Book Synopsis Coalition Government Penal Policy 2010–2015 by : David Skinns
Download or read book Coalition Government Penal Policy 2010–2015 written by David Skinns and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how the overall impact of the penal policy agenda of the Coalition Government 2010-2015 has not led to the intended 'rehabilitation revolution', but austerity, outsourcing and punishment, designated here as 'punitive managerialism'. divThe policy of austerity has led to significant budget cuts in legal aid and court services which threaten justice. It has also led to staffing reductions and overcrowding in the prison system which threaten order and have undermined more positive work with prisoners. The outsourcing of prison and community-based offender services is based on untried method with uncertain results. The shift in orientation towards punishment is regrettable because it is essentially negative. The book notes that this move to punitive managerialism is located in the broader trend towards neo-liberalism. It concludes by attempting to articulate the parameters of an affordable and emotionally satisfying yet humane and rational penal policy.>
Book Synopsis The Politics of Judicial Independence in the UK's Changing Constitution by : Graham Gee
Download or read book The Politics of Judicial Independence in the UK's Changing Constitution written by Graham Gee and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judicial independence is generally understood as requiring that judges must be insulated from political life. The central claim of this work is that far from standing apart from the political realm, judicial independence is a product of it. It is defined and protected through interactions between judges and politicians. In short, judicial independence is a political achievement. This is the main conclusion of a three-year research project on the major changes introduced by the Constitutional Reform Act 2005, and the consequences for judicial independence and accountability. The authors interviewed over 150 judges, politicians, civil servants and practitioners to understand the day-to-day processes of negotiation and interaction between politicians and judges. They conclude that the greatest threat to judicial independence in future may lie not from politicians actively seeking to undermine the courts, but rather from their increasing disengagement from the justice system and the judiciary.
Book Synopsis Minuistry of Justice: Court Fees: Proposals for Reform - Cm. 8751 by : Great Britain: Ministry of Justice
Download or read book Minuistry of Justice: Court Fees: Proposals for Reform - Cm. 8751 written by Great Britain: Ministry of Justice and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes to the fees charged for using civil courts will mean hard-working taxpayers will no longer be left footing so much of the bill for operating them. At present around £100m of running costs have to be found from general taxes each year. Under the new proposals put out for consultation, the fees for civil courts (not criminal courts) will be adjusted to address the shortfall. The proposals include: Scrapping the £75 application fee for domestic violence injunctions; Increasing the fees for cases involving claims for money (for example, a claim for compensation) on a sliding scale, with a maximum fee of £1,870 - and considering moving in future to a system where the fee is calculated as a percentage of the amount under dispute in the court case; Introducing a percentage-based system for commercial proceedings (disputes whether a contract has been fulfilled) as well as charging a daily rate for the time they spend in court; Introducing a standard fee of £270 for civil cases which are not about claims for money (applying for someone to be declared insolvent or to repossess property for example) - instead of the current mixture of fees. Fees would stay the same for cases involving sensitive family issues including child contact, divorce financial disputes and adoption applications - as well as a reduction in the fee for local authorities to apply to take a child into care. People who cannot afford court fees do not have to pay - they can apply for waivers using the means-tested remissions system

Book Synopsis National Audit Office - Criminal Justice System: Confiscation Orders - HC 738 by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book National Audit Office - Criminal Justice System: Confiscation Orders - HC 738 written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Government has no overall coherent strategy for confiscation orders and this fundamentally undermines the process for confiscating assets. In 2012-13, 673,000 offenders were convicted of a crime, many of which had a financial element, yet only 6,400 confiscation orders were set. The annual amount of fraud perpetrated by criminals in England and Wales has been estimated by the National Fraud Authority as some £52 billion. On this basis, it has been further estimated that, out of every £100 generated by the criminal economy, £99.65 was kept by the perpetrators. Without the government knowing what constitutes the overall success of its policy, the bodies involved have no way of knowing which criminals or court cases should be prioritized for confiscation activity. Action was not taken early enough in many cases and this, together with out-of-date ICT systems, data errors and poor joint working, hampers the efficiency and effectiveness of enforcing confiscation orders. Throughout the criminal justice system, there is insufficient awareness of the proceeds of crime and its potential impact. Confiscation orders have a low profile within law enforcement agencies, with low awareness of financial legislation outside specialist teams. This results in many cases not being considered for confiscation. Owing to a lack of data and agreed success criteria, it is impossible to make meaningful cost-benefit assessments of the enforcement of different orders. Where confiscation orders are made and not paid, the main sanctions do not work. The Courts and Tribunals Service found that in 2012, only two per cent of offenders paid in full once the sentence was imposed.

Book Synopsis Conservative Government Penal Policy 2015-2021 by : Christopher David Skinns
Download or read book Conservative Government Penal Policy 2015-2021 written by Christopher David Skinns and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book interrogates Conservative government penal policy for adult and young adult offenders in England and Wales between 2015 and 2021. Government penal policy is shown to have been often ineffective and costly, and to have revived efforts to push the system towards a disastrous combination of austerity, outsourcing and punishment that has exacerbated the penal crisis. This investigation has meant touching on topical debates dealing with the impact of resource scarcity on offenders' experiences of the penal system, the impact of an increasing emphasis on punishment on offenders’ sense of justice and fairness, the balance struck between infection control and offender welfare during the government handling of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and why successive Conservative governments have intransigently pursued a penal policy that has proved crisis-exacerbating. The overall conclusion reached is that penal policy is too important to be left to governments alone and needs to be recalibrated by a one-off inquiry, complemented by an on-going advisory body capable of requiring governments to ‘explain or change’. The book is distinctive in that it provides a critical review of penal policy change, whist combining this with insights derived from the sociological analysis of penal trends.
Book Synopsis The Under-Representation of Black and Minority Ethnic Educators in Education by : Chris Guy Vieler-Porter
Download or read book The Under-Representation of Black and Minority Ethnic Educators in Education written by Chris Guy Vieler-Porter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Under-Representation of Black and Minority Ethnic Educators in Education evidences that discrimination at an individual, institutional and structural level is still experienced in the leadership of children’s learning. The analysis evaluates the extent to which under-representation is a result of chance, coincidence or design. Based on original research using a mixed-methods approach, and drawing on Critical Race Theory this book examines the under-representation of Black and minority ethnic (BAME) educators in education. It identifies over 40 separate codes emerging from interviews with BAME leaders in children’s learning. These codes include surveillance, isolation, awareness of their position, the need to be better, professional development, the complexity of racism and the difficulties of talking about racism. The book contributes to educational leadership in questioning the extent to which equitable outcomes can be delivered when the education service is itself a site and source of inequality and discrimination. It brings to front the suppressed narratives of under-representation of people of colour and offers insights based on comprehensive data collection. This book will be of great interest for academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the fields of education management and leadership, Critical Race Theory, and the Sociology of Education.

This book was released on 2012-08-18 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the five years since the Ministry of Justice was created, it has made improvements to its structure and performance and is now a more integrated Department. However, the Ministry is still too much in thrall to the prison service: better integrated offender management would enable the Ministry to make the financial savings demanded of it but also provide a more effective service to clients, users and the wider public, and in particular to achieve its key objective to reduce re-offending. The Ministry has been subject to past criticism for poor financial management - missing the Treasury's deadline for the laying of accounts three years running, woeful inefficiency in the administration of legal aid and too much focus on policy at the expense of delivery. Following an in-depth investigation into all aspects of the Department's work, the Committee concluded that the Ministry has got a grip of the situation and is justifying the rationale for its creation. However, the MPs believe the Department could undergo further restructuring to create a single delivery body. Additionally, the current structure of the National Offender Management Service (NOMS), which continues to be driven by prison priorities, produces difficulties in reducing re-offending. The Committee also makes a number of further recommendations to improve how the Department functions
