  • OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises REPORT by the CHAIR of the 2011 MEETING of the NATIONAL CONTACT POINTS
    OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises REPORT BY THE CHAIR OF THE 2011 MEETING OF THE NATIONAL CONTACT POINTS Every year, the National Contact Points (NCPs) of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises (“the Guidelines”) meet to review their experiences in performing and promoting the implementation of the Guidelines. They also engage in consultations with the Business Industry Advisory Committee (BIAC), the Trade Union Advisory Committee (TUAC), and with non-governmental organisations (NGOs), notably OECD Watch, to seek their input on how to further enhance the effectiveness of the Guidelines. This report reviews NCP activities as well as other implementation activities undertaken by adhering governments over the June 2010 - June 2011 period. 1 I. Overview The National Contact Points (NCPs) of the 42 adhering governments to the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises (the Guidelines) have met every year since 2001 to share their experiences with the implementation of the Guidelines as they are under the obligation to report annually to the OECD Investment Committee on their performance. NCPs also engage in consultations with the Business & Industry Advisory Committee (BIAC), the Trade Union Advisory Committee (TUAC) and OECD Watch. In addition, a back-to-back conference is organised to help NCPs take into account emerging issues and relevant policy developments in the conduct of their activities. The June 2010-June 2011 implementation period of the Guidelines, to which this report pertains, was dominated by the fifth update of the Guidelines.1 Hence, in addition to highlighting how NCPs have conducted their tasks during this period, this report also singles out the issues that NCPs have identified concerning their contribution over the next review period for an effective implementation of the updated Guidelines.

    THE WORLD JURIST ASSOCIATION’S 24TH BIENNIAL CONGRESS IN PRAGUE CZECH REPUBLIC OCTOBER 27, 2011 PRIVATE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES: A CROSS CULTURAL COMPARISON DWIGHT H. MERRIAM, FAICP ROBINSON & COLE LLP HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT USA In the last half-century throughout the world there has been a near geometric increase in the number of private residential communities, many of them gated and secured from their larger communities. England, New Zealand, France, Portugal, Spain, Mexico, China, South Africa, Russia, Argentina and numerous other Latin American countries, Lebanon, and the United States of America have all experienced this growth in varying ways and with some similar impacts and some different ones. This article reviews the experiences across several nations for a cross-cultural comparison to identify points of commonality and differences and how we might learn from each other in terms of managing private residential communities now and in the future. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA In 1964 there were fewer than 500 so-called “common interest developments.” The terminology here reaches a number of different types of development and organizational scenarios. Common interest developments include single-family residential developments where there are covenants and cross-easements and other legal restrictions imposed on individual property owners. The term might also include condominiums which are not so much a form of development as they are a form of ownership in which individual residential units are owned individually. In condominiums, in addition to the privately-owned units there are “limited common elements” which might include a porch or patio and a small backyard, and “common elements” shared equally and openly by all owners, including access drives, parking, parks, recreational amenities.
