  • May 2021 FOI 2387-21 Drink Spiking
    Our ref: 2387/21 Figures for incidents of drink spiking in your region over the last 5 years (year by year) I would appreciate it if the figures can be broken down to the nearest city/town. Can you also tell me the number of prosecutions there have been for the above offences and how many of those resulted in a conviction? Please see the attached document. West Yorkshire Police receive reports of crimes that have occurred following a victim having their drink spiked, crimes such as rape, sexual assault, violence with or without injury and theft. West Yorkshire Police take all offences seriously and will ensure that all reports are investigated. Specifically for victims of rape and serious sexual offences, depending on when the offence occurred, they would be offered an examination at our Sexual Assault Referral Centre, where forensic samples, including a blood sample for toxicology can be taken, with the victim’s consent, if within the timeframes and guidance from the Faculty for Forensic and Legal Medicine. West Yorkshire Police work with support agencies to ensure that all victims of crime are offered support through the criminal justice process, including specialist support such as from Independent Sexual Violence Advisors. Recorded crime relating to spiked drinks, 01/01/2016 to 31/12/2020 Notes Data represents the number of crimes recorded during the period which: - were not subsequently cancelled - contain the search term %DR_NK%SPIK% or %SPIK%DR_NK% within the crime notes, crime summary and/or MO - specifically related to a drug/poison/other noxious substance having been placed in a drink No restrictions were placed on the type of drink, the type of drug/poison or the motivation behind the act (i.e.

  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor

I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • Wakefield Metropolitan District Council Home to School Transport
    WAKEFIELD METROPOLITAN DISTRICT COUNCIL HOME TO SCHOOL TRANSPORT POST 16 TRANSPORT POLICY 2018/2019 eport on: Transport policy statement for learners aged 16-18 in further education and training and continuing learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities aged 19 and over ACADEMIC YEAR: 2018/2019 1 1. SUMMARY OF POLICY STATEMENT AND MAIN OBJECTIVES 1.1 There is no automatic entitlement to free home to school or college transport once a student is over 16 years. Responsibility for making appropriate transport arrangements rests with a student and/or parents/carers. 1.2 Providing assisted transport (e.g. taxis, specially adapted vehicles) will only be provided in exceptional circumstances. 1.3 Wakefield Council is committed to ensuring that every child and young person can fulfil their potential. The aim of this policy is that all children and young people with an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) should lead lives that are as independent and as free from restriction as possible and that each child and young person is supported to achieve independent travel wherever practicable. 1.4 This policy explains the entitlement to travel assistance for children and young people post 16. Wakefield Council’s policies on travel to and from school and other establishments for statutory aged pupils and statutory aged pupils with special educational needs are available separately. 1.5 The main objective of the Wakefield Transport Partnership is to provide accessibility to education or training as a means of promoting learning, training, social inclusion, choice and diversity of learning provision. The central principal is that no learner should be prevented from taking part in full-time education (not less than 12 guided learning hours per week) or training because of the lack of support travelling to an education or training or learning provision or where appropriate, an independent specialist institution.

  • Popular Political Oratory and Itinerant Lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the Age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa M
    Popular political oratory and itinerant lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa Martin This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of York Department of History January 2010 ABSTRACT Itinerant lecturers declaiming upon free trade, Chartism, temperance, or anti- slavery could be heard in market places and halls across the country during the years 1837- 60. The power of the spoken word was such that all major pressure groups employed lecturers and sent them on extensive tours. Print historians tend to overplay the importance of newspapers and tracts in disseminating political ideas and forming public opinion. This thesis demonstrates the importance of older, traditional forms of communication. Inert printed pages were no match for charismatic oratory. Combining personal magnetism, drama and immediacy, the itinerant lecturer was the most effective medium through which to reach those with limited access to books, newspapers or national political culture. Orators crucially united their dispersed audiences in national struggles for reform, fomenting discussion and coalescing political opinion, while railways, the telegraph and expanding press reportage allowed speakers and their arguments to circulate rapidly. Understanding of political oratory and public meetings has been skewed by over- emphasis upon the hustings and high-profile politicians. This has generated two misconceptions: that political meetings were generally rowdy and that a golden age of political oratory was secured only through Gladstone’s legendary stumping tours. However, this thesis argues that, far from being disorderly, public meetings were carefully regulated and controlled offering disenfranchised males a genuine democratic space for political discussion.

  • Road Safety and Evaluation
    Evaluating the Effectiveness of Vehicle Activated Signs in the Wakefield District 1. Introduction Vehicle Activated Signs (VAS) in this study are the signs that illuminate a road safety message, accompanied with flashing amber lights, when activated by a vehicle travelling above a pre-set speed. They can be used to warn drivers that they are travelling too fast, to warn of a hazard (such as a bend), approaching a traffic- calmed area, or a school frontage. VAS Sign – 30 – SLOW DOWN VAS Sign - bend warning – SLOW DOWN Wakefield‘s criteria for installing permanent VAS was determined in the late 1990’s when VAS were first installed in the District. As the main purpose of the signs was to warn drivers to slow down to reduce the likelihood of potential accidents, it was felt that sites should be initially selected where the measured 85th percentile traffic speed was around 10mph or more higher than the speed limit of the road, generally on A or B class roads. Within Wakefield District, VAS have been installed at approaching 100 permanent locations over the past 10 years. Appropriate illuminated messages have been used for different circumstances. For example, the early VAS installations had a simple “Slow Down” message or a “30” speed limit roundel, which has developed over the years by combining both with a “School Slow Down” message and displaying typical warning signs such as children crossing the road, sharp bends and cross-roads. 1 of 17 Locations of VAS within Wakefield District More recently a new type of VAS sign has been used at one location within in the District – the Driver Feedback Sign (DFS) supplied by 3M UK plc.
