Overarching Principles. This policy covers the use that Uttlesford District Council will make of the ability to access and use information contained on the National Register of Taxi Licence Revocations and Refusals (NR3). The NR3 contains information relating to any refusal to grant, or revocation of, a taxi drivers’ licence8. This information is important in the context of a subsequent application to another authority for a drivers’ licence by a person who has had their licence refused or revoked in the past. Uttlesford District Council has signed up to the NR3. This means that when an application for a taxi drivers’ licence is refused, or when an existing taxi drivers’ licence is revoked, that information will be placed upon the register. 8 Throughout this policy reference is made to ‘taxi drivers licence.’ This generic term covers a Xxxxxxx carriage drivers licence, a private hire drivers licence and a combined/dual licence. When an application for a new drivers’ licence, or renewal of an existing drivers’ licence is received, Uttlesford District Council will make a search of NR3. The search will only be made by an officer who has been trained in the use of NR3 and who is acting in accordance with this policy. If details are found that appear to relate to the applicant, a request will be made to the authority that entered that information for further details. Any information that is received from any other authority in relation to an application will only be used in relation to that application, and the determination of it, and will not be used for any other purpose. Any data that is received will only be kept for as long as is necessary in relation to the determination of that application. This will include the period of processing that application, making a decision, notifying the applicant of the outcome of that decision, and the appeal processes. For the avoidance of doubt, any such data will be kept for a period of no more than 35 days from the date of the service of the written notification of the determination of the application9. Where an appeal to the magistrates’ court is made, the data will be retained until that appeal is determined or abandoned. Where the appeal is determined by the magistrates’ court, there is a further right of appeal to the Crown Court. In these circumstances, the data will be retained for a period of no more than 35 days from the date of the decision of the magistrates’ court. If an appeal is made to the Crown Court, the data will be retained ...
Overarching Principles. 2.1 The ‘agreed percentage’ methodology of service contributions is core to the entire agreement. By its nature any unilateral reduction in core funding would significantly alter the ‘agreed percentages’. This is significant on two levels. Firstly it skews the reality of proportionate local service delivery. Secondly it alters the partners liabilities in that ‘agreed percentages’ are used to not only calculate contributions for delivery but for example contributions relating to redundancies or even the liability should the agreement come to an end. For this reason it is proposed that in any local service disinvestment these must be preserved.
Overarching Principles. The parties to this agreement are committed to improving outcomes through integration and by devolving decisions about health and care in London to the most appropriate level. Once London’s devolution pilots have developed detailed plans for going further and faster in achieving greater collaboration and integration, any devolution of health powers would be subject to careful consideration by Government and national bodies, taking into account the needs of people in London and elsewhere. Proposals would need to strengthen the NHS in the London area, continue to uphold its values, standards and constitution, and reflect the principles and criteria signed off by the NHS England Board. Under any proposals agreed, healthcare services in London would remain part of the NHS. Government and national bodies are committed to a co-production approach with London partners to facilitate ultimate decisions on devolution – both by national bodies to devolve and by London to ‘receive’ devolved functions, with the expectation that these co-produced solutions will be built upon to, in time, transform the entire London health and care economy. This agreement between the national bodies and London Partners is predicated on development, agreement and subsequent delivery of a multi-year Strategic Plan for Health and Care resulting in a clinically and financially sustainable landscape of commissioning and provision, living within annual budgets and delivering fiscal balance over the Spending Review period to 2020/21. Two foundational principles will be central to London’s (and national bodies’) approach:
Overarching Principles. Children in state care 4 or known to child protection services or in need of clinical intervention will be appropriately prioritised. Due regard will be had to their clinical need and additional vulnerability status by virtue of their circumstances of being in care or having a disability, mental health issue or having a life limiting medical condition. The HSE’s response to the recommendations of the Child Death Review Group 2012, stated that the, "......State has a positive duty to then discriminate positively towards children received into its care through the provisions of that Act (Child Care Act, 1991), or indeed those actively known to the Child Protection Services". It added that where children in care or children known to the Child Protection Services are in need of disability services or Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), they will be appropriately prioritised having regard to clinical need, and additional vulnerability status. The Ombudsman's Report August 2011 recommended that children with special needs in xxxxxx care be prioritised over other children in care. Further clarification provided since confirmed this recommendation relates to children with moderate to profound special needs in xxxxxx care, many of whom present with disabilities or life limiting medical conditions. The following principles will also apply: No child or young person with a mental health and/or disability issue should be taken into state care as a consequence of insufficient disability /mental health services or support. While receiving a child formally into state care should be seen as a measure of last resort, if parents have effectively abandoned parental duties, the best interests of the child must be the guiding principle to ensure their interests and welfare are being appropriately protected.
Overarching Principles. Past discussions have highlighted a number of overarching principles that could usefully be codified in an MTA including: • Speed - in a public health emergency rapid action can be critical, making it important that as soon as possible samples and associated data are shared with a suitable reference laboratory and the results made available to those that need to know; • Sustainability - the samples and associated data generated by a public health emergency can be important for understanding more about the disease and in developing tools to combat it. These important resources will need to be maintained and managed over the longer term. It will be important to think of how this can be realistically accomplished at the same time as addressing immediate public health needs; • Capacity building - public health emergencies pose a collective threat. There remains much to be done to build the core capacities needed to address them effectively. This is an ongoing process requiring continual consideration. Successful capacity building may reduce the need to transport samples and associated data in the future; • Maximal preservation - avoiding destruction of potentially useful samples and associated data. These are im- portant biological resources. In some cases, they may be irreplaceable; • Trust - It is important that the MTA process establishes a level of trust among the participants where they feel their needs are recognised in the text. This is important also to prevent populations from fearing or xxxxx- derstanding research and pushing back; and to prevent stigmatisation of communities. Issues around stigma, violence cannot be ignored. • Good faith - prompt responses necessitated by public health emergencies are often not conducive to detailed negotiations, or focus on considerations beyond immediate needs. Addressing longer term arrangements for the samples and associated data may need to happen after the original transfer has been completed. Both parties will need to continue to work towards the broader public good, including through the commensurate sharing of any benefits accrued from sharing samples and associated data; • Good practices - it is important that, despite the emergency setting, transfers of samples and associated data follow the highest possible standards, for example taking into account bioethics issues, procedures and practices for safe and secure storage, handling and shipping of materials, and principles for access to genetic resources Ex...
