Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2022 Inner Temple New Authors Book Prize. This book seeks to further our understanding of the nature of administrative law doctrine and adjudication. It has three main aims. The first is to improve understanding of administrative law's 'anatomy' by pulling the subject apart and exploring the nature of the legal structures at play in adjudication. In doing so, the book emphasises three main ways in which administrative law's anatomy is both complex and diverse, namely: - administrative law doctrine interacts with a broad array of legislative frameworks; - administrative law adjudication seeks to accommodate a variety of legal values; and, - administrative law is concerned with legal relationships of different kinds. The second aim is to illustrate the importance of recognising the complexity and variety of administrative law's anatomy in three particular doctrinal contexts: procedural review, legitimate expectations and standing. The third and final aim is to raise an important but under-explored question: is it plausible and useful to attempt to make sense of administrative law doctrine by reference to a singular organising concept or principle? The overarching message of the book is one of cynicism. The complexity and variety of administrative law's legal structures probably means that attempts to explain the field 'monistically', while they may capture important themes, will be unhelpfully reductionist. Ambitious and thought-provoking, this is an important new statement on administrative law.

Download or read book Bringing Home the Housing Crisis written by Mel Nowicki and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2023-04-27 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often portrayed as an apolitical space, this book demonstrates that home is in fact a highly political concept, with a range of groups in society excluded from a ‘right to home’ under current UK policies. Drawing on resident interviews and analysis of political and media attitudes across three case studies – the criminalisation of squatting, the bedroom tax and family homelessness – the book explores the ways in which legislative and policy changes dismantle people’s rights to secure, decent and affordable housing by framing them as undeserving.

Download or read book Law in a Complex State written by Neville Harris and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately half of the total UK population are in receipt of one or more welfare benefits, giving rise to the largest single area of government expenditure. The law and structures of social security are highly complex, made more so by constant adjustments as government pursues its often conflicting economic, political and social policy objectives. This complexity is highly problematic. It contributes to errors in decision-making and to increased administrative costs and is seen as disempowering for citizens, thereby weakening enjoyment of a key social right. Current and previous administrations have committed to simplifying the benefits system. It is a specific objective of the Welfare Reform Act 2012, which provides for the introduction of Universal Credit in place of diverse benefits. However, it is unclear whether the reformed system will be either less complex legally or more accessible for citizens. This book seeks to explain how and why complexity in the modern welfare system has grown; to identify the different ways in which legal and associated administrative arrangements are classifiable as 'complex'; to discuss the effects of complexity on the system's administration and its wider implications for rights and the citizen-state relationship; and to consider the role that law can play in the simplification of schemes of welfare. While primarily focused on the UK welfare system it also provides analysis of relevant policies and experience in various other states.

This book was released on 2012-12-10 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Security Advisory Committee undertook a public consultation exercise as part of their review of universal credit and related regulations and reported that the majority of respondents were broadly supportive of the Government's ambitions to simplify the benefits system. The Committee made 36 recommendations across six broad themes: overarching issues; self employment; housing; the benefit cap; conditionality and sanctions; and claims and payments. The Government brings forward regulations which address a number of the Committee's concerns and make improvements to the way in which universal credit will operate. These include the detailed arrangements for self-employed people, provisions to pay housing cost support for those living in supported exempt accommodation outside of universal credit, and provisions to provide alternative payment arrangements to support claimants as they move to universal credit. The Government also accepts the Committee's recommendations to monitor and evaluate the impact of the implementation of universal credit. The Department is also assembling an export advisory group to help with the evaluation of universal credit

Book excerpt: Published in association with the SPA, Social Policy Review 27 draws together international scholarship at the forefront of addressing concerns that emphasise both the breadth of social policy analysis, and the expanse of issues with which it is engaged. Contributions to this edition focus on the effects of financialisation on services and care provision, policies to address deficiencies in housing and labour markets, and ways in which the study of social policy may need to develop to respond to its changing material concerns. A themed section explores the place of comparative welfare modelling in the context of change over the last quarter of a century to consider where scholarship has been and where it might be going.

Download or read book The Jobseeker s Allowance Mandatory Work Activity Scheme Regulations 2011 S I 2011 No 688 written by Social Security Advisory Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-03-14 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The large majority of those claiming Jobseeker's Allowance make every effort to find work. But some customers do just enough to meet the conditions of their claim while at the same time continually failing to demonstrate the focus and discipline that is a key requirement of finding, securing and retaining employment. Mandatory Work Activity is being introduced to enable advisers to address this problem, supporting this particular group of customers at the earliest possible stage. But the Committee finds that published evidence is at best ambivalent about the chances of such 'workfare' type activity improving outcomes for people who are out of work. It is worried about the precedent set by appearing to punish claimants who are satisfying the conditionality rules (otherwise they would be subject to a sanction) but who, in the view of a Personal Adviser appear to display what is deemed to be the 'wrong attitude'. The Committee's key recommendation is that the introduction of this scheme should not continue. Its concerns cover the general principles of the proposals; the way participants will be selected; how placements will be structured and monitored; and the sanction regime attached. The Government, however, does not accept the Committee's recommendations or suggestion that the scheme is a punishment, and sets out its reasons for its position. The proposals are to go ahead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In July 2010 the Government published a consultation document "21st Century Welfare" (Cm.7913, ISBN 9780101791328). This set out a range of options for reform of the welfare system. As a result the Government produced a White Paper, "Universal Credit: Welfare that Works" (Cm. 7957, ISBN 9780101795722), alongside the Government's responses to the consultation (Consultation Responses to 21st Century Welfare (Cm. 7971, ISBN 9780101797122). The White Paper set out the Government's proposals for welfare reform, which aims to improve work incentives, simplify the benefits system and make it less costly to administer. This Bill gives effect to those proposals. The major proposal, as set out in the Bill, is the introduction of a new benefit, to be known as Universal Credit, which will replace existing in and out of work benefits. The Bill also makes provision for another new benefit, Personal Independence Payment, which will replace the existing Disability Living Allowance. The Bill consists of seven parts, and is set out as follows: Part 1: Universal Credit; Part 2: Working-age benefits; Part 3: Other benefit changes; Part 4: Personal independence payment; Part 5: Social security: general; Part 7: Final - sets out the repeals to existing legislation; financial provision and territorial extent. An Explanatory Note, HCB 154-EN, is also available (see ISBN 9780215546715).
