Download or read book Department for Communities and Local Government Memorandum Post Legislative Scrutiny Planning Act 2008 Cm 8716 written by Great Britain: Department for Communities and Local Government and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-10-21 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Planning Act 2008 created a new system of development consent for certain types of nationally significant infrastructure, including major energy infrastructure, railways, ports, roads, airports, water and waste projects which were deemed to be of national significance. The regime is still fairly new, with only 12 applications having gone all of the way through the system to completion. However it is clear that the new regime is working as intended and is leading to quicker planning decisions. For example the approval of Hinkley Point C was approved within the one year statutory timeframe. A large part of the reason why that decision was taken more quickly is because the Energy National Policy Statements make it clear that the construction of new low carbon electricity generation infrastructure is of crucial national importance. The regime has not stood still since it was introduced. It has been amended by the Localism Act and the Growth and Infrastructure Act. The changes made by the Localism Act - the removal of the Infrastructure Planning Commission and the restoration of Ministers as the final decision makers - are seen as restoring democratic accountability to the regime. It is too early too judge the effectiveness of the changes introduced in the Growth and Infrastructure Act.
Download or read book World Economic Outlook April 2009 written by International Monetary Fund. Research Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2009-04-22 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Economic Outlook explores how a dramatic escalation of the financial crisis in September 2008 provoked an unprecedented contraction of activity and trade, despite active policy responses. It presents economic projections for 2009 and 2010, and also looks beyond the current crisis, considering factors that will shape the landscape of the global economy over the medium term, as businesses and households seek to repair the damage. The analysis also outlines the difficult policy challenges presented by the overwhelming imperative to take all steps necessary to restore financial stability and revive the global economy, and the longer-run need for national actions to be mutually supporting. The first of two analytical chapters, "What Kind of Economic Recovery?" explores the shape of the eventual recovery. The second, "The Transmission of Financial Stress from Advanced to Emerging and Developing Economies," focuses on the role of external financial linkages and financial stress in transmitting economic shocks.

Download or read book Disaster Studies written by Janki Andharia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers several dimensions of disaster studies as an emerging discipline. It is the inaugural book in the series ‘Disaster Studies and Management’ and deals with questions such as “Is disaster management a field of practice, a profession, or simply a new area of study?” Exploring intersectionalities, the book also examines areas of research that could help enhance the discourse on disaster management from policy and practice perspectives, revisiting conventional event-centric approaches, which are the basis for most writings on the subject. Several case studies and comparative analyses reflect a critical reading of research and practice concerning disasters and their management. The book offers valuable insights into various subjects including the challenge of establishing inter- and multi-disciplinary teams within the academia involved in disaster studies, and sociological and anthropological readings of post-disaster memoryscapes. Each of the contributors has an enduring interest in disaster studies, thus enriching the book immensely. This book will be of interest to all the students and scholars of disaster studies and disaster management, as well as to practitioners and policymakers.
Download or read book Language Choice in Postcolonial Law written by Richard Powell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses multilingual postcolonial common law, focusing on Malaysia’s efforts to shift the language of law from English to Malay, and weighing the pros and cons of planned language shift as a solution to language-based disadvantage before the law in jurisdictions where the majority of citizens lack proficiency in the traditional legal medium. Through analysis of legislation and policy documents, interviews with lawyers, law students and law lecturers, and observations of court proceedings and law lectures, the book reflects on what is entailed in changing the language of the law. It reviews the implications of societal bilingualism for postcolonial justice systems, and raises an important question for language planners to consider: if the language of the law is changed, what else about the law changes?
