Download or read book House of Lords - Economic Affairs Committee: The Draft Finance Bill 2014 - HL 146 written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Select Committee on Economic Affairs and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government proposes introducing legislative tests to determine if an Limited Liability Partnership member is an employee or truly a partner. Failing these tests would make the member liable for income tax and National Insurance Contributions (NIC) as an employee and the LLP would pay employer NICs. Nearly all the evidence received by the Committee was that the legislative tests failed to achieve the policy objective. Many suggested that existing case law could be used instead. A delay in implementation until April 2015 would allow for further consultation to target the legislation better and for businesses to adapt to the changes. The Committee also raised concerns that the proposed changes to tax arrangements for LLPs would apply only to UK registered LLPs and not those conducting business here but formed outside the UK. The Committee is content in principle with proposed measures to counter shifting of profit to corporate members of partnerships to minimise tax liability and highlights the extent of this practice in the Alternative Investment Fund Management (AIFM) Sector. But the Committee wants to see the legislation drafted more precisely. And it is concerned that the Government's revised estimates of the tax yield from these measures, and particularly the additional £1.92bn in 2015-2019 from the AIFM sector, show that the Government's original estimates of tax yield were very wide of the mark.

Book Synopsis Contingencies, Resilience and Legal Constitutionalism by : Clive Walker
Download or read book Contingencies, Resilience and Legal Constitutionalism written by Clive Walker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contingency planning and resilience are of prime importance to the late modern risk society, with implications for law and for governance arrangements. Our risk society continues to seek ever more complex and detailed risk mitigation responses by law, including the UK’s Civil Contingencies Act 2004 and the US Homeland Security Act 2002, which respond to counter-terrorism, natural catastrophes, and other risks. This book seeks to analyse and criticise the legal developments in contingencies and resilience on a comparative basis, which engages with not only law and constitutionalism but also political theory and policy, including relations between public and private, national and local, and civil and military. Two transcending themes are of interest. One is institutional or structural – what bodies and power relations should we establish in a late modern world where Critical National Infrastructure is mainly held in private hands? The second is dynamic and concerns the grant of powers and arrangements for live responses. Both aspects are subjected to a strong critical stance based in 'constitutionalism', which demands state legitimacy even in extreme situations by the observance of legality, effectiveness, accountability, and individual rights. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Human Rights.

Download or read book Voting Eligibility (prisoners) Draft Bill written by Great Britain: Ministry of Justice and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-11-22 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Court of Human Rights has described the UK's current blanket ban on prisoner voting as 'general, automatic and indiscriminate' and found it to be in breach of article 3 of protocol 1 of the European Convention on Human Rights. The ECHR requires the UK to bring forward legislative proposals to amend our current legislation to be compliant with the Convention. The Government is putting forward three options to a Committee of both Houses for full Parliamentary scrutiny. The three options are: a ban for prisoners sentenced to 4 years or more; a ban for prisoners sentenced to more than 6 months; a continued ban for all convicted prisoners. When the Joint Committee has finished its scrutiny the Government will reflect on its recommendations it will continue the legislative process by introducing a Bill.

Book Synopsis Common Law Constitutional Rights by : Mark Elliott
Download or read book Common Law Constitutional Rights written by Mark Elliott and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-04-16 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a developing body of legal reasoning in the United Kingdom Supreme Court in which members of the senior judiciary have asserted the primary role of common law constitutional rights and critiqued legal arguments based first and foremost on the Human Rights Act 1998. Their calls for a shift in legal reasoning have created a sense amongst both scholars and the judiciary that something significant is happening. Yet despite renewed academic and judicial interest we have limited insight into what common law constitutional rights we have, how they work and what they offer. This book is the first collection of its kind to systematically explore both the content and role of individual common law constitutional rights alongside the constitutional significance and broader implications of these developments. It therefore contributes not only to our understanding of what the common law might be capable of offering in terms of the protection of rights, but also to our understanding of the nature of the constitutional order of which such rights are an integral part.
Book Synopsis A Question Of Trust by : David Anderson
Download or read book A Question Of Trust written by David Anderson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [This convenience copy of the official report by the UK Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, made available under OGLv3 on a cost-only basis] Modern communications networks can be used by the unscrupulous for purposes ranging from cyber-attack, terrorism and espionage to fraud, kidnap and child sexual exploitation. A successful response to these threats depends on entrusting public bodies with the powers they need to identify and follow suspects in a borderless online world. But trust requires verification. Each intrusive power must be shown to be necessary, clearly spelled out in law, limited in accordance with international human rights standards and subject to demanding and visible safeguards. The current law is fragmented, obscure, under constant challenge and variable in the protections that it affords the innocent. It is time for a clean slate. This Report aims to help Parliament achieve a world-class framework for the regulation of these strong and vital powers.

Book Synopsis Global Waves of Debt by : M. Ayhan Kose
Download or read book Global Waves of Debt written by M. Ayhan Kose and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy has experienced four waves of rapid debt accumulation over the past 50 years. The first three debt waves ended with financial crises in many emerging market and developing economies. During the current wave, which started in 2010, the increase in debt in these economies has already been larger, faster, and broader-based than in the previous three waves. Current low interest rates mitigate some of the risks associated with high debt. However, emerging market and developing economies are also confronted by weak growth prospects, mounting vulnerabilities, and elevated global risks. A menu of policy options is available to reduce the likelihood that the current debt wave will end in crisis and, if crises do take place, will alleviate their impact.
Book Synopsis Scotland Analysis by : Great Britain: Scotland Office
Download or read book Scotland Analysis written by Great Britain: Scotland Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UK Government is undertaking a major cross-government programme of analysis prior to the referendum on Scottish independence in 2014. The aim is to provide a comprehensive and detailed analysis of Scotland's place in the UK. This paper, the first of a series to be published in 2013 and 2014, examines the UK's constitutional set-up and the legal implications of independence. The UK Government is convinced that the current devolution offers the best for Scotland: the Scottish Parliament and Government are empowered to take decisions on a range of domestic policy areas - such as health, education, policing - while Scotland continues to benefit from decisions made for the UK as a whole - defence and security, foreign representation, economic affairs. Independence is very different to devolution. Based on independent expert opinion (published as Annex A), the paper concludes that if there were to be a vote in favour of leaving the UK, Scotland would become an entirely new state whilst the remainder of the UK would continue as before, retaining the rights and obligations of the UK as it currently stands. Any separation would have to be negotiated between both governments. Legal and practical implications of independence, both at home and abroad, are addressed. An independent Scotland would have to apply to and/or negotiate to become a member of whichever international organisations it wished to join, including the EU and NATO. Scotland would also have to work through its positions on thousands of international treaties to which the UK is currently party.

Book Synopsis The Scottish Political System Since Devolution by : Paul Cairney
Download or read book The Scottish Political System Since Devolution written by Paul Cairney and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2012-01-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a narrative of Scottish politics since devolution in 1999. It compares eight years of coalition government under Scottish Labour and the Scottish Liberal Democrats with four years of Scottish National Party minority government. It outlines the relative effect of each government on Scottish politics and public policy in various contexts, including: high expectations for ‘new politics' that were never fully realised; the influence of, and reactions from, the media and public; the role of political parties; the Scottish Government's relations with the UK Government, EU institutions, local government, quasi-governmental and non-governmental actors; and, the finance available to fund policy initiatives. It then considers how far Scotland has travelled on the road to constitutional change, comparing the original devolved framework with calls for independence or a new devolution settlement. The book draws heavily on information produced since 1999 by the Scottish Devolution Monitoring project (which forms one part of the devolution monitoring project led by the Constitution Unit, UCL) and is supplemented by new research on public policy, minority government, intergovernmental relations and constitutional change.
Book Synopsis House of Lords reform draft bill by : Great Britain: Deputy Prime Minister's Office
Download or read book House of Lords reform draft bill written by Great Britain: Deputy Prime Minister's Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-05-17 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a draft Bill and white paper on proposals to change the House of Lords into a more democratically elected second chamber. A cross-party Committee met seven times from June to December 2010 and considered all reform issues related to the House of Lords. Agreement was reached on a large number of issues but differences in opinion remain on the size of the elected element and the type of electoral system. The Government now wants to take the discussion forward to a debate on the detail. Proposals include an 80 percent elected House of Lords but a wholly elected House of Lords has not been ruled out. The Draft Bill sets out elections using the Single Transferable Vote system but it is recognised that a case can be made for other proportional systems too. Other proposals, name, size, functions, powers and term length are some of several issues discussed.

Book Synopsis Proposals for the Devolution of Further Powers to Scotland by : The Stationery Office
Download or read book Proposals for the Devolution of Further Powers to Scotland written by The Stationery Office and published by Stationery Office Books (TSO). This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Smith Commission's recommendations for the further devolution of powers to Scotland would significantly change Scotland's devolution settlement, adding greater complexity to the relationship between the UK and Scottish Governments. This report considers the Government's proposals for implementing the Smith Commission's recommendations, set out in the Command Paper "Scotland in the United Kingdom: An enduring settlement". The Committee considers the process by which these proposals were produced, and then examines their implications for the constitution of the UK as a whole. The Smith Commission was given only two months to produce its recommendations, and took less than four weeks to produce its proposals once the closing date for public submissions was reached on 31 October 2014. This is not to criticise Lord Smith of Kelvin, nor the members of the Smith Commission, who worked effectively to a tight timetable. Its recommendations are, however, necessarily the result of a short process, with minimal time for consultation and for engagement with the UK and Scottish parliaments. Yet the leaders of the three main UK-wide political parties agreed to implement the recommendations of the Smith Commission in advance of its first meeting. The Committee are deeply concerned that this agreement has pre-empted any possibility of meaningful consultation and discussion on the merits of the proposals with either the Scottish or UK Parliament, or indeed with citizens and civil society both in Scotland and across the UK. In particular, it restricts the capacity of the UK Parliament to contribute to the development of these proposals. Nor does the Smith Commission process meet the standards expected for the production of proposals for significant constitutional change.
