Pierre, Helen. "Extrinsic aids and the interpretation of statutes." Thesis, University of Ottawa (Canada), 1990. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/5581.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis considers a question of increasing significance in Canada today--the use of extrinsic aids in the interpretation of statutes. The thesis argues that the principles adopted by the courts that allow the admission of certain aids to interpretation for limited purposes only and that do not allow the admission of legislative history in non-constitutional cases create artificial distinctions amongst the various different types of aids. These distinctions serve to obscure rather than elucidate the process of interpretation by the courts. There are no compelling reasons for the courts to r

Full text

Abstract:

The study investigated the degree of compliance of selected Arizona public school districts with a set of state statutes which placed a limit on the amount bilingual education services a district could provide to students. The existing literature on implementation and compliance suggested that several conditions might influence districts to implement programs of instruction which would be at variance with the state laws. The study used questionnaires to gather program data from 40 school districts in southeastern Arizona. These questionnaires were screened to determine those districts offering

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.<br>This study examines the way in which the South African judiciary approaches the interpretation of fiscal legislation. It refers back to the use of the literal/textual approach (traditional approach), its shortcomings and the modification of such approach if it leads to absurdity. It also explores the purposive and contextual approaches to the interpretation of fiscal statutes. It then ana- lyses whether the advent of the Constitution (The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa of 1996) has brought a paradigm shift from the strict literal approach t

Abstract:

The study, entitled “Identification of the parties to the employment relationship: an appraisal of teleological interpretation of statutes”, is a legal-interdisciplinary doctrinal investigation situated within the fields of labour law and the interpretation of statutes. It concerns itself with the proper interpretation of labour legislation in general and the interpretive question as to who should be party to the employment relationship in particular, within the context of the advent of constitutionalism and the proliferation of and the increase in the importance of labour legislation. In law,

Abstract:

The objectives of this thesis were to observe how the Canadian youth justice system has dealt with the regulation of the transfer of young offenders to the adult court and how the Canadian statutes have regulated the imposition of adult offences for young offenders. For this, I drew a distinction between two levels of observation: first, I observed the process of "creation of statutes" by the political system. Second, I observed the process of "understanding and interpretation of statutes" by the judicial system. The notion of "political system" includes the legislation enacted by Parliament

Abstract:

The thesis in question is titled “Readjusting Orthodoxy”. It constitutes a discourse in UK constitutional law although legal theoretic, historical, politicial, philosophical, and EU-related complementary themes are also present. It is founded upon, and driven by, two fundamental, inter-related premises. First, that it is the orthodox reading of the UK Constitution which best describes and explains the present constitutional arrangement: the UK Parliament is a sovereign institution sitting at the apex of the UK Constitution and vested with the right to make and unmake any law whatsoever.
