  • Strategic Transport Projects Review Report 1 – Review of Current and Future Network Performance
    Transport Scotland Strategic Transport Projects Review Report 1 – Review of Current and Future Network Performance 7.2 Corridor 2: Inverness to Ullapool and Western Isles 7.2.1 Setting the Context Corridor 2 extends north and west from Inverness to northwest Scotland and includes onward connections to the Western Isles (Eilean Siar), as shown in Figure 7.2.1. It connects the city of Inverness with Ullapool, which are approximately 92 kilometres apart. Ullapool has an onward ferry connection to Stornoway. The population of the corridor (excluding Eilean Siar) is approximately 16,000 and little change is forecast over the period to 2022333. In contrast, the population of Eilean Siar is forecast to decline over this period by almost 15 per cent334. However the largest change in population overall, shown in Figure 7.2.2, is in and around Inverness. It is expected that there will be employment growth of approximately four per cent in the Highland council area as a whole, but a decline of similar magnitude in Eilean Siar335. Areas of greatest change are shown in Figure 7.2.2. The national level of car ownership, measured as a percentage of households with access to a car, is 67 per cent. Within the corridor, car ownership levels are above average, as expected, due to the rural nature of the corridor: • Highland council area: 75 per cent; and • Eilean Siar: 70 per cent336. The economic inactivity rate within the Highlands and Eilean Siar was around 16 per cent in 2005. This is slightly below the Scottish average of 21 per cent337.

  • Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Quarterly
    Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Performance Report - Highland Quarterly Performance Report 1 July - 30 September 2013 Introduction Welcome to the second report of the quarterly Performance Reports for 2013/14. This report provides summaries of our fire safety activities, statistical and benchmarking information for the Highland area, and extracts of incidents that occurred between 1 July and 30 September 2013. 1. Community Safety Activity Community Engagement - Activities We promote fire safety and engage with the community through a number of different initiatives, which include working with partner agencies in promoting road safety, addressing anti-social behaviour, and providing fire and road safety advice to the community in general. We undertook a variety of community engagement activities during this quarter, which included: Safe Highlander - Wick We supported the delivery of Safe Highlander in Wick during this quarter with approximately 400 primary school children from schools throughout the area attending. This is a multi agency event attended by representatives from Red Cross, Police Scotland, SSPCA, Drug & Alcohol, Internet Safety as well as the Fire and Rescue Service. It is an educational activity based on a partnership approach, aiming to tackle challenging issues of community safety and crime prevention. Children following the event become more aware of personal safety, potentially avoid becoming victims of crime, understand how to react to emergency situations and encourage good citizenship. Scottish Fire and Rescue Service staff advise and educate pupils to recognise fire hazards in the home and understand what to do in the event of a smoke alarm going off at home and the importance of working smoke alarms and fire action plans.

Office for Nuclear Regulation Report ONR-COP-PAR-16-025 TRIM Ref: 2016/479238 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Determination of the Off-site Emergency Planning and Prior Information Areas for the Loch Ewe Operational Berth: Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations 2001 The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) is responsible for regulating the GB nuclear industry in order to protect the health and safety of employees and the public against risks of harm arising from ionising radiations. ONR is the regulatory authority for Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations 2001 (REPPIR) on nuclear licensed sites, Ministry of Defence (MOD) Authorised nuclear sites and nuclear warship sites. ONR’s responsibilities include a legal duty, where it is concluded that there is a potential for a reasonably foreseeable radiation emergency (as defined in REPPIR), to determine an off-site emergency planning area (i.e. the area within which, in ONR’s opinion, any member of the public is likely to be affected by such an emergency). In these cases, there is also a legal duty, under the same Regulations, for ONR to determine an area within which prior information is to be distributed to the public.
