It also includes some statutory publications. Its objective is to help people to understand the Parliament and its work by providing a comprehensive and comprehensible guide to the relevant documentation. Under each heading we explain what the documents are and then list them. There is guidance on how to obtain each type of document. Most of the Parliament’s publications are available as printed publications in addition to being available electronically via our website: http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/home.htm Previous bibliographies, listed below, are also available on our website at http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/corporate/bibliographies/index.htm Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, May 2007 to June 2008 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, July 2006 to April 2007 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, July 2005 to June 2006 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, July 2004 to June 2005 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, May 2003 to June 2004 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, July 2002 to March 2003 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, July 2001 to June 2002 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, July 2000 to June 2001 Scottish Parliamentary and Statutory Publications, May 1999 to July 2000 Parliamentary Procedure The Parliament's procedures are primarily governed by the Standing Orders. In addition, a number of volumes of guidance have been produced by the Clerking and Reporting Directorate to explain how key aspects of Parliamentary business operate in practice, by reference to relevant standing orders, determinations, conventions and practices. Although the guidance is aimed primarily at MSPs and clerks, it is also a useful reference source for anyone wishing to follow Parliamentary proceedings in detail.

Bills are either public - seeking to change the general law – or private – seeking powers for a particular individual or organisation that are in excess of or in conflict with the general law. Public Bills can be introduced by a member of the Scottish Executive (an ‘Executive Bill’), a parliamentary committee (a ‘Committee Bill’), or an individual member of Parliament (a ‘Member’s Bill’). Private Bills are introduced by the person seeking the powers provided for by the Bill. A Bill is issued with accompanying documents. These can include, whether it is within the Parliament’s legislative competence (statement on legislative competence), an explanation of the Bill’s provisions (explanatory notes), the policy behind the Bill (policy memorandum) and estimates of the Bill’s administrative and other costs (financial memorandum). Accompanying documents are usually grouped for publication. Bills are numbered sequentially within each session as they are published, in the following way - SP Bill 1, SP Bill 2 etc. Accompanying documents have the same numbering system as the bill they relate to but with the addition of an explanatory abbreviation, e.g. - SP Bill 1-EN (explanatory notes), SP Bill 1-PM (policy memorandum). Subsequent versions of the bill are numbered SP Bill 1A, SP Bill 1B etc. Each version of the bill has an addendum to the title describing what stage the bill is at - [As Introduced], [As Amended at Stage ...], [As Passed]. More information on Bills can be found on our website at http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/business/bills/index.htm Scottish Parliament Bills 6A-EN Judiciary and Courts (Scotland) Bill: explanatory notes (and other accompanying documents) - 32 p.; 30 cm.: pbk - An Act of the Scottish Parliament to make provision about the judiciary and the courts; to establish the Scottish Court Service; and for connected purposes. - Executive Bill. - 22 September 2008 - 9781406145861 - £5.10 6A-ML Judiciary and Courts (Scotland) Bill: marshalled list of amendments for Stage 3 - 5 p.; 30 cm.: pbk. - 23 September 2008 - 9781406145908 - £0.90 6B Judiciary and Courts (Scotland) Bill: [as passed] - 55 p.; 30 cm.: pbk - 26 September

I have also benefited greatly from the expert legal knowledge of Mr Y. D.H. Sellar of the Department of Scots Law. The members of Professor G.V. S. Barrow's postgraduate seminar have provided a stimulating environment in which to originate and refine many of the ideas that this thesis contains. Versions of parts of the thesis have been presented to the Conference of Scottish Hedievalists and to the Association of Scottish Historical Studies, and I found the discussion on those occasions most helpful. The staffs of Aberdeen City Archives, Arbroath Library, the British Library, Dundee District Archive and Record Centre, Montrose Town Hause, the Rational Library of Scotland, Perth Museum and Art Gallery, the Sandeman Library, Perth, and the Scottish Record Office have all made available their archives, large and small, with equal courtesy.

National Prisoner Healthcare Network Stakeholder Event, 27 August 2014 National Prisoner Healthcare Network hosted a stakeholder event at the Beardmore Conference Centre on 27 August 2014 to consider the structure and objectives for the Network going forward. The purpose being that a focus on change to the Network after the first two years had concluded successfully and the need to embrace fully the health inequalities agenda of Scottish Government under the umbrella of both the Ministries of Health and Justice. This event was well attended and was an opportunity for all interested parties to discuss and agree a way forward that will enable the Network to maximise its own effectiveness and its impact on the stated aim to reduce offending and reoffending in Scotland. The event was also an opportunity to celebrate the success of the Network over the first two years of its existence and to thank those involved for their contribution to its success.

Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.law.georgetown.edu/facpub Part of the Constitutional Law Commons The Original Fourth Amendment Laura K. Donohue† The meaning of the rights enshrined in the Constitution provides a critical baseline for understanding the limits of government action—perhaps nowhere more so than in regard to the Fourth Amendment. At the time it was adopted, the Fourth Amendment prohibited the government from entering into any home, warehouse, or place of business against the owner’s wishes to search for or to seize persons, papers, or effects, absent a specific warrant. Consistent with English common law, the nota- ble exception was when law enforcement or citizens were pursuing a known felon. Outside of such circumstances, search and seizure required government officials to approach a magistrate and, under oath, to provide evidence of the suspected offense and to particularly describe the place to be searched and persons or things to be seized. Scholars’ insistence that the Fourth Amendment does not entail a general protection against government entry into the home without a warrant does more than just fail to appreciate the context. It contradicts the meaning of the text itself, which carefully lays out the conditions that must be met before the government may intrude.

    Friday 30 October 2015 SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT Learning and Justice Graeme Pearson (South Scotland) (Scottish Labour): To ask the Scottish Government how many prisoners have been prescribed methadone in each year since 2006-07, broken down by prison. (S4W-27817) Paul Wheelhouse: The following table provides a snapshot of data relating to the numbers of prisoners prescribed with methadone in each prison in Scotland from May 2006. This data is a count of the number of prisoners recorded as receiving a methadone prescription on a single day. This information was gathered by Scottish Prison Service (SPS) and the NHS to provide an indicative figure of the number of people in prisons in receipt of methadone. This data was collected by SPS up until 2010. There is a hiatus in data collection (2011-13) following the transfer of service provision from SPS to NHS, however, this data is now being collected twice a year by National Prisoner Healthcare Network. Further work is currently underway to determine the most effective model for incorporating and delivering the requirements which will allow future detailed reporting.

  • The Evolution of Parliament
    THE EVOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT BY A. F. POLLARD, M.A., LITT.D. SECOND EDITION, REVISED First published in 1920 Second edition 1926 PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION THISvolulne is the outcome of studies which were turned Ln the direction of constitutional history partly by my appointment to a chair with that title at University College, London, in 1903, and more specifically by my election in 1908 to a fellowship at All Souls' College, Oxford, on con- dltion of pursuing researches suggested by the late F. W. Maitland. The first sketch of this essay took the form of six public lectures delivered in London in Lent Term 1913, which were expanded into fifteen lectures given on the Goldwin Smith foundation at Cornell University and else- where in the United States in the following spring. The manuscript was completed, save for some notes and refer- ences, in August 1915, when the increasing tension of the war put a stop to remoter studies. During these seventeen years the history of the English parliament has attracted the labour of several learned historians, and particular acknowledgement is due to Pro- fessor C. H. McIlwain's High Court of Parliament, which, coming into my hands at the end of 1912, confirmed the trend of my investigations and supplied me with fresh ideas and illustrations. Another American book, Professor Bald- win's King's Council in the Middle Ages, published in 1914, threw valuable light on a collateral subject. But the starting-point for all of us has been Maitland's introduction to the Menzoranda de Parliarnento, which he edited for the Rolls Series in 1893, the most original and suggestive essay v vi PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION vii that has ever been written on the medieval English par- held at University Collcge during the last six years liament.
