  • East Timor Law and Justice Bulletin (ETLJB), the Principal International NGO That Runs an HIV-AIDS Transmission Reduction Program Excludes Gays from Its Program
    TIMOR-LESTE Timor-Leste is a multiparty parliamentary republic with a population of approximately 1.1 million. President Jose Ramos-Horta was head of state. Prime Minister Kay Rala Xanana Gusmao headed a four-party coalition government formed following free and fair elections in 2007. International security forces in the country included the UN Police (UNPOL) within the UN Integrated Mission in Timor-Leste (UNMIT) and the International Stabilization Force (ISF), neither of which was under the direct control of the government. The national security forces are the National Police (PNTL) and Defense Forces (F-FDTL). Security forces reported to civilian authorities, but there were some problems with discipline and accountability. Serious human rights problems included police use of excessive force during arrest and abuse of authority; perception of impunity; arbitrary arrest and detention; and an inefficient and understaffed judiciary that deprived citizens of due process and an expeditious and fair trial. Domestic violence, rape, and sexual abuse were also problems. RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS Section 1 Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom From: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were no politically motivated killings by the government or its agents during the year; however, on August 27, F-FDTL soldiers were involved in a fight with locals in Laivai, Lautem, in which one civilian was beaten to death. The case was handed to the Prosecutor General's Office and the Human Rights Ombudsman for investigation. At year's end the investigation was ongoing. There were no developments in the May 2009 case in which a group of F-FDTL members allegedly beat two men on a beach in Dili; one of the victims was subsequently found dead.

  • Functions, Roles and Duties of Police in General
    Chapter 1 Functions, Roles and Duties of Police in General Introduction 1. Police are one of the most ubiquitous organisations of the society. The policemen, therefore, happen to be the most visible representatives of the government. In an hour of need, danger, crisis and difficulty, when a citizen does not know, what to do and whom to approach, the police station and a policeman happen to be the most appropriate and approachable unit and person for him. The police are expected to be the most accessible, interactive and dynamic organisation of any society. Their roles, functions and duties in the society are natural to be varied, and multifarious on the one hand; and complicated, knotty and complex on the other. Broadly speaking the twin roles, which the police are expected to play in a society are maintenance of law and maintenance of order. However, the ramifications of these two duties are numerous, which result in making a large inventory of duties, functions, powers, roles and responsibilities of the police organisation. Role, Functions and Duties of the Police in General 2. The role and functions of the police in general are: (a) to uphold and enforce the law impartially, and to protect life, liberty, property, human rights, and dignity of the members of the public; (b) to promote and preserve public order; (c) to protect internal security, to prevent and control terrorist activities, breaches of communal harmony, militant activities and other situations affecting Internal Security; (d) to protect public properties including roads,

  • The French Water and River Management System - an Overview
    1 The French Water & River Management System __________________________ THE RIVER RESTORATION CENTRE CRANFIELD UNIVERSITY The French Water and River Management System - An Overview - Jeremy Watkins ENGEES – 2nd Year Student July 2012 Proofread by Simon Medaney 2 The French Water & River Management System Introduction France has an extensive river network. Wide and narrow, fast and slow, long and short, they are all important for biodiversity and the environment. There are hundreds of rivers in France flowing through the départements and régions. In fact, most of the French départements are named after the main river flowing through its territory. In France, 25 % of potable water comes from rivers, so it is important that they are properly managed, to prevent of pollution. In some areas of France, floods are part of life. In the 1960s, substantial work was done to straighten rivers and build weirs all over the country to create safe areas for new building projects. They took little account of the natural course of the rivers. Faced with the past neglect of the environment, habitats and biodiversity, the French government has chosen restoration and management strategies in order to correct the mistakes which were made and to make rivers part of the environmental heritage of the country. The strategies and objectives have been set in order to meet the Water Framework Directive’s 2015 deadline. In order to implement the strategies, in 1991 and 1992, two major parliamentary decisions were taken: the decentralization of governmental obligations and powers by creating local equivalents of the Ministry of the Environment, and the “Second Water Law”, passed in 1992.

  • PROMOTIONAL and NON-STEREOTYPICAL POLICING ROLES: ARE WOMEN OPTING OUT? Susan Robinson*
    Salus Journal Issue 1, Number 3, 2013 Research Article PROMOTIONAL AND NON-STEREOTYPICAL POLICING ROLES: ARE WOMEN OPTING OUT? Susan Robinson* There is an appearance that women are uninterested in applying for positions in specialist areas of policing such as tactical operations, traffic and highway patrol, and counterterrorism. It cannot be assumed however that the low numbers of women is indicative of a lack of interest or will to be involved in these areas as there may be unidentified structural impediments preventing them from gaining access to these jobs. This paper critically discusses the issues relevant to women’s involvement in specialist policing roles and what can be done by police leaders to encourage greater employment of women in specialist policing roles. Key Words: policing, police women, specialist policing, gender, police leadership INTRODUCTION olicing has been a traditionally male dominated profession and for many P years women have been under represented and marginalised. While the overall representation of women in paid employment averages around 46% in most western countries, the level of female representation in policing still does not come anywhere near that figure (Prenzler & Fleming, 2011; Rabe-Hemp, 2007; Westmarland, 2001; Prokos & Padavic, 2002). This picture is slowly evolving as can be seen in the changing statistics for women’s employment in policing. In the United Kingdom in 1998, police women made up only 16% of the total sworn police constable population (Westmarland, 2001). This grew to 27.3% in 2013 (Home Office, 2013). * Corresponding author: [email protected] 1 Salus Journal Issue 1, Number 3, 2013 In Australia, the number of women represented in sworn police positions grew by a similar amount during this same period.
