	Liverpool - LoveToKnow Watches (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		In 1826 the corporation founded two elementary schools, one of which, the North Corporation school, was erected in part substitution for the grammar school founded by John Crosse, rector of St Nicholas Fleshshambles, London, a native of Liverpool, in 1515, and carried on by the Corporation until 1815.
		The Institute was a development of the Mechanics' Institute and was managed by a council of subscribers.
		They constituted from the first a public trust, the corporation never having derived any direct revenue from them, though the common council of the borough were the trustees, and in the first instance formed the committee of management.

	A sketch of Runcorn history. Runcorn & District Historical Society
		Runcorn is not mentioned in the Domesday Book but was a dependent manor of Halton which was the fourth largest manor in Cheshire with 38 people recorded (giving a total population of about 200 allowing for their families).
		Runcorn's reputation as a port was greatly enhanced and a report of the directors of the St. Helens and Runcorn Gap Railway in 1832 refers to the "rapid increase of coasting traffic in Runcorn which has nearly doubled within the last three years".
		In 1961 Runcorn's population was 26,035; in 1967 - 27,480.

	House of Commons Hansard Debates for 19 Jun 1989
		I find it quite amazing to be told it was purely the choice of the development corporation when the Warrington housing association wrote that it had been involved in discussions up to and including ministerial level and had asked that Warrington borough council be involved.
		Unfortunately, the Warrington and Runcorn development corporation chose completely to ignore the wishes of those people, saying that they had been subject to pressure from councillors and had not received all the information.
		Three weeks ago, just as the development corporation was reaching the conclusion of its negotiations with RUNHAG on price, Halton borough council decided that it might--and I stress might--be interested in acquiring the new town housing and threatened legal action to achieve that end.

		The greatly increased yield of the town affords evidence, however, that the earl was doing his best to develop its resources, and the beginning of a period of prosperity may perhaps be attributed to this time.
		For the burgesses indeed, the development of their own institutions (which now entered on a striking new phase) was more vital than political or religious events.

	LIFE OF JAMES BRINDLEY Samuel Smiles
		In Macclesfield and the neighbourhood, where the inventions of men such as Brindley have issued in so extraordinary a development of wealth, the operations of trade were as yet in their infancy, and had numerous obstructions and difficulties to contend against.
		The same year in which application was made to Parliament for powers to construct the Sankey Canal, the Corporation of Liverpool had under their consideration a much larger scheme--no less than a canal to unite the Trent and the Mersey, and thus open a water-communication between the ports of Liverpool and Hull.
		From Runcorn, it was arranged that the beats should navigate by the open tideway of the Mersey to the harbour of Liverpool, at which place the Duke made arrangements to provide another dock for their accommodation.

		It incorrectly asserts that the tenants of the Warrington and Runcorn development corporation will not be given a choice about their future landlord.
		Indeed, I dare assert that in practically every developed country, on both sides of the iron curtain, Governments are now involved to some degree in quite drastic reform of their health care systems.
		The first development, which I will deal with briefly, because we debated it last week, is the advance we have made on the contract for the payment of general practitioners.

	Audit Commission - Cosmopolitan Housing Association - Inspection report
		The review of new development in 2002 raised the issue of tenant involvement needing to be improved however this has not been addressed.
		The stock managed from the Runcorn office was the result of a transfer from Warrington Runcorn Development Corporation in 1989.
		It is current practice to extend the period of a starter tenancy that is in arrears at the end of the 12 month period, which reduces the security of tenure of the tenant and does not resolve the issue of outstanding rent.

		This latter is rendered most difficult by reason of the declivity of the country, as well as by the permeability of the ground in the zone of the mining concessions.
		To understand the situation we should know that the development of traffic at Rotterdam is directly connected with the industrial growth of Westphalia and Rhenish Prussia and the expansion of their commercial relations with countries beyond the seas.
		The corporation of the city adopted the project and, having employed the celebrated James Watt to make surveys of the ground, obtained an act of Parliament for carrying out the design and subscribed to a number of shares of the stock.

		Salt was important for a number of reasons: it improved Liverpool's communications with its hinterland and led ultimately to the development of canals.
