Скачать или смотреть Constitutional Reform in the UK: A Conference on the Brown Commission Report (Part Two) P3

Panel Three: "Institutional Modes of Protection and Fulfilment of Social Rights"
The Brown Commission report recommends that there should be "new, constitutionally protected social rights" that "reflect the current shared understanding of the minimum standards and public services that a British citizen should be guaranteed". In particular, the report proposes four new social rights in the areas of health, schooling, poverty and housing. This panel will consider the legal form and justiciability of these social rights, as well as other forms of institutional engagement with such rights. Panellists are encouraged to consider how these social rights might be protected within the British Constitution, including as regards the devolved nations, and the institutional mechanisms for delivering and implementing such rights.
