  • West Dunbartonshire Council
    WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL Report by the Chief Executive Community Participation Committee: 19 November 2008 ___________________________________________________________________ Subject: Scottish Parliament Constituency Boundaries 1. Purpose 1.1 The Committee, at its meeting on 17 September 2008, requested a background report on the current proposals to amend the constituency boundaries for the Scottish Parliament. 2. Background 2.1 Legislation provides for regular reviews of constituency boundaries and the new boundaries will be in effect for the next Scottish Parliament elections to be held in May 2011. Reviews are carried out by the Boundaries Commission for Scotland. 2.2 The Commission published its provisional proposals for the review on 14 February 2008. These proposals advertised in the local press and notices with explanatory information were lodged for consultation in council offices and main libraries. The proposals were submitted to Council at its meeting of 27 February. They comprise:- 1) linking two of West Dunbartonshire’s wards, Clydebank Central and Clydebank Waterfront, with part of the Renfrewshire Council area to create the North Renfrewshire and Clydebank Burgh Constituency; and 2) joining the Kilpatrick Ward with Dumbarton, Lomond and Leven wards and two wards of Argyll and Bute Council to form the Dumbarton and Helensburgh County Constituency. 2.3 The Council duly objected to the proposals for both constituencies on the grounds that Kilpatrick Ward should not be split from the other two Clydebank wards and that the linking of Clydebank Central and Clydebank Waterfront wards with areas in Renfrewshire Council was anomalous and unacceptable. 2.4 Where a local authority submits an objection to a proposed boundary, a Local Inquiry must be held.

  • Clyde Waterfront
    Clyde Waterfront Clyde Waterfront is the biggest regeneration project ever undertaken in Scotland. It brings together public and private sectors to rejuvenate 20km of the city alongside the River Clyde, from central Glasgow westwards past the towns of Clydebank, Renfrew and Erskine to Dumbarton. The initiative started in 2003 following the publication of an OECD report, ‘Urban Renaissance: Glasgow’, which recognised that the river Clyde area and its environs represent the city’s main under-utilised assets: people, land and buildings.1 Around 250 individual projects fall under the umbrella of Clyde Waterfront. Currently approximately one third of these are completed, one third is at the planning stage, and the other third are underway. The overarching Clyde Waterfront Regeneration Initiative (CWRI) seeks to develop a vibrant and thriving area around the River Clyde, with people and communities at its heart. The regeneration is based on the four themes of economy, place, people and connectivity. Two interlinked projects have been selected to illustrate best practice from Clyde Waterfront: NHS South Glasgow Hospital campus (NSGH): this will comprise a 1,109-bed adult hospital and 256-bed children's hospital with maternity services, able to treat 725,000 patients a year. Due for completion in 2015, it will be the biggest hospital in the UK. Fastlink: this is a transport project, promoting rapid transit ’tram on tyres’ energy efficient buses. The new routes will improve the connection of the city centre with areas that are difficult to access by public transport. The core route will connect the city centre to the SECC and Govan (NHS South Glasgow Hospital campus).

  • Community Resources Booklet
    Supporting our Recovery and Enjoying Ourselves Community Resources in West Dunbartonshire About this booklet The FAST group brings together people in West Dunbartonshire who have used addictions services. We give feedback on how services are working and help identify gaps in what people find helpful and what is currently available. One of the gaps we saw was something to help people get access to all the ordinary resources in the community. Sometimes people who have an alcohol or drugs problem don’t use these facilities because they don’t know they are there. Sometimes it’s because we don’t have the confidence, or feel that somehow they are not for us. We have found that ordinary community resources have helped us on our recovery and we want other people to benefit too. Most of them don’t cost much money and lots are free - so it makes it easier to keep up using them as part of managing to stay well. So we decided to write this booklet to encourage you and give you a wee nudge. For people who live in West Dunbartonshire We have described the services that there are for people who live in West Dunbartonshire. Sometimes they are based in Clydebank and sometimes they are in Dumbarton or Alexandira. So you might have to get the bus and go outside your own area for some things. But many facilities are in each local area. Community Resources in West Dunbartonshire 2 You may be asked for your address or proof that you are a local resident - which is what everyone gets asked.
