Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the termination of the Canada Assistance Plan and the adoption of the Canada Health and Social Transfer on April 1, 1996, the federal government contribution to civil legal aid is now part of a block grant to the provinces/territories and there is no longer any specific earmarking of funds for civil legal aid cases (Johnstone and Thomas, 1998). [...] A review of Domestic Legal Aid, conducted in 1992 jointly by the Department of Justice and the Law Society of New Brunswick, found that services and coverage were seriously deficient, with costs becoming unmanageable, and the Department of Justice proposed the creation of a new Domestic Legal Aid service that would be staffed by contracted lawyers (Department of Justice and Legal Aid New Brunswick [...] In 1993, a portion of Domestic Legal Aid became part of the Family Support Services provided by the Court Services Division of the Department of Justice, and would include, for the first time, the services of Court Social Workers trained to screen for domestic abuse, provide paralegal support for the contract lawyers, and offer mediation to clients who were not victims of abuse. [...] Reputed income is calculated by summing 100 percent of the income in excess of the cut-off, 10 percent of property in excess of the cut-off, and 100 percent of liquid assets in excess of the cut-off. [...] In 1999, the Board of Legal Aid Ontario approved a number of service improvements in an attempt to enhance accessibility to legal aid in the province.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection brings together a selection of papers originally presented at the Legal Services Research Centre's seventh international research conference held at the Royal Naval Academy, Greenwich, London, 18 - 20 June 2008. The papers, drawn from three continents, shed light on how major legal aid jusrisdictions are facing the challenge of providing, shaping and extending the reach of legal aid in the face of increasing pressure on resources. The papers give an insight into the role of research in the development of legal aid and are linked in their focus on innovations: from schemes to encourage the next generation of legal aid lawyers, to services built around needs of users and communities, to methods for ensuring quality of services and mechanisms to deliver services for, and engage, "hard-to-reach" and disadvantaged groups.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under this limitation, this review will: • review the types of family law legal aid available, eligibility guidelines and legal aid funding schemes in the selected countries; • identify themes within the PLA models examined; and 1 The term legal aid acquired its modern meaning of a government-funded service providing the opportunity for all people, regardless of income or financial resources, to a [...] Canada implemented the Canadian Assistance Plan in 1966 to address, among other matters, the lack of civil legal aid funding for low income people dealing with non-criminal legal matters, setting the stage for the federal allocation of funds to provincial and territorial civil legal aid programs. [...] The United States established the Legal Services Corporation in 1974 to regulate and allocate federal funds to state legal aid agencies, and in Australia, the provision of legal aid is viewed as a government responsibility, in accordance with international obligations and commitments to ensure social inclusion (PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2009). [...] Over the next two decades, legal aid legislation was enacted in other provinces and territories, building on the success experienced in Ontario and the right to retain and instruct counsel upon arrest without delay enshrined first in the Canadian Bill of Rights5 and later in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Government of Canada, 1982). [...] The federal government does not deliver legal aid services; rather, Canada's Legal Aid Program (LAP) provides contribution funding to the provinces and territories for the delivery of legal aid services (Department of Justice Canada, 2017).

Download or read book Delivering Family Justice in the 21st Century written by Mavis Maclean and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family justice requires not only a legal framework within which personal obligations are regulated over the life course, but also a justice system which can deliver legal information, advice and support at times of change of status or family stress, together with mechanisms for negotiation, dispute management and resolution, with adjudication as the last resort. The past few years have seen unparalleled turbulence in the way family justice systems function. These changes are associated with economic constraints in many countries, including England and Wales, where legal aid for private family matters has largely disappeared. But there is also a change in ideology in a number of jurisdictions, including Canada, towards what is sometimes called neo-liberalism, whereby the state seeks to reduce its area of activity while at the same time maintaining strong views on family values. Legal services may become fragmented and marketised, and the role of law and lawyers reduced, while self-help web based services expand. The contributors to this volume share their anxieties about the impact on the ability of individuals to achieve fair and informed resolution in family matters.

Book excerpt: Unfulfilled legal needs are at a tipping point in much of the Canadian justice system. The Justice Crisis assesses what is and isn’t working in efforts to strengthen a fundamental right of democratic citizenship: access to civil and family justice. Contributors to this wide-ranging overview of recent empirical research address key issues: the extent and cost of unmet legal needs; the role of public funding; connections between legal and social exclusion among vulnerable populations; the value of new legal pathways; the provision of justice services beyond the courts and lawyers; and the need for a culture change within the justice system.

Download or read book Saskatchewan Politics written by Howard A. Leeson and published by University of Regina Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his 2001 volume on politics in Saskatchewan, Howard Leeson observed that vast changes were underway in the Saskatchewan polity, and he predicted that the familiar politics of the past would soon look jarringly antiquated. The contributors to this new volume--Saskatchewan Politics: Crowding the Centre--come to the conclusion that this process of change is now largely complete. As its subtitle makes clear, this new study suggests that political parties in the province have crowded closer and closer to the ideological centre. Without the fulcrum of ideological division, politics in the province appears to be more and more about personal and administrative clashes and less and less about substantive differences as to how the economy and society should be organized. In short, left and right are increasingly being left out of provincial politics. Includes a dvd of the 2006-08 Throne and budget debates between NDP leader Lorne Calvert and Saskatchewan Party leader Brad Wall.

Book excerpt: The consultation process was in part intended to elicit further details in addition to the information in the literature on needs, service delivery and approaches to the provision of legal aid services in family law cases, based on the needs of women and children. [...] The commission is independent of the Minister of Justice and the Attorney General and subject to an annual audit by the Auditor General of New Brunswick. [...] The Supreme Court of Canada has acknowledged that the objective of equality is to protect disadvantaged groups from discrimination and inequality in discriminatory attitudes and rules.8 The fact that legal aid is only accessible for certain legal problems in the civil domain, compared to the greater accessibility that prevails in the criminal sphere, could be deemed discriminatory to women under s [...] The concept of including the rights to health care, shelter, employment insurance and social assistance in section 7 of the Charter remains a dead issue.10 Certain authors also note that section 36 of the Constitution Act of 1982 further entrenches in the Constitution equality of opportunity for all Canadians, the economic development to ensure that equality, and public services for all citizens. [...] In some cases, the situation degenerates to the point where the government is obliged to apprehend the children.19 The lack of legal aid may thus cause women to remain in abusive situations or turn to the government for financial assistance.
