Download or read book HL 189 HC 1293 Legislative Scrutiny 1 Criminal Justice and Courts Bill and 2 Deregulation Bill written by Great Britain: Parliament: Joint Committee on Human Rights and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joint Committee on Human Rights welcomes the provision in the Criminal Courts and Justice Bill, carried over from the last Session of this Parliament, which extends the current offence of possession of extreme pornography to include possession of pornographic images depicting rape and other non-consensual sexual penetration. The Committee considers this provision to be human rights enhancing, given the evidence of cultural harm done by such pornography, and acknowledges the strong justification provided for this proportionate restriction on individual rights. However, some of the provisions of the Bill cause concern. The Committee is disappointed that the Government has not examined the provisions of the Bill against all the relevant international standards relating to the rights of children. It urges the Government to provide further information in relation to SEN provision in secure colleges; and recommends that the Bill be amended to make explicit that secure college rules can only authorise the use of reasonable force on children as a last resort. The Committee also reports on the Deregulation Bill. It expresses its concern that application of the economic growth duty in that Bill to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) risks the possibility of that body's UN accredited 'A' status being downgraded and could put the UK in breach of its obligations under EU equality law. It recommends that this duty not be applied to the EHRC unless that body is satisfied that it can be done in a way that will not restrict its independence.

This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having looked at the Draft Deregulation Bill in some detail and taken evidence from a wide range of witnesses, the Committee does not think it is appropriate for Ministers to be given power to scrap legislation by order on the subjective test that it is 'no longer of practical use'. There is a risk that to give Ministers that power would undermine effective Parliamentary scrutiny. It was also felt unnecessary when the Law Commissions currently have the power to put forward outdated Bills for abolition anyway. The Law Commissions will need to make changes to their working practices in order to produce more frequent and more responsive Statute Law (Repeals) Bills. The Government should work with the Law Commissions to streamline the process for bringing forward these Bills. As for the duty on regulators to have regard to economic growth, whilst this is supported in principle, it is important that it is not used by Government to undermine the independence of regulators in the way it is implemented. It might be helpful if that provision were explicitly included in the Bill
Download or read book Evaluation of Legislation written by Council of Europe and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evaluation of the effects of laws is a relatively recent development in Europe. Its growing importance is related to changes in the form of legislation, which is often targeted to achieve certain goals. In these circumstances, the proper application of legal norms alone is no longer sufficient, it is also necessary to verify whether the goals pursued are actually attained. Evaluation of legislation therefore means the assessment of the foreseeable or actual impact of laws to clarify the extent to which the actual impact is consistent with the stated objectives, to identify undesirable effects and to assess the coherency of the means used to attain the objectives. This publication reflects the contribution of the Council of Europe to two bilateral seminars organised with the authorities of Georgia (October 2000) and Ukraine (March 2001). It is organised into two sections: the issues at stake , and European experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a compendium of the United Kingdom's Parliamentary debates on The Human Rights Act of 1998, one of the most far- reaching pieces of legislation of this century. This act for the first time incorporated positive rights into UK law, drastically changing its political and legal landscape. By reproducing segments of the debates, the editors attempt to bring alive the process which impelled the government and parliament to enact it, paying particular attention to its underlying principles and the Pepper v Hart statements on its interpretation.

An outline of the administration (organs, agencies, individual persons etc. in specific administrative law areas) in the framework of the territorial and functional organisation of the State. 3 Which instruments are available to the administration? An overview of the available public law instruments and the possibility to use private law instruments. 4 Which (formal) rules/principles (written or unwritten) govern administrative actions? An elaboration on decision-making procedures (public participation etc.) under general administrative law and specific areas of administrative law as well as more substantive rules/principles for administrative actions/decisions: 'due process in administrative matters'. 5 Access to (administrative) courts against administrative actions/decisions. Who can go to which courts (constitutional, administrative or ordinary) and are prior out-of-court proceedings necessary? How intensive or marginal is the test (of discretionary administrative powers) by the courts and what are the possible rulings of the court (based on a remedy- system for the plaintiff or on more general powers for the courts). 6 Recent and future developments and conclusions. The final chapter offers comparative remarks by the editors.

Download or read book Impact Assessment in the EU written by Andrea Renda and published by CEPS. This book was released on 2006 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of ex ante and ex post impact assessment in streamlining the regulatory environment and improving the legislative process has been stressed by scholars and testified to by international best practices. The potential benefits of regulatory impact assessment are also being rediscovered by EU officials, who lose no chance to recall that the Commission's ambitious "growth and jobs" strategy heavily depends on the pervasiveness of impact assessment in the regulatory process at EU and member state level. This study, conceived for scholars and policymakers, provides an overview of the state of the art on impact assessment. It focuses on the latest developments in the United States, UK, and EU, and presents a scorecard analysis of the Commission's extended impact assessments. The author concludes with a road map for improving the transparency, efficiency, and effectiveness of the EU Integrated Impact Assessment model.

This book was released on 2013-05-20 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been repeated criticism in recent years from a variety of sources about both the quantity and quality of legislation. The Committee's inquiry into Ensuring standards in the quality of legislation has considered these criticisms, analysed the core problems and causes of bad quality legislation, and looked to provide solutions for both the Government and Parliament to improve the quality of legislation. The Scottish Parliament, Northern Ireland Assembly and National Assembly for Wales have adapted the Westminster model in order to improve the quality of their legislation; it is now the turn of Westminster to look at their processes and adapt them for use here. The Committee has concluded that it would be beneficial for Parliament and the Government to work together to agree standards for what makes good legislation, and as a starting point for discussion publishes a draft Code of Legislative Standards with the report. The Committee also recommends the creation of a Joint Legislative Standards Committee to provide oversight of the Cabinet's Parliamentary Business and Legislation Committee's approach to and use of the finalised Code of Legislative Standards, to ensure that the quality standards set out in the Code of Legislative Standards are met. The Committee considers that these recommendations would also improve the quality of constitutional legislation, in particular, by requiring the Government to adopt an agreed test to identify constitutional legislation and thereby improve Parliament's scrutiny of it
