The article argues that reforms are needed for State and Territory laws to require, wherever possible, adults to be supported to make their own decisions about research participation. State and Territory law reform is also required to clarify when, and on what basis, others may be appointed to make research participation decisions on behalf of adults with cognitive disabilities.

Patent filings are recognised as one of the measures of national innovation, and this is one measure where Australian innovators are falling short. We examined whether there may be discrete pockets of innovation in particular areas of technology where Australian researchers are making significant contributions. This study used patent filings as a measure of innovation and used clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) genome editing as a case study. We found a rich patent landscape, with filings for general methods and compositions and for specific diseases. However, the contribution by Australian applicants was small, with only four out of 519 filings.

Alcohol marketing is pervasive in television, with young people's exposure to such marketing being causally connected to harms such as early initiation to drinking and heavy drinking practices. The World Health Organization recommends that countries ban or place comprehensive restrictions on alcohol marketing. Australia has failed to heed this recommendation. This column reviews the regulation of alcohol marketing in Australia from the perspective of its capacity to protect young people from exposure to the marketing. Australia's regulation of alcohol marketing is weak, fragmented and outdated, with rules that favour the interests of the alcohol, media and sporting industries, and do not protect the public's health, particularly that of young people.</p>","PeriodicalId":45522,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Medicine","volume":"30 2","pages":"310-325"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139673226","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}

Cases referred for ethics consultation are likely to involve diverging views or conflict, or to confront the boundaries of appropriate medical practice.

With no reported litigation against a CES in Australia, we look to international experience and first principles. We consider the prospects of a claim in negligence, the most likely legal action against a CES, through application of legal principles to a hypothetical case scenario.
