Review of workings of European Court of Human Rights : a new Woolf Report

http://www.eulaw.typepad.com/

We don't usually cover European Court of Human Rights stuff unless it impacts directly on EU law. You just can't cover everything.

But here is a report worth looking at by Lord Woolf about the working methods of the Court and how to cope with the massive case load.

Two suggestions made in the report may well be transposed to the Court of Justice and the Court of First Instance one day. Not tomorrow, for sure, but perhaps in 15 to 20 years time.

The first suggestion is the creation of "satellite offices of the registry". They would be set up in different countries and screen applications before they are lodged with the court.

The second suggestion is to encourage greater use of ombudsmen and alternative dispute resolution.

Sincerely yours, Rodrigo González Fernández

TPC Executive Study Group

Join Us on March 1

On Wednesday, March 1, The TPC Executive Study Group will present "The Business Environment in the 21st Century," an exploration of four critical questions:
-What is the true nature of the business environment in the 21st century?
-What is the root cause of the intense pressure for change that we are all feeling?
-What are the biggest potential hazards, those pitfalls that lead to failure in this environment?
-What is the pathway to success?

We believe all four questions have the same answer. Join us as our guest to find out what that answer is at the Royal Sonesta in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on Wednesday, March 1. This event will provide senior executives the rare opportunity to debate ideas, share experiences, and strategize with others. We guarantee you'll get some new perspectives for addressing organizational challenges, leveraging the talents of your people, and re-imagining your work from a new point of view.

Make your reservations by February 20 by contacting RachelGaddy@tompeters.com or 617/242-5522. Get more information by visiting the News/Events section of our website.
