		<title>Ecclesiastical Exemption: Rescue responds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Background: See the revised order, laid before the house on the 6 April. https://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2010/uksi_20101176_en_1
Since the publication of Power of Place in 2001, the Government has strongly advocated the simplification of the planning process, through the integration of the various issues regarding heritage protection into a single unified consents regime.
Although in abeyance at the present time, the draft Heritage Bill manifested this principle, drawing together Scheduled Monument Consents and Listed Buildings controls into a single designations system, and including provisions for historic landscapes and battlefields.
This approach has been broadly supported by ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Planning permission has still not been given for English Heritage&#8217;s new visitor-facilities (May 2010).
A decision awaits resolution of issues arising from the Stonehenge Alliance&#8217;s solicitor&#8217;s letter to Wiltshire Council on the matter of its Appropriate Assessment of the impact of the proposed development on nearby Special Areas of Conservation (The River Avon and Salisbury Plain) that are protected by European legislation.
The Council&#8217;s reply to that letter, dated 21 May 2010, is currently being considered by the Alliance&#8217;s solicitor.

		<title>City of Adelaide</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As reported in RN 109 the City of Adelaide built in Sunderland in 1864, has been rotting away on a slipway in Irvine, Ayrshire, since May 1992 while a debate has continued about her future.
The Scottish Maritime Museum has been unable to raise funds for its restoration and had proposed &#8216;scientific deconstruction to solve the problem that they could no longer retain the mooring where the ship was stored. No Heritage Lottery Fund money was available, either for any preservation plan or, Scottish Maritime Museum&#8217;s proposed &#8216;scientific deconstruction.
