A significant proportion of these initiatives are designed to mitigate the enduring adverse effects on Greece economy, environment, and society, which are the consequences of a flawed legislative process. This process has been criticized in numerous studies and reports for its bureaucratic red tape, inefficiency, fragmentation, and lack of a culture promoting better regulation. The handbooks and methodologies examined in this article originate from the law on the Executive State and were executed under the auspices of the European Commission (DG REFORM) Technical Support Action, which was implemented by Expertise France and is titled: “Support Public Administration Reform and its Digital Transformation.” Most of these initiatives have been successfully completed and implemented, while the completion of others is imminent. In conclusion, the author suggests several additional measures for implementation, which are intended to enhance the reforms that are already in place.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140615351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its purpose is to examine the extent to which the ICA protects journalists and lawyers privileges, critical constituencies in any democratic state. The ICA, passed in 2007, has remained a heavily contested legislation in the country. On the one hand, it is understood to be security minded legislation, yet, other critics have argued that it interferes with the journalist’s source privilege, and lawyer–client confidentiality. In this paper, we are concerned about whether the Act provides adequate safeguards where the subject of surveillance is a practising journalist or lawyer. Thus we ask; to what extent does the ICA provides adequate legal safeguards to lawyers and journalists? Through a qualitative textual analysis of the law, the paper determines the constitutional implications of the main provisions of the Act on whether they reflect constitutional norms that safeguard the legal privileges accorded to the professions. We note that the ICA does not provide adequate safeguards for the protection of lawyers and journalists. We, therefore, argue that ICA is a weaponized legislation meant to emasculate these two communities of practice. As such, we call for the Act’s alignment with the current broadened constitutional provisions. South Africa’s Constitutional Court has invalidated unconstitutional provisions within its surveillance and interception laws, likewise identical provisions within its neighbouring state, Zimbabwe should follow the same. Both countries share common historical, political and economic ties.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140153052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As popular discourse shifts to social media platforms, Fake News on the internet has increased drastically, generating significant costs for society. Consequently, there is a regulatory movement across the globe to mitigate fake news on these platforms. A law and economics analysis offers valuable insights towards devising an appropriate regulatory approach to tackling this issue. In economic terms, Fake News can be conceptualized as a negative externality, while Fact-Checking and Content Moderation Services may be defined as public goods. There exists a misplaced individual incentive to create fake news on social media platforms. A clear case of market failure and thus a need for state intervention can be made out. While direct state regulation of platforms is the preferred approach by regulators for mitigating fake news, this paper cautions against over-reliance on such a ‘negative state’ regime, due to censorship risks and enforcement costs. This paper recommends adoption of a multi-pronged strategy, including a statutory Pigouvian tax to internalize social costs of fake news on social media platforms within the market, by channelling resources towards promoting positive state measures to mitigate the broader effects of fake news on these platforms. This paper’s analysis is largely located in the Indian context, with references to other jurisdictions.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140025403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A significant number of them are married to a Bangladeshi citizen and their children are entitled to Bangladeshi citizenship by descent. However, these Rohingya children are not being registered as Bangladeshi citizen. As a result, a significant number of Rohingya children have become stateless. As Bangladesh is not a party to the statelessness conventions statelessness of these Rohingya children cannot be legally addressed under these conventions. This article explores the citizenship rights of these Rohingya children outside of these conventions. It argues that, although Bangladesh is not a party to the statelessness conventions it is a party to the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and other international human rights treaties under which it is obliged to grant citizenship status to the Rohingya children born to a Bangladeshi parent.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139969048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It discusses the nature of corporate vicarious liability, strict liability, and the identification doctrine and identifies the philosophical foundations of the principle of corporate failure to prevent bribery. The philosophical foundation of corporate liability emanating from the principle of the corporate offence is not based on the principles of corporate vicarious liability, strict liability or the identification doctrine. Liability attaches directly to the corporation because the rationale behind the legislation is to eliminate the culture of corporate bribery both domestically and extra-territorially. Section 7(2) affords a corporation a legal defence against its failure to prevent bribery if it can demonstrate that it had implemented adequate procedures to prevent individuals associated with it from undertaking such behaviour.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"152 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139969266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, there is a need to define a new way to explain, apply, and understand them. The purpose of the article is to carry out a theoretical and legal analysis of textualism as a theory of interpretation of legal norms. The research used such methods as analysis, deduction, induction, comparative analysis, and others. Taking the research through the prism of the doctrine of textualism in the interpretation of legal norms, the authors demonstrated that the effectiveness of this method is capable of restoring the semantic content of the text, which helps to clarify the meaning of the norms effectively and consistently. They found that the method under study could be applicable in legal practice to disclose the construction of legal norms, which multiply chances to provide accurate disclosure of the legal content of the norm. The practical value of the results lies in the identification of a new way of interpreting the norms, which will provide a future opportunity to increase the level of effective law enforcement of the current legislation.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"138 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139904088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its significance dwarfs the amount of political scrutiny which it receives. Secondary legislation can be subject to judicial review, but this may raise difficult constitutional issues. A potentially controversial ground of judicial review is that secondary legislation is contrary to the purposes of the enacting primary legislation. Examination of litigation regarding legal aid regulations shows how the courts’ view as to the purposes of such legislation can differ, revealing the essentially political choices which the courts have to make. There is however a way that will assist the courts in limiting such controversy if they find secondary legislation to be unlawful: they can order that the secondary legislation be quashed only from a future date, which would give Parliament or the executive time to address the legal defect identified. This encourages dialogue rather than conflict between the legal and executive branches of the constitution.","PeriodicalId":43737,"journal":{"name":"Statute Law Review","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139904248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
