    Register of Interests of Members’ Secretaries and Research Assistants

    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 11 July 2018) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register In accordance with Resolutions made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985 and 28 June 1993, holders of photo-identity passes as Members’ secretaries or research assistants are in essence required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £380 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass. Any gift (eg jewellery) or benefit (eg hospitality, services) that you receive, if the gift or benefit in any way relates to or arises from your work in Parliament and its value exceeds £380 in the course of a calendar year.’ In Section 1 of the Register entries are listed alphabetically according to the staff member’s surname. Section 2 contains exactly the same information but entries are instead listed according to the sponsoring Member’s name. Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented.

An Exploration of Culture and Change in the Scottish Fire Service: The Effect of Masculine Identifications Brian M. Allaway PhD by Research The University of Edinburgh 2010 1 Abstract This study examines the organisational culture of the Scottish Fire Service, and the political pressures for change emanating from the modernisation agenda of both the United Kingdom and Scottish Governments. Having completed a preliminary analysis of the Fire Service‟s culture, by examining the cultural history of the Scottish Fire Service and the process through which individuals are socialised into the Service, the study analyses the contemporary culture of the Service through research in three Scottish Fire Brigades. This research concludes that there is a clearly defined Fire Service culture, which is predicated on the operational task of fighting fire, based on strong teams and infused with masculinity at all levels.

    Influences on Trade Union Organising Effectiveness in Great Britain

    Abstract This paper brings together data from the 1998 Workplace Employee Relations Survey, National Survey of Unions and TUC focus on recognition survey to investigate influences on union organising effectiveness. Organising effectiveness is defined as the ability of trade unions to recruit and retain members. Results suggest that there are big differences in organising effectiveness between unions, and that national union recruitment policies are an important influence on a union’s ability to get new recognition agreements. However local factors are a more important influence on organising effectiveness in workplaces where unions have a membership presence. There are also important differences in organising effectiveness among blue and white-collar employees. These differences suggest that unions will face a strategic dilemma about the best way to appeal to the growing number of white-collar employees. JEL classification: J51 Key words: Trade union objectives and structures, organising effectiveness This paper was produced under the ‘Future of Trade Unions in Modern Britain’ Programme supported by the Leverhulme Trust.

    A WALK THROUGH ‘UPPER HOMERTON’ (0.7 miles) 1/10 Start outside Sutton House, 2-4 Homerton High Street, E9 6JQ. This western part of Homerton was called ‘Upper Homerton’. Sutton House was built in 1535 by Ralph Sadleir. It was incorrectly named after wealthy Thomas Sutton who never lived there; he lived in a house close by where he died in 1611. 2/10 Turn right then right again down Isabella Road to the Chesham Arms in Mehetabel Road. These streets were named for the daughters of landowner John Ball who let the first leases for development here in 1865. The pub opened the same year; it is said to be the only pub with this name. It closed in 2012 but reopened after Hackney Council decided it had to be a pub as an asset of community value. 3/10 Turn left and left again up Link Street. Originally this was a steep road with no steps up to the High Street. Turn right at the High Street to Ponsford Street. This was the main route west out of Homerton. The street was originally named Bridge Street as it led down to a bridge across Hackney Brook. The North London Line, originally constructed in 1850, follows the course of the Hackney Brook. 4/10 Cross over and go down Ponsford Street to steps on the left leading up to Shepherd’s Lane. Imagine sheep grazing on grassy slopes leading down to the brook. Pocket Homes is on the site of The Deuragon Arms, there from 1937 to 1983, one of the best music pubs in the East End of the 1950s, popular for drag shows and a gay-friendly pub when homosexuality was illegal.

The failure is not principally with the physical science evidence for climate change, which as a scientific hypothesis is increasingly robust, although still evolving and variously contested. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports articulate the widely‐ held but conservative consensus around the physical science of climate change: the climate system is now warming significantly and is likely to continue, human activities are the major cause of it and potentially large impacts are likely (IPCC 2013). The fifth IPCC report predicts significant increases in surface warming and sea level by the end of this century.

New Labour’s Women MPs PHILIP COWLEY AND SARAH CHILDS* The 1997 British general election saw a record 120 women returned to the House of Commons, 101 of them Labour. Yet if the most striking feature of the 1997 intake into the House of Commons was the number of newly elected women, then the most striking feature of the backbench rebellions in that parliament was the lack of these women amongst the ranks of the rebels. They were less than half as likely to rebel against the party whip as the rest of the Parliamentary Labour Party; even those who did, did so around half as often.
