The Nature of Inquisitorial Processes in Administrative Regimes
Author: Laverne Jacobs
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317023315
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
’Inquisitorial processes’ refers to the inquiry powers of administrative governance and this book examines the use of these powers in administrative law across seven jurisdictions. The book brings together recent developments in mixed inquisitorial-adversarial administrative decision-making on a hitherto neglected area of comparative administrative process and institutional design. Reaching important conclusions about their own jurisdictions and raising questions which may be explored in others, the book's chapters are comparative. They explore the terminology and scope of the concept of inquisitorial process, justifications for the use of inquiry powers, the effectiveness of inquisitorial processes and the implications of the adoption of such powers. The book will set in motion continued dialogue about the inherent challenges of balancing policy goals, fairness, resources and institutional design within administrative law decision-making by offering theoretical, practical and empirical analyses. This will be a valuable book to government policy-makers, administrative law decision-makers, lawyers and academics.

Tribunals for Users
Author: Andrew Peter Leggatt
Publisher: Stationery Office Books (TSO)
ISBN: 9780117027312
Category : Administrative courts
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
This review of tribunals, the first for 44 years, examines the 70 different administrative tribunals in England and Wales. They deal with over a million cases a year, employ over 3500 people, and have become a substantial part of the system of justice. Yet, of the 70, only 20 each hear more than 500 cases a year; others are defunct; the quality of their work is variable; and cases take too long. The review has as its four main objectives: (1) to make the 70 tribunals into one Tribunals Service; (2) to make the tribunals independent of their sponsoring departments; (3) to improve the training of chairmen and members in the interpersonal skills required; (4) to enable unrepresented users to participate effectively and without apprehension in tribunal proceedings. The new Tribunals Service would provide a coherence essential if tribunals are to acquire a collective standing to match that of the court system. But there is also a basic need for a change in culture, with a greater focus on the users' needs, and swifter administration based on informality, simplicity, efficiency and proportionality. Without this culture change, the Review questions how tribunals can, as presently administered, find the independence, coherence, economies of scale, consistency, professionalism or IT, to which users are entitled.
