Hannibal, Martin Law for social workers 1. Social service – Law and legislation – Great Britain 2. Public welfare – Law and legislation – Great Britain I. Title II. Hardy, Stephen 344.4’1’031’3 ISBN 1 85941 359 5 Printed and bound in Great Britain We dedicate this book to our parents Miriam and Tom (Hardy) and Geoffrey and Joyce (Hannibal). Preface We have no doubt that this book will be used in different ways and at different levels depending on the reader. In fact, that was the whole purpose behind writing this text in the manner set out below. However, whilst the contents list will provide some indication about the general structure and vast subject areas herein, let us outline the following, which we hope will assist your usage of this book: • Each chapter seeks to identify a major area of social work practice. • It is divided into six parts, in order to group relevant areas of practice together for the convenience of the reader and practitioner alike. • Within each chapter the reader will find the relevant law and practice in the area being considered. • The philosophy behind the book seeks to simplify the law and provide a prac- tical approach as to how the law operates in the context of social work law and practice. • The appropriate legal procedures and skills are highlighted and explained at various points in the book, in order for readers to familiarise themselves with the law in action in the pertinent theme. • At the end of each chapter we include practice points and further reading to assist the reader should they wish to pursue the issues discussed further. • This text is written largely for those students seeking to obtain their profes- sional qualification in social work, namely DipSW course students, as well as practising social workers, post-graduate students, lawyers and those with an interest in social policy and issues and social welfare, generally. Overall it is hoped that this text will not only serve as a useful course companion for those undertaking DipSW and the like courses, but will also become a vital resource post-qualification or at the very least during their placement. We wish our readers every success in their studies and practice. vii Acknowledgments According to the Central Council for the Education and Training of Social Workers (CCETSW), there are over some 100,000 people employed in the UK as social workers. This book is about the legal knowledge which any competent social worker ought to have, or at least be aware of. Due to both the breadth of the topic and the complex interface between legal and social work practice, many social work and legal practitioners have given advice on various topics in this book. It from these experiences and professional insights which we believe the book has benefited from immensely. Though that will be for our readers to decide. In particular, we would like to acknowledge the contributions of Micheal Barden, Rhiannon Billingley, Jeff Edwards, Dianne Gibbons, Doug Hearn, Ian Jones, John McCarthy, Peter Robinson and Ian Whitehurst, as well as our other colleagues and students at Salford and Staffordshire respectively and the multitudinous number of social workers and training officers from Social Services Departments across the UK who gave advice on various aspects of this book, or even encouraged us to write it. We remain indebted to the assistance and patience of our publisher, in particular Jo Reddy and Cathy West. As ever, the support of our families, Louise and Merryn, Matt, Nick and Charlie has allowed both this project to exist and be completed. The law is as stated at 1 August 1997. The same law applies to both Scotland and Northern Ireland, unless otherwise stated.

  • Red Tape Robin Ellison Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-42695-4 — Red Tape Robin Ellison Frontmatter More Information RED TAPE Red Tape tells the sometimes astonishing story of the making of laws, both good and bad, the recent explosion in rule making and the failure of repeated attempts to rationalise the statute books – even governments themselves are concerned about the increasing number and complexity of our laws. Society requires the rule of law, but the rule of too much law means that the general public faces frustrating excesses created by overzeal- ous regulators and lawmakers. Robin Ellison reveals the failure of repeated attempts to limit the number and complexity of new laws, and the expan- sion of regulators. He challenges the legislature to introduce fewer yet bet- ter laws and regulators by encouraging lawmakers to adopt practices that improve the eiciency of the law and the lives of everyone. Too much law leads to frustration for all – Red Tape is a long overdue exposé of our legal system for practitioners and consumers alike. robin ellison is a solicitor, a consultant with an international law irm, Pinsent Masons, where he specialises in the development of pensions and related inancial services products for insurers and other providers, and is the Cass Business School Professor of Pensions Law and Economics, City, University of London. He acts for a number of governments and govern- ment agencies and has been an adviser to the House of Commons Select Committee on Work and Pensions. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org

  • Post-Release Controls for Sex Offenders in the US and UK
    1 Post-Release Controls for Sex Offenders in the U.S. and UK Roxanne Lieb * Associate Director Washington State Institute for Public Policy Olympia, Washington, United States Hazel Kemshall Professor DeMontford University Leicester, United Kingdom Terry Thomas Professor of Criminal Justice Studies School of Social Sciences Leeds Metropolitan University Leeds, United Kingdom *contact author 110 Fifth Ave. SE PO Box 40999 Olympia, WA 98504-0999 [email protected] phone (360) 586-2768 fax (360) 586-2793 2 Key Words: Megan’s Law; sex offender policy; registration and notification laws Abstract In recent years, both the United States and United Kingdom have developed numerous innovations in legal efforts to protect society from sex offenders. Each country has adopted special provisions for sex offenders. In particular, governments have focused on forms of social control after release from incarceration and probation. These policy innovations for this category of offenders have been more far reaching than those for any other offender population. The two jurisdictions have adopted policies with similar goals, but the selected strategies have important differences. Generally speaking, the U.S. has favored an ever-expanding set of policies that place sex offenders into broad categories, with few opportunities that distinguish the appropriate responses for individual offenders. The UK government observed the proliferation of Megan’s Laws1 in the U.S., and deliberately chose to establish carefully controlled releases of information, primarily relying on governmental agencies to work in multi-disciplinary groups and make case-specific decisions about individual offenders. Although the UK policy leaders expressed significant concern that the public’s response to knowing about identified sex offenders living in the community would result in vigilantism, to date the results have not born out this fear.
