TIPSTAFF Volume II Issue
WARREN COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION, INC. TIPSTAFF Volume II Issue Dear Sisters and Brothers of the Bar: It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome you to the 2020 Fall edition of the Tipstaff. It is my hope that you and your families are safe and healthy in these troubling times. In the midst of this pandemic and the hostile political environment, I believe that practices and activities, such as the Tipstaff which we are able to continue and enjoy from the past, are more important than ever. Since taking the reins in June, Kate and the Board have been working diligently to prepare for the upcoming year in a way and format that has never been done before. We were able to meet in person, with proper masks and semi- social distancing, on the lawn of Morgan & Co. in September. This event was enjoyed by all who attended as we were finally able to have a bit of normalcy and see each other in person. On October 29, 2020, Kate and Maria Nowotny arranged to have Attorney James Long present a CLE on the topic of the New York Shield Act, which was attended by 20 of our members. Maria and Kate are busy preparing a CLE for December discussing the re-opening of the courts to be presented by our local justices and judges and other court staff. Upon the idea of Judge Kershko, Kate and I have worked with the Legal Aid Society of Northeastern New York to partner in the presentation of a CLE for volunteer assistance to pro-se litigants in foreclosure actions.

Review of Renumeration and Conditions of Service for Police Officers and Staff
Review of renumeration and Conditions of service for police officers and staff Metropolitan Police Authority and Mayor of London Officer Response We welcome the opportunity to respond to this “Review of terms and conditions” which we have argued for many years is long overdue. Successive Home Secretaries have failed to respond to the Authority’s calls for major changes to the way police officers, particularly senior police officers, are remunerated. In addition, although the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) is responsible for negotiating with its own police staff, we also feel there are opportunities to modernise their terms and conditions to make them ‘fit for purpose’ for policing in the 21st century. The approach we have adopted in responding to the issues raised by the Review is to deal with them in terms of their generic headings rather than responding individually to the questions that have been asked. The difficulty with the latter approach is that it may segment and dilute the underlying philosophy which, given the context in which the Review is taking place, should drive any recommendations. Arguably, terms and conditions issues are inextricably linked, e.g. police recruitment strategies determine what training and development it is necessary to provide and how career paths are developed. The MPA believes that the police service must be properly accountable for their performance as well as their conduct, and their performance management framework must only reward activity that delivers a better service. The complexity and challenges of modern policing mean that the opportunity provided by this Review should be to reform the workforce to ensure that it is flexible, well trained and highly motivated, with a diverse range of skills and expertise.

Guidance on the Use of the Inherent Jurisdiction (Including Wardship) of the High Court to Protect Vulnerable Children
Guidance on the use of the inherent jurisdiction (including wardship) of the High Court to protect vulnerable children This guidance note should be used where protection of vulnerable children cannot be achieved by other means. Including cases where the following or known or suspected • Radicalisation and risk of leaving the jurisdiction • Sexual exploitation • FGM • Forced marriage Other remedies already exist in relation to 2-4 and these should be considered first: 1 • *Sexual Risk Orders 2 • FGM protection orders • Forced Marriage Protection Orders *Sexual Risk Orders (SROs) are not the only protective order pursuant to the Sexual Offences Act 2003. The CPS, Chief Constable or National Crime Agency (NCA) can make these applications so it would be a matter for these organisations as to whether that would be progressed. 1 https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/442151/2015-07- 03_FINAL_Guidance_Part_2_SOA_2003.pdf 2 https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/416323/Fact_sheet_- _FGM_-_Act.pdf Guidance on the use of the inherent jurisdiction (including wardship) of the High 1 Court to protect vulnerable children – February 2016 v1_01 The Inherent Jurisdiction (IJ) of the High court enables the court to exercise wide ranging powers to protect individual children. It does not enable protection of a group of children, only those who are subject of the application. The court's wardship jurisdiction is part of and not separate from the court's inherent jurisdiction. The distinguishing characteristics of wardship are that – a) custody of a child who is a ward is vested in the court; and b) although day to day care and control of the ward is given to an individual or to a local authority, no important step can be taken in the child's life without the court's consent.

Wiltshire Police Chiefs Get Plain View of Crime and Security Issues
Wiltshire police chiefs get Plain view of crime and security issues Wiltshire police chiefs got a bird’s eye view of Salisbury Plain Training Area (SPTA) as Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) staff gave them the low-down on crime and security issues. Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire Angus Macpherson and Assistant Chief Constable Steve Hedley, were given the rare opportunity of viewing the Plain from the air when they visited the training area. The visit gave Commander Defence Training Estate (DTE) South West Lt Col Mark Hiskett and his team the opportunity to discuss some of the issues and challenges around security, access and crime faced on SPTA and bordering Garrisons. Commenting on the visit, Lt Col Hiskett said: “DIO’s priority is to support our Armed Forces as they prepare for operations. We’re pleased to offer the Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire and the Assistant Chief Constable the opportunity to see the exceptional military training facilities here at Salisbury Plain. “We also shared some of our prime safety and policing issues and I am confident that we will be able to work together in partnership with Wiltshire Constabulary to address these issues in the future.” He added that although DIO’s top priority was to meet military training needs, the organization also had a responsibility to ensure that the archaeological and historical value of Salisbury Plain was maintained. This meeting had enabled DIO to demonstrate its work managing the Plain sustainably. The day began with an introduction to DTE South West and SPTA by Lt Col Hiskett, followed by briefings on dry training, live firing, Garrison Policing issues and public access and security on the Plain.
