The assessment compared the available monitoring data to national air quality standards in order to identify any existing exceedences of the standards. Data was gathered from various national and local sources with regard to atmospheric emissions from: road traffic; rail; aircraft; shipping; industrial processes; intensive farming operations; domestic properties; biomass plants; and dusty processes. The screening methods outlined in the technical guidance were used to determine the likelihood that a particular source would result in an exceedence of national air quality standards. The review of new and changed emission sources identified no sources that were likely to

  • Briefing on Results of 2020 Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation
    BRIEFING ON RESULTS OF 2020 SCOTTISH INDEX OF MULTIPLE DEPRIVATION The SIMD2020 has just been published – the 6th edition to date. It is important to note that looking at changes in rankings over time must be treated with caution. An area’s ranking may ’improve’ because things have got worse in other areas and not necessarily due to improvements in the area itself – it could even have got worse but not by as much as has happened in other areas. Similarly, an area’s ranking may get worse not because its actual situation has worsened - it may even have improved - but that the situation in other areas has improved by more. The results indicate a slight ‘drift’ of areas of South Lanarkshire to lower levels of relative deprivation. They also suggest that relative to Scotland Income deprivation has overtaken Employment deprivation in South Lanarkshire – for the first time the relative rate is higher for Income than Employment. The domains where South Lanarkshire has the greatest number of datazones amongst the 20% Most Deprived are for Health and for Income Deprivation – nearly a quarter of South Lanarkshire areas are in both however, the largest number in the 5% Most Deprived are for Education. This has generally been the case in previous iterations of the SIMD. A) In the SIMD2020, of South Lanarkshire’s 431 datazones, a total of 88 or 20.4% of South Lanarkshire’s datazones were amongst the 20% Most Deprived in Scotland – a net fall of 1 from the SIMD2016. South Lanarkshire accounted for a greater proportion of Scottish datazones in the 20% Most Deprived than its share of all datazones – 6.31% compared to 6.18%.

AMUS MACPHERSON, " Editor of the People's Centenary Edition of Burns. | until ton PRINTED AT THE "ADVERTISER" OFFICE, BY WM. NAISMITH. 1862. V-* 13EFERKING- to a recent Advertisement, -*-*; in which I assert that all my Black and Coloured Cloths are Woaded—or, in other wards, based with Indigo —a process which,, permanently prevents them from assuming that brownish appearance (daily apparent on the street) which they acquire after being for a time in use. As a guarantee for what I state, I pledge myself that every piece, before being taken into stock, is subjected to a severe chemical test, which in ten seconds sets the matter at rest. I have commenced the Clothing with the fullest conviction that "what is worth doing is worth doing well," to accomplish which I shall leave " no stone untamed" to render my Establishment as much a " household word " ' for Gentlemen's Clothing as it has become for the ' Unique Shirt." I do not for a moment deny that Woaded Cloths are kept by other respectable Clothiers ; but I give the double assurance that no other is kept in my stock—a pre- caution that will, I have no doubt, ultimately serve my purpose as much as it must serve that of my Customers. Nearly 30 years' experience as a Tradesman has convinced " me of the hollowness of the Cheap" outcry ; and I do believe that most people, who, in an incautious moment, have been led away by the delusive temptation of buying ' cheap, have been experimentally taught that ' Cheapness" is not Economy.

  • The Development of Positive Values Through a Democratic Approach to Learning
    ‘We’re citizens now’!: the development of positive values through a democratic approach to learning. Henry Maitles University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland Isabel Gilchrist Stonelaw High School, Rutherglen, South Lanarkshire, Scotland Introduction: education for citizenship Education for citizenship is intrinsically bound up with democracy. In particular, the feeling that young people are citizens now (as opposed to in the future) and that democracy has to be fostered from a young age are central issues in the formal proposals put to governments in Britain by both the Advisory Group (1998) in England and the Review Group (2002) in Scotland. There is a near moral panic in Britain (indeed in most representative democracies around the world) that young people are apathetic, alienated and disinterested in politics. In Britain, there is the example of the recent European Union election in 1999 in which, as a whole, turnout was barely above 20%, in some areas just in double figures and amongst the 18-24 year olds much lower than for the population as a whole. And, indeed, for those who felt that whatever happened in this ‘less important’ election, the General Election would hold up, June 7th. 2001 showed that this was over optimistic; turnout was under 60%, the lowest since 1918. Put bluntly, more people voted for the winner of ‘Big Brother’ on Channel 4 than voted in the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Assembly and London Mayoral elections combined in 1999. Even more worryingly, the Scottish Parliament, described as having the raison d’etre of bringing interest in politics and participation closer to the people and, consequently providing a forum that would reverse the trend in terms of voting participation, achieved a sub 50% turnout in May 2003.
