England & Wales Island Bagging by Lisa Drewe is a stunning and informative guide to the islands of England, Wales, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. It is ideal for swimmers, kayakers, adventure travellers, wildlife spotters and ice cream connoisseurs. Go on an inspirational and fascinating coastline journey – familiar islands are visited, such as Lundy and the Isle of Wight; others are less well known, such as Gewni in Pembrokeshire and Coquet Island in Northumberland . Almost 300 islands are included, from larger, populated islands to remote, uninhabited islets – some can be reached by foot at low tide, others have ferry services, and some you will need your own transport, or be content to view them from the mainland. Once you've found your island this book introduces you to the best sites on the island to appreciate: hidden beaches and coves, the tastiest local food and the wildlife that can be seen in the locality. Watch the Cemlyn Bay terns on Anglesey, go paddleboarding around Mersea Island in Essex, walk in the footsteps of pilgrims on Lindisfarne in Northumberland, or enjoy ice cream from one of the smallest dairy herds in the country on St Agnes in the Isles of Scilly ... it's all there to be enjoyed in England & Wales Island Bagging.
Key recommendations this year are: a six point incremental scale for operational support grades incorporating a 2.2% increase at maximum & minimum, with a common incremental date of 1 April; OSGs other than probationers will receive their 2008 increment before assimilating to the new scale; a 2.2% conolidated increase to maximum and minimum of officer pay scale, to maximum of scales for night patrol, storeman, assistant storeman and auxiliary grades; a 2.7% consolidated increase to senior officer (SO) salary to the minimum of the PO scale; a 2.7% consolidated increase to maximum of pay range A and a 2.2% increase to maximum of pay ranges B to G and the decoupling of the pay ranges from the pay spine; no change to specialist allowances or to care & maintenance of dogs allowance; a 2.2% increase to the required hours addition (RHA), contracted supplementary hours (CSH), bedwatch, constant watch and Operation Tornado payments and other allowances; no change to locality pay
The report's key recommendation is for an increase in basic pay for all grades of £425 or 1.6 per cent, whichever is the greater. This, combined with some other changes for operational managers, two additional rates of locality pay, and a 1.6 per cent increase in all allowances except specialist, will lead to an increase in the pay bill of £27 million or 2.5 per cent. The Review Body has long considered the current pay system as outmoded and in urgent need of reform, and has identified particular aspects that require attention: the length of pay ranges; performance or competence based pay progression; rationalization of the middle management grading structure; and pay arrangements for governing governors (in charge of establishments) and senior operational managers. So it welcomes some progress towards pay reform, linked to a multi-year deal between the Prison Service Agency and the Prison Officers' Association, but regrets that the negotiations had stalled at the end of 2005. It is vital that the negotiations resume, and that proposals for a new pay and grading structure, underpinned by a robust job evaluation system, are available in time for the 2007 report.
The Review Body makes recommendations for the pay arrangements of prison governors, other operational managers, prison officers and support grades in England and Wales. This is their 4th report which contains recommendations applicable from 1 April 2005, including that existing rates of locality payment remain in force, to be kept under review; an increase in basic pay of 2.5 per cent for staff generally, with the exception of senior officers who should receive an increase of 3.0 per cent in improve their relative position within the pay structure.
This is the eleventh report on England and Wales of the Prison Service Pay Review Body. Although this is the second year of a pay freeze for the public sector workers paid more than £21,000 a year, the Body considered evidence from the parties, undertook a visits programme and makes a few key recommendations on pay from 1 April 2012 including a consolidated increase of £250 to all points at or below £21,000
The Prison Service Pay Review Body's tenth report on England and Wales, sets out the following recommendations in respect of pay for 2011, and includes: a consolidated increase of £250 to all pay points at or below £21,000, including the first two points on the closed prison officer scale; that the Service and The Professional Trades Union for Prison, Correctional and Secure Psychiatric Workers (POA) engage promptly in constructive dialogue witn a view to agreeing a structure for the prison officer 2 and prison officer 1 scales and for a new operational support grade, before submitting proposals to the Review Body themselves. The publication is divided into four chapters eight appendices.
The Conquest, Assimilation, and Re-birth of a NationFROM THE VERY BEGINNINGS OF WALES, ITS PEOPLE HAVE DEFINED THEMSELVES AGAINST THEIR LARGE NEIGHBOUR. That relationship has defined both what it has meant to be Welsh and Wales as a nation. Yet the relationship has not always been a happy one and never one between equals. Wales was England's first colony and its conquest was by military force. It was later formally annexed, ending its separate legal status. Yet most of the Welsh reconciled themselves to their position and embraced the economic and individual opportunities being part of Britain and its Empire offered. Only in the later half of the twentieth century, in response to the decline of the Welsh language and traditional industry, did Welsh nationalism grow.This book tells the fascinating story of an uneasy and unequal relationship between two nations living side-by-side. It examines Wales' story from its creation to the present day, considering key moments such as medieval conquest, industrial exploitation, the Blue Books, and the flooding of Cwm Tryweryn.Wales: England's Colony? challenges us to reconsider Wales' historical relationship with England and its place in the world.
