The Committee's report welcomes the publication of the draft Bill (Cm. 5843, ISBN 0101584326) in June 2003, but states that civil contingencies legislation should have been introduced in the current Parliament (as recommended by an earlier Committee report (HCP 518, session 2001-02; ISBN 021500468X). Findings include the need for: the Government to explain why it proposes to create statutory civil protection obligations for local authorities and emergency services but not for itself or regional bodies; clarification of the emergency powers provisions to clearly establish safeguards against misuse of these powers; and further discussion on the provision preventing any special legislative measures being struck down by a court due to incompatibility with the Human Rights Act. The Committee also notes that, although it would not wish the Bill to be delayed any further, insufficient time has been allowed for the public consultation on the draft Bill, and the pre-legislative scrutiny process, to be conducted by a specially appointed Joint Committee, is also having to work to a very tight deadline.

The draft Civil Contingencies Bill (Cm. 5843, ISBN 0101584326), published by the Government in June 2003, contains a range of measures to modernise Britain's civil protection laws in order to strengthen the powers available to government to deal with serious emergencies. This is part of the Government's wider package of measures to improve the country's resilience to 'disruptive challenge' which is defined as an emergency presenting a serious threat to human welfare; the environment; political, administrative or economic stability; or UK security, such as war, armed conflict and terrorism. This report examines various aspects of the draft Bill including problems of ambiguity in definitions, human rights issues, constitutional matters, resource implications, audit and management issues. The Committee raises a number of concerns, particularly with regards to human rights and civil liberties issues, and calls for clarification of the currently broad definitions of 'emergency' and 'serious', in order to provide adequate safeguards against misuse of emergency powers.

Recent disturbing events, namely: the fuel strikes of 2000; the catastrophic terrorist attacks of 2001; the threat of further attack through chemical and biological weapons; the foot and mouth outbreak of 2001; and climate change with its associated risks of floods and drought; have rendered a more comprehensive approach to risk and resilience within the United Kingdom essential. This book provides a detailed exploration of the Civil Contingencies Act 2004 and its supporting documentation. It describes and analyses recent changes by providing a full commentary on all parts of the Act. Part I covers the planning aspects and Part II explores the more reactive and controversial regulations.

The Committees report examines parliamentary scrutiny of legislation, focusing on the process for dealing with primary legislation (i.e. the scrutiny of parliamentary bills). This examination is carried out in the light of the Rippon Commission report on the topic (Making the Law produced by the Hansard Society Commission on the Legislative Process) which was published in 1992. Topics discussed include the mechanisms for pre-legislative and post-legislative scrutiny, the growth of legislation, the dissemination of information and ways of gauging public opinion through consultation. Conclusions drawn by the Committee include concern over the growth in the number and complexity of bills being presented to Parliament without adequate expansion in the capacity to deliver effective scrutiny. The report contains a number of proposals designed to help engender a culture shift away from this unsustainable volume of legislation, towards a culture of justification which encourages government to adopt a more disciplined approach to the introduction of bills based on the objective of effectiveness rather than quantity.

The Joint Committee scrutinised the Home Office's draft Detention of Terrorist Suspects (Temporary Extension) Bills, which could be enacted urgently if it ever became necessary to extend to 28 days the maximum period for which the police could apply to a High Court judge detain terrorist suspects before charging them. The Committee agrees with the Government's objective, but does not accept the Government's proposals for achieving the objective. When provisions of this kind needed to be introduced after individuals had been arrested; it would be almost impossible to give Parliament the information it would need to scrutinise the legislation adequately without putting at risk a suspect's right to have a fair trial. In addition there is a risk that, if the provision was required in a period of parliamentary recess or dissolution, legislation could not be introduced in time, or at all. The Committee recommends, instead, the introduction of legislation to empower the Secretary of State to make an executive order (with the agreement of the Attorney General and subject to rigorous safeguards), that would temporarily extend the maximum period available for pre-charge detention to 28 days. There would have to be an independent review of the case for making such an order. The Director of Public Prosecutions would continue to be responsible for applications to a High Court judge in individual cases. The Secretary of State would be accountable to Parliament for the decision once there was no longer any risk of prejudicing judicial proceedings.
