The list of documents included in any particular volume will depend on the nature of the Bill and the circumstances of its passage, but a typical volume will include: x every print of the Bill (usually three – “As Introduced”, “As Amended at Stage 2” and “As Passed”); x the accompanying documents published with the “As Introduced” print of the Bill (and any revised versions published at later Stages); x every Marshalled List of amendments from Stages 2 and 3; x every Groupings list from Stages 2 and 3; x the lead Committee’s “Stage 1 report” (which itself includes reports of other committees involved in the Stage 1 process, relevant committee Minutes and extracts from the Official Report of Stage 1 proceedings); x the Official Report of the Stage 1 and Stage 3 debates in the Parliament; x the Official Report of Stage 2 committee consideration; x the Minutes (or relevant extracts) of relevant Committee meetings and of the Parliament for Stages 1 and 3. All documents included are re-printed in the original layout and format, but with minor typographical and layout errors corrected. An exception is the Groupings of Amendments for Stage 2 and Stage 3 (a list of amendments in debating order was included in the original document to assist members during actual proceedings but is omitted here as the text of the amendments is already contained in the Marshalled Lists of Amendments for Stage 2 and Stage 3). Documents in each volume are arranged in the order in which they relate to the passage of the Bill through its various stages, from introduction to passing. The Act itself is not included on the grounds that it is already generally available and is, in any case, not a Parliamentary publication. Outline of the legislative process Bills in the Scottish Parliament follow a three-stage process. The fundamentals of the process are laid down by section 36(1) of the Scotland Act 1998, and amplified by Chapter 9 of the Parliament’s Standing Orders. In outline, the process is as follows: x Introduction, followed by publication of the Bill and its accompanying documents; x Stage 1: the Bill is first referred to a relevant committee, which produces a report informed by evidence from interested parties, then the Parliament debates the Bill and decides whether to agree to its general principles; x Stage 2: the Bill returns to a committee for detailed consideration of amendments; x Stage 3: the Bill is considered by the Parliament, with consideration of further amendments followed by a debate and a decision on whether to pass the Bill. After a Bill is passed, three law officers and the Secretary of State have a period of four weeks within which they may challenge the Bill under sections 33 and 35 of the Scotland Act respectively. The Bill may then be submitted for Royal Assent, at which point it becomes an Act. Standing Orders allow for some variations from the above pattern in some cases. For example, Bills may be referred back to a committee during Stage 3 for further Stage 2 consideration. In addition, the procedures vary for certain categories of Bills, such as Committee Bills or Emergency Bills. For some volumes in the series, relevant proceedings prior to introduction (such as pre-legislative scrutiny of a draft Bill) may be included. The reader who is unfamiliar with Bill procedures, or with the terminology of legislation more generally, is advised to consult in the first instance the Guidance on Public Bills published by the Parliament. That Guidance, and the Standing Orders, are available for sale from Stationery Office bookshops or free of charge on the Parliament’s website (www.scottish.parliament.uk). The series is produced by the Legislation Team within the Parliament’s Chamber Office. Comments on this volume or on the series as a whole may be sent to the Legislation Team at the Scottish Parliament, Edinburgh EH99 1SP. Notes on this volume The Bill to which this volume relates followed the standard 3 stage process described above. Written submissions (other than those related to oral evidence) were not included in the Stage 1 Report by the Local Government and Transport Committee, but were listed at Annexe D of that Report. The submissions are included in this volume after the Report. This volume also includes correspondence to the Local Government and Transport Committee between the publication of its Stage 1 Report and the Stage 1 debate. These items are included here after the written submissions. There was no As Passed version of the Bill in this case as no amendments were agreed at Stage 3. The Bill was therefore passed in its As Amended at Stage 2 form. Forthcoming titles The next titles in this series will be: x SPPB 113: Aquaculture and Fisheries (Scotland) Bill 2006 x SPPB 114: Christmas Day and New Year’s Day Trading (Scotland) Bill 2006 x SPPB 115: Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Bill 2006 x SPPB 116: Schools (Health Promotion and Nutrition) (Scotland) Bill 2006 Prostitution (Public Places) (Scotland) Bill 1 ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS Explanatory Notes, together with other accompanying documents, are printed separately as SP Bill 69-EN. A Policy Memorandum is printed separately as SP Bill 69-PM.

  • The Health Implications of Prostitution and Other Relevant Issues
    The Health Implications of Prostitution and Other Relevant Issues By John O’Loughlin Citizens Against Prostitution Team Member Introduction My task was to research the health implications of prostitution. I found a great deal of information that helped me understand the most hotly debated issues on a deeper level, and I’ve tried to organize that information here for you. I do not necessarily endorse all of the sources referenced below, but present them to you so that you may analyze them and draw your own conclusions. All in all, there are a few things I’ve read that ring true to me: • Prostitution is not a monolithic issue. There are many different perspectives on prostitution, and none are either all right or all wrong. • In many, many instances, prostitution can have a very detrimental effect on the prostitute. • There is very little reliable data on prostitution. • Current efforts to fight prostitution have not been wholly successful. • If you are certain that prostitution is a victimless crime, you should read “Challenging Men’s Demand for Prostitution in Scotland”. • If you are certain that making prostitution illegal is the answer, read “Redefining Prostitution as Sex Work on the International Agenda”. What follows is a summary of 27 separate articles that I reviewed in my research. I simply pulled quotes from the articles with no editorial additions, and organized them (coarsely) into four categories: 1. statistical and informational (reasonably even-handed presentations of information); 2. anti-prostitution (basic agenda is to end prostitution everywhere) 3. the “johns” (focusing on the demand side of the transaction) and 4.

While we are preparing to mark this historic event we must recognise that there is another challenge facing us in today’s modern world. Thousands of people are still forced to live in slavery type conditions around the world, including in the UK, as a result of the modern criminal practice of trafficking in persons. Human trafficking is a truly appalling crime where people are treated as commodities and traded for profit. It is big business, often controlled by organised crime groups who seek the maximum return for their investment at the expense of the health and wellbeing of their victims. Traffickers prey on the vulnerable and normally dupe them into travelling to the UK with promises of work or of a better life. It is not until the person arrives here that the reality of their situation hits home and they find themselves being exploited and abused at the hands of the traffickers.

  • Scotland) Bill (2)
    Response from English Collective of Prostitutes to the Criminalisation of the Purchase of Sex (Scotland) Bill (2). “The elimination of poverty must be a priority for all those working for equal rights for women”1 “Safety is paramount.” The English Collective of Prostitutes is a self-help organisation of sex workers working both on the street and in premises with a national network throughout the UK, including in Scotland. Since 1975 we have campaigned for the decriminalisation of prostitution, for sex workers’ rights and safety, and for resources to enable women to get out of prostitution if we want to and to prevent anyone being driven into prostitution by poverty or other violence. We work with anti-rape and anti-poverty campaigners and organisations which oppose immigration and welfare policies that impoverish women to the point of destitution and make us more vulnerable to attack. We oppose anti- trafficking laws because they have been used primarily to deport immigrant sex workers, and to justify raids and prosecutions of sex workers working consensually. We co-ordinate the Safety First Coalition which includes distinguished members like the Royal College of Nursing and Women Against Rape, and spearheaded the campaign against the 2009 Policing and Crime Act which under the cover of criminalising clients, increased the criminalisation of sex workers. Q1: Do you support the general aim of the proposed Bill? Please indicate “yes/no/undecided” and explain the reasons for your response. No, we do not support the general aim of the Bill and we do not accept the stated reasoning behind it.

    11/3/2019 Hawkwind on television and film Do Not Panic - Film & Television List - DVD Trading ------ Galleries: Albums - Tickets - Programmes - DVD Artwork THE HAWKWIND ALBUMS There is no shortage of Hawkwind material on CD - official, semi-official & bootlegs of studio and live sessions. Not to mention countless compilations and repackaged discs which look exciting but turn out to be Wembley 1973 again. Here is my take on the major 'Official' releases followed by a collection of live CDs. You can pretty much ignore the rest - I don't know who advised Hawkwind that such wide-scale licensing was a good idea but it has devalued the core catalogue and made it difficult for new fans to know where to start. some of it is so dire it has probably deterred many who would otherwise have got into the quality we all know is there. 14 August 1970 - Hawkwind - 1st album released Hurry On Sundown / The Reason Is? / Be Yourself / Paranoia (part 1) / Paranoia (part 2) / Seeing It As You Really Are / Mirror Of Illusion Dave Brock - John Harrison - Nik Turner - Terry Ollis - Dik Mik - Huw Lloyd Langton - Mick Slattery 8 October 1971- In Search of Space - 2nd album released You Shouldn't Do That / You Know You're Only Dreaming / Master Of The Universe / We Took the Wrong Step Years Ago / Adjust Me / Children Of The Sun Nik Turner - Dave Brock - Dave Anderson - Del Dettmar - Terry Ollis - Dik Mik 24 November 1972 - Doremi Fasol Latido - 3rd album released Brainstorm / Space Is Deep / One Change / Lord Of Light / Down Through The Night / Time We Left This World Today / The Watcher Dave Brock - Nik Turner - Lemmy - Dik Mik - Del Dettmar - Simon King 11 May 1973 - Space Ritual Alive - 4th album released Earth Calling / Born To Go / Down Through The Night / The Awakening / Lord Of Light / The Black Corridor / Space Is Deep / Electronic No.
