  • BCS Paper 2017/74 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Draft
    Boundary Commission for Scotland BCS Paper 2017/74 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Draft Revised Proposals for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas Action required 1. The Commission is invited to consider responses to the initial and secondary consultation on its Initial Proposals and whether it wishes to make changes to its proposals for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas. Background 2. These constituency designs are based on a UK electoral quota of 74,769.2 electors and parliamentary electorate figures from the December 2015 Electoral Register. The electorate of constituencies has to be within 5% of the electoral quota, namely no fewer than 71,031 and no more than 78,507, unless the area of a constituency exceeds 12,000 square kilometres. No constituency may exceed 13,000 square kilometres. 3. The total electorate in the 3 council areas is 307,418, giving a theoretical entitlement to 4.11 constituencies. It is possible, therefore, to design 4 constituencies, exactly covering the combined council areas, the electorates of which are within the limits set by the legislation. 4. The Commission's Initial Proposals for this area comprise 4 constituencies which exactly cover the combined extent of these 3 council areas. A map of the constituencies is at Appendix A.

  • Population Change in Lochaber 2001 to 2011
    The Highland Council Agenda 5 Item Lochaber Area Committee Report LA/2/14 No 27 February 2014 Population Change in Lochaber 2001 To 2011 Report by Director of Planning and Development Summary This report presents early results from the 2011 Census, giving local information on the number and ages of people living within Lochaber. It compares these figures with those from 2001 to show that the population has “aged”, and that there is a large number of people who are close to retirement age. The population of Lochaber has grown by 6.1% (compared to the Highland average of 11.1%) with an increase in both Wards, and at a local level in 18 out of 27 data zones. Local population growth is strongly linked to the building of new homes. 1. Background 1.1. Publication of the results from the 2011 Census began in December 2012, and the most recent published in November and December 2013 gave the first detailed results for “census output areas”, the smallest areas for which results are published. These detailed results have enabled preparation of the first 2011 Census profiles and these are available for Wards, Associated School Groups, Community Councils and Settlement Zones on the Highland Council’s website at: http://www.highland.gov.uk/yourcouncil/highlandfactsandfigures/census2011.htm 1.2. This report returns to some earlier results and looks at how the age profile of the Lochaber population and the total numbers have changed at a local level (datazones). The changes for Highland are summarised in Briefing Note 57 which is attached at Appendix 1.

  • BCS Paper 2016/15 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Constituency Considerations for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Mora
    Boundary Commission for Scotland BCS Paper 2016/15 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Constituency considerations for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas Action required 1. The Commission is invited to consider alternative designs of constituencies for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas for its initial proposals, in furtherance of its 2018 Review of UK Parliament constituencies. Background 2. On 24 February 2016, the Commission began its 2018 Review of UK Parliament constituencies with a view to making its recommendations by October 2018 in tandem with the other UK parliamentary boundary commissions. 3. The review is being undertaken in compliance with the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, as amended. The Act stipulates a UK electoral quota of 74,769.2 electors and use of the parliamentary electorate figures from the December 2015 Electoral Register. The 5% electorate limits in the Act correspond to an electorate of no less than 71,031 and no more than 78,507. 4. The Act requires the Commission to recommend the name, extent and designation of constituencies in Scotland, of which there are to be 53 in total. 2 Scottish constituencies are prescribed in the Act: Orkney and Shetland Islands constituency and Western isles constituency. 5. The Act provides some discretion in the extent of the Commission’s regard to the size, shape and accessibility of constituencies, existing constituencies and the breaking of local ties. As this review is considered to be the first following enactment of the legislation (the 6th Review was ended before completion in 2013 following enactment of the Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013) the Commission need not have regard to the inconveniences attendant on changes to constituencies.

  • Employability and Deprived Area Fund
    The Highland Council Agenda Item 7 Lochaber Area Committee - 26 August 2013 Report No LA 3/13 Employability and Deprived Area Fund Report by Director of Planning & Development Summary: This report provides a summary of labour market and employment information and a description of Employability Services provision in the area. It also introduces a revised Deprived Area Fund available in the Area for 2014-15. Members are asked to comment on the Employability information and determine how they want to deliver the Deprived Area Fund from 2014-15. The work of the Employability team within the Planning and Development Service directly supports the Council’s Programme of support for the Highland economy and specifically helps with the creation of jobs and efforts to assist young people who have left school to access training, education or work. 1. Employability 1.1 Employability is described as the tasks and processes that help people obtain and sustain employment. It therefore covers a whole range of activity from care and rehabilitation; through personal development and learning activity to job seeking and retention. It is a generic term that covers people in a wide variety of circumstances – young people; people with long term conditions; people who are simply unemployed and job seeking. Appendix 1 attached shows what is called the Strategic Skills Pipeline – a simplified model intended to show the stages people go through in preparation for employment and increasingly used to describe the range of services that can support people to do so. Service provision involves a wide range of agencies and funding sources – private, public and third sector.

  • Rural Affairs and Environment Committee
    RURAL AFFAIRS AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE RURAL HOUSING INQUIRY SUBMISSION FROM HIGHLAND COUNCIL Rural housing inquiry – Highland Statistics March 2008 Information has been compiled as requested where data is available. It is not possible to extract the requested statistical information for rural areas only. Based on the Scottish Government definition that defines “rural” as involving all settlements of less than 3,000, wards have been colour coded to highlight those which are a) rural; b) made up of rural settlements and c) small towns. Other data is only available at present by the ex-management (and ex-District Council) areas which comprise both urban and rural areas. It should be recognised that homelessness may occur in rural areas but manifest itself as a homeless application in urban areas such as Inverness, Dingwall etc. It is not possible to estimate hidden homelessness.
