This book was released on 2006-01-30 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee's report examines how the UK Parliament can best hold the Government to account for the foreign policy of the European Union, known as the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). As the European Parliament has principally only an advisory role in scrutinising CFSP decisions, national parliaments therefore have a key role to play in ensuring that any foreign policy actions are taken in an open and transparent manner. The Committee welcomes the increased commitment to the scrutiny process shown by the FCO recently and hopes the same culture of scrutiny will be adopted by the MoD. The report makes recommendations including the need for improved procedures for the deposit of documents; early warning of important new initiatives and proposed actions; and the deposit of significant non-legislative documents for scrutiny.

Book Synopsis Executive Measures, Terrorism and National Security by : Professor David Bonner
Download or read book Executive Measures, Terrorism and National Security written by Professor David Bonner and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Bonner presents an historical and contemporary legal analysis of UK governmental use of executive measures, rather than criminal process, to deal with national security threats. The work examines measures of internment, deportation and restriction on movement deployed in the UK and (along with the imposition of collective punishment) also in three emergencies forming part of its withdrawal from colonial empire: Cyprus, Kenya and Malaya. These situations, along with that of Northern Ireland, are used to probe the strengths and weaknesses of ECHR supervision. It is argued that a new human rights era ushered in by a more confident Court of Human Rights and a more confident national judiciary armed with the HRA 1998, has moved us towards greater judicial scrutiny of the application of these measures - a move away from unfettered and unreviewable executive discretion.
Book Synopsis Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs by : Great Britain. National Audit Office
Download or read book Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs written by Great Britain. National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2009 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and its Animal Health agency successfully contained limited outbreaks of Avian Influenza and Foot and Mouth Disease in 2007. The estimated £33 million expenditure by Animal Health in 2007-08 on dealing with these exotic disease outbreaks has represented good value for money when compared to the economic costs of these diseases becoming more widespread. The control of some of the more serious endemic diseases has been managed less successfully. Good progress has been made with the control of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), Scrapie and Salmonella, but Bovine Tuberculosis has continued to spread. In 2007-08, tackling Bovine Tuberculosis accounted for 39 per cent of Animal Health's total expenditure. Herd restrictions are applied immediately when disease is identified, but compliance with the requirements for routine testing to detect disease is not rigorously enforced. There are no national standards on farm biosecurity to minimise the risk of diseases spreading. The Department, Animal Health and other inspection bodies, such as local authorities, do not systematically collect and share information about biosecurity risks. Beekeepers have reported unusually high losses of honeybees in recent years and, now that the Varroa parasite is endemic, honeybee colonies are more vulnerable to other diseases. Controlling Varroa and monitoring of other diseases is hampered by the limited inspections of colonies carried out by the Department's National Bee Unit. An estimated 20,000 beekeepers are not known to the Unit's inspectors and are less likely to notify the Department of any diseases.

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.

Book Synopsis Road Policing and Technology by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Transport Committee
Download or read book Road Policing and Technology written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Transport Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-10-31 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, traffic collisions killed 3,201 people with almost 29,000 seriously injured on British roads. Although the level of road crash fatalities and injuries has fallen over successive decades and Britain has one of the safest road environments in the world, the numbers still remain far too high and many of these casualties might have been avoided if there was a higher level of compliance with traffic law. The Committee's report examines the road casualty problem, focusing on the role of roads policing and the contribution which enforcement can make to casualty reduction. It considers how technology is influencing the policing and enforcement of particular offences, relating to speeding, drink and drug driving, driving whilst using a mobile phone and driving while impaired by fatigue. The report finds that, despite progress made by the Department for Transport against its 2010 casualty reduction targets, the Home Office has continued to deny traffic law enforcement issues the priority it requires and must explicitly adopt the targets as a key part of its future national policing plans. Investment and research into new technological equipment, such as roadside breath testing equipment and time-distance cameras, and a higher profile and more visible traffic enforcement effort would bring important casualty reductions. However, the efficiencies which technology can bring should not be seen as a opportunity to cut the number of roads police officers, as technology alone cannot carry out the multitude of functions undertaken by roads police officers.

Book Synopsis Allergy by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Science and Technology Committee

This book was released on 2007-09-26 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allergy in the United Kingdom has now reached epidemic proportions. In the UK the incidence of common allergic diseases has trebled in the last twenty years to become one of the highest in the world. Treatment of allergies is a significant cost to the National Health Service. Allergies can have a detrimental impact upon the education of children at school or the performance of adults at work. There is a severe shortage of allergy specialists in the United Kingdom. Problems with data collection mean that statistics are imprecise, and a significant proportion of general practitioners are unable to diagnose and manage allergic disorders, and have nowhere to refer patients with complex allergies. The report recommends that allergy centres led by a full-time allergist should be developed, where various specialists come together to diagnose and manage patients with complex allergic disorders. These allergy centres should be a source of education and training for doctors, nurses and other healthcare workers at every grade. They should also advance research, enabling effective treatments to be developed, and should provide the clinical database required for epidemiological studies. Clinicians within the allergy centre should work together with local schools, employers, charities and others to educate the general public, and particularly patients and their families, on allergy matters. Other recommendations include: maintaining clinical surveillance systems to monitor allergic disease; calling for further research into the ways in which the indoor environment influences allergy development; reviewing how children with hayfever are supported throughout the examination system; assessing the training that teachers receive in dealing with allergic emergencies; assisting individuals with occupational allergies to return to work; amending food labelling legislation to specify the amount of allergens contained within products; analysing the costs and benefits of immunotherapy treatment; and withdrawing advice which recommends peanut avoidance for pregnant women.
Book Synopsis Impact Assessment in EU Lawmaking by : Anne C. M. Meuwese
Download or read book Impact Assessment in EU Lawmaking written by Anne C. M. Meuwese and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent constitutional thinking has directed its attention to the profound impact of 'soft' norms on the way legislation is made. This book identifies the European Union's impact assessment regime as a source of these norms. In 2002 the European Commission - later followed by the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers - committed to performing rigorous assessment of the economic, social and environmental impacts of policy options before adopting (legislative) proposals. Applying a 'constitutional lens' to this 'regulatory' topic, Anne Meuwese examines both the details and the framework of IA in EU lawmaking to date, drawing attention to its strengths, its contradictions, and its power to enhance the deliberative quality of legislative debates. Integrating the perspectives of political scientists and economists with the concerns of legal scholars and practitioners, Dr Meuwese describes and interrelates such aspects of the subject as the following: the potential role of impact assessment as a catalyst of legal principles, by emphasising or overriding norms that govern both the procedural and the substantive aspects of the EU legislative process; the 'constitutional tasks' of impact assessment as applied to European legislative proposals, especially relating to subsidiarity, proportionality, and the precautionary principle; the formal and informal extension of the scope of impact assessment beyond the co-decision procedure; the question whether impact assessment crosses the line between informing the legislator and fettering legislative discretion. In the course of her analysis Dr Meuwese develops models for possible usages of IA in EU lawmaking, analyses the implementation of impact assessment processes in the European Commission, the European Parliament and the Council as well as the roles of relevant 'co-actors', and offers results of empirical research in the forms of a survey of EU legislative practice and in-depth case studies of four EU legislative dossiers.

The Committee distils from its experience a number of suggestions for consideration by its successor committee and recommendations addressed to the Government, in order to enhance the integration of human rights considerations into the overall policy and legislative process. Chapter 2 explains the background to the Committee's establishment. Chapter 3 covers the legislative scrutiny performed by the Committee. The monitoring of the implementation of the Human Rights Act is the subject of chapter 4, while chapter 5 covers work in relation to institutional support for human rights within the UK. The inquiries into the international treaties to which the UK is a party are dealt with in chapter 6, including the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the International Covenant on Economic Social and Cultural Rights, and the Convention on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The final chapter describes the work undertaken on monitoring action taken by the Government in response to incompatibilities with Convention rights, arising from Strasbourg judgments and declarations of incompatibility by UK courts.

Download or read book The Battle for Authority in European Defence Cooperation written by Felix Biermann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-14 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses one of the most profound transformations in international governance: the proliferation of regime complexity. Regime complexes can be found wherever state interests clash. Thus, even in one of the most constitutionalized of institutional environments, the European Union (EU), regime complexity features prominently – especially in European defence cooperation, where states have created competing institutions overlapping in their mandates to organize armaments cooperation or defence planning. The tense relationship between the institutions of the EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) and those of NATO is well-known. Yet inter-institutional conflict is not limited to this dichotomy. It extends to institutions beyond these two frameworks, such as those of the former Western European Union and regional defence cooperation frameworks such as the Nordic Defence Cooperation (NORDEFCO), or OCCAR – a minilateral armaments agency. All these institutions have partially overlapping membership structures and mandates and therefore rival authority claims in the field of European defence. This book uncovers the hidden regularities of the ongoing battle for institutional authority among EU member states.

European Union Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2009 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report looking at crisis management in the EU, the Committee call for a closer working relationship between the EU Monitoring and Information Centre (MIC) and NATO's Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response and Coordination Centre (EADRCC). The role of the two bodies is similar, but there is practically no contact between them. It would be in the interests of the EU, NATO and the members of both organisations to support and complement each other's work rather than duplicating it. In the event of a serious natural or man-made disaster the failure of the two bodies to cooperate could have serious consequences. The Committee also raise concerns that NATO prevents officials of the EU Joint Situation Centre (SitCen) from taking part in NATO training courses due to concerns about security clearance. The Committee state that the level of security clearance required by NATO should be the same for officials of national Governments and of the European Union. The Committee also call on the Government to begin working with the EU to ensure a full EU contribution to the security preparations in place at the 2012 Olympic site and in surrounding London boroughs. Finally the report criticises the failure of the UK to participate fully in international exercises designed to test preparedness for Chemical, Biological, Radiological or Nuclear (CBRN) attacks. The UK has been involved to some extent in only 11 of 31 EU or NATO CBRN exercises between 2000 and 2008; it has played a full part by deploying teams in none of the NATO exercises, and only one of the EU exercises.
