You might be able to supply this assistance, and they willing to reimburse you for it. Nevertheless, you would be entitled to ignore their appeal and pass by on the other side. This striking rule has attracted the attention of legal theorists, especially proponents and opponents of the broadly liberal tradition. The rule arguably shows the commitment of the common law—or at least the part of the law governing private individuals—to a strong conception of individual freedom or autonomy in interpersonal relations. Indeed, for some theorists influenced by Kant’s legal philosophy, the rule shows that private individuals are essentially independent of each other. But what if, in some country subject to ‘the good old common law’, you ran a business that provided certain goods, services, or facilities to the public—an inn offering meals and rooms for the night, or a railway with a regular passenger service, or even a forge for fixing broken horseshoes? Here the law would not allow you to ignore a stranger who arrived at your premises seeking your help and willing to reimburse you. You would be liable for damages if you turned them away without good reason. This striking rule has attracted less theoretical attention, but is one key piece of evidence Hanoch Dagan discusses in chapter five of his Liberal Theory of Property. Dagan seeks to articulate a liberal theory of private law in general, and of property law in particular, which is more persuasive than the Kantian theory. According to Dagan, private individuals are autonomous or self-determining. But they are not merely independent of each other; rather they stand in a more generous sort of relation. Each person is obliged to accommodate each other’s self-determination—which may mean taking active steps to help. Dagan argues that this principle explains, among other things,","PeriodicalId":88025,"journal":{"name":"King's law journal : KLJ","volume":"77 1","pages":"43 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78887052","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}

While the EU and UK pioneered the development of Open Banking, Australia has adopted it and applied the concept of consumer data portability far more broadly. Its Consumer Data Right (CDR) regime, introduced in 2019, is unique in its intention to implement economy-wide data sharing across banking, energy, telecommunications, pensions, insurance, groceries, health, education, and other sectors. Although the legal frameworks in all three jurisdictions are in a state of flux, we analyse five lessons Europe can learn from Australia’s experience with its CDR regime to date and suggest a sixth lesson. We argue for nuanced regulation which promotes the benefits, while minimising the risks, of data sharing.","PeriodicalId":88025,"journal":{"name":"King's law journal : KLJ","volume":"14 1","pages":"61 - 91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88772281","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}

There is an assumption that, guided by a skilled mediator, they can do so without lawyer assistance. Indeed, the presence of lawyers tends to be discouraged, deemed not conducive to the informality and the non-adversarial character of mediation. Yet in a mediation there is often an imbalance of power and inequality of arms and fundamental rights can be at issue. One such area is special educational needs (SEN), applicable to nearly 1.5 million children in England, a field where disputes between families and local authorities are common. This article examines the case for and against lawyer involvement in mediations of this kind and considers what might be the most appropriate model of such involvement.","PeriodicalId":88025,"journal":{"name":"King's law journal : KLJ","volume":"85 1","pages":"414 - 436"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73456950","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}

These include corporate codes, global framework agreements, judicial decisions, the OECD Guidelines on Multinational Enterprises, and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, as well as bilateral and pluri-lateral free trade agreements and elsewhere. There is no shortage now of commitments to the ILO despite the employer generated controversy about its standards, though it cannot be said that the commitment is reflected in compliance. As labour standards continue to erode globally, the ILO provides much needed decoration in a liberal economic climate. In this article it is proposed with some scepticism to examine yet another frontier for ILO standards as the organisation passes its centenary. This is the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) concluded in 2020 to deal with the relationship between the EU and the UK after Brexit.
