This edition gives a snapshot as at 31 March 2003. Public bodies carry out a wide range of functions on behalf of government. As part of the government’s commitment to transparency and accountability, the Cabinet Office collects and publishes annually information about public bodies as a whole, to supplement information about individual bodies already contained in departmental annual reports. The scope of this publication Previous editions of this publication have reported on the public bodies sponsored by the devolved administrations as well as UK Government departments. In recognition of the bedding down of the devolved arrangements, this year’s publication gives full information, summary statistics and analysis only for bodies sponsored by UK Government departments (this includes the Northern Ireland Office, the Scotland Office and the Welsh Office as appropriate). Summary information about bodies sponsored by the Scottish Executive and the Welsh Assembly Government is at pages 157 and 159 respectively. More detailed information about public bodies and public appointments in Scotland and Wales can be obtained from those devolved administrations themselves. Information about bodies sponsored by the Northern Ireland Executive is at pages 127—155. What is a public body? A public body is not part of a government department, but carries out its function to a greater or lesser extent at arm’s length from central government. Ministers are ultimately responsible to Parliament for the activities of the bodies sponsored by their department and in almost all cases (except, for example, where there is separate statutory provision) ministers make the appointments to their boards. Departments are responsible for funding and ensuring good governance of their public bodies. In this publication, each body is listed under the heading of the government department that is its sponsor. The term ‘public body’ is a general one which includes: Nationalised Industries, such as British Shipbuilders; Public Corporations, such as the BBC; NHS Bodies; and Non-Departmental Public Bodies (NDPBs). iv Commentary There are four types of NDPBs. These denote different funding arrangements, functions and kinds of activity. They are: • Executive NDPBs — established in statute and carrying out administrative, regulatory and commercial functions, they employ their own staff and are allocated their own budgets. • Advisory NDPBs — provide independent and expert advice to ministers on particular topics of interest. They do not usually have staff but are supported by staff from their sponsoring department. They do not usually have their own budget, as costs incurred come within the department’s expenditure. • Tribunal NDPBs — have jurisdiction in a specialised field of law. They are usually supported by staff from their sponsoring department and do not have their own budgets. • Boards of Visitors — ‘watchdogs’ of the prison system. Their duty is to satisfy themselves as to the state of the prison premises, their administration and the treatment of prisoners. The sponsoring department meets the costs. Numbers of bodies There were 849 public bodies sponsored by UK Government departments as at 31 March 2003. This figure is made up of 3 Nationalised Industries, 12 Public Corporations, 23 NHS Bodies and 811 NDPBs. The NDPB group is made up of 206 Executive NDPBs, 422 Advisory NDPBs, 33 Tribunal NDPBs (counted on the basis of tribunal systems rather than individual boards) and 150 Boards of Visitors. The government continues to keep the need for each public body under review and new public bodies are only set up when it can be demonstrated that they provide the best means of delivering the function required. Appointments to public bodies More than 22,000 people from a wide range of backgrounds across the whole of the UK currently participate in public life by being members of the boards of the public bodies listed in this publication. The government has two fundamental commitments when it comes to public appointments. The first and overriding principle is that selection should be made on merit, using fair and open procedures that ensure the best available candidate is selected and appointed to each post. The second is a commitment to improving diversity in public appointments and recognition that the boards of public bodies will be most effective if they benefit from access to a wide range of skills, experience and backgrounds among their members. In particular, the government wishes to increase the number of appointees from currently under-represented groups to achieve equal representation of women and men, pro rata representation of members of minority ethnic groups and increased participation of disabled people. As at 31 March 2003, 35.7% of appointments to public bodies were held by women, 5.3%by people with a minority ethnic background and 3.1% by disabled people. v Commentary In line with these government commitments, each central government department produces plans, including specific time-based targets, for increasing and improving diversity, and reports annually on progress to date. Regulating the appointment process The post of Commissioner for Public Appointments was established in November 1995 and the current Commissioner is Dame Rennie Fritchie. The Commissioner’s role is to regulate, monitor and report on the way ministers make appointments to the boards of public bodies. The Commissioner’s jurisdiction currently covers ministerial appointments to public bodies in Great Britain. There is a separate post of Commissioner for Appointments in Northern Ireland (also currently held by Dame Rennie Fritchie). Proposals to establish a Scottish Commissioner for Public Appointments are underway and the Scottish Executive aims to appoint a Commissioner by the end of 2003. The Welsh Assembly Government is considering whether a separate Commissioner should be established for Wales. About half of all public appointments fall within the Commissioner’s remit. The government, however, seeks to follow the Code of Practice established by the Commissioner as good practice for all public appointments wherever possible. All public bodies falling within the Commissioner’s jurisdiction are shown in the following pages as ‘OCPA regulated’. Most of the appointments that are not regulated by OCPA are appointments to tribunals, the majority of which are separately regulated by the Commissioner for Judicial Appointments. A key to this publication is contained on the back page. vi Public Bodies 2003 Statistical Tables Statistical Tables Table 1: Number of Public Bodies, 2002/2003 by department Department Executive NDPBs Advisory NDPBs Tribunal NDPBs Boards of Visitor NDPBs Public Corporations Nationalised Industries NHS Bodies Total no.

  • Women Readers of Middle Temple Celebrating 100 Years of Women at Middle Temple the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for England and Wales
    The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple Middle Society Honourable the The of 2019 Issue 59 Michaelmas 2019 Issue 59 Women Readers of Middle Temple Celebrating 100 Years of Women at Middle Temple The Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for England and Wales Practice Note (Relevance of Law Reporting) [2019] ICLR 1 Catchwords — Indexing of case law — Structured taxonomy of subject matter — Identification of legal issues raised in particular cases — Legal and factual context — “Words and phrases” con- strued — Relevant legislation — European and International instruments The common law, whose origins were said to date from the reign of King Henry II, was based on the notion of a single set of laws consistently applied across the whole of England and Wales. A key element in its consistency was the principle of stare decisis, according to which decisions of the senior courts created binding precedents to be followed by courts of equal or lower status in later cases. In order to follow a precedent, the courts first needed to be aware of its existence, which in turn meant that it had to be recorded and published in some way. Reporting of cases began in the form of the Year Books, which in the 16th century gave way to the publication of cases by individual reporters, known collectively as the Nominate Reports. However, by the middle of the 19th century, the variety of reports and the variability of their quality were such as to provoke increasing criticism from senior practitioners and the judiciary. The solution proposed was the establishment of a body, backed by the Inns of Court and the Law Society, which would be responsible for the publication of accurate coverage of the decisions of senior courts in England and Wales.

  • Australian Naval Aviation Museum Are Tangible Examples of Your Continuing Interest and Support

But that said, we are all a part of the same very fine Service and as Navy's current 'people' person, I am delighted to come to the party. Professionally, my early dealings with Naval Aviation were confined to the not so glamorous world of logistics where I was amazed by the staggering quantities of bits and pieces demanded by Air Engineers to keep those airframes flying and also gained an understanding of their commitment to air worthiness. The ROE [role of effort] has not diminished! Now, I have to man the aircraft and provide the technicians; not always an easy task but, as ever, there are many fine people in the Naval Personnel Division and the wider community to assist. In that role, the excellent contribution of the Fleet Air Arm Association in maintaining the esprit de corp is invaluable.

  • UK EDP Inventory Update October 2011
    EDP Consolidated Inventory of sources and methods United Kingdom October 2011 Introduction In the UK the General Government (GG) sector is composed of Central Government (CG), S.1311, and Local Government (LG), S.1313. The Social Security Fund is not separated from the CG accounts at this time. EDP data for LG is based mainly on returns from local authorities, supplemented by administrative data. Data for Central Government comes from government administration sources, mainly involving information available from departmental accounting systems. HM Treasury (the UK’s Ministry of Finance) collects data quarterly from its Combined On-line Information System (COINS) on an accruals basis, there is generally good counterpart data available. The administrative reporting systems have been designed to produce data on a National Accounts basis. The UK’s Central Bank (the Bank of England) also supplies some data for CG and LG on an accruals basis. Measurements of Government debt and deficit are the joint responsibility of the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and HM Treasury. The ONS calculates completed years and HM Treasury forecasts future years. Classification of bodies to GG and its sub-sectors is the sole responsibility of the ONS, which follows the European System of Accounts (ESA95) in making its decisions. Classification decisions are made through the National Accounts Classification Committee (NACC). Central Government (S.1311) includes all administrative departments of the State and other central agencies whose competence extends normally over the whole economic territory. Regional Health Authorities and National Health Service (NHS) Trusts are considered to be Central Government. The devolved administrations for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are currently included within Central Government.
