  • Annex I the Problems with Refugee Statistics
    The State of the World's Refugees 1993 Annex I Refugee Statistics The Problems With Refugee Statistics The collection of accurate statistical data on refugees and asylum-seekers is one of the most problematic issues confronting UNHCR. Precise refugee statistics are required constantly within the agency for planning, budgeting and fund-raising purposes. Governments and other organizations – the press and media, NGOs and research bodies – also make constant demands on UNHCR for facts and figures, especially when major refugee movements or repatriation operations are taking place. All too often, however, UNHCR finds it difficult to answer such queries with any real degree of accuracy. Moreover, the figures collected by UNHCR frequently diverge from those reported by journalists, voluntary agencies, host governments and donor states. These problems derive from a number of different factors. The word ‘refugee’ is itself subject to quite different interpretations. Under international law, the concept has a very specific meaning, and is used to describe people who have left their own country because they have a well-founded fear of persecution, or because their safety is threatened by events seriously disturbing public order. The figures used by UNHCR for public information and fund-raising purposes have traditionally been based on this definition. Other organizations use a different approach. Some base their refugee statistics on a more restrictive definition. The US Committee for Refugees (USCR), for example, which publishes an influential annual refugee survey, lists only those refugees “in need of protection and/or assistance”. The distinguishing characteristic of such refugees, the survey explains, is “their inability to repatriate due to continued fear of persecution in their homelands and the absence of permanent settlement opportunities in their countries of asylum or elsewhere”.

  • Hart Local Plan (Strategy and Sites) 2032
    HART LOCAL PLAN (STRATEGY AND SITES) 2032 Adopted April 2020 Accessible Version HART Local Plan (Strategy and Sites) 2032 Adopted APRIL 2020 Foreword Welcome to our Hart Local Plan (Strategy and Sites) 2032, which has been prepared over several years, reflecting the many and varied views that have been expressed throughout its journey. We are really pleased to have adopted this Plan, to guide new development to the right places, of the right scale with high quality design and with the right supporting infrastructure, while protecting the important parts of our natural and historic environment. Hart is consistently ranked as one of the best places to live in the country, we want to keep it that way. Our overall vision is for Hart to become the best place to live, work and enjoy and this Plan supports the need to balance future development needs with protecting the District’s special qualities. Over the 18 year Plan period to 2032, over 7,000 new homes will be provided, many of which already have planning permission and some have been built. The creation of a new community at Hartland Village is well underway on a previously developed site and this will provide new homes, a new primary school, a neighbourhood centre and extensive open space, whilst ensuring that locally protected sites are not harmed. It is important that this Plan supports the economy, our businesses, and our town and village centres. We are fortunate in Hart to have a wide choice of job options through various small and medium sized businesses, based in one of our many economic sites, through to retail opportunities in our active and vibrant town and village centres.

  • Yateley, Darby Green & Frogmore
    Yateley, Darby Green & Frogmore Neighbourhood Plan 2020 – 2032 VERSION 1.4.2 MAY 2021 PRE SUBMISSION PLPreAN -submission version May 2021 FOREWORD This draft version of the Yateley, Darby Green and Frogmore Neighbourhood Plan represents the culmination of nearly four years work by a group of dedicated volunteers within our three small towns to pull together a plan that represents the broader community’s aspirations for our neighbourhood. Our parish is fortunate in many respects. We live in the least deprived district in the country; we often come out either top or near the top in surveys of the best places to live; there is a vibrant and active community encompassing sports and leisure clubs, churches and events such as the Gig on the Green and the May Fayre; we are surrounded by beautiful countryside with plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling and other leisure activities. At the same time, the town has been quite extensively developed over the past few decades, with the result that there are few places left for further building. In the Local Plan adopted by Hart District Council in April 2020, there are no sites allocated for development in Yateley, and in recognition of that fact, this Neighbourhood Plan does not identify any specific sites. Instead we have concentrated on the key principles and policies that we would want to see adopted when considering any future potential development of our community. We set out early on to establish our strategic objectives for our community, which are summed up in four key themes: to be Happy, Attractive, Sustainable and Inclusive.
