  • The Fraternity
    0 This account of manoeuvring around the subject of Rights of Way might, on the face of it, appear to be much to do about nothing. That would be to ignore the alarming levels of activism directed against homeowners undeserving of militant attention. This Report reveals unacceptable levels of insidious abuse of office. What we are saying is that this unchallenged malfeasance has run its full distance: the time has arrived to say ‘enough’, to organise to defend positions and demand a Policy Review. Why, within the bureaucracy, has truth been treated as an option? It is because the pretence of accountability is a sham. The Planning Inspectorate’s Quality Assurance Department is a misnomer: there is neither quality nor assurance. The absence of effective enquiry, of curiosity, is almost total. It is axiomatic that a complaints system must be independent, not left in the hands of the colleagues of the subject of the complaint. The strategic Department of Special Casework has no apparent comprehension or understanding of the meaning of impartiality. Its entire raison d’être appears committed to the protection of reputations and home-team interests. One positive result to arise from this Report is its potential for raising the Judiciary’s awareness that evidence is being put before them upon which they could not and should not rely. The Inspectorate is fully aware that the Judiciary will take the view that their Inspectors are entitled to come to the conclusions that they do, even when it is evident they are acting as interested parties. There is also evidence that the Authority is employing tools such as the filibuster and high legal costs to see off the unwelcome opposition of ordinary citizens.

Consequently the procedures and conventions under which Parliament operates underwent a vast change in a shortperiod of time. But, as Russell and Hazell observed in The State and the Nationsin 2000, changes to the parliamentary process during the first year of devolution were piecemeal and minimalist.

  • Sessional Diary 2002–03
    HOUSE OF COMMONS SESSIONAL DIARY 2002–03 13 November 2002 to 20 November 2003 Prepared in the Journal Office of the House of Commons INTRODUCTION 1. This diary records the business on which the House spent its time in Session 2002–03, analysed into categories, and similar information for sittings in Westminster Hall. It is intended mainly to provide information in response to statistical inquiries, and in using it the following points should be borne in mind: (a) The diary does not include business which took little or no time, such as presentations of bills, unopposed private business, and motions agreed to without debate or division. (b) Divisions are normally included with the business to which they relate. (c) Timings are taken from the Official Report, using the printed times where available, and otherwise taking a column of debate to last three minutes. Daily prayers are assumed to last a standard five minutes (and are not itemised in the analysis), and the time at which the House rose is taken from the Votes and Proceedings. (d) Periods of suspension are included in the total sitting time, and are listed in section 14h of the analysis (Miscellaneous). However, the 2½-hour suspension from 11.30 to 14.00 in Westminster Hall on most Tuesdays and Wednesdays (introduced on 1 January 2003) is shown in brackets in the “Duration” column and is left out of the totals. Other suspensions in Westminster Hall are included in the totals and in the analysis under section 5. (e) The times in the column headed “After appointed time” refer to business taken after the time appointed as the “moment of interruption”.
