Development is regulated and controlled in the public interest, with those wishing to undertake all but minor development required to first seek permission. This permission is sought from local authorities charged with the responsibility of managing planning legislation. 1.1.2 To ensure that decisions about the granting of planning permission are seen to be fair, open and reasonable, local authorities are required to prepare publicly available plans containing policies and proposals to guide the shape and nature of development in their areas.

  • Transport for the South East – Consent for Submission of Proposal to Government
    CABINET 7 APRIL 2020 TRANSPORT FOR THE SOUTH EAST – CONSENT FOR SUBMISSION OF PROPOSAL TO GOVERNMENT Portfolio Holder: Councillor Phil Filmer, Portfolio Holder for Front Line Services Report from: Richard Hicks, Director of Place and Deputy Chief Executive Author: Michael Edwards, Head of Integrated Transport Summary This report seeks Cabinet support for the creation of a Sub-National Transport Body for the South East, confirmation of Medway’s position as a constituent authority, and consent for the submission of a Proposal to Government for statutory status. 1. Budget and Policy Framework 1.1 Medway Council does not have a stated policy position on Sub-National Transport Bodies. It is possible, however, to align the principles behind its creation with the Council’s priority of maximising regeneration and economic growth. 2. Background 2.1 Transport for the South East (TfSE) formed as a shadow Sub-National Transport Body (STB) in June 2017, and brings together sixteen local transport authorities: Bracknell Forest, Brighton and Hove, East Sussex, Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Medway, Kent, Portsmouth, Reading, Slough, Southampton, Surrey, West Berkshire, West Sussex, Windsor and Maidenhead and Wokingham. The Shadow Partnership Board also includes arrangements for involving five Local Enterprise Partnerships in its governance process, along with two National Park Authorities, forty-four Boroughs and Districts in East Sussex, Hampshire, Kent, Surrey and West Sussex, and representatives from the transport industry. 2.2 TfSE’s aim, as set out in its vision statement, is to grow the South East’s economy by delivering a safe, sustainable, and integrated transport system that makes the South East area more productive and competitive, improves the quality of life for all residents, and protects and enhances its natural and built environment.

  • Download Annual Public Health Report
    Choosing Health in Medway The Annual Report of the Director of Public Health 2004 Medway Teaching Primary Care Trust As Chair of Medway Teaching Primary Care Trust I welcome the first Annual Health Report of our Director of Public Health, Dr Anita Sims. As part of our National Health Service, Medway PCT has two major objectives:- - to improve the health of the people of Medway, and - to reduce health inequalities in our communities If we are to achieve these objectives we need a base from which to start and an effective plan of action. This Annual Report forms the foundation on which this process is based and Dr Sims, as a member of Medway PCT’s Board, will be instrumental in guiding the continuing development of our health policies by helping us ensure that priorities are determined by reference to it. Healthy communities can only be achieved by consensus and with people and organisations working together effectively. We have achieved significant success already in this, particularly in terms of our integrated working with Medway Council. I am delighted with the support of Medway Council and the commitment of staff to this process in both organisations and look forward to the continuing development of these arrangements which are so crucial to the well-being of our community. Eddie Anderson Chairman Medway PCT I am very pleased to have the opportunity to contribute to the first Annual Health Report of the Director of Public Health since 1991. The importance of health, a feeling of well-being and an active, healthy lifestyle cannot be underestimated.

  • Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System
    Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System As submitted to the European Commission in April 2012 following the first stage of their scrutiny process This document has been issued by the Department of Energy and Climate Change, together with the Devolved Administrations for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. April 2012 UK’s National Implementation Measures submission – April 2012 Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System As submitted to the European Commission in April 2012 following the first stage of their scrutiny process On 12 December 2011, the UK submitted to the European Commission the UK’s National Implementation Measures (NIMs), containing the preliminary levels of free allocation of allowances to installations under Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System (2013-2020), in accordance with Article 11 of the revised ETS Directive (2009/29/EC). In response to queries raised by the European Commission during the first stage of their assessment of the UK’s NIMs, the UK has made a small number of modifications to its NIMs. This includes the introduction of preliminary levels of free allocation for four additional installations and amendments to the preliminary free allocation levels of seven installations that were included in the original NIMs submission. The operators of the installations affected have been informed directly of these changes. The allocations are not final at this stage as the Commission’s NIMs scrutiny process is ongoing. Only when all installation-level allocations for an EU Member State have been approved will that Member State’s NIMs and the preliminary levels of allocation be accepted.

Previous management plan The site has benefited from a previous management plan; Berengrave Local Nature Reserve Site Management Plan 2006-2011 Medway Council in Partnership with Friends of Berengrave. This previous management plan provided a vision for the site alongside management aims. These are as follows: Vision: “Berengrave will be managed to enhance the habitats, flora and fauna, and to restore areas of historic significance. Management will foster public interest and ownership through improved access and continued consultation, allowing the development of recreation, interpretation and education”. In the previous management Green Flag award Criteria was used to help formulate the aims by which the Vision could be achieved. These Aims are as follows: Positively welcome visitors to Berengrave, in terms of physical, intellectual and social access. Ensure a healthy, safe and secure experience for users. Provide a well-maintained and clean reserve. Improve the environmental quality and sustainability of practices carried out on the reserve. Maintain and develop the ecological and conservation value of the full range of wildlife habitats and heritage sites, whilst ensuring access and provision for users. Provide opportunities to further increase community use and involvement through events, education and interpretation. Ensure effective promotion of the reserve as an important wildlife and community resource. Ensure all those involved in the management and maintenance of Berengrave Nature reserve effectively use the Management Plan as a working document.
