A lecture designed for first year law students at the University of Huddersfield studying Constitutional and Administrative law and preparing for their first summative piece of coursework.
The lecture looks at a background to the Human Rights Act 1998, examines a number of the key sections and finally considers the advantages and disadvantages of the legislation. Finally there are also some thoughts on the prospect of a British Bill of Rights that would potentially replace the Human Rights Act.

Hi Marcus I really appreciate your videos, thank you. My question I am trying to get an answer for is; how does the Human Rights Act affect the work of public authorities in the UK?

@sarahmichie4382 4 жыл бұрын

Absolutely love this, thank you Marcus. My only point to note is that the HRA covers the UK, not just England :)

My exam at uni just wants us to describe the act rather than give us a case if that makes sense

s.6 remains unclear when it comes to private individuals vs private individuals. If the courts are a public body, what is to stop private individuals from bringing claims against other private individuals?

Hi Marcus many thanks. I have a question about a friend of mine who has a mental illness and has been sectioned under the mental health act. He has been sectioned many times as an adult against his wishes. He is deprived of his Liberty. He is deprived of family life. Can this be regarded as being incomparable with his human rights.

@marcuscleaver 6 жыл бұрын

It might be but that is not necessarily the case. The rights that you mention are not absolute rights and so they can be restricted in certain circumstances. A court or tribunal would have to examine all the evidence in line with the Mental Health Acts. I'm sorry to hear about the situation your friend is in however, it sounds terrible.

This Act further reinforces my love for the Canadian Constitution. Parliamentary supremacy feels dangerous when it threatens individual liberties.

I am unclear on whether HRA permits private parties to bring HR violations against each other to court. You say ordinarily not, but you say the court argued ... etc. But if the court argued successfully, then all claims are brought before courts so this completely opens up the scope.

the british bill of rights didnt happen. the people wouldnt allow david cameron get away with scrapping the constitutional human rights act. our constitution maybe unwritten but its constitutional nevertheless.
