Gulf Times 4 Thursday, November 17, 2016 QATAR Prostate cancer awareness drive launched atar Cancer Society (QCS) has launched a campaign to raise awareness of prostate cancer, the second most common cancer among men in Qatar, and the fi fth most Qcancer causing death in men globally. The campaign will have several awareness lectures and workshops aimed at various sectors in the country. They highlight the most important symptoms and factors which increase the likelihood of the prostate cancer as well as methods of prevention and cure. Prostate cancer risk factors are age - the chance of having prostate cancer rises rap- idly after age 50; family history - having a father or brother with prostate cancer more than doubles a man’s risk of developing this disease; diet- men who eat a lot of red meat or high-fat dairy products and fewer fruits and vegeta- bles appear to have a slightly higher chance of getting prostate cancer. According to Dr. Hadi Mo- hamad Abu Rasheed, health educator at QCS, other fac- tors that lead to prostrate cancer are obesity, smok- ing and chemical exposures. Obese men have a higher risk of getting more advanced and serious prostate cancer. Smoking has been linked to increased risk of dying from prostate cancer.

    The Process of Brexit: What Comes Next?

    LONDON’S GLOBAL UNIVERSITY THE PROCESS OF BREXIT: WHAT COMES NEXT? Alan Renwick Co-published with: Working Paper January 2017 All views expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the UCL European Institute. © Alan Renwick (Image credit: Way out by Matt Brown; CC BY 2.0) The Process of Brexit: What Comes Next? Alan Renwick* * Dr Alan Renwick is Deputy Director of the UCL Constitution Unit. THE PROCESS OF BREXIT: WHAT COMES NEXT? DR ALAN RENWICK Executive Summary The phoney war around Brexit is almost over. The Supreme Court has ruled on Article 50. The government has responded with a bill, to which the House of Commons has given outline approval. The government has set out its negotiating objectives in a White Paper. By the end of March, if the government gets its way, we will be entering a new phase in the Brexit process. The question is: What comes next? What will the process of negotiating and agreeing Brexit terms involve? Can the government deliver on its objectives? What role might parliament play? Will the courts intervene again? Can the devolved administrations exert leverage? Is a second referendum at all likely? How will the EU approach the negotiations? This paper – so far as is possible – answers these questions. It begins with an overview of the Brexit process and then examines the roles that each of the key actors will play. The text was finalised on 2 February, shortly after publication of the government’s White Paper. Overview: Withdrawing from the EU Article 50 of the EU treaty sets out a four-step withdrawal process: the decision to withdraw; notification of that decision to the EU; negotiation of a deal; and agreement to the deal’s terms.

    A Guide to Brexit Terminology This glossary has been designed to explain some of the key terms used in relation to Brexit. At the end of the glossary are links to additional resources and originals of key documents. The Glossary is not designed to be an exhaustive list and the authors hope that you find the explanations of key terms helpful. The UK which voted to join the EU had a different constitution to the UK that voted to leave the EU. This is reflected by some of the terminology used in the glossary and the inclusion of reference to the legislatures in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The referendum was authorised and conducted under the European Union Referendum Act 2015. It is advisory because Parliament is sovereign and because the Act contained no enabling legislation. Enabling provisions are ones which explicitly state that Parliament is legally bound to implement the outcome of the referendum. Hence, Parliament was not legally obliged to enact the outcome of the Brexit referendum. In contrast, for countries with codified constitutions, the outcome of a referendum ‘may’, in some instances bind both parliament and the government to implement its result. In Britain, however, with an uncodified constitution, it is possible for the government to promise in advance that it would respect the result, but that promise would be only political and not legally binding as parliament cannot be bound be a previous parliament; it can change its mind.

  • Brexit: Après May, Le Déluge

    Brexit: Après May, Le Déluge

    12 April 2017 DISCUSSION PAPER Brexit: après May, le déluge Andrew Duff After the kerfuffle in the courts over who should have the final say on invoking Article 50, the British parliament has done its stuff. Having supported Mr Cameron's Brexit referendum without demur, both the Lords and the Commons had to accept the negative result of the referendum. Then, having already backed Theresa May's timetable for starting Brexit negotiations, both Houses passed the legislation empowering the prime minister to send the famous letter to the president of the European Council, via Eurostar, on 29 March.1 So she did. And parliament at Westminster is now entirely complicit in the decision to abandon the United Kingdom's membership of the European Union. In her letter to Donald Tusk, Mrs May asked for "a deep and special partnership" between Britain and Europe, and promised to come forward in due course with "detailed proposals for deep, broad and dynamic cooperation". The only concession she made to secure parliamentary backing was the promise that both MPs and peers will have an indicative vote on the draft secession treaty before the European Parliament decides whether or not to give its own consent to the package. This preliminary vote at Westminster supplements the constitutional right that the Commons already enjoys to veto any international treaty. So we have the intriguing prospect of there being two moments in late 2018 or early 2019 when the British parliament could halt Brexit. 'Look before you leap' Speculation around the possibility of rescinding Article 50 is therefore bound to continue.
