Book excerpt: 'A Practical Guide to Periodical Payment Orders in Personal Injury Cases in Scotland' is geared towards practitioners in Scotland who deal with personal injury cases involving future pecuniary losses. This is not restricted to practitioners who deal with serious injury cases in the traditional sense. The Damages (Investment Returns and Periodical Payments) (Scotland) Act 2019 was enacted in part on 1 July 2019. Part 2 of this Act deals with the use of periodical payments in personal injury cases and the relevant rules of court are awaited. They are however expected to be published in the near future. Although, currently, periodical payment orders can be agreed extra-judicially in cases where both parties consent to them, once part 2 of the Act comes into force, practitioners will be under an obligation to provide advice in respect of their applicability in cases with future pecuniary losses. The court will also have the power to impose a periodical payment order even if parties do not consent to it but the individual circumstances of each case will be taken into account. This book aims to provide an introduction to practitioners as to how to approach these cases and the practical factors that must be considered. It will provide background and context to periodical payment orders, their pros and cons and the practical steps that must be taken when they are being put in place.

Book Synopsis Best Practice Guidelines for Great Ape Tourism by : Elizabeth J. Macfie
Download or read book Best Practice Guidelines for Great Ape Tourism written by Elizabeth J. Macfie and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2010 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Executive summary: Tourism is often proposed 1) as a strategy to fund conservation efforts to protect great apes and their habitats, 2) as a way for local communities to participate in, and benefit from, conservation activities on behalf of great apes, or 3) as a business. A few very successful sites point to the considerable potential of conservation-based great ape tourism, but it will not be possible to replicate this success everywhere. The number of significant risks to great apes that can arise from tourism reqire a cautious approach. If great ape tourism is not based on sound conservation principles right from the start, the odds are that economic objectives will take precedence, the consequences of which in all likelihood would be damaging to the well-being and eventual survival of the apes, and detrimental to the continued preservation of their habitat. All great ape species and subspecies are classified as Endangered or Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (IUCN 2010), therefore it is imperative that great ape tourism adhere to the best practice guidelines in this document. The guiding principles of best practice in great ape tourism are: Tourism is not a panacea for great ape conservation or revenue generation; Tourism can enhance long-term support for the conservation of great apes and their habitat; Conservation comes first--it must be the primary goal at any great ape site and tourism can be a tool to help fund it; Great ape tourism should only be developed if the anticipated conservation benefits, as identified in impact studies, significantly outweigh the risks; Enhanced conservation investment and action at great ape tourism sites must be sustained in perpetuity; Great ape tourism management must be based on sound and objective science; Benefits and profit for communities adjacent to great ape habitat should be maximised; Profit to private sector partners and others who earn income associated with tourism is also important, but should not be the driving force for great ape tourism development or expansion; Comprehensive understanding of potential impacts must guide tourism development. positive impacts from tourism must be maximised and negative impacts must be avoided or, if inevitable, better understood and mitigated. The ultimate success or failure of great ape tourism can lie in variables that may not be obvious to policymakers who base their decisions primarily on earning revenue for struggling conservation programmes. However, a number of biological, geographical, economic and global factors can affect a site so as to render ape tourism ill-advised or unsustainable. This can be due, for example, to the failure of the tourism market for a particular site to provide revenue sufficient to cover the development and operating costs, or it can result from failure to protect the target great apes from the large number of significant negative aspects inherent in tourism. Either of these failures will have serious consequences for the great ape population. Once apes are habituated to human observers, they are at increased risk from poaching and other forms of conflict with humans. They must be protected in perpetuity even if tourism fails or ceases for any reason. Great ape tourism should not be developed without conducting critical feasibility analyses to ensure there is sufficient potential for success. Strict attention must be paid to the design of the enterprise, its implementation and continual management capacity in a manner that avoids, or at least minimises, the negative impacts of tourism on local communities and on the apes themselves. Monitoring programmes to track costs and impacts, as well as benefits, [is] essential to inform management on how to optimise tourism for conservation benefits. These guidelines have been developed for both existing and potential great ape tourism sites that wish to improve the degree to which their programme constributes to the conservation rather than the exploitation of great apes.
