This issue contains a separate section on Fellows’ news, relieving me of the need to summarise all too briefly the considerable achievements of the senior members. Overall, I hope you will agree that the Letter succeeds in its primary objective of being our publication of record, while at the same time informing College members of the wide variety of intense activity that characterises Corpus life. But we are still rather short on Old Members’ views, which we should like to put right. Let me renew the invitation to send your news to Oliver Rackham, Peter Carolin or myself – probably easiest by email to [email protected] As a wonderful example of the genre, I draw your attention to Peter Ryde’s letter about the 1958 May Week operetta p.( 100). Also in the Letters section you will find the announcement of the formation of The 1828 Club, for oarspeople (a word not acknowledged by my spell-check, but necessary, I think), to take place in summer 2012. Leckhampton’s 50th and other celebrations Our cover image of Leckhampton commemorates its foundation 50 years ago – an event celebrated on a fine July Sunday. Former and current members of the community mixed happily together and, festooned with balloons, the perpetually pensive ‘Sam’ joined in the spirit of the occasion. The event is reported on pp. 73–74 and, on the pages immediately following this Domus section, the back- ground to the foundation is described and an assessment made of its significance. I mentioned last year, under the Alumni heading in Domus, the unusual gathering of Corpuscles in ministerial and other Government positions. We celebrated this by giving the Name Day Feast the theme of ‘Corpus in Political Life and Government’ – not exactly a title to stir the blood, but one which did allow us to gather distinguished guests from this field, headed by Owen Paterson, the Northern Ireland Secretary. Other celebrations or ceremonies followed their usual pattern during the year. The Rev Angela Tilby gave the Mere Sermon p.( 39) in April; this turned out to be a happy choice of preacher, since after four years at St Bene’t’s Angela Opposite page: has now moved to Oxford. The relationship between the College and St Bene’t’s ‘Sam’, Henry Moore’s seated figure, attired for is a particularly close one, and we shall miss Angela’s ministry. We are Patrons of Leckhampton’s 50th birthday the living, and are working with the Diocese in helping choose the next incumbent.

  • 1 the Chilcot Report Some Thoughts on International Law And
    The Chilcot Report Some Thoughts on International Law and Legal Advice James A Green and Stephen Samuel+ Abstract The Report of the Iraq (Chilcot) Inquiry was finally published, 7 years after the Inquiry’s creation, on 6 July 2016. The scope of the Inquiry’s work was vast, and this was reflected in the enormous size of its final Report. The publication of the Report thus raises a multitude of questions requiring further analysis. In this short article, we aim to contribute some initial thoughts, immediately following the Report’s publication, in just two (interrelated) areas. First, we comment on the role of international law in the Chilcot Inquiry. To what extent was international law considered and how was it presented in the Report? We also ask whether the Report reaches any implicit substantive legal conclusions, despite formally refraining from determinations of law. Secondly, we review the Inquiry’s findings concerning international legal advice and legal advisers. In particular, we contribute some thoughts on the Report’s treatment of questions relating to the appropriate recipients of legal advice and its transparency, the timeliness of advice, the perception and treatment of law and legal advice by the Government, and the independence and quality of that advice. Professor of Public International Law, University of Reading. + Doctoral Candidate, University of Reading. The authors would like to thank April Longstaffe for her research assistance and the ESRC funded ‘Commissions of Inquiry: Problems and Prospects’ project based at the Human Rights and International Law Unit, University of Liverpool, for the financial support both in relation to financing April’s work for us and for funding our trip to Liverpool in January 2015 (well before the publication of the Chilcot Report in July 2016) to present a work-in-progress version of our underpinning research.

    Written evidence from Dr Samantha Newbery (CHIS0009) Biography A researcher specialising in intelligence and counter-terrorism, Dr Newbery’s forthcoming book addresses the intersection of the use of informers (also known as agents and covert human intelligence sources (CHIS)) and criminality during ‘the troubles’ in Northern Ireland. The book’s themes and cases are directly relevant to this Bill. Dr Newbery’s previous research also addressed policy-making on human rights issues. Her book Interrogation, Intelligence and Security (Manchester University Press, 2015) considered legal and ethical questions raised by the UK’s use of controversial interrogation techniques for counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency since 1945, techniques that were found to be in breach of the European Convention on Human Rights. She is also co-author of Why Spy? The Art of Intelligence (Hurst, 2015) with the late Brian Stewart CMG, a former Deputy Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service. Executive Summary 1. A statutory power to authorise criminal conduct by CHIS This written evidence is in favour of efforts to establish a statutory power to authorise criminal conduct by CHIS. It is appropriate that the Bill covers all public authorities that RIPA permits to use CHIS. Authorisations should only be granted after being approved by an independent review. 2. Immunity from prosecution The ability to prosecute current and former CHIS is essential. The fact that the Bill does not grant them immunity from prosecution should be made clearer to the public, to CHIS and to the handlers to whom CHIS report, either in the Bill itself or through associated publicity.
