Scrutiny Committee had met on 8 June, and had considered two reports which were before Cabinet: Oxford's Economic Strategy and the Draft City Centre Action Plan. It had also considered the report of the Child Poverty Review Group. The Waterways Update had been deferred to its next meeting on 5 July.
Cabinet welcomed Councillor Smowton as Chair of Scrutiny for the 2022/23 Council year. In Councillor Smowton's absence on 8 June the meeting had been chaired by Councillor Diggins, who presented the scrutiny findings to Cabinet.
Oxford's Economic Strategy
Scrutiny Committee had considered the report and also noted comments made by a public speaker. Nine recommendations had been made, which included: effectively engaging with diverse communities as part of consultation processes; engaging with wider stakeholders such as trade unions and the third sector; developing a clearer way of demonstrating how competing priorities had been assessed; and making explicit reference to Brexit within the Strategy. The Leader responded that the recommendations were largely accepted. Where recommendations were considered to have already been addressed within the document this had been referenced in the Cabinet Member's response.
Draft City Centre Action Plan
Four recommendations had been made, which had largely focused on effective engagement with diverse communities, and ensuring that the Plan was adaptive to diverse needs.
The Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice responded that the recommendations were generally accepted. Whilst there had been a good level of engagement with the Action Plan, consultation was an area where there was always scope for improvement.
Report of the Child Poverty Review Group
In the absence of Councillor Djafari-Marbini who had chaired the group, Councillor Diggins presented the report of the Child Poverty Review Group. This represented a cross-cutting piece of work to address child poverty in the City, and had looked at what more the Council could do to embed poverty prevention methods into its activities and how it might work with partners on a collaborative response. 42 recommendations had been made, which had included a recommendation that the Council should adopt the socio-economic duty and lobby other local organisations to do the same. The report recognised the work which was already being done by the Council, but noted that there was scope for further action. Councillor Aziz highlighted the work of the Council in implementing the Oxford Living Wage as an example of an existing initiative in the area of poverty reduction.
The Chair responded that the review had been a thorough and detailed piece of work which required further consideration in order that a sufficiently full response could be given. It would therefore be brought back to a future Cabinet meeting. The Chair thanked Scrutiny members for the report, which was a very helpful and valuable piece of work, and noted that the group's recommendations would enable the Council to enhance and add benefit to its work.
Oxford's Economic Strategy - Consultation Report and Recommendations PDF 171 KB
The Executive Director (Development) has submitted a report inviting Cabinet to note the recommended revisions to Oxford's Economic Strategy following the recent consultation and to recommend adoption of the document.
Cabinet is recommended to:
1. Note the recommended changes to the Consultation version of Oxford's Economic Strategy as set out in Appendix 3 to this report; and
2. Adopt and publish the revised version of Oxford's Economic Strategy at Appendix 1.
Appendix 1 - Oxford's Economic Strategy Part 1 and 2 , item 7. PDF 5 MB
Appendix 2 - Consultation Report , item 7. PDF 727 KB
Appendix 3 - Revisions Log and Officer Responses , item 7. PDF 411 KB
Appendix 4 - Risk Register , item 7. PDF 101 KB
Appendix 5 - Equalities Impact Assessment , item 7. PDF 230 KB
The Executive Director (Development) had submitted a report inviting Cabinet to note the recommended revisions to Oxford's Economic Strategy following the recent consultation, and to recommend its adoption.
In introducing the report the Leader highlighted that the Strategy had been developed over a long period of time, had involved conversations with Members and stakeholders, and sought to embed the values of the Council. It did not set out new plans or proposals for transport, housing, or employment sites but rather it reflected on what was already planned across those areas and sought to ensure that work with partners on delivery was done in as inclusive a way as possible in order that everybody could benefit from the wealth and economic growth which existed in the City. It also reflected the well-known problems of economic and social division within the City, and lack of affordable housing, and was complementary to other strategies and workstreams both at City and County level. The points which had been raised by Scrutiny with regard to making improvements to consultations were accepted: improving engagement with local communities and local business was an existing aim, and would be further progressed as part of the work of the Strategy. The Council had already sought to improve representation of local business with the various bodies with which it worked in developing and delivering the Strategy, and to ensure that the representation was reflective of the City.
Matt Peachey, Economic Development Manager, clarified in relation to paragraph 10 of the report that points and challenges contained in the table within that paragraph were not all from 'Transform Oxford's Economic Strategy' (TOES), but had come from individuals or other organisations which had referred to TOES' literature or had raised related issues. It had not been intended to suggest that TOES was involved with generating misinformation.
Cabinet resolved to:
1. Note the recommended changes to the Consultation version of Oxford's Economic Strategy as set out at Appendix 3 to the report;
2. Adopt and publish the revised version of Oxford's Economic Strategy at Appendix 1, with authority to make any minor amendments required before publication delegated to the Head of Regeneration and Economy in consultation with the Leader.
Oxford City Centre Action Plan - Consultation Report and Recommendations PDF 126 KB
The Head of Regeneration and Economy has submitted a report setting out recommended revisions to the Consultation Report City Centre Action Plan and recommending adoption of the Plan.
1. Note the recommended changes to the consultation version of the City Centre Action Plan as set out within Appendix 3; and
2. Adopt and publish the revised Oxford City Centre Action Plan.

Appendix 3 - Proposed Amendments to the City Centre Action Plan , item 8. PDF 188 KB
Appendix 4 - Risk Assessment , item 8. PDF 456 KB
Appendix 6 - Project Delivery , item 8. PDF 79 KB
The Head of Regeneration and Economy had submitted a report setting out recommended revisions to the Consultation version of the City Centre Action Plan and recommending adoption of the Plan.
Councillor Imogen Thomas, Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice, highlighted that the Plan was a cohesive strategy which sought to draw together good work which was already being done as well as make newer plans for the future. In addition to giving ownership and momentum to existing work, it would also help to identify and fill gaps and enable better partnership working with stakeholders. The Plan was community and stakeholder owned, and, although led by the Council, could not be delivered in isolation. It was also a 'living document' which would be regularly reviewed.
In response to a question about how progress against the Plan would be monitored, Matt Peachey, Economic Development Manager, reported that it was intended to adopt a delivery board and internal officer group approach, with an annual review by officers and a quarterly update to the delivery board. The delivery board would explore setting key performance indicators, and it was also expected that there would be an annual conversation with residents about the City centre.
It was also hoped that the cohesive Plan would help in attracting public realm funding.
1. Note the recommended changes to the consultation version of the City Centre Action Plan as set out within Appendix 3 of the report; and
2. Adopt and publish the revised Oxford City Centre Action Plan, with authority to make any minor amendments required before publication delegated to the Head of Regeneration and Economy in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice.
Proposal for Public Realm Improvements on Council Owned Land in the City Centre PDF 133 KB

1. Approve the public realm improvement scheme on Council owned land in the City Centre, including approval of planned works and required property and legal procedures to deliver the scheme(see Confidential Appendix 1 for more details);
2. Recommend to Council to approve acapital budget of £297K for delivery of the public realm improvement scheme(see Confidential Appendix 1 for more details);

The Executive Director (Development) had submitted a report to seek approval for a public realm improvement scheme on Council owned land in the City Centre, including approval of planned works and required property and legal procedures to deliver the scheme.
Councillor Ed Turner, Deputy Leader (Statutory) – Finance and Asset Management informed Cabinet that the report proposed significant improvements to the character and appearance of the site referred to, which could be secured at a reasonable cost to the Council. Further detail was contained in the Part 2 appendix, which was exempt by reason of commercial confidentiality. It was currently an opportune time to pursue this, due to forthcoming lease expiries.
In response to a question about a discrepancy in the capital budget referred to at recommendation 2 and the cost of the scheme given in paragraph 7 of the report, Carri Unwin, Regeneration Manager, clarified that the cost of the scheme was £327k; however, £30k already existed in the project budget, so that the additional budget request was for £297k.
1. Approve the public realm improvement scheme on Council owned land in the City Centre, including approval of planned works and required property and legal procedures to deliver the scheme;
2. Recommend to Council to approve a capital budget of £297k for delivery of the public realm improvement scheme;

The Head of Planning Services had submitted a report seeking Cabinet approval for the Draft West End and Osney Mead Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) to go out to public consultation.
Councillor Alex Hollingsworth, Cabinet Member for Planning and Housing Delivery, highlighted that the area formed a prominent part of both the Oxford Economic Strategy and the City Centre Action Plan and was a large, important, and complex site. The site allocations for West End and Osney Mead were within the Local Plan; the SPD provided greater certainty for landowners and also the public on the implementation of existing adopted policies. If approved by Cabinet, a formal consultation process would be undertaken and once concluded, and if adopted, the SPD would form an additional element to the 2036 Local Plan.
1. Approve the Draft West End and Osney Mead Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) to go out to public consultation;

Oxford Local Plan Local Development Scheme 2022 - 2027 PDF 243 KB
The Head of Planning Services has submitted a report to present for approval the updated programme for the preparation of documents which will form the Council's Development Plan.
1. Approve the Oxford Local Development Scheme 2022 – 2027.
Appendix 1 - Local Development Scheme 2022 - 2027 , item 11. PDF 430 KB
Appendix 2 - Risk Assessment , item 11. PDF 61 KB
The Head of Planning Services had submitted a report to present for approval the updated programme for the preparation of documents which would form the Council's Development Plan.
Councillor Alex Hollingsworth, Cabinet Member for Planning and Housing Delivery, clarified that the Local Development Scheme (LDS) was a document which the Council was required to publish. It set out which local development documents were development plan documents, as well as timescales for the preparation and revision of documents forming part of Oxford City Council's development plan and other planning policy documents.
A key update to the LDS had been a change in the timetable for the Local Plan consultation which was required as a result of the Oxfordshire 2050 Plan having been rescheduled. The intention remained for the Local Plan to follow, and be shaped by, the 2050 Plan; however, this would not be possible in the event of any further delays due to the need for adopted Plans to not become more than 5 years old. The LDS also included the addition of the Draft West End and Osney Mead Supplementary Planning Document for consultation.
Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Grant and Project PDF 296 KB
The Head of Corporate Strategy has submitted a report to seek approval for the City Council's participation in a countywide bid to Government under the new Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) pilot fund, led by Oxfordshire County Council, which if successful will fund the installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Oxford.
1. Grant approval for Oxford City Council to collaborate in the project (called OXLEVI) and funding bid in June 2022, and, if successful, to deliver the scheme, subject to negotiationswith Government and partner organisations associated with the project;
2. Delegate authority to the Head of Corporate Strategy, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Health and Transport, the Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice, the Head of Financial Services/Section 151 Officer, and the Council's Monitoring Officer, to enter into funding, partnership, contracts and other necessary agreements for the purpose of delivering the scheme, including expenditure as necessary of remaining GULO grant funding held by the Council;
3. Authorise officers to deliver installation of EV Charging infrastructure in Oxford's car parks, having regard to other potential purposes to seek to optimise the use of space;
4. Grant approval for funding of up to £80k (£8k pa) to cover contract management for the installed infrastructure over the next 10 years, with the expectation that this figure will be increasingly offset by revenues generated; and
5. Note that the Oxford City EV Infrastructure Strategy is scheduled for the July Cabinet, while due to the June grant deadline the OXLEVI project item has been brought forward to the June Cabinet. The delivery of this project within Oxford will be aligned with the principles set out in the Strategy.
The Head of Corporate Strategy had submitted a report which sought approval for the Council's participation in a countywide bid to Government under the new Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) pilot fund, led by Oxfordshire County Council which, if successful, would fund the installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Oxford.
Councillor Imogen Thomas, Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice, highlighted that participation in the pilot would support the Council's aim of 25% of the City's cars being electric by 2025, and would allow the necessary infrastructure to be quickly provided. This included up to 500 cable gullies for homeowners without access to off street parking and 3 – 5 residential charging hubs, with a total of 18 charge points to be installed on City Council owned land / car parks. Project C (up to 35 electrified disabled parking bays) had subsequently been removed from the funding bid by the partnership developing the project; however, the Council would continue to work with the County Council with a view to progressing this in the future.
The Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice highlighted that due to the nature of the planning process it could not be guaranteed that planning permission would be granted for cable gullies; therefore there would need to be consideration during the pilot process of options to mitigate the risk to homeowners of paying for a planning application which may subsequently be refused. Eventually, this might involve permitted development rights for home EV chargers. Councillor Alex Hollingsworth, Cabinet Member for Planning and Housing Delivery, recommended that planning design guidance be produced both for the team leading the project and residents thinking of taking up the opportunity of a cable gully. It was also recommended that other electric vehicles such as cargo bikes, and the inter-operability of their charging formats, be considered as part of the pilot.
1. Grant approval for Oxford City Council to collaborate in the project (called OXLEVI) and funding bid in June 2022 and, if successful, to deliver the scheme, subject to negotiations with Government and partner organisations associated with the project;
2. Delegate authority to the Head of Corporate Strategy, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Zero Carbon Oxford and Climate Justice; the Cabinet Member for Health and Transport; the Head of Financial Services / s151 Officer; and the Council's Monitoring Officer to enter into funding, partnership, contracts and other necessary agreements for the purpose of delivering the scheme, including expenditure as necessary of remaining GULO grant funding held by the Council;

Appendix 1 , item 13. PDF 176 KB
Appendix 3 , item 13. PDF 71 KB
The Head of Community Services had submitted a report which highlighted the scheduled review of the Anti-Racism Charter and which asked Cabinet to approve the recommended changes and actions.
In presenting the report Councillor Shaista Aziz, Cabinet Member for Communities and Culture, highlighted the deep and wide ranging impacts of racism. Examples were provided of the disproportionate impacts of Covid on diverse communities, as well as impacts on education, health and employment. Addressing racism was fundamental to creating a fairer society.
The Charter, which had been developed as a result of a Council motion to make Oxford an anti-racist city, aligned with the Council's Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy and aimed to build trust and transparency within communities.
In response to a question, it was confirmed that the Charter would be reviewed every two years in order to enable sufficient time to implement any actions which arose. An action to develop a Gypsy, Roma and Traveller Communities definition had also been added following feedback.
1. Approve the updated Anti-Racism Charter at Appendix 1 and the actions shown in Table 1 of the report, subject to an amendment that review should take place every two years.

Appendix 1 , item 14. PDF 6 MB
The Executive Director (Communities and People) had submitted a report setting out the partnership work which had enabled the development of the draft Oxfordshire Food Strategy and which outlined the ambitions established in Part 1 which would guide the development of the action plan in Part 2.
Councillor Louise Upton, Cabinet Member for Health and Transport, highlighted that the Strategy aligned with many of the Council's corporate priorities and wider initiatives across the county. In addition to food poverty, the Strategy also included healthy eating; addressing health inequalities; the environmental impact of food and promoting biodiversity; security of food supply; and the social role of food in communities.
A detailed action plan, to underpin the Strategy, would be brought to Cabinet later in the year.
In considering the Strategy it was highlighted that, in terms of environmental impact, the term 'food miles' could be misleading. It was recommended that this should be clarified to 'carbon footprint' in future iterations. Additionally, consideration should be given in the future to including reference to farming methods.
1. Endorse the Oxfordshire Food Strategy Part 1, including the principles and framework for delivery;
2. Delegate authority to the Executive Director (Communities and People) in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Health and Transport and the Cabinet Member for Communities and Culture to make any necessary amendments to the draft strategy as it goes through the County and District approvals process, with a revised document returning in the autumn;
3. Note that Part 2 will see the development of a detailed action plan and that this will return to Cabinet in the autumn;
National Non-Domestic Rates Discretionary Rate Relief Policy PDF 119 KB
The Head of Financial Services has submitted a report to seek approval for an updated National Non-Domestic Rates Discretionary Relief policy.
1. Approve the updated National Non-Domestic Rates (NNDR) Discretionary Rate Relief policy as attached at Appendix 1.
Appendix 1 - Discretionary Rate Relief Policy 2022 , item 15. PDF 642 KB
Appendix 2 - Value of reliefs granted as at March 2022 , item 15. PDF 117 KB
The Head of Financial Services had submitted a report to seek approval for an updated National Non-Domestic Rates Discretionary Relief Policy.
Councillor Nigel Chapman, Cabinet Member for Citizen Focused Services, reported that the Policy related to reliefs which could be given to organisations which were considered to provide public and social value. These reliefs were given to some organisations (including charities and sports clubs) on a mandatory basis: the Policy allowed, and gave transparency on, discretion to give up to 100% relief to organisations which did not meet the mandatory criteria (such as arts organisations or youth clubs which did not have charitable status) but which nonetheless provided benefit to the community.
Repairs to 2-4 Gloucester Street & 24-26 George Street, Oxford PDF 117 KB
The Head of Corporate Property has submitted a report to seek approval for a budget of £770,000 for the repair of 2-4 Gloucester Street & 24-26 George Street, Oxford, in order to facilitate letting of the building.
1. Approve a budget of £770,000 to spend on 2-4 Gloucester Street & 24-26 George Street, Oxford from the existing budget assigned for Condition Survey works.
The Head of Corporate Property had submitted a report to seek approval for a budget of £770,000 for the repair of 2-4 Gloucester Street and 24-26 George Street, Oxford in order to facilitate letting of the building.
Councillor Ed Turner, Deputy Leader (Statutory) – Finance and Asset Management reported that the property (formerly 'Jamie's') had reverted to the Council following the company which previously held the lease entering into administration. Survey works were subsequently done, and had identified water ingress. A new tenant had now been found: however, substantial works were required to prevent further deterioration and to facilitate the letting. Cabinet was therefore asked to agree a spend for the works from the existing budget assigned for condition survey works.
In response to questions it was clarified that the building had been surrendered back to the Council in January 2021. The previous lease had been on a full repair basis; however, the administrator bore no health and safety or repair liabilities. The timescale for completing the works and leasing the building was expected to be around 10 months.
1. Approve a budget of £770,000 to spend on 2-4 Gloucester Street and 24-26 George Street, Oxford from the existing budget assigned for condition survey works.
Disposal of Council Dwelling Houses PDF 119 KB
The Head of Housing has submitted a report to seek approval for the sale of four Council owned properties on the open market, with the use of the resulting capital receipts into the General Fund for regeneration purposes.
1. Approve the disposal of the freeholds of 39 Long Close, 163 Walton Street, 8 Cowley Road and 46 Stubbs Avenue;
2. Approve the use of the resulting capital receipt into the General Fund for regeneration purposes; and
3. Delegate authority to the Executive Director (Communities and People), in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Housing, to approve the terms of sale for each property.
The Head of Housing had submitted a report to seek approval for the sale of four Council owned properties on the open market, with the use of the resulting capital receipts into the General Fund for regeneration purposes.
The Cabinet Member for Housing reported that the four properties were void, and were considered to be beyond economic repair. The principle of the disposals had been previously approved by Cabinet in January 2022 within an item on the Medium Term Financial Strategy.
The Leader recommended that preparation of the properties for sale should be made evident as soon as possible, in order to avoid any misperception that repair work was about to start.
In response to a question as to whether the Council might develop the properties itself prior to putting them for sale on the open market, the Head of Financial Services advised that the option of refurbishing the properties within the HRA had been considered as part of the budget setting process in February 2022. It would have required additional borrowing, and, as there was no capacity to undertake additional borrowing in the HRA over the next few years without breaching the interest covered covenant set for the HRA, this option had been rejected.
3. Delegate authority to the Executive Director (Communities and People) in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Housing to approve the terms of sale for each property.

On behalf of Cabinet, the Leader thanked Andrew for his work over a number of years in supporting Members and the Council, and wished him well for the future.


The Scottish Conservatives have claimed the SNP must acknowledge that people are "fed-up" with wind farm developments.
The party's energy spokesman Murdo Fraser said turbines "springing up all over the place" damaged the landscape for thousands of residents and tourists.
"In pressing on with their wind farm obsession the Scottish Government are failing to recognise that the planning process for these developments is a complete mess," he added.
Mr Fraser said it was now time for the SNP to rethink its energy policy and look at different options.
"Our policy is to have a balanced energy provision, including renewables, nuclear, oil and gas," he added.
Independent Highland anti-wind farm campaigner, Lyndsey Ward from Beauly near Inverness, said the study suggested areas where more research needed to be done and better practice developed.
"There is no whitewash but neither is there a greenwash – people's complaints and concerns are real," she added.
Ms Ward claimed the wind industry now needed to "step up to the plate" and put the needs and rights of communities first in the areas it wanted to develop.
The report was welcomed by Scotland Against Spin, a national organisation which campaigns for reform of wind energy policy.
Spokeswoman Linda Holt said the recommendations showed that the planning system was "ill-equipped" to address potentially adverse impacts on wind farm neighbours.
"For too long, decision-makers on wind farms have been asked to determine applications while blindfolded about the true impacts of placing enormous industrial machines near people's homes," she added.


Powell and Bellows were ecstatic to qualify for the state tournament.
"We lost our first two games which eliminated us because the tournament is double elimination. We both are seniors so we gave it our all and play hard," Powell said.
Taryn Tabor, junior, also made it to state in singles placing fifth at the home regionals tournament. The tennis team as a whole placed first in WAC.
"WAC was a very easy tournament for us we all played well," Tabor said.
Sophomore Carson Linenberger had to play against her teammate Tabor in a singles match to determine who would be advancing on to state. Linenberger started strong beating Tabor two to six in the first match. Tabor came back strong beating Linenberger six to two and six to four in the final two sets of the match.
"State was a tough competition, but we all had a good time. We wish our whole team could have gone," Tabor said.
Varsity Coach Rod Robinson was proud of the girls' performance at WAC, regionals, and state.
Both of the Buffs doubles teams swept the division.
The Buffs ended the day in first place scoring 14 points while second place finished with nine points.
"The girls got knocked out in two rounds of the state tournament," Robinson said.
"Over all we did about how I expected. I thought we might have a chance because our doubles team was strong and Taryn always fights hard," Robinson said.

More than 15,000 people visited the four-day 'Made in Qatar' exhibition that concluded on yesterday.
The fifth edition of the exhibition, which was inaugurated by the Emir HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al Thani at the Doha Convention and Exhibition Centre last Thursday, saw the participation of about 320 Qatari industrial companies and 140 productive families.
The mega exhibition was organised by Qatar Chamber in cooperation with the Ministry of Energy and Industry, Qatar Development Bank (QDB) and Qatar National Bank (QNB).
Qatar Chamber (QC) Chairman Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim al Thani said the exhibition allowed Qatari companies to showcase the industry and promote their products.
"In addition, they discussed with trade delegations and businessmen who visited the exhibition the possibility of establishing partnerships and alliances that contribute to the promotion of Qatari industry," he added.
The wide participation of exhibitors reflected the desire of the public and private sectors to develop the industrial sector and achieve the desired industrial growth for the country.
Sheikh Khalifa noted that Qatar's industrial sector has witnessed a remarkable development following the unjust siege both in terms of existing factories expanding their production lines and establishment of new factories.
The QC chairman said the number of industrial licences issued by the Ministry of Energy and Industry to investors since the beginning of the blockade has reached 200.
QC Director General Saleh bin Hamad al Sharqi said, "The Made in Qatar exhibition has been very successful both in terms of the wide participation of Qatari industrial companies and the huge attendance at the accompanying industrial forum."
Sharqi pointed out that the exhibition witnessed the signing of cooperation agreements and partnership agreements between several companies participating in the exhibition and foreign companies planning to enter the Qatari market.
He noted that the agreements signed during the exhibition included a cooperation between Kazakhstan and Qatar and an agreement between QDB and Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE) to encourage small and medium enterprises to be listed on the Qatari bourse.
Sharqi said the contracts signed during the exhibition included a partnership between Al Bandari Group and Presta Oil of Bulgaria, in addition to the announcement of the Al Mahtaba Factory for the establishment of the first textile factory in Qatar next year.
Sharqi said QC is in contact with exhibitors to evaluate the results of the exhibition at the level of deals and memorandums of understandings (MoUs) signed during the expo.
Many companies reached preliminary understandings of partnership and alliance with foreign companies and will be holding further their discussions after the exhibition, he said.
Sharqi said the next edition of the 'Made in Qatar' exhibition would be bigger and will see the participation of new factories that were established during the siege and began actual production during the period.

Time flies when you're having fun - The miles fly by too! You can make a long family car trip seem a lot shorter if you have fun with your kids along the way. Plan ahead with a few car activities, and making the journey can be as much fun as the destination. Here are a few ideas to get you started.
Give your kids their own copy of a map of where you are going. Show them how far you have come, how much further there is to go and let them mark it with a crayon. Every time someone asks "How much further?" let them see for themselves. You might also like to get a compass and show them how it works along with the map.
Give everyone a sheet of aluminum foil. Have them mold it into anything they want: animal shapes, Frisbees, balls, jewelry, crowns, headband, necklaces and masks. Be creative. It's inexpensive fun and easy to clean up. Toddlers love this one too.

Did Sean Payton Celebrate Too Early In Minnesota? [PHOTO]
Did Sean Payton celebrate too early in Minnesota?
Some fans are saying he did. Photos have emerged of the Saints head coach allegedly mocking Vikings fans with their "Skol" clap prior to the final play during Sunday's game in Minnesota.
Now, was he or was he not mocking the Vikings tradition prior to the end of the playoff game? One fan, who says he was sitting behind the Saints bench, says that Payton turned towards the crowd with :25 seconds left in the game and celebrated a victory---that never happened.
What do you think? Would Sean Payton ever do such a thing? Let us know what you think below. I should note here, there's no video of Payton doing such, yet. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
The Saints lost on the last play of the game to the Vikings, 29-24.

No plans to extend anti-littering laws to private estates like condominiums: Amy Khor

Senior Minister of State for the Environment and Water Resources Amy Khor speaking in Parliament on Monday (Aug 6).
By Lianne Chia @LianneChiaCNA
06 Aug 2018 05:37PM (Updated: 06 Aug 2018 05:41PM )
SINGAPORE: The Government has no plans to amend legislation and extend anti-littering laws to private estates such as condominiums, Senior Minister of State for the Environment and Water Resources Amy Khor said in Parliament on Monday (Aug 6).
Responding to a question from MP for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC Liang Eng Hwa, Dr Khor said that doing so would likely elicit a negative reaction, such as the laws being intrusive.
Mr Liang had asked whether the National Environment Agency (NEA) could extend the deployment of surveillance cameras beyond HDB estates to high-rise private estates to carry out enforcement against high-rise littering.
Dr Khor explained that the prohibition against littering under the Environmental Public Health Act applies only to publicly accessible places. Private estates such as Executive Condominiums (ECs) and private strata-titled condominiums are not regarded as such a place in law, as access to these places are restricted. This means, she said, that NEA is in turn unable to carry out enforcement against littering incidents carried out in these estates.
However, she noted that when approached by a condominium's management committee for assistance in the area of high-rise littering, NEA explores ways to collaborate with them to educate and advise residents against doing so.
She added that many condominiums already have by-laws that prohibit littering within their estates. "If all else fails, the management committee can apply to the courts to enforce these by-laws against errant residents," she said. "While the process may be challenging, MCSTs can nonetheless turn to these options if all other means at reaching out to the errant resident fails, including even community mediation."
Ultimately, Dr Khor stressed that home owners in private estates have the autonomy to govern and manage the shared private spaces in a responsible manner.
"For this to happen, residents should come together to encourage and influence acceptable social behaviour in their communities," she said.

Wait is over, guys! The latest version of Aspose.Cells for Java is here. I'm going to walk you through all the exciting features, improvements, and fixes. Don't worry, you'll know where you can find everything related to this latest update in a bit, but for now, let's talk about this new version and see what the team has been up to! Shall we?
There was a high demand, from you guys, that just like Excel, Aspose.Cells supports replacing special characters while opening a CSV file. So, we're very excited to break the news that this feature is now supported in the API. Just have a look at the below example to see how easy it is to achieve this with Aspose.Cells for Java.
API Reference (JavaDocs) has been updated along with improving the process of attaching JavaDocs to our API in the IDEs. Now, you should be able to utilize the API upto its full capacity with the help of the updated API Reference of Aspose.Cells for Java.
Based on our user's demand to access all the hyperlinks in a range of cells and delete anyone if required, we have supported this feature in this release. You can use Range.getHyperlinks() to get all the hyperlinks from a range, and then delete those using Hyperlink.delete() method.
Small integer variable was available to get the number of cells in the Worksheet. In the newer versions of Excel, when number of cells was increased, it was not possible to get the large number of cells. This shortcoming is corrected by providing appropriate data type which can be evaluated using sample code in this topic.
Alright! by now, you must have got pretty good idea of what we have been working on, since the last release, to help you improve and speed up your development efforts. Well, where you go from here on? Choice is yours!

Course Title: Food Production Systems and Sustainability (formerly Food Systems, Sustainability and Climate Change).
Description: This trans-disciplinary course delves into aspects of biological, social, and agricultural sciences underpinning the assessment of food production systems as related to mitigation and adaptation to climate change. After engaging students in an example multidisciplinary case-study of milk carbon foot-print, instructors will guide students through the development of their own food production and climate change case-study research projects culminating with students creating multi-media web-pages, giving audio-visual presentations, and (for grad students) writing a peer-review style article. Students will engage in collaborative projects with people from disparate disciplinary paradigms.
Overarching objective: Students will develop the skills to critically evaluate food production systems as they relate to sustainability and climate change using recent findings from biological, physical, and social sciences.
Students will learn to integrate knowledge from crop science, livestock science, environmental science, and social science about distinct production systems, including urban and rural, local and global, and small to industrial scale (see figure below).
adaptation to climate change: adapting management of production systems to changing weather patterns.
Students will learn how social structures profoundly affect not only people, but also biology, ecology, and our very climate (contribution to/mitigation of climate change). And the complement: how people's race/class/gender/occupation/nation status within the global social structure, as well as the nature of the global social structure itself, profoundly impacts their ability to cope with changing climate (adaptation to climate change).
developing analytic and problem solving skills as you use the information and evaluation tools.
audio-visual presentation of your findings.
Students will develop skills working with mixed teams including undergraduate students.
Students will hone their research and writing skills in drafting academically rigorous literature reviews.
Students will learn to assess the broader impacts of research beyond the academic setting.
To set the level of expectations and evaluate your progress and your work.
The course is divided in two main parts. Part 1 will engage you in reading and discussing recent research on food systems, sustainability and climate change. As an instructor, I have designed part 1 of the course as a inter-disciplinary approach to studying animal source food for humans and dairy production systems in particular as a the "instructor's project." What we will do in part 1 is meant in part to be a model for you to follow in developing your own project in part 2 of the course (Student Team Projects: creating your own multi-disciplinary team project on a topic of your choice). Not that the two parts are NOT sequential, but rather interleaved as more emphasis is given to part 1 at the beginning of the semester, only to let part 2 becoming a more important component of what we do in the class as the semester proceed.
Throughout the course the instructors will use a mix of the following techniques: the case-study teaching methodology, flipped classroom, and interactive class discussion of assigned readings. Course material will span social and natural science approaches to assessing sustainability of food production systems, with special emphasis on livestock production in domestic and international contexts. The instructors will model what they want students to do in their team projects in part 2 of the course. Using the example of milk production, and comparing large, confined, industrial milk production in Wisconsin with small, family-based, pasture production in Wisconsin, instructors will model: identifying a research question or problem and its various production, social, and environmental aspects, evaluating possible research methods and metrics, describing the results, and interpreting results. Using this dairy case study, instructors will also model how to develop web pages for public consumption and how to write peer-review style research articles.
As a result of Part 1, Students will have a good understanding of the relationships among "food," Production Systems," and "Sustainability" as illustrated in Figure 1. More importantly, students will be prepared to identify and address mitigation and adaptation issues of other food production systems in different parts of the world and how they may relate to one another.
The teaching method used in part 1 of the course emphasizes ACTIVE participation of students before, during and after class. The course will be based primarily on pre-assigned readings followed by in-class discussion of papers. The in-class time will include a variety of learning activities (case studies, group discussion, etc.). PowerPoint presentations will be used sparingly only to clarify key concepts as needed. The work you do before and after class: reading the articles, taking the quizzes, completing the pre- and post-class blogs, and doing other homework (as described on the Materials and Schedule page) is essential for you to do well in this class.
Concurrently with the development of knowledge through readings and discussions, students will learn and practice hands-on skills. Students will conduct group projects and practice several modes of communication, including designing web pages, public speaking, and writing for lay and scientific audiences. Each group will focus on a specific aspect of a specific type of food system, and compare the climate implications of at least two distinct production approaches within that food system.
After a series of library and web-development workshops, students will concurrently construct multi-media web pages as they advance their projects. Class will take the form of student-led presentations and discussion of their project content and their websites as they progress through specific project milestones. Instructors will give feedback and guidance in class. Groups will contain a mixture of undergraduate and graduate students who will work together towards and initial deliverable of an annotated bibliography and outline of their basic analysis to answer their research question. Then team members will communicate these results in separate products. Undergraduates are expected to take leadership on the design of a webpage that conveys the project analysis while graduate students are expected to place more time and effort on a peer-review style paper. At the end of the semester, each full team will give an audio-visual class presentation with project results.
Expectations: What am I expected to do to get good grades?
Be prepared for class and team work: Allocate enough time to read the papers carefully before class. Think of the reading and homework assignments as a way of helping yourself find out what you know and what you don't know or don't fully understand. For making sense of the course material, you have to continually question yourself, your teammates, your classmates and your instructor.
Reflect on readings: Synthesize the material from the readings through your own summaries to be posted on "pre-class blogs" that will be shared with other students.
Be an active participant in class: Active participation in class means listening, thinking, taking notes and asking questions. There are (almost) no stupid questions in this class. As long as you have a genuine interest in learning the subject matter, all questions will be valid questions! Be honest with yourself and you will find out what your current level of knowledge really is, and what your misunderstandings might be.
Reflect on what happened in the class afterward: To reward you for reflection on "what happened during activities and discussion, you are expected to submit a brief "post-class blog" after each class.
Students are allowed two attempts at each quiz, however the quiz grade will be assessed by averaging the scores of every attempt.
Deadline to complete the post-class blog is 2:00 PM the following class day. However you are encourage to complete the post-class blog within 24 hours after class.
Note that the blog entries and the quizzes should be completed as your own individual effort. If you have access to materials from previous offerings of the course, the act of copying/pasting answers or partially editing answers from others is an instance of academic misconduct, the definition of which includes "any act aimed at making false representation of one's academic performance." The University has strict rules and provides for disciplinary action on this issue. Please see the UW academic misconduct page for more details.
The group research project is, in some ways, the heart of the course. Through your efforts, with guidance and feedback from the instructor, you will learn how to make evidence-based assessments and recommendations. You will most likely learn to assess some aspect of food production systems sustainability (see Figure 1). Projects' emphasis will vary depending on teams' interest and will likely range from adaptation, mitigation, and social implications. Groups will form early in the semester to begin the important process of team-building and topic identification. The team project has been structured as "initial" and "final" deliverables (see grading scale below).
Team members will produce a peer-review style article summarizing the team project, modeled after a respected peer-reviewed journal. We expect graduate students to take the leadership, but surely undergraduate could and should contribute to this effort. Publishing in peer-reviewed journals allows researchers to contribute to our collective knowledge and to take an active role in their respective field. Publications contribute to your reputation and to your ability to fund your research projects and find engaging employment. Peer-reviewed publications are needed to establish the credibility of your work. The relatively high turn-around for journals allows you to communicate your research results and impact your field quickly.
Team members will develop a website that conveys the findings of their group project. The internet has become more of the most effective and important means of communication. Having the capability to develop and maintain your own web pages allows you to respond quickly to breaking news, present content exactly as you want, and save time and expense by avoiding intermediaries. As part of your group project, you and your team will develop your own web page in order to share what you have learned with the broader public. We expect undergraduate students to take the leadership, but surely graduate students could and should contribute to this effort.
Effective communication skills, including presentation ("delivery" of content) and discussion ("analysis and evaluation" of content), are vital for getting a job, getting your project funded, and communicating information so people understand it, remember it, and use it. Your team will be challenged to deliver effective and engaging presentation and discussion activities related to your project and findings.
1: Team grade adjustment: For each of the five phases of the project, team members will jointly make an initial plan (identify major steps, allocate tasks, set deadlines, etc.) of their respective contribution to the expected deliverable. At the deadline, each student will then complete a self evaluation along with an evaluation of team members for their actual contribution in relation to the initial plan. Adjustment points will be -2, -1, 0 (no adjustment, everyone in the team has the same grade), +1 or +2. The sum of your adjustment points will have to equal zero. In other words, if you give someone positive point(s) you will have to give someone else negative point(s).
2: How will final letter grade be assigned? A criterion-referenced grading will be used in this class and therefore you do not need to worry about your standing relative to others in this course. In fact, working together with others may be to everyone's advantage. The following is an approximate grading scale that the instructors will use to determine the letter grade associated with students' percentage achieved in the class (slightly from year to year may occur depending on specific circumstances). A = 100-90 | AB = 89-87 | B= 86-80 | BC = 79-77 | C = 76-70 | D = 69-60 | F = 59 or less.

UK Regulators Plan to Improve Diversity and Inclusion
The FCA, Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) and Bank of England (the regulators) are seeking views on regulatory plans to improve diversity and inclusion in financial services.
In a discussion paper, the regulators have set out policy options including, among others, the use of targets for representation, measures to make senior leaders directly accountable for diversity and inclusion in their firms, linking remuneration to diversity and inclusion metrics and the regulators' approach to considering diversity and inclusion in non-financial misconduct. The discussion paper also focuses on the importance of data and disclosure in order to enable firms, regulators and other stakeholders to monitor progress.
We believe increased diversity and inclusion will result in improved governance, decision making and risk management, a more innovative industry, and products better suited to the diverse needs of consumers https://t.co/dORFXC4eIp
— Financial Conduct Authority (@TheFCA) July 7, 2021
The regulators believe that increased diversity and inclusion will advance their statutory objectives by resulting in improved governance, decision-making and risk management within firms, a more innovative industry, and products and services better suited to the diverse needs of consumers.
Sam Woods, Deputy Governor for Prudential Regulation and Chief Executive Officer of the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) said:
"While some progress has been made to improve diversity and inclusion in parts of the financial services sector over the last decade, the discussion is still in its early stages, and more needs to be done to speed up progress. Regulators and industry need to work together to increase diversity at senior levels and ensure that the UK's financial services firms are best equipped to serve the economy. A lack of diversity of thought can lead to a lack of challenge to accepted views and ways of working, which risks compromising firms' safety and soundness.
The paper we have published today is intended to start a new conversation with firms about how we can best move forward across the sector, while we also take steps to improve diversity and inclusion within our own organisations. I encourage firms and other interested stakeholders to give us their views on our proposals."
Sir Jon Cunliffe, Deputy Governor for Financial Stability at the Bank of England, said:
"Diversity and inclusion is beneficial for financial stability. Groupthink and overconfidence are often at the root of financial crises. Enabling a diversity of thought and allowing for an array of perspectives to coexist supports a resilient, safe and effective financial system. The paper we have published invites a discussion on our thinking on how the industry, including Financial Market Infrastructure firms (FMIs), can develop its approach to diversity and inclusion, in line with our objective to ensure sound, robust financial markets."
Nikhil Rathi, Chief Executive of the FCA said:
"We are concerned that lack of diversity and inclusion within firms can weaken the quality of decision-making. We look forward to an open discussion on how we should use our powers to further diversity and inclusion within financial services, to the mutual benefit of firms and their customers."
To assess progress the authorities are proposing collecting data from firms about their workforce. Prior to this there will be a one-off, pilot survey later this year which will help to develop the proposals set out in the discussion paper and test how firms' can provide data with a view to considering regular reporting in the future.
The regulators are also asking for views on how any changes could be tailored to specific categories of firms to ensure it is proportionate.
The discussion paper is open until 30 September. The feedback and data received will be used to develop detailed proposals, with a joint consultation planned for Q1 2022.
