Green Complete Catalogue for 2011. 2010 signified another year of turbulent conditions for many industries, but despite the challenging environment, Greens continued to push ahead, creating new products for Scotland’s legal professionals. Some of the 2010 highlights include the Arbitration (Scotland) Act 2010 published to coincide with the enforcement of the Act, authored by Fraser Davidson, David Bartos and Hew Dundas. 2010 also saw the publication of Professors Gerry Maher and Barry Rodger’s Civil Jurisdiction in the Scottish Courts, the first text on this subject since Duncan & Dykes in 1911. Further key publications include the 3rd edition of Neil Collar’s Planning, a 4th edition of Adoption of Children in Scotland and a 2nd edition of John Kerrigan’s popular Drafting for Succession. W. Green’s partnership with the Scottish Universities Law Institute continued with the December publication of Confidentiality, Personality and Privacy in the SULI series. 2011 is shaping up to be an important year for new W. Green books. Anton & Beaumont’s Private International Law, 3rd edition by Paul Beaumont and Peter McEleavy will publish in December. We are also pleased to announce new editions of Cohabitation; Scottish Trusts: A Drafting Guide and Gretton & Reid’s Conveyancing. Mirroring the current financial climate we also have new editions of Bankruptcy, The Law of Corporate Insolvency and a brand new title; Scottish Debt Recovery: A Practical Guide. 2010 was again a year of positive development for Westlaw UK Scots Law. The Novus platform was rolled out to users, greatly enhancing the system’s functionality, making it quicker and easier to find information. On the contents side, 2010 saw key additions of Session Cases ® PDFs dating back to 1898 as well as Scottish Criminal Law, our monthly criminal cases reports series.

  • Practice Notes for Safeguarders on Court
    PRACTICE NOTES FOR SAFEGUARDERS ON COURT Part I PRACTICE POSITIONS including statements of practice expected from Safeguarders. Part II INFORMATION including relevant law, structures and roles relevant to court. Part III PRACTICE including step-by-step process and potential contributions. January 2019 PRACTICE NOTE FOR SAFEGUARDERS ON COURT FOREWORD Court proceedings are involved in the Children’s Hearings System to allow challenge to grounds or decisions that justify compulsory intervention in a child and a family’s life. The court is a different context to that of a Children’s Hearing. There is often a lot at stake for children and their families and it can be difficult to understand and participate in what are more formal processes. The Safeguarder has an important role to play in keeping the child at the centre and safeguarding the interests of the child during the child’s involvement in this part of the hearings system. The Safeguarder is the only role tasked exclusively with this focus. It is important that Safeguarders are able to perform their role to the highest of standards and in doing so, never lose sight of the individual child and their needs whilst these proceedings are ongoing. Practice Notes supplement the Practice Standards for Safeguarders by providing further clarity on the expectations of Safeguarder practice and conduct. 2 PRACTICE NOTE FOR SAFEGUARDERS ON COURT Contents PRACTICE NOTE ON COURT – PART I - PRACTICE POSITIONS ............................................................. 6 Introduction ......................................................................................................................................

  • Scotland) Bill
    FACULTY OF ADVOCATES Response from the Faculty of Advocates The Children (Scotland) Bill The Faculty of Advocates, as the independent referral bar in Scotland, is pleased to offer its comments on the Children (Scotland) Bill. Part I of the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 was designed to provide a framework for parental responsibilities and parental rights, and for court orders about those responsibilities and rights. The proposed amendments change the nature of the law to introduce prescriptive provisions in respect of some aspects of a case, affording the decision maker less flexibility and narrowing the area in which discretion may be exercised. This is liable to promote disputes regarding what the legislation means, which may have the result of prolonging litigation, delaying resolution and thereby detracting from the best interests of the child. It is acknowledged that provisions with wide discretion can also have this effect. Voice of the child 1 The Faculty is supportive of the views of the child being heard and all appropriate methods being explored to enable that to happen. We note that the presumption that a child of 12 years or more is of sufficient age and maturity to form a view remains in the proposed section 11ZB(4), which appears to be inconsistent with the removal of the presumption elsewhere. The wording elsewhere in relation to the views of the child makes it mandatory for the judge to give a child the opportunity to express a view unless the judge is satisfied that the child is not capable of forming a view. The introduction of an express test of “capacity” is liable to result in additional litigation and promote the use of expert evidence.
