This joint report by the Home Affairs Committee and the Work and Pensions Committee examines the Government's proposals to reform the law on corporate manslaughter, as set out in the draft Bill (Cm 6497, ISBN 010164972X) published in March 2005 for consultation. The report supports the introduction of the draft Bill to address the need for a statutory offence to shift the basis of liability for corporate manslaughter away from the requirement of identifying a 'directing mind' of a guilty company, since this 'identification principle' has made prosecutions of large companies almost impossible under the current common law. Issues discussed include: the application of the offence of corporate manslaughter in relation to corporations, government departments and police forces; issue of causation; the law of negligence, relevant duty of care and contractual relationships; management failure, the role of senior managers and gross breach; the removal of Crown immunity; territorial application of the offence; corporate sanctions; individual liability for directors; powers of investigation and prosecution, including the requirement to obtain the consent of the Director of Public Prosecutions before a private prosecution can be brought; and cost issues.
UK military personnel as individuals are properly subject to UK and international law wherever they serve and there are processes to ensure scrutiny of their individual behaviour and legal compliance but, in the last ten years, legal judgments in the UK and elsewhere against the MoD have raised a number of legal, ethical and practical questions for the Armed Forces and their conduct of operations. The growing number of such challenges is leading to a feeling of disquiet amongst military personnel and informed commentators about the extent and scale of judicial involvement in military matters.There are two aspects of the use of human rights law in military operations that most concern the Committee: The extraterritorial application of the European Convention on Human Rights has allowed claims in the UK courts from foreign nationals. However, the requirement for full and detailed investigations of every death resulting from an armed conflict is putting a significant burden on the MoD and the Armed Forces. Secondly, there has been a failure of the accepted principle of combat immunity, most recently evidenced in the Supreme Court majority judgment in June 2013 allowing families and military personnel to bring negligence cases against the MoD for injury or death. This seems to us to risk the judicialisation of war and to be incompatible with the accepted contract entered into by Service personnel and the nature of soldiering.
Marks the centenary of the posting of the first Australian High Commissioner in London, so beginning what is today Australia's oldest diplomatic mission. In 1910, when Sir George Reid was appointed its first High Commissioner in London, Australia was a self-governing but not yet sovereign state and the Australian Governor-General remained the most important channel of communication between the Australian and United Kingdom governments until the late 1920s. The book traces the history of the office and in doing so illuminates the larger story of Australian-United Kingdom relations in the twentieth century, the evolution of Australia from British colony to sovereign state and the gradual transition of the United Kingdom from head of an empire to member of the European Union.
