Corresponded for years with disgraced financier A Beacon resident who is a well-known museum director resigned his position on Tuesday (Feb. 3) at the School of Visual Arts in New York City following the release of his correspondence over many years with Jeffrey Epstein. The emails between David Ross and Epstein, a financier who killed himself in jail in 2019 while facing federal sex trafficking charges, were among 3 million pages, 180,000 images and 2,000 videos released on Jan. 30 by the U.S. Department of Justice. The emails between the two men were first reported by ARTnews. Ross, who is the spouse of Peggy Ross, a former Beacon City Council member, was named chair of SVA's MFA Art Practice program in 2009. He had previously been director of the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Ross has long been active in the Beacon art scene. Five years ago, on an episode of the podcast Beaconites, he discussed the pandemic's effect on the art world and recalled an attempt to turn Beacon's historic brick buildings into art repositories. Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 in Florida to felony charges of procuring a child for prostitution and soliciting a prostitute. He served 13 months in jail, with work release. Epstein had many powerful friends, including President Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton, who agreed on Monday (Feb. 2) to testify before the House Oversight Committee about their relationship. Elon Musk, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Richard Branson, Steve Bannon, Peter Attia and Steve Tisch, co-owner of the New York Giants, also knew Epstein. There is no evidence in the files of criminal wrongdoing by Ross. In a statement to The Current, he wrote: "The fact of the matter is that I continued to believe that his troubles were a function of his friendship with former President Clinton, and foolishly I continued to try to show friendship, until the truth of his crimes became apparent to me." In a longer statement to ARTnews, Ross said he met Epstein in the mid-1990s, when Ross was director of the Whitney. "I knew him as a wealthy patron and a collector, and it was part of my job to befriend people who had the capacity and interest in supporting the museum," Ross said. After Epstein was jailed in 2008, Ross said: "I emailed him to find out what the story was After Epstein was jailed in 2008, Ross said: "I emailed him to find out what the story was because this did not seem like the person I thought I knew. … He told me that he had been the subject of a political frame-up because of his support of former President Clinton. At the time, I believed he was telling me the truth." Ross continued, according to ARTnews: "When, years later, I read that he was being investigated again on the same charges, I reached out to him to show support. That was a terrible mistake of judgment. When the reality of his crimes became clear, I was mortified and remain ashamed that I fell for his lies. "Like many he supported with arts and education patronage, I profoundly regret that I was taken in by his story. I continue to be appalled by his crimes and remain deeply concerned for its many victims." The correspondence between Ross and Epstein was friendly. On July 22, 2009, the day Epstein was released from jail, Ross emailed Epstein "a welcome home! Glad the nightmare is over, Jeffrey. … It was an undeserved punishment foisted upon you by jealous creeps." In another email exchange, from October 2009, Epstein suggested he might fund an exhibit with images of minors; he suggested Statutory as the title. "Girls and boys ages 14-25 … where they look nothing like their true ages. Juvenile mug shots, Photoshop, makeup. Some people go to prison because they can't tell [their] true age. Controversial, fun. Maybe it should be a webpage, with hits tallied," Epstein wrote to Ross. "You are incredible," Ross replied. "This would be a very powerful and freaky book. Do y...

One man fired 16 shots at the person accused of victimizing his 13-year-old daughter. The other allegedly used a silencer to make sure no one heard the shots that killed his ex-wife. Both are charged with murder. Both have defense attorneys preparing for trial. And both cases raise fundamental questions about what the law allows.Aaron Spencer found his daughter in Michael Fosler's truck at 1 AM — three months after Fosler posted bond on 43 felony charges for alleged crimes against her. Spencer rammed the truck and killed Fosler. Prosecutors say he'd been planning it for months. The defense says a man out on bond allegedly violated a no-contact order and took a child victim in the middle of the night. Under Arkansas law, justification is something the prosecution must disprove beyond a reasonable doubt.Dr. Michael McKee allegedly killed his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer while their children slept down the hall. The indictment says he used a suppressor. But prosecutors still haven't explained how he entered the home with no forced entry. There's no disclosed motive. No documented conflict in the years since the divorce. McKee gave police an alibi that didn't hold up — he only invoked silence after the arrest.Defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes both cases: the prosecution's evidence, the defense strategies, and what each jury will have to decide. For Spencer, it's whether prosecutors can disprove justification. For McKee, it's whether the gaps in the case create reasonable doubt against evidence that includes an alleged suppressor.#AaronSpencer #MichaelMcKee #MichaelFosler #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #BobMotta #HiddenKillers #DefenseStrategy #MurderTrial #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Redundancies are one of the most sensitive and high-risk moments in the life of any organisation. When they are mishandled, the consequences can be profound - from reputational damage and industrial action to long-term impacts on trust, morale and employer brand. In this episode of The HR Room Podcast, Dave and Mary are joined by employment law specialist Adrian Twomey, Partner at Jacob & Twomey Solicitors, to unpack what happens when redundancies go wrong. Using a recent high-profile Irish case as a starting point, they explore the legal obligations, human realities and organisational risks involved in collective redundancies. Together, they discuss why empathy matters as much as compliance, how consultation processes shape outcomes, and what HR leaders and managers can do to avoid the worst-case scenario - including strike action, reputational harm and unfair dismissal claims. Guest • Adrian Twomey –Partner, Jacob & Twomey Solicitors Topics include: • Why redundancies are one of the toughest moments for any organisation • What went wrong in the recent Covalen case and what HR leaders can learn from it • Statutory vs enhanced redundancy payments - expectations and realities • What a “good” consultation process really looks like in practice • The legal requirements under collective redundancy legislation • Common risks: unfair dismissal, discrimination claims and reputational damage • The impact of redundancies on morale, trust and organisational culture • Managing anger, fear and resistance during consultation • Supporting managers who must deliver difficult messages • Why empathy, transparency and professionalism are critical to outcomes • How organisations can recover their employer brand after redundancies Useful Links & Resources • Irish Times article on the Covalen redundancy case • Protection of Employment Act 1977 – Collective Redundancies • Insight HR – Redundancy & Restructuring Services Get in touch If you're not already following us on LinkedIn, please do.

SUPREME COURT LIKELY TO STRIKE DOWN TRUMP TARIFFS Colleague Professor Richard Epstein. Epstein predicts the Supreme Court will invalidate the Trump administration's emergency tariffs, arguing there is no statutory basis for the trade imbalances cited as justification. He anticipates a fractured decision where a centrist block of justices joins liberals to rule that the executive branch exceeded its authority.1870 CASTLE GARDEN

Understanding the Step Transaction Doctrine: A Deep Dive into Tax LawThis conversation delves into the complexities of tax law, focusing on statutory interpretation, the step transaction doctrine, and the philosophical battles between textualism and intentionalism. It emphasizes the importance of understanding judicial doctrines that prevent tax avoidance and the implications of public policy on tax legislation. The discussion also highlights the need for transparency in governance to distinguish between legal tax avoidance and illegal tax evasion.In the intricate world of tax law, the Step Transaction Doctrine stands as a pivotal concept, especially for those preparing for the bar exam or delving into complex transactional courses. This doctrine is not just about reading the code; it's about mastering the interpretive skills necessary to navigate the formidable judge-made doctrines designed to combat tax avoidance.The Core of Statutory Interpretation: The journey begins with understanding the literal tools and textual canons used to read the code. The battle between pure textualism and intentionalism is a classic one, and mastering these philosophical debates is crucial for exam success. The substance over form doctrine, particularly the three classical tests of the step transaction doctrine, plays a critical role in how courts apply these principles against modern tax schemes.The Step Transaction Doctrine Explained: The doctrine treats a series of formally separate steps as a single integrated transaction if the steps were clearly undertaken to reach a specific end result. This application of substance over form is particularly used when the tax result hinges on the final ownership percentage or the sequence of property transfers. Understanding the stakes and the tests involved, such as the Binding Commitment Test, the Interdependence Test, and the End Result Test, is essential for any legal learner.Conclusion: Mastery of tax law requires a dual approach: respecting the text and anticipating the IRS's defensive use of judicial anti-abuse doctrines. The code is a complex reflection of our collective values, rewarding positive behaviors and penalizing social ills. As tax law continues to evolve globally, the challenge remains to achieve enough statutory clarity and transparency to distinguish between aggressive tax avoidance and illegal evasion.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest insights in tax law and more.TakeawaysMastering tax law requires understanding statutory interpretation and judicial doctrines.The step transaction doctrine integrates separate steps into a single transaction for tax purposes.Statutory definitions are crucial and often control over common interpretations.Judicial doctrines like economic substance and anti-avoidance are essential in tax law.The tension between textualism and intentionalism shapes judicial decisions in tax cases.Aggressive tax avoidance can be a result of legislative loopholes created by special interests.Transparency in tax governance is necessary to maintain public trust and clarity.The economic substance doctrine requires transactions to have real business purposes beyond tax benefits.The step transaction doctrine has three tests: binding commitment, interdependence, and end result.Public policy plays a significant role in shaping tax law and its interpretation.tax law, statutory interpretation, step transaction doctrine, tax avoidance, tax evasion, economic substance doctrine, judicial doctrines, public policy, legal analysis, tax planning

The Garden Trust's Linden Groves is campaigning against a proposal to end the organisation's role as a planning statutory consultee.She robustly contests the proposal to remove the statutory consultee role and disagrees that it would improve the planning system. Instead, precious parks and gardens, hard won over many centuries, would be lost to communities both now and in future.“We are passionate about the role that the UK's world-famous historic parks and gardens can play in supporting positive economic growth and healthy cohesive societies, and eager to continue helping this in our role as statutory consultee. We encourage supporters to respond to the consultation and will publish our response as soon as possible.”In March, the Government decided to ditch planning consultancy from bodies including The Gardens Trust, to speed up the planning system. “We are seeking views on reforming the role of statutory consultees in the planning system in England,” it said. The consultation closes at 11:59pm on 13 January 2026.The consultation can be accessed here.Make sure you never miss a HortWeek podcast!

Mickey Osterreicher of NPPA Discusses Photojournalism in the Modern Era: Legal Rights, AI Challenges, and How to Protect Your Work The 10 Frames Per Second podcast episode featuring Mickey Osterreicher, General Counsel for the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA), uncovers the toughest challenges facing today's visual journalists: Shrinking newsrooms & the rise of freelancers Legal battles over copyright, AI‑generated images, and fair use Police confrontations, arrests, and deportations of journalists The vital role of the NPPA in advocacy and education If you're a photojournalist, visual storyteller, or anyone who relies on images to inform the public, the insights from this episode are essential reading. A past guest on 10FPS (Episode 20) Mickey's career arc illustrates how photojournalism and law intersect: Phase Highlights Early Years Started with a 35 mm camera in college, photo‑edited the school newspaper, then worked for the Buffalo Courier‑Express (10 years). TV Transition Moved to WKBW‑TV, covered sports, and realized visual storytelling mattered more than column space. Law School Inspired by covering the Attica prison uprising and escorting attorneys William Kunstler & Ramsey Clark, he enrolled in law school while still working nights at the TV station. NPPA Legal Counsel Joined the NPPA in the early 1970s, later became its volunteer legal counsel, handling copyright, First Amendment, and police‑training issues. Key takeaway: A solid legal background can turn a photojournalist into an advocate for the entire visual‑journalism community. The State of the NPPA Why the NPPA Is Still Critical Founded 1946 – the “voice of visual journalists.” Membership shift: From staff photographers at newspapers/TV to freelancers & independent contractors. Financial pressure: Dues are modest, but staff salaries have been cut; board members now perform many staff functions pro‑bono. Advocacy priorities: Protect First Amendment rights. Provide legal training for journalists and law‑enforcement agencies. Fight AI‑related copyright infringement. NPPA's Current Initiatives Legal hotline – direct access to counsel for members. First‑Amendment training – delivered to police departments nationwide (e.g., Minnesota, Chicago). Copyright small‑claims court – a low‑cost venue for photographers to enforce their rights. Writing with Light (WwL) Coalition – developing standards for image provenance and authenticity. First Amendment & Police Encounters: What Every Visual Journalist Should Know 1. Know Your Rights Public spaces: You have the right to photograph and record, subject only to reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions. “Indicia” of journalist status: Press credentials, professional gear, and a clear “press” identifier help officers recognize you as a journalist. 2. Prepare Before You Go Contact local police ahead of time to introduce yourself. Work in pairs or a small team—the “buddy system” improves safety and documentation. Carry a written list of emergency contacts (phone numbers inked on your arm or stored offline). 3. If You're Detained Step Action Stay calm Do not resist; comply with lawful orders. Identify yourself Show press credentials, explain you're exercising First Amendment rights. Document the encounter Keep an audio/video record if safe to do so. Call the NP hotline (or the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press at 800‑336‑4243) as soon as possible. Notify a trusted contact (family, lawyer, editor). Ask for a copy of the arrest report and any charges filed. AI & Generative Images: The New Copyright Battlefield Why AI Threatens Photojournalism AI‑generated images can be indistinguishable from reality (e.g., deepfakes, synthetic disasters). Massive ingestion of photographers' work to train AI models, often without permission or compensation. Legal Landscape (U.S. Focus) Copyright registration is required before you can sue for infringement. Statutory damages: Up to $150,000 per image for willful infringement (as illustrated by the Daniel Morrel case). Fair‑use defense is fact‑intensive; courts evaluate purpose, nature, amount used, and market effect. Practical AI Safeguards Register every image you intend to license (or that has high news value). Add a visible watermark or embed metadata indicating ownership. Use tools from Adobe's Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) to embed provenance data. Monitor platforms for unauthorized use; send a cease‑and‑desist using NPPA's model letters (available on their website). Practical Steps to Safeguard Your Images {#practical-steps-to-safeguard-your-images} Register Your Work File a registration with the U.S. Copyright Office within 90 days of first publication to get retroactive protection. Maintain a Documentation Log Date, location, equipment, and a brief description for each shoot. Store original RAW files in an offline, encrypted backup. Use Model Release & License Agreements Clearly outline permitted uses, fee structures, and attribution requirements. Leverage NPPA Resources Model cease‑and‑desist letters – copy, personalize, and send. Small‑claims court filing kit – for disputes under $10 k, no attorney needed. Educate Your Audience Publish a short note on your site about image authenticity (e.g., “This photo was captured on location with a Sony A7R IV; not AI‑generated”).

Navigating the Complexities of Civil Procedure: Jurisdiction and VenueThis conversation provides a comprehensive overview of civil procedure, focusing on the essential elements needed to navigate the complexities of lawsuits in America. It covers the foundational concepts of subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction, and venue, along with the importance of pleadings, joinder, summary judgment, and the Erie doctrine. The discussion emphasizes the procedural traps and analytical frameworks necessary for success in civil procedure exams and practice.In the intricate world of civil procedure, understanding the foundational elements of jurisdiction and venue is crucial for any aspiring lawyer. These concepts are not just academic exercises; they are the keys to unlocking the courtroom doors.The Three Keys to the CourthouseImagine the courthouse as a fortress with three locked doors: subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction, and venue. Each door requires a unique key, and they must be unlocked in a specific order. Subject matter jurisdiction determines the court's power over the type of case, personal jurisdiction assesses the court's authority over the defendant, and venue ensures the trial is held in the most appropriate location.Subject Matter Jurisdiction: The First GateFederal courts, unlike their state counterparts, are courts of limited jurisdiction. They can only hear cases authorized by the Constitution or Congress. The two main pathways into federal court are federal question jurisdiction, where the plaintiff's claim is based on federal law, and diversity jurisdiction, involving parties from different states with a dispute exceeding $75,000.Personal Jurisdiction: Fairness and Due ProcessPersonal jurisdiction is rooted in the due process clause, ensuring fairness to the defendant. The landmark case of International Shoe introduced the concept of "minimum contacts," shifting the focus from physical presence to the defendant's actions and intentions within the state.Venue: The Final StepVenue is about convenience and geography, determining the most logical courthouse for the trial. Governed by statutory rules, venue is typically proper where any defendant resides or where a substantial part of the events occurred.The Evolving LandscapeAs the legal landscape evolves, particularly with the rise of the internet, the application of these rules continues to be a dynamic and challenging area of law. Understanding and mastering these procedural elements is essential for success in both exams and practice.Subscribe Now to stay updated on the latest insights and developments in civil procedure.TakeawaysCivil procedure is a step-by-step logic puzzle.Subject matter jurisdiction (SMJ) is crucial for any case.Personal jurisdiction (PJ) focuses on fairness to the defendant.Venue is about convenience and geographic location.Pleadings must meet specific standards to survive motions to dismiss.Joinder rules allow for efficient litigation of related claims.Summary judgment can resolve cases before trial if no material facts are in dispute.The Erie doctrine determines which law applies in federal diversity cases.Preclusion doctrines prevent relitigation of claims and issues.Understanding these concepts is essential for success in civil procedure.Civil Procedure, Subject Matter Jurisdiction, Personal Jurisdiction, Venue, Pleadings, Joinder, Summary Judgment, Erie Doctrine, Preclusion

Seven-Lecture Series on Property Law Series Roadmaphttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1ceyxXw7KilPSTUMFf_Y8r6ktEzM_gm1Q/view?usp=sharingUnderstanding the Rule Against Perpetuities: A Legal OdysseyThis conversation delves into the complexities of the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP), a fundamental concept in property law that restricts how long a property owner can dictate the future of their property. The discussion covers the historical context, the core components of RAP, common law traps, modern statutory reforms, and practical strategies for legal practitioners and students. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding both the traditional common law and modern reforms, including the implications of dynasty trusts and the evolving landscape of estate planning.Imagine a world where the past dictates the future, where decisions made centuries ago still hold sway over today's property rights. This is the realm of the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP), a legal doctrine that has both haunted and fascinated law students and practitioners alike. At its core, RAP is about balancing the freedom of property owners with societal needs for marketability and utility.The Historical Context: The Rule Against Perpetuities emerged as a response to the "dead hand" control, where property owners could impose conditions that lasted indefinitely. This legal principle was designed to prevent land from being tied up by outdated stipulations, ensuring it remains a dynamic part of the economy.The Legal Mechanics: RAP is famously encapsulated in the phrase: "No interest is good unless it must vest, if at all, not later than 21 years after some life in being at the creation of the interest." This means that any future interest in property must become certain within a specific timeframe, or it becomes void. The rule's complexity lies in its hypothetical scenarios, such as the "fertile octogenarian" and "unborn widow," which challenge the imagination and legal reasoning.Modern Reforms and Implications: Over time, the rigidity of RAP has led to reforms like the Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities (USRAP), which introduces a 90-year vesting period. These changes reflect a shift towards practicality, allowing courts to "wait and see" if interests vest within this period. Additionally, the rise of dynasty trusts has transformed RAP into a tool for wealth preservation, enabling families to shield assets from taxes over extended periods.The Rule Against Perpetuities remains a cornerstone of property law, illustrating the tension between individual autonomy and societal progress. As legal landscapes evolve, RAP continues to challenge and inspire, prompting us to consider who truly holds the power over property—those living today or the echoes of the past.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest legal insights and trends.TakeawaysThe Rule Against Perpetuities is a complex but essential concept in property law.Understanding the policy behind RAP is crucial for effective legal analysis.The common law's strict tests can lead to absurd results, such as the fertile octogenarian scenario.Modern reforms like the wait and see doctrine provide more practical solutions.Dynasty trusts exploit RAP to shield wealth from taxes over generations.Identifying interests subject to RAP is key to effective estate planning.Exemptions from RAP can save certain interests from being voided.Common law traps highlight the need for careful drafting in estate documents.Statutory reforms have softened the harshness of the common law rule.Preventive compliance through saving clauses is the gold standard for drafters.Rule Against Perpetuities, property law, estate planning, common law, statutory reforms, dynasty trusts, legal education, RAP analysis, estate planning strategies, legal traps

Understanding Limited Partnerships and Limited Liability PartnershipsThis conversation delves into the intricacies of limited partnerships (LPs) and limited liability partnerships (LLPs), focusing on their structural differences, liability dynamics, statutory evolution, and the implications of fiduciary duties. It highlights key case studies, tax benefits, and the operational aspects of dissolution and dissociation, while also addressing the moral hazards associated with limited liability structures.In the complex world of business law, understanding the nuances of different partnership structures is crucial, especially for those preparing for exams or navigating the legal landscape of business associations. This post explores the key differences between Limited Partnerships (LPs) and Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs), highlighting the statutory nuances and potential pitfalls.The Basics of LPs and LLPs: Limited Partnerships (LPs) and Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) serve as hybrid business structures that offer unique benefits and challenges. LPs are designed primarily for raising capital, requiring at least one general partner (GP) with unlimited liability and one or more limited partners (LPs) who enjoy liability protection. In contrast, LLPs cater to professional firms, providing a liability shield for all partners against malpractice, while allowing shared management responsibilities.Key Differences and Legal Traps:Liability Structure: In an LP, the GP manages the business and bears unlimited liability, while LPs are passive investors with liability limited to their capital contribution. However, if an LP participates in management, they risk losing their liability shield. Statutory Compliance: Both LPs and LLPs require formal registration with the state. Failure to comply with statutory requirements can result in the loss of liability protection, as illustrated by cases like Campbell v. Lichtenfels. Tax Benefits: Both structures benefit from pass-through taxation, avoiding the double taxation faced by corporations. This flexibility in profit allocation is particularly advantageous in investment structures.Understanding the legal framework and operational dynamics of LPs and LLPs is essential for anyone involved in business law. These structures offer significant advantages but require strict compliance with statutory requirements to maintain liability protection. As you navigate your legal studies or professional practice, remember to consider the implications of these partnership forms on liability and risk management.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest insights in business law and partnership structures.TakeawaysThe distinction between LPs and LLPs is crucial for legal exams.LPs are designed for raising capital with a dualistic structure.LLPs provide a liability shield for all partners against malpractice.Statutory compliance is essential for maintaining liability protections.The control rule can jeopardize a limited partner's liability shield.Case studies like Frigidaire illustrate the importance of corporate form.LLPs protect partners from vicarious liability but not their own mistakes.Tax benefits of LPs and LLPs include pass-through taxation.Fiduciary duties differ significantly between general and limited partners.Dissolution processes follow strict statutory guidelines.LP, LLP, business law, partnerships, liability, taxation, fiduciary duties, dissolution, legal structures, case studies

Bennett is a retired U.S. District Court Judge, and the former Chief Judge of the Northern District of Iowa.  Judge Bennett retired from the federal bench in 2019, and is now Director Emeritus of the Institute for Justice Reform & Innovation at Drake University Law School.  Judge Bennett is known for his advocacy for sentencing reform—including his criticism of the federal sentencing guidelines and statutory mandatory minimum sentences—for his research on implicit bias, and, unusually, for his prison visits to check up on hundreds of the defendants he sentenced.  For some of those inmates, Judge Bennett has written, he is the only visitor they have ever had.  Equally unusually, Judge Bennett has often met with the families of those he's sentenced, at their request, to explain his sentences.  We were honored to discuss with Judge Bennett his own quest for justice, his experience sentencing thousands of federal criminal defendants, and so much more. 

Does your organisation provide fair and equal leave and pay for all new parents? The Government has launched a full 18-month review of family-related leave and the Employment Rights Bill is set to introduce some changes in this area. In the meantime higher expectations among the workforce appear to be prompting organisations to take matters into their own hands and to develop ambitious new policies. In this episode of the podcast Zeba Sayed, senior legal editor at Brightmine, talks to Becs Peedell, employment lawyer at Lewis Silkin, about her organisation's equal new parent policy - and how it is seeking to encourage other firms to follow suit. Read the transcript Resources Equalised new parent leave policy How Lewis Silkin developed and rolled out its equalised new parent leave policy Statutory neonatal care leave: What HR needs to know On your radar - Employment Rights Bill updates and HR mythbusting Key Takeaways The podcast discusses UK parental leave, the newly launched Government review and law firm Lewis Silkin's equalised new parent leave policy. UK statutory leave offers 52 weeks for mothers, 1-2 weeks for fathers, and shared parental leave, but uptake is low and policies are seen as outdated. Lewis Silkin's policy gives all new parents up to 52 weeks' leave, with 26 weeks at full pay for those with a year's service. Leave can be taken flexibly. The policy has seen high uptake, including among fathers, and has cost more than expected, but is viewed as a success for workplace equality. The firm encourages other organisations to consider similar policies, emphasising stakeholder buy-in and operational planning.

When stating ISO Management System ‘compliance', that in reality means the conformance to ISO Standard requirements, compliance in ISO terminology actually refers to compliance with legal and other statutory regulations. It may sound like semantics, but the difference is distinct for a reason, as you don't get a ‘non-compliance' for not meeting requirements, rather you get a ‘non-conformity'. When it comes to compliance with the law as required by ISO Standards, you need more than a Legal Register to prove compliance. In this episode, Ian Battersby dives into what is meant by compliance in ISO, how this relates to legal and statutory requirements, and how businesses can effectively evaluate compliance. You'll learn ·      What is the difference between ‘Compliance' and ‘Conformity'? ·      What are the different types of compliance requirements? ·      How do Acts and Regulations work in tandem? ·      Who enforces legal compliance requirements? ·      Where do these requirements sit in ISO Standards? ·      How do you prove compliance within ISO management? ·      How do you evaluate effective compliance?   Resources ·      Isologyhub ·      From Silos to Synergy: The benefits of Implementing an Integrated ISO Management System Webinar registration   In this episode, we talk about: [00:30] Upcoming webinar: If you'd like to learn more about the benefits of integrated management systems, feel free to register for our upcoming webinar here. [01:30] Episode Summary – Ian Battersby discusses the topic of compliance within ISO Standards, and how you can effectively evaluate it within your Management System.     [02:30] What is the difference between ‘Compliance' and ‘Conformity'? It's a common misconception that you ‘comply' with an ISO Standard, when in reality, you conform to an ISO Standard, hence why you can receive a ‘non-conformity' in audits and not ‘noncompliance'. When we talk about compliance within ISO Management, this refers to compliance with the law, regulations and other statutory requirements, as this is a requirement within all ISO Standards. [03:50] What are the different types of compliance requirements? There are many different types of law, Ian focuses on what is known as statute law legislation, as this is distinct from common law, case law and constitutional conventions. Statute law legislation is clearly written and can be cited in something like a Legal Register, or Register of Compliance Obligations. There are different types of legislation that you'll need to document, including: Primary Legislation: These are put in place by acts of UK Parliament and may have involvement from devolved administrations as well. Statutory compliance refers to compliance with primary legislation. An example of this type of legislation includes the Health & Safety at Work Act. Secondary or delegated legislation: Those primary Acts often require a lot more detail regarding the practicalities of applying them, which is delivered through Secondary or delegated legislation, otherwise more commonly known as regulations. These have more input from relevant public bodies to provide the requirements that can be applied. Both regulations are issues under Statutory Instruments (SI's), which are the formal legal vehicle that gives them effect. Put simply, regulations are the rules and Statutory Instruments are the legal mechanism which brings those rules into effect. [06:05] How Acts and Regulations work in tandem: Taking the Health & Safety at Work Act as an example, at the start this was quite a broad and generic act, it wasn't until years later that the workplace health, safety and welfare regulations came about to support the Act. This was further bolstered with the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations. Both regulations were developed through consultation between Government departments and other bodies such as the Health & Safety Executive. These regulations gave companies much more detail on what's actually required in order to comply with the Health & Safety at Work Act. [06:50] Who enforces legal requirements? – It's not just the police that enforce legal requirements, there are a number of other bodies independent of government and the judiciary that can enforce regulations and prosecute for breaches caused by organisations and individuals. This can include bodies such as The Health & Safety Executive, The Financial Conduct Authority, The Environment Agency and the Information Commissioners Office. There are more for other areas, and these are often the bodies involved in the development of specific regulations. [07:45] Where do these requirements sit in ISO Standards? As Is the case with ISO Standards, the requirement for compliance is sprinkled throughout the whole document. Starting with Clause 4 Context. Here ‘Interested parties' are a focus, of which regulatory bodies can be considered an interested party, as they control the regulations that you are required to comply with by law. Even if you don't think you fall under specific legislation, there are still general applicable business laws that all businesses must comply with. So this exercise is not simply a case of running a Management System, it's also about running an effective business.  Ian highlights clause 6.1.3 in ISO 45001, which states the need to determine legal requirements applicable to your business, whereas in ISO 14001 this clause talks about compliance obligations. Despite the difference in wording, they are essentially looking for the same thing, which is detailing what legal requirements you need to comply with. In ISO 9001 it also states that any products or services offered should meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. This is then further strengthened in the Leadership clause as leaders are required to ensure that their commitments meet all customer requirements, but also any applicable regulatory and statutory requirements associated with the products and service. This is phrasing that is repeated throughout ISO 9001. Going back to ISO 45001 and ISO 14001, both also require an evaluation of compliance, both the part of monitoring and measuring and the results of them to be submitted through your management review process. The Standards are very clear in that they require you to determine the frequency and methods for evaluation of compliance. [12:00] How do you prove compliance within ISO management? In ISO 45001 there is an appendix that give examples of what you can monitor and measure for the fulfilment and evaluation of legal requirements. As mentioned, many organisations opt to use a Legal Register which states all applicable legislation for your business that will be evaluated in an Internal Audit, but proving genuine compliance is much more than just acknowledging the legislation itself. For larger organisations, this can be a very burdensome task, especially if you find yourself in a position where legal requirements aren't being met. Ian provides an example to illustrate how to prove effective compliance: Waste removal is something that every business has to do, whether they do so through a waste management contractor, or through a landlord, the law states that any waste you generate must be removed, transferred, processed, treated, etc. by licenced organisation in a very specifically regulated fashion. You as an organisation or your landlord may receive an annual season ticket which includes the required demonstration of compliance, which can be in the form of West Carrier license number, the types of waste, the classification codes under the European or waste catalogue, dates and signatures. Now if you run into an instance where something on that waste transfer note was incorrect, like a wrong address or waste type, how do you prove that you were still compliant in the actual activity of removing waste? An Audit will pick up on the note discrepancies and you may be faced with being non-compliant. A way to ensure that you have a record of compliance is to keep electronic copies of all your waste transfer notes, and keep them in a central location, or even possibly linked within your Legal Register if possible. Despite the discrepancy, you will be able to prove that you have a prior record of compliance. Ian gives another example, you may have air conditioning in your area of work that's due for a service. The contractor will need to verify the engineer before you engage with them, including a check to see if they're competent under F Gas Regulations and hold a valid REFCOM Registration Certificate. If you wait to check / validate their certificates of competence, you may run into a situation where they may have an expired certificate at the time that they serviced your aircon, and so that may render that service as inadequate under your legal requirements. To avoid this, you should reference that you've evaluated the contractor within your Legal Register, this would include a check on their registration number and dates of when their F Gas competency certificates are valid, ensuring your service falls within those dates. In short, to demonstrate compliance, you should be keeping on-going records in relation to your legal requirements. These should also be readily available and easily accessible. [20:35] How do you evaluate effective compliance:  Legal requirements such as the Health & Safety at Work Act are much broader, and it can be difficult to know exactly what records you need to keep to prove compliance. This is where the supporting regulations can provide the required detail and provide a much clearer picture of what evidence is required. One example is the requirement to carry out sufficient risk assessments, which requires you to identify hazards, assess risks, determine control measures you know, communicate those to people, and review of those assessments regularly. You as the business will need to create a programme to manage the risk assessment process, and this should be documented somewhere, including a note of your review and action dates. This risk assessment list should also be linked within your Legal Register. In short, one of the most effective ways to show and evaluate compliance is to ensure that all relevant evidence is linked or attached in some way to a Legal Register or Register of Compliance Obligations. These evidence documents should be active and hold a record of previous actions and any planned upcoming actions. You could also schedule regular inspections of your legal compliance, to evaluate your level of compliance against different requirements on an on-going basis. The resulting reports can also be linked within the Legal Register. Don't just rely on Internal Audits to cover your legal compliance evaluation. Utilise dedicated legal compliance inspections, link all relevant evidence within your legal register and have on-going reviews and updates throughout the year.   If you'd like any assistance with implementing ISO standards, get in touch with us, we'd be happy to help!

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Arvind Sontha, COE and co-founder of Kyber, an AI startup redefining how carriers handle claims correspondence. The insurance industry is undergoing a seismic shift as carries face mounting pressure to deliver faster, more transparent, and compliant communications to policy holders and clients, so the need for digital claims transformation has never been greater. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you think about insurance and tailoring insurance, the underlying model for risk is effectively a ‘user personal model'. We started with an obscure line of insurance that didn't exist yet – or did around personal cyber insurance. We wondered what it would look like, rather than SMB or commercial cyber insurance, as individual underwriting and risk modelling. We got lucky finding a great partner in branch insurance very early on. Over the course of our time engaging with them we ended up turning into an extension of their team. We were able to work closely with them, they trusted us to quickly understand their problems and iterate to give them quick solutions, while at the same time they understood that there are going to be quirks with products that aren't fully fleshed out which they could iron out over time. It was a symbiotic relationship. If an adjustor has to take an hour to put a document together you have to clear a 1.5-hour space in your calendar to do that. Life is hectic, you have meetings and other tasks to do and so that 1.5-hour block keeps getting moved back, same thing happens to managers. If you can take it from 1.5 hours to 30 seconds for a high-quality letter and a one-click process to approve, you can slip that into any part of your calendar. That's a really underrated part of the process. Some of the things we want to do in the future is include things like managed parameters. We think it's obtuse for all the carriers to manage all the fraud language individually all the time, for example. Kyber could manage that for you to make sure everything's automatically compliant and good to go. Statutory language really enables the full organisation to be prepared to catch each other. BEST MOMENTS ‘Kyber is an AI native, document generation and delivery platform made for claims teams, that's what we do.' ‘Nobody doubted that I could build the complex AI to underwrite and quantify the risk, what they needed to figure out was could I sell insurance, which is why I got my broker's licence!' ‘The results have been better than I expected, we've seen 65% faster drafting times, 80% consolidation of their templates across a 50-state operation, and 5x reduction in letter cycle times for documents.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Arvind Sontha is co-founder and CEO of Kyber, an AI startup that is redefining how carriers' NTPAs handle claims correspondence. Arvind is at the forefront of digital transformation, leading Kyber's mission to automate and streamline the entire lifecycle of claims forms and letters. Kyber's clients report the impact of AI automation is undeniable: Claims teams using Kyber have reduced letter drafting time by up to 85%, cut review time by 60%, and achieved a 3x faster outreach to policy holders.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone preparing to submit their Express Entry application and unsure how much to disclose.

Niall Muldoon, Ombudsman for Children, is calling for a statutory mechanism to investigate child deaths in Ireland.

All non-critical and non-statutorily required work will cease at the General Services Administration's Technology Transformation Services as part of a 50% reduction of the office, according to Director Thomas Shedd. In his prepared remarks for a Thursday afternoon town hall, which were obtained by FedScoop, Shedd said that to deliver technology at GSA in a “more focused and streamlined way,” moving forward TTS will support only work that is required by statute and policy, fits into the Trump administration's definition of critical, and is prioritized by the leadership at GSA “in accordance with the priorities of the administration.” Everything else will be eliminated, per Shedd, who said in his remarks that TTS will be smaller in size – at least 50% smaller. Additionally, any contracts that support the work that falls outside of the established bounds “will be terminated” and any job functions that are deemed non-essential will be cut. The prioritized and remaining TTS programs include Login.gov, FedRAMP, Cloud.gov, statutorily required websites, the Integrated Award Environment, the Office of Regulatory Oversight, the Centers of Excellence, the Presidential Innovation Fellowship Program, the U.S. Digital Corps, operations and other “special projects.” Australian-based software company Atlassian has tapped Matthew Graviss to be its first public sector chief technology officer following his recent departure as the State Department's top data and AI official. Although the role starts a new private sector chapter in Graviss's career, being the first person to establish a newly created position is familiar ground. During his time in the federal government, Graviss was the first-ever chief data officer at both the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. In an interview with FedScoop, Graviss said his role at Atlassian is an extension of that experience in that he'll again be codifying the responsibilities of the job, showing value and solving customer problems. Regardless of whether his role is in or out of the government, Graviss said “the delivery of better goods and services to citizens is contingent upon … an ecosystem of government employees, service providers, and solution providers.” The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.
