Download or read book Counter terrorism policy and human rights ninth report written by Great Britain: Parliament: Joint Committee on Human Rights and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008-02-25 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 30th January 2008 the Home Secretary laid before both Houses of Parliament a draft Order to renew the control order legislation, the third annual extension of the control order regime. The Government takes the view that no amendments to the legal framework are necessary. The Committee disagrees and considers it imperative for the Government to amend counter-terrorism laws where experience has shown them to lead to breaches of human rights. Amongst their recommendations are: ensurance of timely availability of Lord Carlile's annual report on the control orders; the need to strengthen the intrusive powers contained in the control orders; modification of the Prevention of Terrorism Act to impose a maximum daily limit 12 hours on the curfew which can be imposed; review of the fairness of the special advocate procedure and a need to take into account the Committee's own earlier recommendations concerning this; maintaining the preferred policy of priority of prosecution; and greater transparency of decisions that prosecution is not possible.

Download or read book Monitoring the Government s response to court judgments finding breaches of human rights written by Great Britain: Parliament: Joint Committee on Human Rights and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-06-28 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the UK's institutional arrangements for protecting human rights, both Parliament and the judiciary have a central role. When the courts give a judgement finding that a law, policy or practice is in breach of human rights, it is for Parliament to scrutinise the adequacy of the Government's response and in some cases decide if there needs to be a change in law. An important part of the role of the Committee is to help Parliament in this function. This report brings together all their monitoring work in relation to both judgements of the European Court of Human Rights and declarations of incompatibility given by UK courts under the Human Rights Act.
Download or read book Scrutiny of Mental Health Legislation written by Great Britain. Parliament. Joint Committee on Human Rights and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this Report, the Joint Committee on Human Rights considers: the draft Mental Capacity Act 2005 Code of Practice; draft guidance on Bournewood patients (people who lack capacity to consent to the arrangements made for their care, where those arrangements amount to a deprivation of liberty); and the Government's approach to the Council of Europe Recommendation (2004/10) on the protection of the human rights and dignity of persons with mental disorder. This paper builds on two previous reports published by the Committee on the Mental Health Bill during its passage through Parliament in 2006-07 ('Legislative Scrutiny: Seventh Progress Report (HL 112 / HC 555)', ISBN 9780104010754; and 'Legislative Scrutiny: Mental Health Bill (HL 40 / HC 288)', ISBN 9780104010136), both of which are available to purchase below.

Download or read book The meaning of public authority under the Human Rights Act written by Great Britain: Parliament: Joint Committee on Human Rights and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-03-28 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Section 6 of the Human Rights Act (HRA) makes it unlawful for public authorities to act in breach of Convention rights. UK courts have adopted a restrictive interpretation of the meaning of public authority, potentially depriving numerous, often vulnerable people, from the human rights protection afforded by the HRA. There has been little evidence of progress since the previous report on this matter (HL 39/HC 382, 7th report session 2003-4, ISBN 9780104004173). Chapter 2 examines developments in case-law since 2004 and the Committee considers the Government's 2005 guidance on contracting for services in the light of the Human Rights Act takes a very negative approach to the difficulties facing the use of contracts to secure better the protection of human rights, lacks accessibility and is difficult to understand, and has little or no influence on the procurement policies of local authorities. In Chapter 3, the Committee considers the case for further action to overcome the problems arising from a narrow interpretation of public authority. It concludes that the practical implications of the current case law are such that some service users are deprived of a right to an effective remedy for any violation of their Convention rights. The Committee has not seen any convincing evidence that providers would leave the public services market if they were subject to the duty to act compatibly with Convention rights, despite the Government's premature and unsupported concerns about market flight. In Chapter 4 the Committee considers steps which could be taken to resolve the problems identified, including use of legislation to clarify the meaning of public authority in section 6 HRA through a separate, supplementary and interpretative statute.

This book was released on 2008-03-14 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report from the Joint Committee of Human Rights (HLP 72/HCP 132, ISBN 9780104012468) examines issues surrounding data protection and human rights, particularly in relation to the recent loss of data by government departments. Personal data should be handled in accordance with the Data Protection Act (PGA 1998 chp. 29, ISBN 9780105429982), whilst the Human Rights Act (PGA 1998 chp. 42, ISBN 9780105442981) safeguards the right to respect personal information. The Committee has expressed concern about the recent lapses in the protection of data in particular where the sharing of information takes place, and that such sharing needs to be justifiable and appropriate. The Committee fundamentally disagrees with the Government's approach about data protection and does not agree that the two Acts offer sufficient protection, and that further primary legislation is needed to make clear the importance of data protection inside and outside government. The Committee also states that the recent lapses are indicative of a symptomatic failure within government to safeguard personal data and that human rights are far from being a mainstream consideration in Government department's. The Committee states that Government needs to set out proposals to rectify this situation. The Committee supports the extension of the Information Commissioner's powers to defend human rights, but expresses regret that it has taken the loss of personal data affecting 25 million people for the Government to take the issue of personal data more seriously.

Download or read book Democracy in Turkey written by Ali Resul Usul and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-13 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the impact of European political conditionality on the process of democratization in Turkey over a twenty year period. Employing theoretical and conceptual approaches to the issue of EU conditionality, the author compares the case of Turkey to that of other European nations. Arguing that Turkey became vulnerable to the European conditionality when it applied for membership in 1987, he shows how the political reforms demanded of Turkey were not fully carried out as the EU had not in essence accepted Turkey as an official candidate during this period. The EU has started to exert real ‘active leverage’ since Turkey was declared an official candidate in 1999, and the author explores how these conditions have exerted a positive influence on democratic consolidation in Turkey. However, its effectiveness in this regard has diminished to a significant extent due to a number of problems that have continued to remain central in EU-Turkey relations. This comprehensive analysis of Turkey-EU political relations and democratization places the case of Turkey within an international context. As such, it will be of interest not only to those studying Turkish politics, government and democracy, but anyone working in the area of international relations and the EU.
