It took him 3J hours and a sore sit-me-down, but he says it proves his case and was worth it. He says it was a public gesture, and we’ve to tell all firms who don’t use power tools about his 3J- hour ride and his sore sit-me-down. And when they say : “ Why does he waste time like that when he could travel by train ? ” we’ve got to answer : “ You should talk ! ” He says there's a moral in it.

  • Oldham Council Liberal Democrat Group Council Size Submission for the Electoral Review of Oldham Metropolitan Borough in 2020
    Oldham Council Liberal Democrat Group Council size submission for the electoral review of Oldham Metropolitan Borough in 2020 1. The need for change 2. Reductions in workload 3. The impact of modern methods 4. Benefits of a reduction in councillors 5. Impact on the electoral cycle 6. Impact on council services Page 1 of 4 1. The need for change Oldham Borough has had 60 councillors since it was created in its present form in 1985. That was doubtless a fair assessment of effort required then. But that was a long time ago. In every job function of the council but this, numbers have been drastically reduced by automation, slimmed-down administration, centralisation, and budget cuts. The public and our workforce note with resentment that the councillors have refused to ‘share the pain’ of cuts. The Liberal Democrat group has been advocating a reduction to 40 councillors (42 if our ward resizing proposal is accepted) for a number of years, but it has been rejected, partly on the grounds that it would need to involve the Electoral Commission. With the Electoral Commission reassessing Oldham at present, we believe it could and should happen now. 2. Reductions in workload The council has fewer functions and its budget has roughly halved in recent years. Its erstwhile biggest responsibility – schools and colleges – is mainly funded and controlled by central government. Housing is now under independent housing associations. Policing, transport, Fire and Rescue and strategic planning are sub-regional functions. There are roles on boards, but little involvement of rank and file councillors beyond governorships of individual schools.

  • CPRE – Devolution Discussion Paper (2016)
    DEVOLUTION: A DISCUSSION PAPER FOR CPRE BY LILLIAN BURNS JUNE 2016 1 Where is the government’s devolution of powers agenda heading? CPRE report, June 2016 FOREWORD With the exception of Brexit, the UK government’s devolution agenda for England - which officials describe as “fundamentally changing the way England is run” - is the most significant political process influencing CPRE’s work as we think about our Strategic Plan for 2017-2020. In light of this, we were delighted when Lillian Burns, Vice Chair of CPRE North West, offered to produce an impact assessment of the impact of devolution on CPRE’s work. I am sure you will agree that Lillian has produced a thought-provoking and timely “think piece” on some of the challenges ahead. In principle, CPRE supports empowering local communities – our 2026 Vision aspires to a future where “most decisions on land use are taken locally”. However, as Lillian outlines, there are a range of concerns about how devolution is currently being carried out, particularly in relation to transparency, accountability, and stakeholder engagement. The high degree of complexity involved, and the fact that each devolution deal is unique, presents further challenges for civil society. The devolution agenda has simply not been subjected to the degree of scrutiny that its importance warrants. As Lillian outlines, policy areas that can be devolved from central and local government to Combined Authorities include transport, strategic planning and housing. Given the centrality of these issues to CPRE’s work, we need to understand the devolution process and assess its impact. In the meantime, there is the increasing influence of Local Enterprise Partnerships to consider, not least their ability to make funding decisions based solely on economic growth, and their overall lack of accountability.

I owe him a great debt for helping me to turn my hazy ideas into a coherent piece of work, and reminding me how to study History again, after years spent in education. My thanks are also due to the staff of the School of History and of the University Library for their help and guidance. I have visited the following archive centres: West Yorkshire Archive Services at Halifax and Wakefield, Local Studies Centres at Oldham and Rochdale and The National Archive at Kew. Wherever I have gone, I have been helped with kindness, humour and outstanding professionalism for which I am extremely grateful. I am delighted that my friend and colleague Alastair Linden was able to help with ideas and proof reading.

Where a Representor has made more than one comment on the Draft Statement of Community Involvement these have been recorded separately. The following abbreviations are used in this document: LDF – Local Development Framework LDS – Local Development Scheme LDD – Local Development Document DPD – Development Plan Document SPD – Supplementary Planning Document SCI – Statement of Community Involvement RSS – Regional Spatial Strategy PPS12 – Planning Policy Statement 12 “Local Development Frameworks” EqIA – Equalities Impact Assessment 1 Countryside Agency Nature of Summary of representation Council’s response representation Other The SCI is unlikely to affect any of the Agency’s Noted. Landscape, Access or Recreation interests and therefore we have no specific comments to make. However, we do, of course, support and encourage effective community involvement within the planning system, including the preparation of the LDF. It is one of the Agency’s key principles that community involvement is considered essential to the achievement of our landscape, access and recreation interests in the new planning system. Local planning authorities are therefore encouraged to look at how they can successfully engage communities on these issues, and reflect this in the SCI. The Agency strongly supports community- planning initiatives, which we consider an essential part of good planning. We therefore support, for example, Village Design Statements and Concept Statements and are interested in incorporating these where possible in the new planning system.

It lies on undulating ground, on the course of the Rochdale Canal and north bank of the River Medlock. It is 2.7 miles (4.3 km) west-northwest of Ashton-under-Lyne, 2.9 miles (4.7 km) south-southwest of Oldham and 4.2 miles (6.8 km) to the east-northeast of Manchester city centre. Failsworth lies within the orbital M60 motorway, which Failsworth 2 skirts Failsworth's eastern boundary. Failsworth had a total population of 20,555 in 2001. Historically a part of Lancashire, until the 19th century Failsworth was a small agricultural township linked, ecclesiastically, with the parish of Manchester. Farming was the main industry of this rural area, with locals supplementing their incomes by hand-loom weaving in the domestic system. The introduction of textile manufacture during the Industrial Revolution facilitated a process of unplanned urbanisation in the area, giving rise to Failsworth as a mill town, marked architecturally by several large redbrick cotton mills.
