Geography Notes and Definitions Regional Trends 43 2010/11 Geography Notes and Definitions Statistical Regions of the United Kingdom The statistical regions of the UK comprise the Regions of England together with Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Regions: England The Regions of England were formerly known as Government Office Regions (GORs) until their closure in March 2011. Government Offices for the Regions were established across England in 1994. In 1996, GORs became the primary classification for the presentation of regional statistics. The Government Office for the North West merged with the Government Office for Merseyside in August 1998. In tables, the East of England (formerly the Eastern Region) is referred to as East. Local government England The local government structure remains largely as defined at 1 April 1998. The implementation of local government reorganisation in England took place in four phases on 1 April in each year between 1995 and 1998. The reorganisation involved only the non-metropolitan counties. Unitary Authorities (UAs) replaced the two-tier system of County Councils and Local Authority District Councils in parts of some shire counties and, in some instances, across the whole county. For statistical purposes grouping UAs by geography can be helpful. By legal definition all unitary authorities in England are counties. However, for many purposes the unitary authorities are treated as districts. For the majority of unitary authorities their establishment was achieved without geographical change. However, for a few unitary authorities, there were some boundary changes at District and Ward levels, most notably, the County of Herefordshire UA in the West Midlands and Peterborough UA in the East of England. On the 1 April 2009 there was a further local government reorganisation that created nine further unitary authorities in England. The tables will change to include these as datasets move onto the new geography. The map shows both old and new administrative areas. Details of the changes are given below (continued after map). x Country Durham UA comprises the former districts of Chester-le-Street, Derwentside, Durham, Easington, Sedgefield, Teesdale and Wear Valley x Northumberland UA comprises the former districts of Alnwick, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Blyth Valley, Castle Morpeth, Tynedale and Wansbeck x Cheshire East UA comprises the former districts of Congleton, Crewe and Nantwich and Macclesfield x Cheshire West and Chester UA comprises the former districts of Chester, Ellesmere Port & Neston and Vale Royal 260 Regional Trends 43 2010/11 Counties and unitary authorities in England, 19981 and 20092 1 Hartlepool Local government structure 2 Middlesbrough post April 20092 3 Redcar and Cleveland 4 Stockton-on-Tees 5 Darlington 6 Halton County Durham 7 Warrington 8 Blackburn with Darwen 9 Blackpool 10 East Riding of Yorkshire 11 City of Kingston upon Hull 12 North East Lincolnshire 13 North Lincolnshire Northumberland 14 York A 15 Derby North 16 Leicester Tyne and Wear B 17 Rutland East Met.

It has been used since 1988 in EU legislation for determining the distribution of the Structural Funds. The NUTS five-tier structure for the United Kingdom (UK) was reviewed during 1998 as a consequence of the move to using Government Office Regions as the principal classification for English Regions and the local government re-organisation that took place in the same year. The NUTS structure comprises current national administrative areas, except in Scotland where some NUTS areas comprise whole and/or part local enterprise company areas. As a result of a European Union-wide NUTS regulation enacted in June 2003 it is now obligatory to use the NUTS geographies in the regulation (including the new codes). There are only minimal changes for the UK, although NUTS levels 4 and 5 no longer have any official status and should be referred to as LAU (Local Administrative Unit) 1 and 2 respectively. The NUTS classification is reviewed periodically: the latest changes were agreed in 2008. 264 Regional Trends 43 2010/11 NUTS levels 1, 2 and 3 in England,1 2008 NUTS level 3 areas 1 Tyneside 41 Buckinghamshire CC 2 Sunderland 42 Bedfordshire CC 3 Darlington 43 Luton 4 Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees 44 Outer London - West and North West 5 South Teeside 45 Inner London - West 6 Blackpool 46 Inner London - East 7 Blackburn with Darwen 47 Outer London - East and North East 8 Sefton 48 Outer London - South 9 Liverpool 49 Thurrock 10 East Merseyside 50 Southend-on-Sea 11 Greater Manchester North Northumberland 51 Medway 12 Greater Manchester South Northumberland and 52 Bristol, City of 13 York Tyne and Wear 53 Bath and North East Somerset, North 14 Bradford Somerset and South Gloucestershire 1 15 Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield 54 Swindon 16

  • At This Election We Risk Losing So Much of What We Value in Our Society
    At this election we risk losing so much of what we value in our society. The Green Party will stand up for what matters. A properly funded NHS, free from the threat of the profit motive. Good schools for all our children, so they can make the most of their potential without being selected by ability or restricted by a narrow regime of testing Young people should have the opportunities that my generation had – a free university education and the freedom to live, work and study abroad We welcome EU citizens and want them to stay; not have their family life and work prospects threatened. We'll give the public a vote on the terms of the Brexit deal. Protection for the environment and urgent action on climate change. The UK's commitment to the Paris climate change agreement is meaningless without action. Instead of undermining renewable energy technology and its potential to create jobs, the Green Party will invest in them. We won't subsidise fossil fuels or the white elephant that is Hinkley nuclear power station. We'll invest in public transport, walking and cycling, and scrap the major roads programme. Green Party membership and votes are growing locally and across the country. Shrewsbury has just elected its first Green member of Shropshire Council and the town council. If elected I'd support farmers and small businesses against the harmful effects of a hard Brexit; campaign against the damaging and wasteful North West Relief Road; and work to keep local public services strong and properly funded. I've lived in Shrewsbury since 2000 and my two children went to Meole Brace School and Shrewsbury Sixth Form College.

  • Worcestershire Has Fluctuated in Size Over the Centuries
    HUMAN GENETICS IN WORCESTERSHIRE AND THE SHAKESPEARE COUNTRY I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Abet ystwyth Received7.x.66 1.INTRODUCTION THEwestern limits of Worcestershire lie about thirty miles to the east of Offa's Dyke—the traditional boundary between England and Wales —yet Evesham in the south-eastern part of the county is described by its abbot in a petition to Thomas Cromwell in as situated within the Principality of Wales. The Star Chamber Proceedings (No. 4) in the reign of Henry VII refer to the bridge of stone at Worcester by which the king's subjects crossed from England into Wales and the demonstrations against the Act of 1430 regulating navigation along the Severn were supported by large numbers of Welshmen living on the right bank of the river in Worcestershire. The object of the investigation is to ascertain whether significant genetic differences exist in the population of Worcestershire and south-western Warwickshire and, in particular, whether the people living west of the Severn are more akin to the Welsh than to the English. The possibility of determining, on genetic grounds, whether the Anglo- Saxon penetration was strongest from the south up the rivers Severn and Avon, or across the watershed from the Trent in the north, or from the east through Oxfordshire and Warwickshire is also explored. 2. THECOUNTY Worcestershirehas fluctuated in size over the centuries and Stratford-on-Avon came for a period under its jurisdiction while Shipston-on-Stour, now a Warwickshire township, remained in one of the detached portions of Worcestershire until the turn of the present century.
