Plenary, 08 Feb 2007
It would be unrealistic to expect the situation to improve; it would, at the very best, stay the same and, in fact, might even get worse, to the economic detriment of the people in Fife.We must take on board the economic impact and the impact on congestion and climate change of removing the tolls, and I believe that the medium-term solution is a comprehensi...

The current drafting deliberately allows flexibility as to who the health professional should be. Often, the GP will be the best person, but there may be circumstances in which a district nurse or another health professional, such as a mental health professional, may be more appropriate to accompany the visiting council officer.

Maintenance costs, both planned and reactive, account for £1 million, and the utilities of electricity, water and gas also account for £1 million.We consider it prudent to provide a contingency of £1.7 million—excluding the specific election contingency that I mentioned earlier—to cover emergencies and to meet unexpected or unquantified new cost pressures. That is in line with best practice, and our experience to date reinforces the importance of maintaining such a reserve.Finally, we have provided £1.6 million for capital expenditure in 2007-08, which is £1.4 million less than the 2006-07 budget.

Much has been said about the advantages of focusing attention on risk and need, but offenders will lose confidence in the system if they see that supervision is unreal or, at best, a turning-up process. For the community parts of the new sentences to work effectively, the co-operation and compliance of offenders will be fundamental.

I mention that especially because of the bòrd's aim and belief that the first national Gaelic plan ever should be implemented in 2007, which is the year of Highland culture. The bòrd will do its best to ensure that the draft plan goes to the Minister for Education and Young People before the end of the year.

Finance Committee, 10 Jan 2006
As the Government has been unable to spend £9.8 million that it planned to spend on improving the efficiency of government, the only logical conclusion that any rational individual could draw is that the Government's efficient government programme is in some difficulty. At best, it is experiencing slippage on a par with the slippage that seems to occur regu...
