THE UNITED KINGDOM The European Court of Human Rights has today notified in writing a judgment [ fn ] in the case of Peck v. the United Kingdom (application no. 44647/98). The Court held unanimously that there had been: Under Article 41 (just satisfaction) of the Convention, the Court awarded the applicant 11,800 euros (EUR) for non-pecuniary damage and EUR 18,075 for costs and expenses. (The judgment is available only in English.) 1. Principal facts The applicant, Geoffrey Dennis Peck, is a United Kingdom national, who was born in 1955 and lives in Essex. On the evening of 20 August 1995, at a time when he was suffering from depression, Mr Peck walked alone down Brentwood High Street, with a kitchen knife in his hand, and attempted suicide by cutting his wrists. He was unaware that he had been filmed by a closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera installed by Brentwood Borough Council. The CCTV footage did not show the applicant cutting his wrists; the operator was solely alerted to an individual in possession of a knife. The police were notified and arrived at the scene, where they took the knife, gave the applicant medical assistance and brought him to the police station, where he was detained under the Mental Health Act 1983. He was examined and treated by a doctor, after which he was released without charge and taken home by police officers.

Media: Disability And The Media In The United Kingdom media Disability and the media in the united kingdom. By Simon Minty (simonminty@compuserve.com). Disabled people get involved with http://www.disabilityworld.org/April-May2000/Media/MediaUK.htm
Extractions: Disabled people get involved with the media for a variety of reasons; because they are of a creative or journalistic nature; to improve the accuracy in portrayal or because they just want to show off in front of an audience. Whatever the reason, disability arts and the media in the UK have a firm base from which to flourish. However, there is a long way to go until disabled people will be seen regularly in the media as whole human beings. Once the illusions of pity, of bravery and the medical elements are reduced to sensible proportions, then the situation will improve. In the UK, there is some debate as to the best approach of harmonising disability arts and the media, to achieve a mutually beneficial collaboration. Differences of opinion are not restricted to media representatives and disabled people but also within disabled groups themselves. The media is a notoriously difficult and agenda driven industry. I have lost count of the times I have read an interview with a non-disabled actor who explains how the work is scarce, the training hard and the rejections painful and plentiful. With a disabled actor, he or she often has the additional perceived disadvantage of difference that, supposedly, the audience will not be able to mentally accommodate. I say 'supposedly', as I think it is often the writer, producer or director who have the problem of accommodating. Inclusion vs. Ghettoisation

Extractions: Version NO.073 AUSTRALIA-UNITED KINGDOM DOUBLE TAXATION TREATY The Treasurer and the British High Commissioner today signed a new double tax treaty (the new Treaty) between Australia and the United Kingdom replacing the existing Agreement and amending Protocol signed in 1967 and 1980 respectively. The new Treaty will substantially reduce the withholding tax on certain dividend, interest and royalty payments in line with outcomes achieved in the recent amending Protocol to the United States treaty. This will provide long term benefits for business, making it cheaper for Australian based business to obtain intellectual property, equity and finance for expansion. It will also remove obstacles currently inhibiting Australian corporate expansion offshore. This reflects the close economic relations between Australia and the United Kingdom (UK). Australia's investment and trade relationship with the UK is the largest Australia has with any European country. Overall, the UK is Australia's second largest source of foreign investment, second largest destination for Australian investment abroad, third largest trading partner, and sixth largest merchandise trading partner. This is a significant step in facilitating a competitive and modern tax treaty network for Australian companies. A modernised Australia-UK treaty is important for future economic relations given the international economic significance of the UK and the magnitude of Australia-UK investment and trade relationships.

NICE has said that they are clinically superior and highly cost-effective and this positive recommendation will bring the UK one step closer to diffusing the hepatitis C timebomb.

British Media Landscape The British media landscape. 3. Digital Services Arguably, the UK has embraced media digitisation more completely than any other country except Japan. http://www.ejc.nl/jr/emland/uk.html
Extractions: Perhaps the major characteristic of the written press in the UK is the existence of a large national newspaper sector divided into 14 daily and 15 Sunday titles. The numbers have increased recently through the inclusion of papers published and mainly distributed in Scotland, the London Evening Standard and sports papers, and the establishment of new titles. About 60 per cent of people in the UK read a national daily paper, and about 70 per cent a national Sunday. The total sales of national daily newspapers are nearly 14 million, and of national Sundays nearly 15 million. These figures are well below peaks reached in the late 1950s, and despite the expansion of both sectors, national newspaper reading continues to be in decline. This underlying is trend is masked to some extent by price discounting and even free distribution. All but for four titles are also sold outside the UK in the Republic of Ireland.
