Modern government has become increasingly complex and functions through many different agencies. As well as having its own area of responsibility, each agency is also part of the network that comprises the three branches of government: the legislature, the executive and the judiciary. While the doctrine of separation of powers dictates that each of these three branches must remain distinct, the reality is that the way in which one government agency interprets and carries out its functions may have an impact on the way other agencies operate, and on the delivery of services to the public. Government bodies may, and often do, seek the advice of lawyers on matters within their areas of administration. A government agency may have its own division which provides it with legal advice, or it may seek the advice of Crown Law Officers, such as the Crown Solicitor, the Solicitor General and the Crown Advocate, or may request the legal opinion of a private lawyer. That advice, for example, may be in relation to specific litigation, or may be more general advice concerning the operation of a statute administered by that agency or under which that agency operates. In past years, virtually all legal advice obtained by government agencies was provided by the Crown Solicitor or the Law Officers. In recent times, however, changes in government policy have increased the opportunity for government departments and agencies to receive legal advice from a wider range of sources, including government legal advisers and private practitioners. This expanding category of legal advisers to government agencies could result in different agencies receiving legal advice on the same matters from separate advisers.

Behind every government there is an impressive team of hard-working lawyers. In Australia, the Solicitor-General leads that team. A former Attorney-General once said, 'The Solicitor-General is next to the High Court and God.' And yet the role of government lawyers in Australia, and specifically the Solicitor-General as the most senior of government lawyers, is under-theorised and under-studied. The Role of the Solicitor-General: Negotiating Law, Politics and the Public Interest goes behind the scenes of government – drawing from interviews with over 45 government and judicial officials – to uncover the history, theory and practice of the Australian Solicitor-General. The analysis reveals a role that is of fundamental constitutional importance to ensuring both the legality and the integrity of government action, thus contributing to the achievement of rule-of-law ideals. The Solicitor-General also works to defend government action and prosecute government policies in the court, and thus performs an important role as messenger between the political and judicial branches of government. But the Solicitor-General's position, as both an internal integrity check on government and an external warrior for government, gives rise to competing pressures: between the law, politics and the public interest. The office of the Solicitor-General in Australia has evolved many characteristics across the almost two centuries of its history in an attempt to navigate these tensions. These pressures are not unique to the Australian context. The understanding of the Australian position provided by this book is informed by, and will inform, comparative analysis of the role of government lawyers across the world.

This White Paper sets out the Government's proposals for reforming the regulation and delivery of legal services in England and Wales, with the aim of creating a simplified, more consistent and accountable regulatory framework which better meets the needs of consumers. The White Paper follows on from a consultation paper issued in March 2004 and draws on the recommendations of the Clementi review published in December 2004 (further details of both documents can be found at http://www.legal-services-review.org.uk/content/pubs.htm). Proposals include: the creation of a new independent Legal Services Board to oversee the regulatory system with statutory powers; a system of front line regulators to carry out day-to-day regulation, including existing professional bodies such as the Bar Council and the Law Society; the establishment of a new single independent body to investigate complaints called the Office for Legal Complaints (OLC); and the development of alternative business structures to provide legal and certain other services for different consumers, with the aim of promoting competition and innovation within the sector.

In recent years, controversy has surrounded the role of top government lawyers in the United States and the United Kingdom. Allegations of bad lawyering and bad ethics in public office over the ’torture memos’ in the United States and the political pressure placed on the Attorney-General in the United Kingdom to approve the legality of the Iraq war, have seen these relatively obscure group of government lawyers thrust into the public debate. Unlike its Anglo-American contemporaries, Australia’s chief legal adviser, the Solicitor-General, has remained largely out of the public eye. This collection provides a rare and overdue insight into a fundamental public institution in all Australian jurisdictions. It provides a historical, theoretical, practical and comparative perspective of this little known, but vitally important, office at a time when the transparency and accountability of government has taken on an increased significance. Of interest to anyone interested in the integrity of government, the book will be particularly useful to government, political parties and the academy. It will also be a valuable reference work to those working towards a redefinition of the role of top government legal advisors.

European Convention on Human Rights – Article 10 – Freedom of expression 1. Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises. 2. The exercise of these freedoms, since it carries with it duties and responsibilities, may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary. In the context of an effective democracy and respect for human rights mentioned in the Preamble to the European Convention on Human Rights, freedom of expression is not only important in its own right, but it also plays a central part in the protection of other rights under the Convention. Without a broad guarantee of the right to freedom of expression protected by independent and impartial courts, there is no free country, there is no democracy. This general proposition is undeniable. This handbook is a practical tool for legal professionals from Council of Europe member states who wish to strengthen their skills in applying the European Convention on Human Rights and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in their daily work.

The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in late 2002 and 2003 challenged the global public health community to confront a novel epidemic that spread rapidly from its origins in southern China until it had reached more than 25 other countries within a matter of months. In addition to the number of patients infected with the SARS virus, the disease had profound economic and political repercussions in many of the affected regions. Recent reports of isolated new SARS cases and a fear that the disease could reemerge and spread have put public health officials on high alert for any indications of possible new outbreaks. This report examines the response to SARS by public health systems in individual countries, the biology of the SARS coronavirus and related coronaviruses in animals, the economic and political fallout of the SARS epidemic, quarantine law and other public health measures that apply to combating infectious diseases, and the role of international organizations and scientific cooperation in halting the spread of SARS. The report provides an illuminating survey of findings from the epidemic, along with an assessment of what might be needed in order to contain any future outbreaks of SARS or other emerging infections.
