Parliamentary Practice in New Zealand provides a detailed description of New Zealand’s parliamentary practice. It is an authoritative text for use by members of Parliament, public servants, academics, parliamentary officers and other working professionals who have an interest in Parliament, such as the legal profession.

This new edition features an attractive design and accessible structure, with extensive indexing and references.
Volume 108 of Terrorism: Commentary on Security Documents tackles the contentious issue that appears in the volume's title: "Extraordinary Rendition". Although many commentators and publications have focused on the U.S. policy of such troubling transfers, little focus has been devoted to the reaction to this policy by the rest of the world. In this volume, new General Co-Editor Aziz Huq both presents the key documents demonstrating that reaction and comments authoritatively on what those documents mean for the future of torture-based international transfers. For ease of research, Huq has divided the volume into two sections: the first deals with U.N. and E.U. responses to the U.S. policy, including a case before the U.N. Committee Against Torture, and the second section tours the reports and cases on rendition that have arisen from national jurisdictions, specifically Italy, Sweden, the U.K., ireland, and Canada.
Two investigations by the Parliamentary Assembly into the High Value Detainee (HVD) program set up by the U.S. administration after the attacks of September 11 revealed numerous serious human rights violations. It was only able to function through the cooperation of certain Council of Europe member states, despite the fact that they are bound by European human rights onventions. The European Commission for Democracy through Law includes its expert legal opinion on general international legal principles and the responsibility that Council of Europe member states would incur if they, either deliberately or by negligence, failed to meet their obligations.--Publisher's description.
As a result of growing concern about the increasing size of the police National DNA Database the Committee decided to take evidence on the subject. This process however was largely overtaken by the introduction of the Crime and Security Bill on 19 November 2009. This report now focuses on two main issues: the principle of retaining DNA profiles taken from individuals arrested but not subsequently charged or from those charged but not convicted; and the lack of consistency in decisions to remove from the database their profiles. The Committee is strongly of the belief that DNA profiling and matching are vital tools in the fight against crime. Nor do they question the taking of DNA samples from everyone arrested for a recordable offence. It is not known how many crimes are solved with the help of the stored personal profiles of those not previously convicted of a crime. It could therefore be argued that the DNA from those never charged with an offence should be treated differently from those charged but not convicted. The Committee hopes that trends of arrests for flimsy reasons should decline and a return to the pre-2004 of DNA being collected only on charging not arrest is not recommended. The corollary to this would that it should be easier for those wrongly arrested or who have volunteered their DNA to get their records removed from the database.
It would be difficult to imagine how a development as world-changing as the emergence of the Internet could have taken place without having some impact upon the ways in which politics is expressed, conducted, depicted and reflected upon. The Handbook o
