		Das Projekt der "Strathclyde Concertos" ist das Ergebnis einer einzigartigen Zusammenarbeit einer lokalen Behörde mit einer Künstlerorganisation.
		Alle "Strathclyde Concertos" wurden aufgenommen und werden weltweit vertrieben.
		Though the Strathclyde cycle has represented a sustained examination of the possibilities of concerto discourse, the specificity of each concerto has stemmed from totally different musical and poetic concerns, and has borne the imprint of whatever other instrumental, vocal or dramatic music has engaged Davies's pluralistic imagination at the time.

	Property Management and Mapping with ArcInfo
		The Regional Council provides a range of services to the 2.3 million people who live in the region.

		I agree with the submission that the Regional Council are not restricted to the appointment of agents.

		Pat Lally is leader of the Glasgow District Council Labour Group and his remark on the fleeting existence of things was part of his explanation of his rejection of the murals in Glasgow's Concert Hall.
		The shock which greeted his announcement was partly to do with the manner in which it was made, but it was mainly because almost everyone concerned with the original commission, the artist and Strathclyde Regional Council, had believed that the works were to be on permanent display in the Concert Hall.
		Strathclyde Regional Council cannot be faulted on their treatment of the artist.

	John Stathatos, "Piety & Impiety: The Little Spartan Wars"
		By this token, the artist's challenge to the bureaucrats of Strathclyde Region is not a piece of opportunistic street theatre but a reflection, albeit a partly symbolic one, of the principles espoused by the French revolutionaries commemorated in the garden's monuments and inscriptions.
		The dispute between Finlay and the various avatars of Strathclyde Regional Council is clearly as much one of language as of legalities, of style no less than substance: reading through these documents, it is immediately apparent that two different languages, two different ways of describing and ordering the world are here locked in conflict.
		By November 1980, Strathclyde lost patience with Finlay and issued the first of a long string of Summary Warrants against him, warrants which it was clear the artist had no intention of complying with – or at least, not unless and until he was granted the opportunity of debating the issue on his own terms.

	Maryhill
		The North West was the last of the pre-war wholetime fire stations in Strathclyde and the new Maryhill will be the last built prior to the forthcoming local government reform.
		The Brigade and, indeed, the people of Strathclyde owe a debt of gratitude to Strathclyde Regional Council for its commitment to the programme of replacement of obsolete fire stations.
		Strathclyde Fire Brigade looks forward to working even more closely with the communities it serves and to enjoying as positive a relationship with the new Fire Board.

		If any material part of the treatment included elements of a sexual nature to which a woman was vulnerable, but a man would not be, this will amount to less favourable treatment on the ground of sex.

	Justification of unequal pay - UK Employment. Pensions & Benefit Law Developments (Legal500.com)
		The House of Lords has recently had to consider, in Strathclyde Regional Council and Others v Wallace and Others, the question of justification in the context of equal pay claims.The case involved a claim by women teachers that they did the same work as principal teachers but were paid at a lower rate.
		Strathclyde Regional Council were able to point to a number of reasons for the disparity in pay and the industrial tribunal, having accepted these reasons had gone on to consider whether the reasons justified the disparity.
		In the industrial tribunal's view, case law demanded that justification was required in every case where an employer sought to establish a s3(3) defence under the Equal Pay Act (ie that the discrimination was genuinely due to a material factor, which is not the difference of sex).

		SIR Robert Calderwood, one-time chief executive of Strathclyde Regional Council, could be a larger-than-life figure whose big frame reflected a blunt approach.
		What particularly concerned him was the deleterious effect on youngsters, who in his view gained skewed experiences of the democratic process and responsibilities of adult life by changing addresses frequently and simply not paying.
		In industry, he was headhunted by Strathclyde Buses as chairman and as a director of GEC Scotland, while he served the arts as deputy chairman of Scottish opera, and education as a governor of Glasgow Caledonian University.

		Ayr County Council, which was also disappearing, had a network of community associations and the Town Council decided to investigate that avenue of continuing some activities despite having no community centre to run as most associations had.
		The community council also conducted a community survey to find out people’s views on a range of subject, and also became involved with West Sound in its early days when it was more community oriented instead of mainly a music channel.

		We merely wish to highlight to the Scottish people today that as our parliament sits in the old Strathclyde Regional Council Buildings with the limitations currently placed on the Edinburgh Parliament it can be compared to Scotland’s Regional Council.
