  • The Limited Capacity of Management to Rescue UK Defence Policy: a Review and a Word of Caution
    The limited capacity of management to rescue UK defence policy: a review and a word of caution TREVOR TAYLOR* The three dimensions of defence In terms of press coverage and political debate, the story of British defence since the end of the Cold War has been marked by three themes: policy (direction and review), management (shortcomings and initiatives), and military opera- tions, although academic studies and courses tend to neglect the management domain.1 In principle, these three elements should be closely linked, with policy defining the evolving state of the world and constraining the direction of the country’s military response, management delivering the leadership, organiza- tion and coordination to build the forces to enable the policy to be implemented, and military operations being undertaken in line with the policy guidance and management preparations made. In practice, however, there have been significant disjunctions between the operations mounted and the policy and management. Military operations launched since 1990 have all been something of a surprise, most of them requiring significant extra funding to be obtained through Urgent Operational Requirements (UORs) to enhance and modify British capabilities before the operations could begin. The concept of Force Elements at Readiness (FE@R), the key output of the mainstream defence budget, came to be recognized in the MoD as of only limited utility unless consideration of the specific attributes of a particular adversary, the physical environment of the envisaged operation and the contribution of allies were also included in the equation. Also, in some cases a policy decision associated with specific changes in military posture was significantly undermined or even contradicted by events.

  • The Referendum on Separation for Scotland

List of written evidence Page 1 Professor Bernard Ryan, Law School, University of Kent 1 2 Francis Tusa, Editor, Defence Analysis 8 3 Professor Jo Shaw, University of Edinburgh 14 4 Dr Phillips O’Brien, Scottish Centre for War Studies, University of Glasgow 21 5 Electoral Commission 24 6 Rt Hon Michael Moore MP, Secretary of State for Scotland 28 7 Ministry of Defence 29 8 Brian Buchan, Chief Executive, Scottish Engineering 46 9 Babcock 47 Written evidence from Professor Bernard Ryan, Law School, University of Kent Introduction If Scotland were to become independent, its relationship with the United Kingdom would have to be defined in the fields of nationality law and immigration law and policy. This note offers a summary of the relationship between the Irish state1 and the United Kingdom in those fields, and some thoughts on possible implications for Scottish independence. 1. Nationality Law 1.1 The Irish case A new nationality The nationality law of a new state must necessarily provide for two matters: an initial population of nationals on the date of independence, and the acquisition and loss of nationality on an ongoing basis. In the case of the Irish state, the initial population was defined by Article 3 of the Irish Free State Constitution of 1922. Article 3 conferred Irish Free State citizenship upon a person if they were domiciled in the “area of the jurisdiction of the Irish Free State” on the date the state was founded (6 December 1922), provided (a) they had been resident in that area for the previous seven years, or (b) they or one of their parents had been born in “Ireland”.2 A full framework of nationality law, covering all aspects of acquisition and loss of nationality, was not then adopted until the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1935.

  • Earthquake Effects on Nuclear Safety-Related Large Floating Structures
    Transactions , SMiRT-23 Manchester, United Kingdom - August 10-14, 2015 Division IV , Paper ID 355 EARTHQUAKE EFFECTS ON NUCLEAR SAFETY-RELATED LARGE FLOATING STRUCTURES Ross Mackenzie 1, and Dimitrios Kourepinis 2 1 Nuclear Engineer, Mott MacDonald, UK 2 Principal Nuclear Engineer, Mott MacDonald, UK ABSTRACT Large floating structures are of interest in several fields including nuclear power generation, defence, oil and gas extraction and transportation. In each area safety is a key concern, but none more so than in nuclear safety-related structures. The design of large floating structures must take into consideration several sources of dynamic loading, such as wind, water currents and any associated fluid-structure interaction effects. However, little attention may be given to seismic effects due to limited guidance in relevant engineering codes and standards. During earthquake events, the vertical seismic demand can be amplified at the level of the floating structure thereby introducing a risk with potentially detrimental effects. There is growing evidence that subsea earthquake ground motions amplify the characteristics of the fluid medium, resulting in an increased dynamic loading on the structure. Even in shallow water depths, the water column directly beneath the structure can amplify the vertical component of the earthquake significantly. In slightly deeper water, cavitation becomes an additional issue due to pressures from incident and reflecting waves. This paper presents an overview of the issues associated with seismically induced loading on large floating structures, illustrated with examples and followed by recommendations for seismic analysis. INTRODUCTION Current standards recognise the need for consideration of additional loading due to undersea earthquakes but provide no guidance as how to calculate and apply these loads.

  • Cambridgshire Memories of the Cold War Era
    Cambridgshire Memories of the Cold War era Our mission: to research, record and archive the local history of the Cold War era ฀ working with Cambridgeshire residents to tell our stories and commemorate 30 years since the Fall of The Berlin Wall. SpyNet is a National Heritage Lottery Funded project, led by New International Theatre Company. Thanks to partners The Norris Museum, Ramsey Neighbourhoods Trust, Ramsey Youth Club (Crunch) and The Library Presents. Introduction The following texts are transcriptions of interviews from people who give a variety of personal perspectives on the Cold War. These are mainly from those serving professionally with RAF, USAFE, Civil Defence or the Intelligence services; but also included are the insights of a teenager growing up on a base, an artist who lived on the Soviet side of the Iron Curtain and the memories of people who protested at Molesworth. The memories begin in the '60s and cover the height of the Cold War in the '80s. The contributors all have a connection to Cambridgeshire, highlighting the importance of this period of history for the region. Today the activities have changed, USAFE U2 spy planes no longer fly from Alconbury and the RAF Nimrods no longer fly from Wyton, however cyber-espionage continues apace at undisclosed locations. The physical landscape is changing too with RAF Molesworth, Alconbury and Upwood all facing closure and re-purposing to housing development, but the memories stay with those who lived through a unique historical era. 1 2 contents 1.

  • Part 4: Conclusions and Recommendations & Appendices
    Twentieth Century Naval Dockyards Devonport and Portsmouth: Characterisation Report PART FOUR CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The final focus of this report is to develop the local, national and international contexts of the two dockyards to highlight specific areas of future research. Future discussion of Devonport and Portsmouth as distinct designed landscapes would coherently organise the many strands identified in this report. The Museum of London Archaeology Portsmouth Harbour Hinterland Project carried out for Heritage England (2015) is a promising step in this direction. It is emphasised that this study is just a start. By delivering the aim and objectives, it has indicated areas of further fruitful research. Project aim: to characterise the development of the active naval dockyards at Devonport and Portsmouth, and the facilities within the dockyard boundaries at their maximum extent during the twentieth century, through library, archival and field surveys, presented and analysed in a published report, with a database of documentary and building reports. This has been delivered through Parts 1-4 and Appendices 2-4. Project objectives 1 To provide an overview of the twentieth century development of English naval dockyards, related to historical precedent, national foreign policy and naval strategy. 2 To address the main chronological development phases to accommodate new types of vessels and technologies of the naval dockyards at Devonport and Portsmouth. 3 To identify the major twentieth century naval technological revolutions which affected British naval dockyards. 4 To relate the main chronological phases to topographic development of the yards and changing technological and strategic needs, and identify other significant factors. 5 To distinguish which buildings are typical of the twentieth century naval dockyards and/or of unique interest.

  • Summary History of the Trust a Personal Recollection
    Summary History of the Trust A Personal Recollection Prepared by Peter Goodship Consultant Chief Executive June 2020 1. Introduction It is often said by historians seeking to justify their existence that "if you don't know where you have come from you cannot possibly know where you are going". The Chairman thought it might be helpful if I were to provide all current trustees with a potted history of the Trust from its inception in 1985 to assist your review of strategy. As part of my then role as Chief Executive’s Staff Officer, I was tasked by Portsmouth City Council to set up the Trust after having led the discussions with various agencies in the wake of the 1982 Defence Review. Several of you will recognise aspects of the history from your personal involvement and will no doubt have your own gloss on events and be in a position to expand on them. The views I express are my own, distilled from personal recollection and from research of our minute books, an extraordinarily valuable and precious archive. I have supplemented my own history with a copy of our last published account of our work covering the first twenty years from 1986 to 2006. This adds some colour to the narrative as well as capturing events I have not had the opportunity to cover in this summary. The document pre-dates the Trust’s acquisition of Priddy’s Hard and Explosion Museum from Gosport Borough Council and our revised proposals for the re-use of Boathouse 4. 2. The 1982 John Knott Review of Defence The Trust was born out of the Defence Review of 1982 which led to the closure of Chatham Dockyard, the privatisation of Devonport Dockyard and the slimming down of Portsmouth from a major ship building and repair facility to a Fleet Maintenance and Repair Organisation (FMRO).

  • RAF Lyneham Since the Base Closure Was Announced in 2003
    Statement of Community Consultation Planning Application Document F | May 2013 Defence College of Technical Training Lyneham i Executive Summary This report set out how the development proposals have been informed through consultation with a wide range of stakeholders and the local community. The project team has undertaken detailed discussions with various Council departments, the Royal Wootton Bassett and Cricklade Area Board, Lyneham and Bradenstoke Parish Council and technical stakeholders (Natural England, English Heritage, Environment Agency and Highways Agency). In addition the local community has been consulted via a public exhibition in March 2013. A project website (www.mod.uk/lynehamplanning) was set up to keep interested parties informed and display exhibition material for those that could not make it the consultation event. The proposals have also been designed in close consultation with internal stakeholders. Subject matter experts from each of the current schools have worked closely with the MOD Defence Technical Training Change Programme Team (DTT CPT) and with DIO and its design team to develop a schedule of estate requirements, including building requirements and external training area requirements. The consultation process has confirmed and reinforced some of the initial understanding of the likely impacts of the development proposals and has assisted in addressing the key issues in discussions with technical stakeholders and through the completion of a number of technical assessments. Consultation will continue with the submission of the planning application. There will be continuing discussions and engagement with Wiltshire Council, Lyneham and Bradenstoke Parish Council and other local stakeholders, particularly through the Lyneham Steering Group. h:\projects-mod\32655 dttcp lyneham\4 general\4 planning\dctt application\part f community\community consultation May 2013 rr152.doc 32655rr152 ii Contents 1.
