The focus on economic growth and sustainable communities should deliver considerable population and human health benefits by the provision of delivering housing and employment opportunities to all, including the most deprived communities, and encouraging the creation of a well-designed and pleasant living and working environment. It will also deliver sound environmental benefits through strong protection for the region’s biodiversity and cultural heritage, as well as the sustainable use of land. The commitment to improve connectivity and accessibility should promote more sustainable transport patterns and reduce congestion in the region. The policy has been appraised significantly positive for both health and population. Mitigation Measures None proposed. Assumptions This assessment assumes that these policies are implemented in full to mitigate the environmental impacts assorted with development. Uncertainty The scale of the effects will depend on the volume, nature and location of the development across the plan period and beyond. 2 Appendix D November 2012 Appendix D - SEA of Revocation of North East Regional Strategy Alternative Commentary Air Soil Water and fauna Landscape Population & human Health Material assets Climatic factors Cultural Heritage Biodiversity, flora S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L Revocation + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Likely Significant Effects of Revocation + + + The National Planning Policy Framework sets out a range of closely related principles, governing sustainable development, which will, when the regional strategy is abolished, stand in their stead. A core principle of the NPPF is for planning to drive and support sustainable economic development. The NPPF framework core principles (paragraph 17) expects that planning should proactively drive and support sustainable economic development and address environmental issues. All of the themes set out in the policy run throughout the NPPF so it should be read as a whole. These considerations will continue to inform the preparation of local plans and development management. The Government’s Economic White Paper (published October 2010) sets out its vision for local growth, shifting power away from central government to local communities, citizens and independent providers. This means recognising that where drivers of growth are local, decisions should be made locally. The Plan for Growth document (included in the Budget 2011) confirms the Government’s commitment to ensuring that the planning system supports growth. Moreover since this policy was developed Local Economic Partnerships (LEPs) have developed their own area of focus, based on Function Economic Market Areas (FEMAs). Local plans will continue to be subject to sustainability appraisal, including consideration of the natural and built environment, which will assess how sustainable development has been integrated into plans, and the impact of policy options. It is considered that the positive effects of revocation will remain the same as they were for retention. 3 Appendix D November 2012 Appendix D - SEA of Revocation of North East Regional Strategy Alternative Commentary Air Soil Water and fauna Landscape Population & human Health Material assets Climatic factors Cultural Heritage Biodiversity, flora S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures have been identified.

This policy seeks to embed sustainable development – applying the guiding principles behind the UK Sustainable Development Strategy 2005 and the Integrated Regional Framework - at the heart of plan policies and decision-making in the region, although it does not contain any spatially specific policy. This policy seeks to identify areas and networks of Green Infrastructure to enable improved accessibility to a healthy environment whilst protecting sites of international biodiversity value. Indirectly this will have significant positive benefits on soils. Like Policy 1, there should be significant benefits across SEA themes. This policy recognises key principles that will deliver economic growth in a manner which help ensure protection of the environment and take into account wider social issues. The policy is reflected within the RES which identifies the need to raise education attainment and improve the skills of the existing workforce to increase and 5 Appendix D November 2012 Appendix D - SEA of Revocation of North East Regional Strategy Air Alternative Soil Commentary Water and fauna Landscape Population & human Health Material assets Climatic factors Cultural Heritage Biodiversity, flora S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L S M L diversify the regions business stock.

Paragraph 6 of the NPPF identifies that it is the purpose of the planning system is to contribute to the achievement of sustainable development. It makes specific reference to the five “guiding principles” of sustainable development set out in the UK Sustainable Development Strategy Securing the future. These are: living within the planet’s environmental limits; ensuring a strong, healthy and just society; achieving a sustainable economy; promoting good governance; and using sound science responsibly. The policies in paragraphs 18 to 219, taken as a whole, constitute the Government’s view of what sustainable development in England means in practice for the planning system.

The NPPF contains a presumption in favour of sustainable development (paragraphs 11 to 16) which is stated as being the golden thread running through both plan-making and decision making Policy 2 contains three objectives (Environmental, Social and Economic) which include a series of criteria which need to be delivered through planning proposals and development plans. • Environmental Objectives. Part 2.1 of the policy identifies a series of objectives which include ensuring good air quality, protecting and enhancing biodiversity, preventing development in the floodplain and to protect and enhance cultural heritage.

  • The Works Brass Band – a Historical Directory of the Industrial and Corporate Patronage and Sponsorship of Brass Bands
    The works brass band – a historical directory of the industrial and corporate patronage and sponsorship of brass bands Gavin Holman, January 2020 Preston Corporation Tramways Band, c. 1910 From the earliest days of brass bands in the British Isles, they have been supported at various times and to differing extents by businesses and their owners. In some cases this support has been purely philanthropic, but there was usually a quid pro quo involved where the sponsor received benefits – e.g. advertising, income from band engagements, entertainment for business events, a “worthwhile” pastime for their employees, corporate public relations and brand awareness - who would have heard of John Foster’s Mills outside of the Bradford area if it wasn’t for the Black Dyke Band? One major sponsor and supporter of brass bands, particularly in the second half of the 19th century, was the British Army, through the Volunteer movement, with upwards of 500 bands being associated with the Volunteers at some time – a more accurate estimate of these numbers awaits some further analysis. However, I exclude these bands from this paper, to concentrate on the commercial bodies that supported brass bands. I am also excluding social, civic, religious, educational and political organisations’ sponsorship or support. In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a band, composed of workers from a particular company or industry was supported by the business or not. The “workmen’s band” was often a separate entity, supported by a local trade union or other organisation. For the purposes of this review I will be including them unless there is specific reference to a trade union or other social organisation.

Thus, all matters that hold well into the future owing to the largest economic relate to mineral resources and their production are State and demonstrated resources (EDRs) (mineral resources for which Territory issues. Except for the Australian Capital Territory profitable extraction or production is possible at current prices) (that is the capital city of Canberra and environs), all Australian of lead, nickel, mineral sands, tantalum, uranium, and zinc. States and Territories have identified mineral resources and EDRs are approximately equal to reserves as defined by the established mineral industries.

In 1992, Australia’s highest court recognized that the Additionally, Australia’s level of EDRs is within the top six country’s indigenous people have legally recognizable rights to worldwide for 11 additional mineral commodities—bauxite, land and that these rights were based in the traditional laws and black coal, brown coal, cobalt, copper, gold, iron ore, lithium, customs of these aboriginal people.

    Association for Industrial Archaeology Annual Conference 1997, Newcastle upon Tyne Tour Notes Prepared by Ian Ayris & John Clayson 5th -12th September 1997 Assrciation for Industrial Archaeology Annual Conference 1997 Tour Notes SATURDAY 6th SEPTEMBER EXCURSION A BOWES RAILWAY Guides - Phillip Dawe and the members and vol eers of the Bowes Railway Company The Bowes Railway was one of a number of extensive colliery rarlways in North East England which date from the pioneering perid of locomotive dwelopment, its first sections being laid out in 1826. The first section was budt for Lord Ravensworth and Partners and ran from Mount Moor Colliery at Black Fell ( south of Gateshead) to Springwell Colliery ( then being sunk ) and then on to new staithes on the River Tyne at Jarrow, a distance of 6.25 miles. As their engineer the Partners employed George Stephensorq though in riew of his commitments to the Stockton and Darlinglon Railway at the same time it is unlikely that he supewised its construction. Although the line was to use three rope-worked inclines for its first 2.25 miles , the last four to Jarrow were to be worked by tw'o locomotives, these almost certainly being the hrst two to be ordered from the famous locomotive builders Robert Stephenson & Company of Newcastle. tr{ou'ever their delivery was delayed and so the section from Springwell to Jarrow was opened using horses on lTth January 1826; the extension to Black fell followed about six months later. In May 1842 an extension to this line was opened to Kibblesworth Colliery, 2.5 miles further west on the opposite side of the Team Valley and comprised two more inclines.
