Many thousands of children and young people’s lives have been touched by projects that we have supported. Learning from our funding programmes has shown that the most positive results are realised when young people are themselves involved in planning and delivering the projects that are aimed at engaging them. Expecting young girls hanging Together, we wanted to increase round a street corner to quit the number and quality of smoking and get a job by opportunities for young people to attending healthy living lessons a get involved in leading projects.

What’s in this guide? The guide starts by examining an approach to participation based on human rights.

Chapter 2 discusses the many benefits that participation brings, not only to children and young people but also to organisations and the wider community. It gives children and young people the chance to gain new skills, experiences and knowledge. It can build their

  • Statutory Duties of Passenger Focus
    NOTE ON DERIVATION OF STATUTORY DUTIES OF TRANSPORT FOCUS Transport Focus has been adopted as an operating name by the Passengers Council, but this title has no formal status in law. Accordingly, its legal name is used in this note. This note deals only with the primary representational and investigative role of the Council and omits all reference to its more specific duties vis-à-vis closures. For the sake of clarity, what are now the Council, the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) and the Secretary of State (SoS) are so described throughout, and references to their predecessor bodies in statutes predating their creation have been amended accordingly. References to regional committees which (apart from the London Transport Users Committee, operating as London TravelWatch) no longer exist have been omitted, as have references to the ORR/Franchising Director/ Strategic Rail Authority (SRA) where these have been subsequently repealed. Extensions to the Council’s jurisdiction contained in legislation authorising construction of the Channel Tunnel are disregarded. Subsequent amendments (including those referred to in the chronological summary below) are incorporated in the text of the measures to which they were applied, without specific identification. Passages not relevant to the Council’s duties (e.g. relating to its composition and administration) are omitted, in consequence of which the numbering of sections and sub- sections may be discontinuous. 1 CHRONOLOGICAL SUMMARY Transport Act 1962 This Act abolished the British Transport Commission and transferred its functions to a number of Boards, of which two now survive : the British Railways Board (BRB) (in name only) and the British Waterways Board (BWB).

These are mainly directives, regulations, decisions and external agreements, but they include a range of other instruments. As Commons Briefing Paper Legislating for Brexit: the Great Repeal Bill, CBP7793, 21 November 2016, explains, a major issue for Brexit is what to do about EU legislation that has been incorporated into UK law. Section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 (ECA) provides a power for subordinate legislation to be made where the EU Treaties require Member States to make provisions in their domestic law, such as for the implementation of EU directives.
