Business and the Human Rights Act 1998 focuses on the commercial implications of this groundbreaking Act, providing a thorough and authoritative treatment of the subject. The Act will allow companies, as well as individuals, direct access to certain of the guarantees contained in the European Convention on Human Rights. Businesses will therefore have a new weapon in challenging the actions of Government and other public authorities. Detailed consideration is also given in the text to the position of those companies which are themselves likely to be designated public authorities under the new legislation and which will potentially be exposed to claims under the Act.
By reference to existing Convention case-law, the book assesses the practical implications of the Act for business and provides guidance on the new procedure for introducing human rights issues in domestic courts and tribunals.
This book provides lawyers with the detail they need to advise on the risks and opportunities presented by the Act.
