder interviews at various spatial scales (local, regional, national), it examines the historical processes and working practices that have produced the complex political geography of Wales. This book looks at the economic, social and political geographies of Wales, which in the context of devolution and public service governance are hotly debated. It offers a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework for capturing the dynamics of locality-making, to go beyond the obsession with boundaries and coterminous geog- raphies expressed by policy-makers and politicians. Three localities – Heads of the Valleys (north of Cardiff), central and west coast regions (Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and the former district of Montgomeryshire in Powys) and the A55 corridor (from Wrexham to Holyhead) – are discussed in detail to illustrate this and also reveal the geographical tensions of devolution in contemporary Wales. This book is an original statement on the making of contemporary Wales from the Wales Institute of Social and Economic Research, Data and Methods (WISERD) researchers. It deploys a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework and innovative mapping techniques to represent spatial patterns in data. This allows the timely uncovering of both unbounded and fuzzy relational policy geographies, and the more bounded administrative concerns, which come together to produce and reproduce over time Wales’ regional geography.

Written Evidence Submitted by Professor Colin Riordan, Vice-Chancellor, Cardiff University (SPF0020)
Written evidence submitted by Professor Colin Riordan, Vice-Chancellor, Cardiff University (SPF0020) Overview i. Cardiff University is an ambitious and innovative university with a bold and strategic vision. Our world-leading research was ranked 5th for quality and 2nd for impact amongst UK universities in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework. We provide an educationally outstanding experience for our students. Driven by creativity and curiosity, we strive to fulfil our social, cultural and economic obligations to Cardiff, Wales, the UK and wider world. ii. Regional economic performance and social cohesion are factors crucial to the UK and Wales’s post- Brexit success and in emerging and rebuilding from the COVID-19 pandemic. It will be essential to address causes of disparities in prosperity and development (such as skills, innovation and the quality of place-based institutions) and not just focus on symptoms (such as unemployment). iii. The Shared Prosperity Fund comes at a crucial time for the Welsh economy and for Welsh universities. It offers a unique, generational opportunity to create a programme of investment that is designed and delivered in Wales, for Wales. The Fund is not and should not be simply about replacing the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF). iv. We believe a Shared Prosperity Fund must: Be ‘devolved by design’ Match current regional investment funding Allocate funding to Wales appropriately via a needs-based system Ring-fence funds to build research and innovation capacity Take a wider view of development, learning from the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 and recognising universities’ civic mission Run on a long-term basis (seven years as a minimum). -
22-24 August, 2018 Cardiff University, Wales, UK Conference Program
QMOD 21st International Conference on Quality and Service Sciences Conference Program 22-24 August, 2018 Cardiff University, Wales, UK 21st QMOD-ICQSS Conference The Quality Movement - where are we going? Past, Present, and Future Su Mi Dahlgaard-Park Dr. Professor Lund University Jens J. Dahlgaard Dr. Professor Linköping University The theme of the QMOD2018 conference invites participants to reflect on the evolution of total quality management (TQM) as the most widespread quality management approach during the last 30 years. Even though quality management approaches have been recognised and utilised by industry since the 1930s, the ‘arrival of TQM’ in the last part of the 1980s opened a new era in the quality movement. However, during the first 17 years of the new millennium, the term TQM seems to have lost its attractiveness in the industrialised parts of the world, and instead new terms such as Business Excellence, Organisational Excellence, Operational Excellence, Six Sigma, and Lean seem on the surface to have overtaken the leading position even though the contents of these new terms can and should be understood within the framework of TQM. Many practitioners perceive that these new terminologies are new management approaches which have replaced TQM and hence have little to do with quality approaches. Parallel with these tendencies, we can observe that the interest for TQM is growing in eastern European, some Asian countries (for example China) as well as in many new developing countries. There are, in those countries, numerous dynamic activities for learning, dissemination, promoting and implementing TQM. Also there is right now a growing interest to analyse and discuss the suitability of existing TQM frameworks in the 4th industrial revolution which will affect business environments – internal as well as external environments – including our living environments. -

The Politics of Publishing Select Committee Legal Advice
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by White Rose Research Online JOURNAL OF LAW AND SOCIETY doi 10.1111/jols.12153, APRIL 2019 ISSN: 0263-323X, pp. 1±29 Tacticians, Stewards, and Professionals: The Politics of Publishing Select Committee Legal Advice Ben Yong,* Greg Davies,** and Cristina Leston-Bandeira*** At Westminster, there are increasing pressures on select committees to publish in-house legal advice. We suggest that examining the process of deciding to publish provides useful insights into the provision, reception, and use of legal advice, and the dynamics of select com- mittees generally. We argue that the autonomy of select committees to decide what use they make of evidence and advice they receive is, in practice, constrained by the intra-institutional dynamics and practices of select committees. Committee actors ± parliamentarians, clerks, and parliamentary lawyers ± each have overlapping, sometimes competing, roles. Most of the time, these roles and the responsibilities they encom- pass coincide, but the prospect of publication reveals clear tensions between the different actors. This is the politics of publication: the tactical approach of politicians is in tension with the stewardship of clerks and the professional norms of parliamentary lawyers. We suggest this tension will only increase in the near future. * Law School, University of Hull, Hull HU6 7RX, England [email protected] ** Wales Governance Centre, School of Law and Politics, Cardiff University, Cardiff CF10 3AX, Wales [email protected] *** School of Politics and International Relations, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, England [email protected] We would like to thank the three anonymous referees and one parliamentary lawyer for their comments on an earlier draft of this article. -
Reform UK Wales on May 6Th Is a Vote to Support Our Vision for Unlocking the Potential of the UK Economy and All of the Benefits This Will Bring to Our Four Nations
SENEDD 2021 CONTRACT WITH THE PEOPLE OF WALES CHANGING POLITICS FOR GOOD OUR KEY PLEDGES A REFORM UK GOVERNMENT IN WALES WILL: ENSURE NO MORE LOCKDOWNS such that all people within an area, no matter how big or how small, have restrictions. CLEAR THE NHS BACKLOG CAUSED BY COVID by investing around £1 billion over the next four years to put waiting lists to pre-pandemic levels. GIVE PARENTS THE RIGHT TO TAKE THEIR CHILDREN ON HOLIDAY giving flexibility to take children out of the classroom for up to ten days. BUILD THE M4 RELIEF ROAD and new train stations to improve infrastructure in Wales. REDUCE THE COST OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT by cutting the number of local authorities and pass these savings on to the communities in Wales. 1 OUR BELIEFS Reform UK is not a new political party, rather we are the next phase in the evolution of what started as The Brexit Party. We are here because we see that there is a need to change. If Wales does not move forwards, we will move backwards on the world stage. Many of you put your trust in us in 2019, we are now asking you to do the same. One thing became very apparent between the Brexit Referendum in June 2016 and the UK finally leaving the EU in January 2020. Our political system was not fit for purpose. We have an antiquated electoral system designed to keep the two old parties in power. Millions who do vote have no representation at all, and millions more do not even bother to vote.
