Statutory provision is legal care that has to be available by law. This law states that all children between the ages of 5-16 should be educated. Children aged 3-4 also have an entitlement to education/childcare. 2 year olds can also be eligible in some cases however they will receive fewer hours. School is an example of statutory care.…
Mashaw states in his article that “agencies are responsible for implementing statutes, [not for] judicial decisions, which… are directed to reviewing courts” (2007, p. 903). Institutions often use different interpretive methodologies that can lead to the paradox, when judging rejects administration’s interpretation. Agency-centered and court-centered approach means the system primary one source’s methods in he decision making process. APA can be treated as a compromise because it combines the work of two types of institutions in some of its sections. For example, courts and agencies intersect in the section 556 “Hearings…”.…
Firstly, statutory provision consists of services legally required by statute (Dictionary.com, 2016), such as the NHS, Gwynedd Social Services and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (class notes, 2016). On the other hand, voluntary provision refers to non-profit, voluntary organisations that offer optional services to the public (Merriam-Webster, 2016), and some examples include the NSPCC, RVS and Age Cymru (class notes, 2016). Lastly, private provision involves private, independent services that function for profit (Oxford Dictionaries, 2016), such as the Royal Mail or Aba Care (class notes, 2016).…
The Legislative power is responsible for making laws. Only they can, no other branch or power can. They can’t make any law they want though. There has to be some restrictions. The laws have to benefit the public and freedoms have to be looked out for. Taxes can’t be raised on property without the consent of the people. If anybody tries to impose a law without right or discussion from the people they will be punished. People don’t have to follow the law if it wasn’t created by the Legislative power,but instead a third party. The Legislative branch has to look out and protect the people when it comes to making laws. They have to look after…

Statutory law comes into existence when a legislature passes a statute. This statute is then included in the federal code of laws or the relevant state code of laws. Common laws are the rules of law announced in court decisions. These rules include interpretations of constitutional provisions, of statutes enacted by legislatures, and of regulations created by administrative agencies. If there is a conflict, common law or previously decided cases will take precedence.…
Since the Engineers’ Case 1920, the Australian High Court has interpreted the Constitution using Literalism. This is based on the belief that the Constitution is a statute and that it should be interpreted in its “natural and ordinary meaning” . The decision in the Engineer’s Case also removed the “implied immunity of instrumental” and “reserved State powers”. In doing so, the Engineers’ Case started the modern foundation for the creation of a true nation, seeing the Constitution as merely a contractual obligation between the States was an outdated belief and there was a new understanding of the meaning of federalism . The High Court also adopted the literalist/legalistic approach through the Engineers’ Case . In creating the Constitution, the government has set out the law through framing the Constitution in words, and the words of the Constitution are binding . The Court’s duty when there is a binding text is to interpret the meaning of the wordas by giving the literal words legal meanings because they are not at liberty to re-construct a textually binding Act, especially the Constitution .The failing of the literalist/legalist approach is that usually the issue being decided from the text does not usually have a rigid and limited meaning .…

The Supreme Court has expressed an interest “that Congress be able to legislate against a background of clear interpretive rules, so that it may know the effect of the language it adopts.” This report identifies and describes some of the more important rules and conventions of interpretation that the Court applies. Although this report focuses primarily on the Court’s methodology in construing statutory text, the Court’s approach to reliance on legislative history are also briefly described. In analyzing a statute’s text, the Court is guided by the basic principle that a statute should be read as a harmonious whole, with its separate parts being interpreted within their broader statutory context in a manner that furthers statutory purpose. The various canons of interpretation and presumptions as to substantive results are usually subordinated to interpretations that further a clearly expressed congressional purpose. The Court frequently relies on “canons” of construction to draw inferences about the meaning of statutory language. For example, in considering the meaning of particular words and phrases, the Court distinguishes between terms of art that may have specialized meanings and other words that are ordinarily given a dictionary definition. Other canons direct that all words of a statute be given effect if possible, that a term used more than once in a statute should ordinarily be given the same meaning throughout, and that specific statutory language ordinarily trumps conflicting general language. “Ordinarily” is a necessary caveat, since any of these “canons” gives way if context reveals an evident contrary meaning. Not infrequently the Court stacks the deck, and subordinates the general, linguistic canons of statutory…
It usually may be referred to as Lord Tenterdens rule or the ‘rule in the Archbishops case’ as it was first applied by Lord Tenterden in the Archbishop of Canterbury case in 1596. ‘It’s a variant of noscitur a sociis rule and literally translates to ‘of like kind. When general words follow specific words the general word is construed to embrace only those things whose nature is similar to those referred by specific words.…
The characterization of branches of law traditionally begins with constitutional law, which serves as a basis for other branches. Constitutional law regulates in general terms all legal relationships concerned with the state and law (separation of powers, essential features of the state, legislation). Constitutional law regulates the form of the public order and the administrative division of the territory; the status and role of the holder of the highest public authority, human rights; the primary elements of the public system (such as the parliament), their function, legal manner, structure, competence, and the bases and procedure of their formation (for example election procedure), as well as relations with the other elements of the public system (like the local government).…
