The Hampel Committee Report: A Transatlantic Critique, Jayne W. Barnard Apr 1998

The Hampel Committee Report: A Transatlantic Critique, Jayne W. Barnard

Popular Media

To an American observer, the activities of the Cadbury, Greenbury and Hampel Committees are impressive, if only because so few lawyers seem to be involved. Unlike the US, where improvements in corporate governance can usually be traced to legislation or litigation, British efforts at self-governance offer an attractive, alternative model. The Hampel Report is disappointing, however, in three respects: the report lacks concrete models; its reliance on the AGM as a mechanism of reform is misplaced; and its failure to recognize internal monitoring programs as an essential element of good corporate governance is shortsighted.

Return Of The Chancellor's Foot?: Discretion In Permanent Resident Deportation Appeals Under The Immigration Act, Richard Haigh, Jim Smith Apr 1998

Return Of The Chancellor's Foot?: Discretion In Permanent Resident Deportation Appeals Under The Immigration Act, Richard Haigh, Jim Smith

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

This article examines recent changes to section 70 of the Immigration Act that allow the minister of immigration to deport Canadian permanent residents who are determined to be a danger to the public without proper procedural safeguards. The authors argue that much of both current theoretical literature on discretion and the history of the development of discretion within the immigration scheme are against these changes. By analyzing how discretion is employed in other, similar, public safety regimes, the authors show that the recent changes violate individual rights and will very likely create more intractable problems than those they set out …


Birds Of A Feather: Alliances And Influences On The Lamer Court 1990-1997, Peter Mccormick Apr 1998

Birds Of A Feather: Alliances And Influences On The Lamer Court 1990-1997, Peter Mccormick

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

The Supreme Court does not always speak with a single voice; for many decisions, there are judges who register disagreement with the majority's legal reasoning or even with the outcome. Are there identifiable fault lines dividing a persisting "majority" and "minority?" Are there one or more "swing vote" judges who allow the minority some share of the decisions of the Court? And, given that the coalitions are shifting rather than rigid, which pairings of judges most frequently (or most seldom) hold together through these shifts? This paper examines the divided panel decisions of the first seven years of the Lamer …


Antidiscrimination And Affirmative Action Policies: Economic Efficiency And The Constitution, Edward M. Iacobucci Apr 1998

Antidiscrimination And Affirmative Action Policies: Economic Efficiency And The Constitution, Edward M. Iacobucci

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

This article assesses the economic efficiency of race-based antidiscrimination and affirmative action policies with a view to assessing relevant Canadian and American constitutional law. The article reviews economic arguments about why antidiscrimination laws may be efficient in addressing externalities, in hastening the exit of bigoted employers from the market, and in preventing the potentially inefficient use of race as a proxy for information; affirmative action may be efficient in accounting for differential signaling costs across race. The article concludes that economic analysis supports the approach in section 15 of the Charter which generally bans discriminatory government action, but recognizes that …


Constructive Cigarette Regulation, W. Kip Viscusi Apr 1998

Constructive Cigarette Regulation, W. Kip Viscusi

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

Professor W. Kip Viscusi argues for a move away from the adversarial approach to tobacco regulation, an approach that is currently embodied in class action lawsuits and the proposed broadening of FDA regulatory power over cigarettes. In this Article, he suggests that the FDA should take a constructive role in fostering technological innovations to promote cigarette safety, in much the same way that the government currently fosters safety improvements in motor vehicles and jobs. Professor Viscusi claims that the objective of government policy should be to promote informed consumer risk taking-an approach which recognizes that adult consumers have a right …


The Seven Degrees Of Relevance: Why Should Real-World Environmental Attorneys Care Now About Sustainable Development Policy?, J.B. Ruhl Apr 1998

The Seven Degrees Of Relevance: Why Should Real-World Environmental Attorneys Care Now About Sustainable Development Policy?, J.B. Ruhl

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

This article explores the evolution of the concept of "sustainable development" through what I suggest are the "seven degrees" of relevance of legal conceptualizations: (1) translation of concept into norm; (2) uncontestability of the norm; (3) intolerance of violation of the norm; (4) demand for fulfillment of the norm; (5) translation of the norm as policy goal; (6) policy consequences based on the norm; (7) translation into hard law to apply. I suggest that, at the time of the writing (1998), sustainable development was stuck on level five.


Teen Smoking Behavior And The Regulatory Environment, Joni Hersch Apr 1998

Teen Smoking Behavior And The Regulatory Environment, Joni Hersch

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

Professor Hersch argues that most state regulations aimed at fighting teen smoking have had little or no effect. She provides evidence that despite widespread age restrictions on purchasing tobacco, most teens do not consider it difficult for minors to purchase tobacco products within their community. She also presents evidence demonstrating a strong correlation between smoking rates and perceptions about the addictive nature of smoking. These findings suggest that facilitating greater awareness of the addictive power of cigarettes could be effective in curbing teen smoking. She explores the potential for parental restrictions on limiting teen smoking, but provides indications that parents …


A "Party Satisfaction" Perspective On A Comprehensive Mediation Statute, Chris Guthrie, James Levine Apr 1998

A "Party Satisfaction" Perspective On A Comprehensive Mediation Statute, Chris Guthrie, James Levine

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

During the past fifteen years, the alternative dispute resolution movement has greatly altered the legal landscape. Courts, legislatures and administrative agencies have enacted more than 2000 laws dealing with mediation and other dispute resolution processes. The National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (NCCUSL) and the American Bar Association Section of Dispute Resolution have recently formed a unique partnership to assess whether a model or uniform mediation statute might remedy some of the problems caused by the current patchwork of often confusing and conflicting mediation laws. The task of drafting a comprehensive mediation statute poses many challenges. The drafters …
