Not only do we act in the interests of our solicitor members but we also have a clear responsibility to work in the public interest. The Law Society of Scotland’s consultation on the issue of separate representation in conveyancing transactions opened on 18 June 2013 and closed on 21 July 2013. We received 279 responses from our members and from individuals and organisations outwith the legal profession and would like to thank everyone who took the time to respond. The consultation sought views on mandatory separate representation in conveyancing transactions between borrowers and lenders. The consultation response evidences that this is very much a live issue, with strong opinions on both sides.

Aside from the inevitable hyperbole, these Footnotes headlines carry an element of truth and, more importantly, Page 12 act as a cautionary reminder of the pervasive nature of corruption, particularly within the construction industry. In 2011, Transparency International’s Bribe Payers Index indicated that, out of the 19 different business sectors it surveyed across 28 of the world’s largest economies (including the UK), bribery was perceived to be most common in the public works contracts and construction sector. This perception of the construction industry remains and is not confined to jurisdictions that are seemingly more corrupt than the UK1. A report produced by the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) in September 2013 found that 49% of the 701 UK based construction professionals it surveyed considered that corruption was either extremely or fairly common within the UK construction industry. This sentiment was reinforced by a subsequent report published by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation & Development (OECD) in December 2014, which analysed 427 bribery enforcement actions across 17 countries (including the UK) between February 1999 and June 2014 and noted that almost two thirds of the cases occurred in just four sectors, with the construction industry ranking as the joint second most corrupt of those sectors.

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.
