Scrabster Harbour’s Post

Thames Valley Chamber of Commerce CEO Paul Britton joined a major policy announcement at the iconic Pinewood Group Limited earlier this morning, where the Prime Minster delivered his 'Plan for Change' speech. Paul said: "The announcement of 150 infrastructure projects stood out, and we will be lobbying to make the case for Western Rail Access to Heathrow and other digital, road and rail improvements. Hitting these milestones is going to require outstanding execution to make change happen and this is where it has faltered in the past."

🚨 Press Release: Cobh and Harbour Chamber Expresses Continued Frustration Over Road access 🚨 The Chamber has been actively highlighting the need for the redevelopment of the R624 for over 50 years. The recent An Bord Pleanála decision further underscores the urgent need for investment in infrastructure to support both commercial and residential development, which is crucial to our community’s growth, safety and sustainability. The current inadequate infrastructure significantly impacts any future development of the area. The R624 as the sole access road to the area needs to be upgraded to a national road and to come under the Transport Infrastructure Ireland's remit. We urgently call on public representatives and Cork County Council to prioritise this issue and work collaboratively to achieve this. The Cobh and Harbour Chamber remains committed to engaging with stakeholders on behalf of our region. The Cobh and Harbour Chamber notes with huge disappointment the impact which the recent decision by An Bord Pleanála to decline permission for the proposed port facility at Marino Point will have on the continued and future development of the Great Island and Harbour area.

Another win today in the Supreme Court of Queensland. This time we succeeded in having an application for the separate determination of questions dismissed with costs. Ordinarily, all issues of fact and law in a proceeding should be tried at once. While courts have discretion to order that a question or questions be determined separately before the trial of the proceeding, that discretion ultimately must be exercised having regard to what is just and convenient. In this case, Justice Kelly agreed with our arguments as to why certain questions posed by the Defendants should not be determined separately in advance of the trial. His Honour found that "the defendants have failed to establish that the proposed separate trial involves utility, economy and fairness to all the parties. It has not been demonstrated to my satisfaction that it is desirable for the Court to embark upon the path of a separate trial." For those interested, the judgment is Brisbane Cruise Wharf Pty Ltd v Body Corporate for Portside Wharf Principal Community Titles Scheme 36407 [2024] QSC 128.

🇺🇸 #USA: the #collapse of the "Francis Scott Key" bridge in #Baltimore has raised questions about the safety of maritime #infrastructure. Although the bridge was not among the oldest, its failure highlights the need to adapt to the size and #safety of modern ships. With more than 42,000 bridges rated in poor condition, there is urgent need for investment in the sector. #Webuild - Read more in #WebuildValue 👉 https://bit.ly/3vKifT2

When I first joined Galbraith in 2017, Mike Reid took me with him to visit some of our clients who were going to be impacted by the dualling of the A9. At the time, we met with Transport Scotland to discuss the draft Compulsory Purchase Orders and seven years later, the Scottish Ministers are finally in a position to take occupation of the land required to build the new A9. There has been considerable delay with the project but with a proposed new completion date of 2035 it is good to see some progress being made. If you would like to read more about the progress made and what it means when the Scottish Ministers take occupation of land through CPO then please do read our article with the link below 👇 #Galbraith | #A9 | #CPO
