\nhave reached an outline deal on the Brexit bill, the country will have to pay

\nplan still needs the confirmation of EU member states, U.K. Prime Minister
\nTheresa May was expected to present the offer on 4th<\/sup> December when she meets European
\nCommission President Jean-Claude Juncker. The EU was asking for at least 60

\nbody in the United Kingdom, and can make or amend laws as they wish. Most ides
\nfor new laws and bills come from the government, as they are the ones who are
\nelected to rule\/govern the country to implement its political agenda. However,
\nthere ways in which the public may contribute and influence a change within the
\nlaw; the main influences are: the Law Commission, pressure groups, and the
\nmedia.<\/p>\nThe Law Commission<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nand permanent body set up by the Law Commissions Act 1965. Its role is to keep
\nthe laws of England and Wales kept checked up and also to suggest any changes
\nwhere it is needed. It focuses on the codification of laws which already exist,
\nand also focus on the repeal of obsolete law. Codification is bringing together
\nall of the law on a particular topic in a single Act of Parliament. Repeal of
\nobsolete law is when the Law Commission removes out-of-date, and old laws. The
\nLaw Commission has a full time staff headed by five Law Commissioners, and one
\nof them is the Chairman. They mainly look over areas of law that were referred
\nto them by the Government.<\/p>\n
\ninfluence on the Brexit Bill.<\/p>\nPressure Groups<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nwho have a similar interest\/ideas in making changes in the law, and also to try
\ninfluence government and parliament to pass laws on matters which interest
\nthem. The can range from a very small group of people to a large amount of
\npeople (near the millions). The may use many different ways to succeed in their
\ninfluencing; they may do that by holing petitions, marches, demonstrations,
\nstrikes, or publicity operations which include advertising. There are different
\ntypes of pressure groups and these include sectional, this sector focuses on
\npromoting their members\u2019 interests and ideas. Also, there are pressure groups
\nand they focus on promoting a general belief or idea they came up as a group.
\nFurthermore, insider groups focus on influencing the government ministers and
\nofficial law-makers in order to achieve what they desire. Finally there are
\noutsider groups, and due to them not having access to lawmakers, they use
\ndirect actions or barely legal ways to promote their ideas and beliefs.<\/p>\n
\nBrexit Bill by persuading some people to vote out of the European Union by only
\ngiving a speech about the good outcomes, and did not warn them about <\/p>\nThe Media<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nthe channels by which the information is reported. Commonly, the media spreads
\nits news through TV, radios, newspapers and magazines. Nowadays media also uses
\na faster way to spread their news which is through the Internet and especially
\nsocial media. All these forms of media are allowing to to inform the public and
\ntherefore allowing to represent and assist in structuring public opinions. The
\nmedia and pressure groups have a very strong link between each other, due to
\nthis lawmakers in Parliament use social media to encourage engagement and the
\ninterpretations of view.<\/p>\n
\nBrexit Bill by putting their own political views forward and convinced people
\nto vote out such as the Sun, who have been supporting The Conservatives party.
\nA source of media, like The Sun, who supports the same ideas as a party can
\nhelp the party to increase the number of people who follow the same views. <\/p>\nStatutory Interpretation<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The Purposive Approach<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\na robbery at a post office with a toy plastic gun, can be guided using the case
\nof R v Bentham (2003) where in the act of a robbery the defendant had held his
\nfinger in his pocket to make the victim think that he was pointing a gun at him
\nto intimidate him. The victim then appealed against a conviction for possession
\nof an imitation firearm. Due to this a purposive approach had to be adopted.
\nPurposive approach comes from the European Court of Justice, it reviews the
\nlegislation and it looks at the purpose of it as a whole. Also, the Firearms
\nAct 1968 will apply because Section 17 of the Firearms Act 1968 Schedule 1
\nstates \u201cIt is an offence for a person to make or attempt to make any use
\nwhatsoever of a firearm or imitation firearm with intent to resist or prevent
\nthe lawful arrest or detention of himself or another person.\u201d Also Schedule 2
\nstates \u201cIf a person, at the time of his committing or being arrested for an
\noffence specified in Schedule 1 to this Act, has in his possession a firearm or
\nimitation firearm, he shall be guilty of an offence under this subsection
\nunless he shows that he had it in his possession for a lawful object.\u201d As
\nresult to this, Mr S. Wesson is to be found guilty for possession of an
\nimitation firearm.<\/p>\nThe Golden Rule<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nher husband but wanted to claim his estate as she is named as the sole
\nbeneficiary in his will, can be guided by the precedent of Re: Sigsworth (1935)
\nwhere the son (the murderer) would have inherited her estate, making him the
\nbeneficial party of the crime, there were no ambiguous words in the act,
\ntherefore the court did not agree to let a murderer benefit from his crime, so
\nthis led the court to decide that the literal rule should not be applied and
\ntherefore the golden rule was used to prevent the repugnant situation. The
\nGolden Rule is an extension of the literal rule and it is only used when an
\nunjust decision has been decided. This rule has two approaches: the narrow
\napproach and the broad approach. In Mrs T. Street\u2019s case a broad approach was utilised,
\nit is only used when a word or phrase has only one meaning but exploiting the
\nsingle meaning would lead to absurdity. As a result, Mrs T. Street should be
\nfound guilty because a criminal should never benefit from their crimes as it is
\nabsurd.<\/p>\nHow influences affect the law making in Parliament<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nmaking in parliament in a positive way because they can raise public awareness
\nof an issue, for example \u201cAllOut\u201d, a pressure group who stands up for
\ninternational LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) rights, mainly
\nuses new media. They make YouTube videos, online petitions, and post content on
\nsocial media to spread the knowledge of encourage people to stand up against
\ninjustice and abuse suffered by the LGBT. Additionally, large pressure groups
\ncould have a big membership, which politicians can do nothing about, for
\nexample, the National Trust, which represents two million members, are able to
\nraise awareness of issues of importance to a large number of people. Finally,
\npressure groups have detailed knowledge of their interests to be able to put
\ntheir points and ideas forward convincingly. On the other hand, pressure groups
\ncan affect the law making in parliament in a negative way because pressure
\ngroups may not be able to able to present an objective, balanced argument and
\nmay be biased. For example, the Father 4 Justice group in essence are doing
\ntheir best to help the children of the family (the public). Additionally,
\nmembers of a group may be prepared to use violence and criminal actions to put
\ntheir views in the eye of everyone. For example, this include incidents such as
\nwhen animal activists attacked scientific laboratories that experiment on
\nanimals, and therefore could threaten the workers and their families in order
\nto put their views forward. Finally, some people who represent and support a
\npressure groups may represent only a small section of the population. However,
\nif the pressure group is influential then they can still have a chance to
\nchange some laws.<\/p>\n
\nmaking in parliament in a positive way because they develop considerable legal,
\nand political knowledge is not needed. The wording of their bills and their
\ninvestigations are very accurate and therefore this results to their
\nrecommendations being well informed. This means that problems are avoided when
\nthe law is brought into force. Also, they are an independent body, which means
\nthat the Law Commission makes sure that the all law is being kept under review,
\nand not just the areas the Government wants to put their focus on. Finally, a
\nbill is drafted to be attached to the report written to the Government. This
\ntherefore allows the bill to be based completely on the Commission\u2019s research,
\nthis results to the bill taking less time to be introduced into Parliament. On
\nthe other hand, the Law Commission can affect the law making in parliament in a
\nnegative way because a vast majority of their recommendations are not carried
\nout. This means that the Government does not have to introduce any of the Law
\nCommission\u2019s proposals. Also, the Law Commission\u2019s investigations of the law
\ncan be very time consuming, and therefore this could take them time to produce
\na report. Finally, Government does not have to consult Law Commission on changes to the law. Therefore, major
\nchanges are made without the benefit of the Law Commission’s legal knowledge
\nand extensive research. As a result this shows the Law Commissions lack of
\npower.<\/p>\n
\nparliament in a positive way because they can lead and raise public awareness,
\nwhich is imperative for the Government to consider when making legislative
\nreforms. Ultimately, the Government is answerable to the electorate, and fears
\nthe loss of the public\u2019s support because this could mean that they may lose in
\nan election. Also, the media\u2019s raises Government attention of some matters, and
\nassists the Government to know about the public\u2019s concerns and ideas. For
\nexample, after the shooting of several pupils at a school in Dunblane in 1996,
\nan anti-handgun pressure was set up and it was called Snowdrop Campaign.
\nSeveral newspapers and TV channels assisted in increasing the awareness of
\nSnowdrop Campaign in order for their beliefs to be heard by the Government and
\nthe public. This therefore allowed a legislation to ban handguns. On the other
\nhand, the media can affect the law making in parliament in a negative way
\nbecause some traditional sources of media are not neutral or equitable, such as
\nnewspapers because they can promote their own political views and other views
\nas well. For example, The Sun originally supported The Conservative Party and
\nreported favourably on the politics of the Thatcher Government. Finally,
\nnewspaper are businesses who are looking for profit, therefore this could mean
\nthat they may publish articles that will sell more copies rather than actually
\ninform the public of threats or other issues. They can easily start a public
\npanic over a matter that occurs very rarely but still manage to worry the
\npublic. For example, this occurred with the News of the World\u2019s \u201cName and
\nShame\u201d campaign.<\/p>\nHow interpretations of statutes affect the law
\nmaking in Parliament<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nof statutes can also affect the law-making in Parliament. The Literal Rule can
\naffect the law making in parliament in a positive way because the parliament\u2019s
\npower is respected and the duty of the judges in a court is to put forward the
\nlaw (made by the parliament) to the spectators attending the dispute. Also,
\nanother advantage of the literal rule could be that when you make decisions
\nbased on this rule, there can be issues with the law, so parliament can later
\npass an amending law (which is a law in process of changing by parliament). On
\nthe other hand, the media can affect the law making in parliament in a negative
\nway because words with more than one meaning can refrain from using the rule
\neffectively. Another disadvantage of a literal rule is that they presume that
\nthe form of the will be perfect. Moreover, the use of this rule can allow
\nunjust results to conclude, as it is exemplified in the case of London and
\nNorth East Railway v Berriman (1946), where the result was unfair harsh but
\naccording to the literal meaning of \u201crelaying or repairing\u201d, Mr. Merriman’s
\nwindow was not entitled to compensation.<\/p>\n
\nmaking in parliament in a positive way because It refrains unfair judgments to
\ntake place which can consequence to absurdity from the utilisation of literal
\nrule. Another advantage for the golden rule is that it opens up a better chance
\nto end up with the same outcome as the Parliament. Finally, it permits the
\ncourt to select a more suitable definition of a word or phrase in an Act. On
\nthe other hand, The Golden Rule can affect the law making in parliament in a
\nnegative way because its use is unreliable, which prevents lawyers to advocate
\ntheir clients to the best of their ability, this can as a result not give a
\nfull intel to the clients. Another disadvantage of the golden rule is that it
\ncan be viewed as oppressive due to the power being only granted to the judge on
\nhow to operate this rule. Finally, although the judges are able to escape the
\nliteral rule, they are still constrained in what they can do.<\/p>\n
\nmaking in parliament in a positive way because it is flexible as it allows the
\nlaw to be practiced as the Parliament wanted it to be used. Another advantage
\nfor Mischief Rule is that it evades the possibility of absurdity and
\nunjustness. Finally, it has been authorised by the law Commission in 1969 over
\nthe literal rule and also the golden rule. On the hand, the Mischief Rule can
\naffect the law making in parliament in a negative way because it is oppressive
\nto grant too much responsibility to unelected judges, this can be a massive
\ndrawback because in some cases, judges renew the law, which is the parliament\u2019s
\njob. Another disadvantage of Mischief rule is that it is not always simple to
\nspot the wrongdoings that the Parliament was meant to remedy. Finally, it is
\ntoo old as it was formed in the 16th <\/sup>Century and therefore
\nthis means that the purposive approach is more suitable to use.<\/p>\n
\nlaw making in parliament in a positive way because it reflects on the approach
\nused by the judges in the European Union courts. On the other hand, this might
\nbe looked down on due to the referendum vote in June 2016. Another advantage of
\nthe purposive approach is that it follows what the same actions as the
\nParliament, and also apply a legislation similarly. Finally, its use prevents
\nabsurd and unfair outcomes to occur. On the hand, the Purposive Approach can
\naffect the law making in parliament in a negative way because this gives a large
\namount of power to unelected judges which can be seen as an oppressive decision
\nby the Parliament. Moreover in some occasions, judges have renewed law
\nlegislations due to the public decisions, therefore it is not up to the judges
\nto conduct such an act but the Parliament.<\/p>\nDelegated Legislation<\/strong><\/h2>\n
By-laws<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nthe local park. In 2001 Kestley Town introduced a by-law which banned drinking
\nin public areas. By-laws are made by the local authorities to safeguard incidents
\nwithin their own areas. By-laws are usually associated with traffic control,
\nparking restrictions, or even banning alcohol in some streets. Moreover,
\nby-laws can be put forward by public companies and organisations, for instance,
\nrailway companies can ban smoking in stations or\/and on the train. By-laws are
\ncontrolled the relevant government ministers, local authorities and companies.
\nAll by-laws are approved by the relevant Government Minister. For example, the
\nby-laws formed by Hampshire County Council to regulate the employment of
\nchildren (under the Children and Young Person Act 1933) were approved by the
\nSecretary for Health. These Government Ministers make sure that every laws that
\nare made locally are looked over by people with professional knowledge of the
\nsubject.<\/p>\nStatutory Instruments<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nusing her mobile phone while driving through the local town centre. This
\nis banned by Statutory Instrument No. 2695 \u2013 The Road Vehicles Regulation 2003.
\nStatutory instruments are laws which are produced by government ministers to
\nset out on a certain area under their responsibilities. Some statutory
\ninstruments could possibly be quite brief, like making the yearly minimum wage
\nchange. On the hand, other statutory instruments may be too complex with very
\ndeveloped rules that are over-complicated to put it in an Act of Parliament.
\nStatutory instruments are controlled by Members of Parliament and Peers, this
\ncommittee looks at all the statutory instruments and gets of the House of
\nParliament to the points of consideration.<\/p>\nControl on Delegated Legislation<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nchecks from Parliament regarding the use of power within that act and if it is
\nbeing used for the right purpose. These checks are processed through the
\nfollowing ways:<\/p>\n\n
Affirmative Resolution<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nto become a law unless it has the Parliament\u2019s approval. For example, the Human
\nRights Act, Section 1 (4) allows the Secretary of State to make any kind of
\nchanges to the Act.<\/p>\nNegative Resolution<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\ninstrument becomes a law unless if parliament rejects its proposition within 40
\ndays. All members of both Houses can bring forth a motion, known as a \u2018prayer\u2019.
\nAfter that a vote and debate is carried out, therefore if either one of the
\nHouses decides to pass the motion, the statutory instrument does not become a
\nlaw. <\/p>\nSuper-Affirmative resolution procedure<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\ndelegated legislation is under the control the power of the Legislative and
\nregulatory Reform act 2006, where Parliament is given more power. The Act
\nallows to give the government ministers a high amount of power to change Acts
\nof Parliament as they wish.<\/p>\nQuestions in Parliament<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nare to be questioned by the Parliament during a debate or Question Time. This
\nprocedure of control is allowing to grant publicity to delegated legislation
\nbecause of the amount of media within the Parliament. Therefore, this can
\ninclude questions regarding a proposed regulation they intend to bring forth.<\/p>\nScrutiny Committees<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nHouse of Lords to analyse whether sections of a bill going through Parliament
\nare used appropriately and fairly. Moreover, they can carry out checks on bills
\nand they review all statutory instruments to then draw the Houses of Parliament\u2019s
\nattention towards parts which need consideration. The main reason to send back
\nstatutory instruments to Houses of Parliament is to:<\/p>\n\n
Regulations<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nto be capable of issuing regulations; regulations official in each regard and
\nspecifically appropriate in every Member State. This implies that regulations,
\nsimilar to treaties, have an impact and can be depended on by a person in a UK
\ncourt. They automatically progress toward becoming law in every Member State,
\nwhich don’t need to pass their own particular laws to provide for them. This
\nwas tested in Re Tachographs: Commission v UK (1979), where the wording of Article
\n288 was explicit, which implied that regulations were automatically law in all
\nMember State and the UK had to enforce the installation of tachographs.<\/p>\nDirectives<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nto be capable of issuing directives. Directives allow each Member State to
\nchoose how to introduce a law at its full potential to accord with directives,
\nthis allows laws to be dependable all around the European Union. Directives
\nhave been put forward in fields like: employment, health and safety, and consumer
\nlaw. However, if a Member State fails to announce a law, this can lead to
\npaying compensation to a body who has lost money due to the failure. This is
\nseen in the case of Francovich v Italian Republic (1991), where the EU state
\nwas to pay the compensation to a person who suffered loss because of the Member
\nState failing to introduce an EU directive into their national law.<\/p>\nDecisions<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nlawful mechanism which is official to the targeted. They are one of three sorts
\nof lawful instruments which are very likely to be affected under EU law which
\ncan have reasonable restricting impacts on some people. Decisions may be
\ntargeting Member States or individuals.<\/p>\nImpact of EU laws on the UK<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nStates exchanged their sovereign lawful rights to the EU. No Member State can
\ndepend on its own law when it is in conflict with EU law. This rule has been as
\na result since the UK joined the EU in 1973 and was one of the principle worries
\nof the Brexit campaigners in the 2016 referendum to leave the EU. While the UK
\nremains in the EU, the EU has supremacy over UK law. Furthermore, one of the
\nsignificant impacts of the European law to English legal system is on direct
\napplicability or direct effect. For example, the British constitution builds up
\nthat parliament is sovereign. This implies no other law in Britain that are
\nabove laws made by the government. Relative to its sovereignty, Parliament is
\nthe most elevated legislative authority in UK, but no one, except Parliament,
\ncan make law, also no court in UK can limit Parliament’s law making capacity.
\nParliament can make whatever laws it needs, and the courts must apply that law,
\nParliament’s sphere of legislation has no boundaries; it can administer on any
\nmatter of its picking (E.g. retrospective legislation) and no parliament can
\nbind a future Parliament. Consequently, Parliament can make or cancel any law
\nit chooses, and the courts must authorise it.<\/p>\nConflict<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\naltered the way English legal system approaches the rights of United Kingdom
\ncitizens. Essentially, the areas affected include those dealing with rights of
\nthe employees, female workers and children. For example, in the case of R v
\nSecretary of State for Employment ex parte Equal Opportunities Commission
\n(1994), the House of Lords found that parts of the Employment Protection Act
\n1978 were conflicting with European Court law on equal treatment for male and
\nfemale employees, because the Act gave part-time workers fewer rights than
\nfull-time workers. Another example of a conflict is when the European Court of
\nJustice stated that national courts were going to ignore any national law that
\nhad opposing ideas to European law. Therefore, it is clear that the European
\nlaw has made the English legal system to become less efficient because it
\ncannot make its own decisions without considering the legal provisions
\ndesignated by the EU laws on certain issues. Any doubt as to the primacy of
\nEuropean Court law over national law was resolved by the European Court of
\nJustice in Costa v ENEL (1964). The primacy of European Court law controls the
\ndomestic law where it is punitive in nature, therefore this led the English
\nlegal system making a defence of reliance on European Community law. <\/p>\nEvaluation<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Law-making inside of Parliament<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\npositive outcomes. The first advantage of parliamentary law-making is that it
\nis democratic, this means that MPs in the House of Commons are democratically
\nchosen to make laws. Throughout the debates on the suggested law, each MP
\nshould have the chance to express their view of his\/her components. Members of
\nthe House of Lords are not democratically elected, therefore they are not able
\nto ban or reject a bill that has been approved by the House of Commons. Another
\nadvantage of parliamentary law-making is that it is under the Government\u2019s
\ncontrol, this means that it controls parliament\u2019s timing for debates and has a
\nhigher chance of winning at each voting stage of the process, however if its
\nown MPs vote against them they may lose. Also, a government minister who
\nannounces the bill to Parliament has a considerable understanding in the field
\nof responsibility and the support of a civil service department. Finally,
\nparliamentary law-making is flexible, which means that it is not just the
\nGovernment that has the power to propose new laws, but MPs and Lords have the
\npower to do so as well. This could help when the Government has not looked over
\na certain issue, or when it does not want to be conducted into introducing a
\ndisputed legislation. An example of this could be the Marriage Act 1994, which
\npermitted marriages to be held in places apart from in churches and registry
\noffices.<\/p>\n
\nmaking law within Parliament is that the Government still has control over the
\nParliament and allows little time for private members’ bills to form. The
\nGovernment has too much power over others, due to its capability of bypassing
\nthe House of Lords by putting into effect the Parliament Acts. Another
\ndisadvantage of parliamentary law-making could be that it is very time
\nconsuming, this because of the bill which has to go through the legislative stages,
\nwhich can take months and therefore important legislations will take time to
\ncome into force. Finally, when making a bill, the people making the bill use
\nambiguous words (words that have more than one mean), and this is a
\ndisadvantage because 75% of the cases heard are about interpretations of words.<\/p>\nLaw-making outside of Parliament<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nparliament is that it does not go through a long process, and therefore can be
\nvery helpful in emergencies, this is because it does not follow the
\nParliamentary procedure, which would not be ideal in cases of emergencies.
\nAdditionally, those with law making knowledge can help form and take part to
\nlegislation, nonetheless, Parliament still has a bit of control over the
\nconstruction of the law. For example, local councils have a better knowledge of
\nthe local residents. Bristol City Council has many by-laws regarding the
\nClifton and Durdham Downs. Furthermore, there is some form of parliamentary
\ncontrol over delegated legislation. Within Parliament, statutory instruments
\nare enforced to affirmative or negative resolutions or are scrutinised by the
\nScrutiny Committee. Finally, delegated legislation is democratic to an extent,
\nthis is because government ministers are elected and they hold the responsibility
\nfor issuing statutory instruments and approving by-laws. <\/p>\n
\nParliament are made by elected Parliament members. Also, there is very little
\npublicity for the making of laws outside of Parliament, this means that a vast
\nmajority of laws that are being made are not being put out for the public to be
\naware of it. Additionally, there is no effective control, this means that many
\nof the parliamentary controls are restricted in effect. For example, not every
\nstatutory instruments are enforced to an affirmative or negative resolution,
\nand these may be ignored. Finally, law-making outside of Parliament could be
\nundemocratic to an extent, this is because delegated legislation is not debated
\nby Parliament, unless statutory instruments enforce to the affirmative
\nresolution.<\/p>\nConclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nparliamentary law-making is more appropriate than delegated legislation. This
\nis because the legislative process (which is passing a bill through the House
\nof Lords and the House of Commons, and finally getting Royal Assent) is very
\naccurate but time consuming. There are several circumstances for debates,
\namendments, and making sure that any mistakes can be rectified, this is due to
\nthe three readings and two stages in each Houses of Parliament. Whereas
\ndelegated legislation contradicts the separation of powers, this means that
\ndelegated legislation stands against the principles of separation of powers.
\nUnder this principle, there are three sectors of power: the executive, the
\nlegislature, and the judiciary.<\/p>\nBibliography<\/h2>\n
