Download or read book The management of secondary legislation written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Merits of Statutory Instruments Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008-03-12 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a follow-up to the Merits of Statutory Instruments Committee 29th report, session 2005-06 (HL Paper 149-I, ISBN 9780104008409). The earlier report set out some recommendations on how the process of making secondary legislation could be improved, and this report examines that progress. Statutory Instruments (SIs), often described as secondary legislation, are the means by which government departments implement the policy measures laid down by Acts of Parliament (primary legislation). There are approximately 1200 SIs laid for parliamentary proceedings each year. The Committee believes that Government Department's still need to do more to improve the planning and quality of SIs and the policy delivered through them, such a step would help in the Committee's process of scrutiny, as well as easing the impact of such legislation on stakeholders. The Committee further invites the Government to consider the timing and cumulative impact of SIs on those regulated and that Department's should pay more attention to the strategic planning of SIs, especially those delivering a policy set by a new Act. Also the Committee states that more resources should be devoted to the consolidation and simplification of secondary legislation so that the law is clearer and more accessible. The Committee does welcome the new format of Impact Assessments (IAs) which should be provided for key measures affecting public and voluntary sectors. Every SI or its Explanatory Memorandum should clearly express its policy objective and how the success is to be measured and evaluated. Each Department is responsible for its own secondary legislation and the Committee invites each Secretary of State to ensure that senior management systematically checks the quality of such legislation.

Download or read book Member States versus the European Union written by Alan Littler and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2011-04-11 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1990s the European Court of Justice has provided an institutional backdrop from which the requirements of EU law regarding gambling regulation are evolving. Given the total absence of harmonisation, Member States are competent to regulate gambling conditional upon such regulation being compatible with EU law. This book analyses the regulatory approaches undertaken in France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom regarding a variety of forms of online and offline gambling with a view to assessing the compatibility of these approaches. Furthermore it illustrates prevailing commonalities between the regimes and injects a degree of realism into the debate, softening the hard stance taken by stakeholders at opposite ends of the policy spectrum.

Download or read book The Regulation of Gambling written by Alan David Littler and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In November 2005 Tilburg University hosted for the first time an international "Colloquium on the European and National Perspectives of the Regulation of Gambling," The results of this exciting day are reflected in this book which brings together a wide range of perspectives from the contemporary debate surrounding the regulation of gambling markets within the context of the European Union. Not only does the book encompass both ends of the spectrum of the current discussion; it also brings together the perspectives of academics, lawyers and operators. The debate on the regulation of gambling has been gathering pace following a series of judgments of the ECJ. In 2006 gambling was excluded from the proposed Services Directive, and the European Commission commenced infringement proceedings against a handful of Member States regarding restrictions on the supply of sports betting services. Given these developments and being one of the very few publications concerned with this topic, this book will serve as a timely and valuable contribution for all those interested in this emerging and at times decisive debate.

Download or read book Unclaimed assets within the financial system written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Treasury Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-08-06 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between £400 to £500 million is currently held in dormant bank and building society accounts in the UK where, for whatever reason, a financial institution has lost contact with an account holder. A large proportion of this money will never be reclaimed by its rightful owner. The Government, working with the banking industry, has therefore proposed the establishment of an unclaimed assets scheme to put these dormant accounts to productive use whilst continuing to recognise the ongoing rights of customers to reclaim their accounts at any stage. The Committee's report examines the proposed legislative framework for the scheme and its regulation, how to define and identify dormant accounts, the scope of the scheme, the proposed scheme to reunify customers with dormant accounts, a centralised national register for unclaimed assets, dormant accounts in building societies, the distribution of funds released from unclaimed assets, funding of a Social Investment Bank and local disbursement options.

Download or read book Heritage Lottery Fund written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-10-23 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it was set up in 1994, the Heritage Lottery Fund has awarded £3.8 billion of funding to some 24,000 projects covering all types of heritage with a wide range of benefits. The Fund operates within a framework of policy directions issued by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and currently distributes one sixth of the money raised by the National Lottery for good causes. Following on from a NAO report (HCP 323, session 2006-07; ISBN 9780102944624) published in March 2007, the Committee's report looks at how the money has been spent, what has been achieved, and the effectiveness of the grant-making process to ensure value for money. Conclusions reached include that the Fund has successfully reduced the amount of undistributed money it holds but spends around nine per cent of its annual income on administration. Many applicants find the Fund's application and assessment processes confusing, off-putting, and unnecessarily burdensome, and there are significant variations in funding between regions. The Fund is not able to demonstrate effectively its impact in opening up the heritage to people from deprived or minority backgrounds. Although projects are largely delivered to time and cost, the Fund needs to do more to tackle the poor project management skills of some grant recipients. From April 2009, the Government intends to divert more than £160 million from the Fund to help pay for the 2012 Olympics and the Fund's income may be further reduced by as much as £95 million if ring-fenced income from Olympic lottery games diverts sales from other lottery games.
