Henry Brooke's written evidence

http://data.parliament.uk/writteneviden ... 75779.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

"In my very long experience of the law, I have never encountered any statutory scheme which has caused so much distress to so many vulnerable people"
The idea that a public body should be given a power to reconsider its decisions was discussed in the Law Commission’s 1994 report on Judicial Review and Statutory Appeals, on which I assisted when I was chairman of the Commission. However, we never envisaged that a claimant’s right of appeal against a decision that took effect immediately could not be exercised at all until such a process had been completed.

"Because the Secretary of State was exercising a discretionary power when he introduced the PIP regulations which had this effect, it seems likely that the effect of the UK Supreme Court’s decision in the Unison case would give rise to a very strong argument that the mandatory reconsideration process is unlawful, since it prohibits any access to a court while the MR process is being conducted."

I just picked this up, courtesy of a poster over at the Guardian:
The British Government has demanded total secrecy in its free trade talks with the US for a post-Brexit deal, i can reveal. Liam Fox’s Department for International Trade (DIT) has quietly opened preliminary discussions with a team of American officials. Both sides have agreed that their talks will be classified as either “sensitive” or “confidential”, and information will be shared only among approved individuals. Nothing can be released for four years after talks are concluded, unless both sides waive the secrecy rule, according to documents seen by i.

The approach will prove controversial for parliamentary scrutiny of British-American trade talks, as well as in policy areas such as food safety standards and animal welfare.

Government abolishes MR for ESA and PIP
Inclusion London is delighted that the government has decided to abolish Mandatory Reconsideration for ESA and PIP. MR creates an extra barrier to justice that acts as a rubber stamping exercise of the original assessment decision, meanwhile delaying access to benefits that Disabled people have been wrongly and unfairly denied. This extra hurdle discourages people from pursuing their case against wrongful assessment decisions, leading them to fall out of the benefits system and into destitution.

A Freedom Of Information request revealed that the DWP were working to a target by which 80% of MR decisions needed to uphold the original decision (1), yet the statistics for decisions overturned at appeal stage has consistently been over 60% for both ESA and PIP.
The idea that 80% of suspects are guilty is an interesting target . I wonder who dreamt it up ?

Maybe being generally dismissed as inadequate and incompetent gives her the space to stagger towards a deal that does the least harm to jobs and the economy and the most good for national cohesion: a deal that will be flawed and unsatisfactory to everyone, but all the same a deal – one that would maybe be harder, if not impossible, to reach if it was approached in a straight line.

Morning all.

The Committee for Exiting the EU have published the "sector analyses" (cough)...here's a few quotes so far.
39 sectoral reports on Brexit published. http://www.parliament.uk/business/commi ... lications/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; … Have flipped through the aerospace one. It's entirely descriptive. Zero analysis of Brexit impact.

Chemicals one also totally descriptive, no description of what impact Brexit would have on e.g. access to EU regulatory system

Same for Technology (My sector). Zero actual analysis. Could have got it all from Wikipedia and Google.
So fairly useless then.

How is David Davis still in his job?

/why-industry-leader-have-no-need-to-panic-over-jeremy-corbyn-john-mcdonnell

---------------------------------------------------------------------

From the Mainlymacro --

""“” What has this got to do with a future Labour government? Christine Berry presents a comprehensive account of who is shaping future Labour policy. It contains the following paragraph.

“John McDonnell’s Council of Economic Advisors, set up during the first days of the leadership, was a valiant effort to give the party’s economic policy some heavyweight academic backing. But many of its members were not natural Corbyn supporters, and ran alarmed from the public ridicule heaped on the leadership in the early days – resulting in the Council being largely disbanded. Academic input now seems to be ad hoc rather than systematised.”

That is not how it happened. It is true that some of us had to suffer some public ridicule when we joined, but that just reflected badly on those doing the ridiculing. The breakup of the Council was inevitable after the EU referendum. It is hard for any group of serious economists to publicly advise in such a forum any political party that appears to support a Brexit policy that is doing (see Chris Giles here) so much damage and could do much more.””

Mental Health in England: Jeremy Hunt vs Ralf Little

Full Fact
The mental health data we have is poor and limited. Despite years of politicians of different parties emphasising the importance of mental health, it turns out that no one really knows what they are talking about. The government’s own plan talked about a ‘black hole’ of data, which is only beginning to be tackled.
My bold.

In a properly funded health service where stories of people having to travel hundreds of miles for mental health treatment hardly ever hit the headlines, you wouldn't really need to spend money collecting suitable data. The NHS Trust concerned in such a case would get ticked off because they'd made a cock-up, or it would be accepted to have arisen in exceptional circumstances.
It's because the services are strapped for cash that these blame allocation exercises arise.

(cJA edit)

All thirty-nine of the written evidence, 'Sectoral Reports', on the Department for Exiting the European Union Sectoral Analyses inquiry publications page linked below has the following piece of information, all numbered 2. All the same.
2. As the Government has already made clear, it is not the case that 58 sectoral impact assessments exist. The Government’s sectoral analysis is a wide mix of qualitative and quantitative analysis contained in a range of documents developed at different times since the referendum. This report brings together information about the sector in a way that is accessible and informative. Some reports aggregate some sectors in order to either avoid repetition of information or because of the strong interlinkages between some of these sectors.

Electricity and Renewables Sector Report

6. Electricity is a fundamental part of modern society. Residential and industrial
users rely on its use to ensure basic and vital needs such as lighting, heating or
refrigeration are met on a daily basis. ONS data show that every sector in the
economy depends on the availability of electricity to operate. As the amount of
energy that can be stored is limited at present, demand and supply for electricity
have to match in real time, making electricity markets particularly complex. Failures
in the effective operation of electricity markets expose the economy to the risk of
blackouts, which have detrimental effects in the affected areas. Ensuring security of
supply in the electricity sector is therefore a key objective of governments, together
with ensuring electricity is affordable for all consumers and sourced from clean
technologies as much as possible.

They usually do - at the public expense. Then they lose the appeal. So it's all worthwhile.


PS Edited to add -

Not knowing the ins and outs of the law, though, I don't know if this is "appealable"- the article doesn't say. Does anyone here know, please?
