Though the literature on this topic is extensive, this research project explores the issue from a distinctive vantage point. While research on committees has predominantly focused on their outputs, such as committee reports, in order to assess the effectiveness of Parliament in holding the executive to account, this thesis looks at the input-side to committee work. It explores the individual beliefs, everyday practices and perennial dilemmas of parliamentary actors in select committees. In doing so, this thesis argues that understanding beliefs and practices of committee members, chairs and staff are crucial ways to better comprehend the way that scrutiny works in the House of Commons.

  • Submission to the 91St Session of the United Nations Human Rights Committee
    Submission to the 91st Session of the United Nations Human Rights Committee on Respect for Freedom of Expression in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland London October 2007 ARTICLE 19 à 6-8 Amwell Street à London EC1R 1UQ à United Kingdom Tel +44 20 7278 9292 à Fax +44 20 7278 7660 à [email protected] à http://www.article19.org 1. Introduction This submission outlines ARTICLE 19’s main concerns regarding respect for the right to freedom of expression in the United Kingdom. Our submissions is presented in respect of the consideration by the United Nations Human Rights Committee of the Sixth Periodic Report of the United Kingdom on the implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). A list of possible questions to be posed to the United Kingdom representation is appended to this submission. ARTICLE 19 is an international, non-governmental human rights organisation which works around the world to protect and promote the right to freedom of expression and information. 2. Summary of concerns The United Kingdom is a long-standing member of the Council of Europe and European Union and a party to the European Convention of Human Rights as well as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. While the right to freedom of expression is generally respected, there are currently problems in five key areas: Access to information: i) The Freedom of Information Act 2000 contains exemptions which allow access to information to be refused on arbitrary or inappropriate grounds. ii) The government has proposed FOIA amendments to the way the costs of processing a request under the Act are assessed, making it easier to reject politically sensitive or complex requests on the grounds of costs.

  • Restoration of the Right to Protest at Parliament
    Law, Crime and History (2013) 1 LETTING DOWN THE DRAWBRIDGE: RESTORATION OF THE RIGHT TO PROTEST AT PARLIAMENT Kiron Reid1 Abstract This article analyses the history of the prohibition of protests around Parliament under the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005. This prohibited any demonstrations of one or more persons within one square kilometre of the Houses of Parliament unless permission had been obtained in writing from the police in advance. This measure both formed part of a pattern of the then Labour Government to restrict protest and increase police powers, and was symbolically important in restricting protest that was directed at politicians at a time when politicians have been very unpopular. The Government of Tony Blair had been embarrassed by a one-man protest by peace campaigner, Brian Haw. In response to sustained defiance, Mr. Blair’s successor as Labour Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, and opposition Conservative and Liberal Democrat MPs pledged to remove the restrictions, but this was not acted on by Parliament until September 2011. This article argues that the original restrictions were unnecessary, and that the much narrower successor provisions could be improved by being drafted more specifically. Keywords: protest, demonstration, protest at Parliament, freedom of speech, Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005, Brian Haw. Introduction This is about the sorry tale of sections 132-138 Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 (SOCPA).2 These prohibited any demonstrations of one or more persons within one square kilometre of the Houses of Parliament unless advance written permission had been obtained from the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis.

The lists of Councillors are ordered first by the date of their first election, then by their length of service, and then alphabetically. There are Leeds City Council elections in three years out of four, with no elections in 1981, 1985, 1989 and so on, except that because of the Covid pandemic, there were no elections in2020, but elections in 2021. The elections in 1980, 2004 and 2018 were contested on new ward boundaries, with three seats up for election in each ward. In other years only one seat was up for election in each ward, except in a few cases when there was also a casual vacancy to be filled. Sometimes when the boundaries of a ward were changed, its name also changed. The years from 1980 in which a ward of a given name existed are given after the name. Current wards are listed first, followed by former wards. The lists of Councillors by ward are followed by an alphabetical index of all the Councillors elected in the given period.

  • The New Spatial Planning: Territorial Management with Soft Spaces And
    The New Spatial Planning Providing a critical examination of how devolution has influenced the ways that practices of planning have evolved, this book looks at how planning has sought to become more strategic, more spatial and better integrated with other policy sectors. It challenges traditional views of what planning is about and how best to study it. The book highlights the new spaces of planning – the devolved nations of the UK and a variety of new sub-national spaces. Arguing that the reality of spatial planning is that it is producing better quality paper plans whilst still delivering poor quality physical development on the ground, this book takes a provocative tone questioning whether spatial planning is having the kinds of impacts its advocates would wish. Original research undertaken across Ireland and the devolved nations and regions of the UK is the base of the book, which emphasises the divergence of planning practices that devolution has allowed to unfold. Separate chapters present cases of spatial planning experience in Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and two English regions – the Thames Gateway and the Leeds City Region. New insights into spatial planning, regeneration and territorial politics are clearly presented here, resulting in an invaluable source book on the first decade or so of planning experience post-devolution for researchers and students interested in urban and regional studies, geography and planning. Graham Haughton is Professor of Human Geography at the University of Hull. His research is in the areas of spatial planning, sustainable urban development, local and regional economic development, and urban and regional regeneration.
