  • English Legal System – an Overview
    1 English legal system – an overview Learning objectives By the end of this chapter you should: • appreciate the characteristics of law; • be able to identify sources of law and explain the different processes of law- making; • understand the various meanings of the term common law; • know in outline the structure, composition, and jurisdiction of the courts; • be able to explain the impact of membership of the European Union and the European Convention on Human Rights; and • have an overview of the bodies and personnel of the law. Introduction The study of the English legal system involves two different, but related processes. First, as a law student, you must learn a large body of factual material about the fundamental concepts of law, the sources of English law, and the institutions and the personnel of the law. You will encounter the material in this chapter during your study of the English legal system but you will fi nd that the material also underpins an understanding of other substantive modules, such as Contract, Tort, and Criminal law. This information contains the ‘basic tools’ that a law student needs to start to understand law and how it operates. Second, such knowledge is essential to the next process which involves a critical evaluation of the operation of law and its institutions; it is one thing to say what the law is, but quite another to explain if the law or an institution is operating effect- ively. A sound knowledge base is needed to found critical studies of the legal system or of the ‘law in action’.

The legislation includes several exemptions which allow the use of a maximum of two dogs for certain hunting activities, including stalking and flushing. The exemptions under the Act can be amended using a statutory instrument with the approval of both Houses. The Conservative Government included a manifesto commitment to repeal the Hunting Act. However, in July 2015 the Government announced that it intended to amend the legislation to remove the limit on the number of dogs, and instead replace it with a requirement that the number of dogs used is appropriate to the terrain and any other relevant circumstance.

  • Introduction to Staff Register
    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 15 October 2020) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register In accordance with Resolutions made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985 and 28 June 1993, holders of photo-identity passes as Members’ secretaries or research assistants are in essence required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £410 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass. Any gift (eg jewellery) or benefit (eg hospitality, services) that you receive, if the gift or benefit in any way relates to or arises from your work in Parliament and its value exceeds £410 in the course of a calendar year.’ In Section 1 of the Register entries are listed alphabetically according to the staff member’s surname. Section 2 contains exactly the same information but entries are instead listed according to the sponsoring Member’s name. Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented.

  • R V ADAMS, Appeal Against Conviction. Unreported, Cambridge Crown Court, 9 May 2019
    R v ADAMS, appeal against conviction. Unreported, Cambridge Crown Court, 9 May 2019. Hunting Act 2004; exempt hunting under Schedule 1; exemption under “flushing from cover for the purposes of falconry” Fox hunting has continued despite the Hunting Act 2004. There is a fairly small section of the population passionately in favour of hunting, with comparable section fiercely opposed to it, leaving a majority with a spectrum of views, perhaps tilting towards those who think it a distasteful activity, not worth reviving. Noticeably, Jeremy Hunt as a candidate for Conservative leadership this July, briefly favoured promising a further vote in Parliament, but soon backed off as he realised that it could cost him support within the Conservative party membership. Theresa May went into the 2017 election promising a further vote in the new parliament on whether to repeal the Hunting Act but in the event, so certain was its defeat, there was no attempt to introduce such a bill. Fox hunts have none the less continued to meet despite the restrictions of the Hunting Act 2004. They have had make adaptions. Some have organised “drag hunts” – that is following a scent laid by pulling a bag over the ground for the hounds to follow. Other fox hunts spotted an exemption in the Hunting Act. Under the Act hunting a wild mammal with dogs is unlawful unless it is one of the exempt activities set out in Schedule 1. Para 6 of Schedule 1 provides: Flushing a wild mammal from cover is exempt hunting if undertaken– (a) For the purpose of enabling a bird of prey to hunt the wild mammal, and (b) (Is on land the hunter owns or where he has permission to hunt) Fox hunts have therefore gone out with a golden eagle or similar bird of prey ready for release, and claimed that what was actually going on was a form of falconry.

  • 40 Dogs to Kill a Fox: Amending the Hunting Act 2004 Gregory Gordon
    40 dogs to kill a fox: Amending the Hunting Act 2004 Gregory Gordon, Guildhall Chambers If hunting is banned, I might as well leave the country and spend the rest of my life skiing.1 So said, it is reported, the heir to the throne. It must be frightening and confusing to find yourself on the wrong side of history just as the tides of social acceptability change against you. Opponents of the Hunting Act 2004 assured us it would destroy rural livelihoods, lead to the destruction of thousands of bloodhounds and overrun the countryside with foxes. Now that none of the above has come to pass, and public opinion remains firmly in favour of the Act, you would be forgiven for expecting that those who enjoy watching a pack of dogs tear a fox apart had nowhere left to turn. Not so. Free Vote As early as next Wednesday [15 July 2015] the Government plans to allow a free vote in the Commons to relax the law on hunting mammals with dogs. The Conservatives are not yet fulfilling their manifesto pledge to allow a vote on the full repeal of the Act, but may not need to if their deceptively dry proposed amendments are passed: the tortuously named Hunting Act (Exempt Hunting) (Amendment) Order 2015. Currently, only two dogs are permitted to “flush” a fox (who has, for fear of its life, taken cover underground) to the surface where the barrel of a gun awaits. The amendments would permit 40 hounds to do the job. Why? Are some burrows so cavernous that only 40 dogs could find a fox hidden therein? No.

    PARTNERSHIP & SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES Great Taste is the Great Taste is the only food award most rigorous food award worth having. scheme out there. “ Charles Campion “ Xanthe Clay Food Critic & MasterChef” Judge Food Writer, Weekend” Telegraph The Great Taste Awards are known as the “Oscars” “of the food industry Sunday Times INTRODUCTION FROM JOHN FARRAND, GUILD OF FINE FOOD AND GREAT ”TASTE When we first launched the Great Taste awards in 1994, there was no great plan to create a national benchmark for speciality food and drink. We merely sought to offer small food producers an accreditation that would help them fight big-budgeted, super-premium brands sold in supermarkets. 23 years later, Great Taste has grown beyond our wildest dreams and is acknowledged as the UK food industry’s most rigorous and authoritative standard for fine food and drink. In fact, the Great Taste brand has gained a worldwide reputation. The unique appeal of the awards lies in its name – a star is granted for nothing other than ‘great taste’. Ten thousand food and drink products were blind tasted last year by leading food experts, chefs and food writers, including many of the industry’s most famous names. Every product awarded a one-star tastes great, without a single marketing gimmick in sight. Two- and three-stars indicate sheer perfection, foods boasting that indefinable ‘wow’ factor. But Great Taste is not just about acknowledging great food. It also feeds back positive help to those producers whose products still have a little way to go before they too, are worthy of an award.
