Book Synopsis Report on the Implementation of Law Commission Proposals by : Great Britain: Ministry of Justice
Download or read book Report on the Implementation of Law Commission Proposals written by Great Britain: Ministry of Justice and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second annual report to Parliament on the extent to which Law Commission proposals have been implemented by the Government. The Government's focus on dealing with the economic situation has meant that proposals not seen as requiring immediate action have been delayed. Two uncontroversial changes have proceeded under the new House of Lords procedure introduced by the Law Commission Act 2009, resulting in the Consumer Insurance (Disclosure and Representations) Act 2012 and the Trusts (Capital and Income) Bill. And the Commission's proposals regarding the forfeiture rule and the law of succession have also been implemented through the Estates of Deceased Persons (Forfeiture Rule and Law of Succession) Act 2011 which came into force on 1 February 2012. A total of 18 other proposals have not yet been implemented and the report details the situation of each, including plans for implementation. The Government has decided not to implement two proposals - intoxication and criminal liability, and the illegality defence - and explains its reasoning for those decisions.
Book Synopsis Annual Report 2008-09 by : Stationery Office (Great Britain)
Download or read book Annual Report 2008-09 written by Stationery Office (Great Britain) and published by Stationery Office/Tso. This book was released on 2009 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To date the Law Commission has produced 180 final reports recommending reforms. Of these 135 have been implemented either wholly or in part. 12 await a decision from the Government. While this is impressive, the speed of implementation has been a cause of concern. The first step to improve this was the amendment of the Law Commissions Act of 1965 to provide that the Chair of the Commission must be a judge of the High Court or of the Court of Appeal. The next significant development was the introduction of the Constitutional Renewal White Paper which brings forward proposals to place a statutory duty on the Lord Chancellor to report annually to Parliament on outstanding Law Commission recommendations. The Constitutional Renewal Bill has yet to be introduced. These and other changes; and reports and papers published during the year are outlined.
Book Synopsis The Work of the British Law Commissions by : Shona Wilson Stark
Download or read book The Work of the British Law Commissions written by Shona Wilson Stark and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law Commission (of England and Wales) and the Scottish Law Commission were both established in 1965 to promote the reform of the laws of their respective jurisdictions. Since then, they have each produced hundreds of reports across many areas of law. They are independent of government yet rely on governmental funding and governmental approval of their proposed projects. They also rely on both government and Parliament (and, occasionally, the courts or other bodies) to implement their proposals. This book examines the tension between independence and implementation and recommends how a balance can best be struck. It proposes how the Commissions should choose their projects given that their duties outweigh their resources, and how we should assess the success, or otherwise, of their output. Countries around the world have created law reform bodies in the Commissions' image. They may wish to reflect on the GB Commissions' responses to the changes and challenges they have faced to reappraise their own law reform machinery. Equally, the GB Commissions may seek inspiration from other commissions' experiences. The world the GB Commissions inhabit now is very different from when they were established. They have evolved to remain relevant in the face of devolution, the UK's changing relationship with the European Union, increasing pressure for accountability and decreasing funding. Further changes to secure the future of independent law reform are advanced in this book.

Book Synopsis Renting Homes in Wales by : Great Britain: Law Commission
Download or read book Renting Homes in Wales written by Great Britain: Law Commission and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report Renting Homes in Wales (Cm. 8578) updates the recommendations of the 2006 Law Commission report Renting Homes: The Final Report, for the purpose of an introduction of a bill by the Welsh Government. At the core of the recommendations is the creation of a simplified statutory framework which: (i) Reduces the number of available forms of rental occupation of residential property to two: the secure contract; and the standard contract. (ii) Provides model contracts which set out the basis on which occupiers occupy rented housing in clear terms. Whilst the Renting Homes recommendations were designed as far as possible to maintain the current balance of rights and responsibilities between landlords and occupiers, the development of the proposals inevitably involved some modifications to the status quo. This review highlights the most significant of these modifications and where these have proved controve

Book Synopsis Making land work by : Great Britain: Law Commission
Download or read book Making land work written by Great Britain: Law Commission and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-06-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report, the Law Commission makes recommendations to simplify, modernise and enhance the law of easements, covenants and profits á prendre. These rights are essential to the effective use of land and are relied upon by a significant proportion of property owners in England and Wales. Parts of the current law are ancient, contradictory and unfit for modern society. The report recommends reform where it is needed, while preserving those aspects of the law that function as they should. The recommendations would not affect the validity and enforceability of existing rights. The reforms would: make it possible for the benefit and burden of positive obligations to be enforced by and against subsequent owners; simplify and make clearer the rules relating to the acquisition of easements by prescription (or long use of land) and implication, as well as the termination of easements by abandonment; give greater flexibility to developers to establish the webs of rights and obligations that allow modern estates to function; facilitate the creation of easements that allow a substantial use of land by the benefiting owner (for example, rights to park a car); expand the jurisdiction of the Lands Chamber of the Upper Tribunal to allow for the discharge and modification of easements and profits created post-reform.
Book Synopsis The Law-Making Process by : Michael Zander
Download or read book The Law-Making Process written by Michael Zander and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a critical, in-depth analysis of the law-making process, this book has no equal. It deals with all the stages and forms of law-making: - the preparation of legislation; - its passage through Parliament; - statutory interpretation; - the operation of the rules of precedent in judicial decision-making; - the many facets of judicial law-making; - the machinery of law reform. The new eighth edition covers the operation of EU law in the UK after Brexit. It also covers pre-Brexit events such as the unprecedented legislation by backbench MPs to stop a No Deal Exit from the EU and the two great Supreme Court decisions over the triggering of Brexit and the prorogation of Parliament. The books draws on a wide range of sources including important new empirical research such as Lord Sumption's 2019 Reith lectures (Trials of the State – Law and the Decline of Politics) and the work of Sir Geoffrey Palmer, former Prime Minister and Justice Minister of New Zealand on The Law Reform Enterprise. There are new sections on the attempt to control the size of the House of Lords, on whether Parliament should have a role in the selection of senior judges and on the topical question whether decisions of the courts on constitutional questions are 'legal' or 'political'.
Book Synopsis Illegality after Patel v Mirza by : Sarah Green
Download or read book Illegality after Patel v Mirza written by Sarah Green and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Patel v Mirza [2016] UKSC 42, nine justices of the Supreme Court of England and Wales decided in favour of a restitutionary award in response to an unjust enrichment, despite the illegal transaction on which that enrichment was based. Whilst the result was reached unanimously, the reasoning could be said to have divided the Court. Lord Toulson, Lady Hale, Lord Kerr, Lord Wilson, Lord Hodge and Lord Neuberger favoured a discretionary approach, but their mode of reasoning was described as 'revolutionary' by Lord Sumption (at [261]), who outlined in contrast a more rule-based means of dealing with the issue; a method with which Lord Mance and Lord Clarke broadly agreed. The decision is detailed and complex, and its implications for several areas of the law are considerable. Significantly, the reliance principle from Tinsley v Milligan [1994] 1 AC 340 has been discarded, as has the rule in Parkinson v College of Ambulance Ltd [1925] KB 1. Patel v Mirza, therefore, can fairly be described as one of the most important judgments in general private law for a generation, and it can be expected to have ramifications for the application of the illegality doctrine across a wide range of disciplinary areas. Unless there is legislative intervention, which does not seem likely at the present time, Patel v Mirza is set to be of enduring significance. This collection will provide a crucial set of theoretical and practical perspectives on the illegality defence in English private law. All of the authors are well established in their respective fields. The timing of the book means that it will be unusually well placed as the 'go to' work on this subject, for legal practitioners and for scholars.
