Accounting for the Fund The Companies Act 1985 does not apply to all public bodies but the principles that underlie the Act’s accounting and disclosure requirements are of general application: their purpose is to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the body concerned. The Government therefore has decided that the accounts of public bodies should be prepared in a way that conforms as closely as possible with the Act’s requirements and also complies with Accounting Standards where applicable. The accounts are prepared in accordance with accounts directions issued by the Secretary of State for Transport. The Fund’s accounts consolidate the General Lighthouse Authorities’ (GLAs) accounts and comply as appropriate with this policy. The notes to the Bishop Rock Lighthouse accounts contain further information. Section 211(5) of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995 requires the Secretary of State to lay the Fund’s accounts before Parliament.

  • St. Finbarr's Catholic Church, Bantry
    Bantry Historical and Archaeological Society Journal article, Nov.-Dec. 2017 3,000-7,000 words inc. footnotes, up to 6-7 images St. Finbarr’s Catholic Church, Bantry: a history1 Richard J. Butler 11 Dec. 2017 St. Finbarr’s Catholic Church in Bantry has a long and rich history, and is widely regarded as one of the most important buildings in the town and surrounding area. It has recently undergone an extensive refurbishment, including the complete reconstruction of its historic pipe organ, the installation of a new floor and the repointing of much of the exterior stonework. Within the next decade will be the bicentenary of its construction. The purpose of this article is to offer a history of the church over the past two centuries, with particular focus on developments in the twentieth century. I will also comment on the church’s earlier history, about which there is some degree of uncertainty. The most comprehensive history of St. Finbarr’s to date is an article by one of Bantry’s most distinguished local historians, Donal Fitzgerald, a copy of which is kept in Bantry Museum. 2 In writing this history I am greatly indebted to his local knowledge and years of painstaking research. There are also some shorter histories – for example in the recent Bantry Historic Town Map, and in the tourist information boards placed around the town.3 There is also in preparation, and due for publication hopefully in 2018 or 2019, the Buildings of Ireland volume for Cork, which will include the most comprehensive architectural history to date of all of Bantry’s important buildings.4 The early nineteenth century – especially the years before and after Catholic Emancipation (1829) – was a rich period in the building of Catholic churches in Ireland.

  • Chapter 2 Core and Settlement Strategy
    Draft Mayo County Development Plan 2021-2027 CHAPTER 2 CORE AND SETTLEMENT STRATEGY 2.1 Introduction The Core Strategy and Settlement Strategy for the County Development Plan has been prepared through extensive collaboration between the Forward Planning team, Elected Members and all relevant sections of the Council. It has also been informed by the National Planning Framework (NPF), the Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy (RSES) for the Northern and Western Region, the UN Sustainable Goals and the Strategic Economic Drivers influencing the sustainable future growth of County Mayo over the lifetime of the plan and beyond. The challenge is to build on the unique dispersed settlement characteristics of Mayo, in order to provide a balance, link and synergy between the rural countryside and urban settlements of the County. This will be realised through the following vision for County Mayo and the strategic aims set out below. 2.2 Vision of County Mayo ‘To create a sustainable and competitive county that supports the health and well-being of the people of Mayo, providing an attractive destination, as a place in which to live, work, invest, do business and visit, offering high quality employment and educational opportunities within strong and vibrant sustainable communities, whilst ensuring a transition to a low carbon and climate resilient county that supports high environmental quality.’ 2.3 Strategic Aims The strategic aims which relate to the advancement of this vision, are set out hereunder for each chapter of Volume 1 of the County Development Plan. The Plan aims to build on previous successes and to strengthen Mayo’s strategic advantage as a county, to ensure that we meet the needs of our citizens, communities, built and natural environments, infrastructure and economic/employment development to their full potential, while combatting and adapting to climate change.
