Strategic Context Sample Clauses

Strategic Context. The Council, along with its partners, have produced a new plan to support the economic recovery and growth of Carmarthenshire. This action arises from that plan and the previous Report and Recommendations of the Carmarthenshire Rural Affairs Task Group – June 2019 (aka Moving Rural Carmarthenshire Forward Strategy) and this work involves developing an Economic Growth Plan for each of the ten identified towns. A link to the Economic Recovery Plan and Moving Rural Carmarthenshire Forward Strategy is below: - The ten rural towns identified in the Strategy are Llandovery, St Clears, Whitland, Newcastle Emlyn, Laugharne, Cwmamman (Amman Valley), Llanybydder, Kidwelly, Llandeilo and Cross Hands. The relevant recommendation of the moving Rural Carmarthenshire Forward for this development strategy is “to develop business incubator or commercial accommodation in rural areas”. The Welsh Government (WG) has published its Economic Action Plan: Property Delivery Plan (PDP), which acts upon:-  strong grounds for public sector intervention in delivery of property infrastructure.  differing focus of interventions, depending on location.  WG and public sector partners should plan to support the delivery of at least 900,000 square feet of new floorspace over a three-year rolling period. The plan is underpinned by the following reports prepared for WG by SQW: -  Commercial Property: Market Analysis and Potential Interventions A report to the Welsh Government - March 2020  Commercial property: Market analysis and potential interventions Supplementary note in the light of the Covid-19 crisis - June 2020 These documents are available via the following link: The delivery of industrial premises for letting at any of these ten rural towns would contribute to the delivery of both the PDP and the Moving Rural Carmarthenshire Forward Strategy. The identification of suitable sites and the type of development will also be informed by the PDP and the Ten Towns Economic Growth Plans.

Strategic Context. 5. In February 2013, the Parliament approved the ―Adjustments to the Ulaanbaatar City Urban Development Master Plan 2020 and Development Directions 2030‖. The new master plan produced two important outcomes: (i) for the first time, ger area development is integrated into the city master plan, and (ii) the value and function of ger area subcenters is acknowledged as a key element of the city’s future growth. The MUB is currently developing the Ger Area Development Program, and in March 2013, established a steering committee led by the chairman of Ulaanbaatar city council. The MUB also established the Ger Area Development Agency (GADA), responsible for redevelopment of the ger areas, under the supervision of the vice mayor who is also in charge of urban development and investment. On 30 May 2013, the city council resolution N.10/38 endorsed the program, subcenter locations under project 1, and coordination of the investment program with the city master plan. The MUB also proposed to establish a special purpose development vehicle, tentatively named subcenter redevelopment authority, to facilitate, supervise, and coordinate the redevelopment process of the subcenters. 6. At the national level, the National Development Strategy and the New Reconstruction Midterm Program (2008–2016) constituted the framework to implement the program. The Ministry of Economic Development initiated the Street Project to improve roads conditions in Ulaanbaatar, including a ger area component under preparation. The program objectives are consistent with the strategic goals of the ADB’s Urban Operational Plan,8 the country partnership strategy,9 which is in line with ADB’s Strategy 2020.10

Strategic Context. This document is not intended to replay or replace existing strategies or action plans. The City Region has a clear vision of what it aims to achieve, underpinned by a well established evidence base, and a commitment from partners to align resources against clearly identified priorities (see chapter 2). The „Story of the Liverpool City Region‟ is, therefore, intended to summarise existing progress and lay the foundation for additional or innovative actions to further accelerate growth or to address barriers to growth. These additional actions – including key „asks‟ of Government – are provided in supplementary, detailed platform papers.

Strategic Context. The Dundee Partnership is fully committed to supporting people to live fulfilled and independent lives, safely in their communities and reducing the need for people to be cared for in congregate settings. Our commitment is to provide information, advice, services and support people to achieve improved personal outcomes. Strategic and intermediate outcomes have been developed to assist us to meet statutory obligations, prioritise resources and ultimately, to improve how we deliver services to optimise personal outcomes for people. In delivering this commitment we recognise that we face particular challenges. For example, we know that around 40,000 of our citizens live in the 15% most deprived areas in Scotland and, as the Christie Commission reported, 32% of adults in these areas are likely to have a long-standing illness (compared to only 14% in more affluent areas). Also, the proportion of our population over 85 years is expected to almost double within the next 20 years. We know that an ageing population and the effects of deprivation combine to increase demands on health and social care services. People are living longer with increased ill-health and frailty and people in areas of multiple deprivation are likely to experience the long term conditions associated with ageing at an earlier stage. As the number of older people increases the number of people living with dementia will also increase. There has been a recent drive to ensure that dementia is diagnosed and work in underway to reduce variation across the city. As more people are diagnosed, preventative services can be offered which help people to live independent and healthier lives for longer. The range of specialist services in the community which meet the needs of older people with advanced dementia is improving and carers are being supported to prevent crisis situations which result in emergency respite in care homes. Our service users and their families and carers expect higher quality and more choice than previously. We know that people increasingly expect the same variety, choice and flexibility that they receive from the business sector. Our immediate outcomes and indicators of performance are organised under four themes – Reshaping Care for Older People (Change Fund for Older People), Personalisation, Carers and Protection. These themes follow the national policy framework and contextualise it to our local circumstances.

Strategic Context. The constraints to private sector development in the Republic of Malawi (“Recipient”) are well- known due in part to the large amount of analytical and diagnostic work that has been carried out in recent years. These constraints include the following: poor regulatory environment; weak contract enforcement and limited access to justice; low capacity in property rights institutions; weak policy analysis, formulation and implementation; and limited access to finance. The Investment Climate Assessment of 2006 based on a detailed survey of 300 enterprises, and the annual publication of Doing Business survey indicators, has helped to focus the reform efforts of the Recipient. In response, the Recipient’s Private Sector Development (PSD) program seeks to address most of these constraints through a combination of different projects and programs. BESTAP is only one such project and represents a “bite size” chunk of Malawi’s broader and longer-term PSD program.

Strategic Context. Dundee lies at the heart of a City Region providing employment opportunities and services to a 30 minute drive time population which exceeds 300,000. In 2011, there were 72,100 employee jobs in the city's boundaries and a further 2,000 engaged in self-employment. The largest sectors were Health (23.8%), Retail (12.6%) and Education (11.9%). Economic regeneration over the last decade has been underpinned by the growth of knowledge based industries which employ 49.4% of the city's population compared to a Scottish average of 41.6%. The city's universities have established an international reputation for research and innovation and this has helped to drive the growth of key sectors such as life sciences and computer games development. The global economic downturn has impacted on Dundee as elsewhere. Employment levels have fallen and levels of worklessness have risen and with 33.6% of employee jobs in the public sector in 2011, compared to a Scottish average of 26.4%, future constraints on funding could have a significant impact. The prevailing economic climate, however, cannot dampen the sense that Dundee is undergoing a radical transformation which will leave the city well placed to benefit from an upturn in wider economic conditions. The £1 billion waterfront development, the flagship V&A at Dundee project and the opportunity to attract marine renewables investment provide confidence that the foundations for future economic growth will be firmly established over the next 5 years. In preparing this new single outcome agreement, the Dundee Partnership has undertaken a review of recent economic performance. Between 2008 and 2011, overall job numbers in the city fell by 4.8%. Although this was an unwelcome trend, the scale of decline was less pronounced than for Scotland (5.3%) as a whole. Despite the overall drop in job numbers, the number of knowledge intensive jobs remained stable at 35,600. The overall share of people seeking employment (ILO definition) rose however from 5.9% in 2008 to 8.9% in 2011, with the 16-24 year old age group particularly affected. Against a challenging environment, economic recovery and growth and the achievement of The overall outcome is that Dundee will be an internationally recognised city at the heart of a vibrant region with more and better employment opportunities for our people. Future economic growth will be achieved through a range of strategic approaches. Priority will be given to: • Creating the physical infrastructure r...
