This immigration analysis considers the impact of Gurung & Others (Gurkhas, historic injustice, Article 8) Nepal, which clarified that historic injustice remains a powerful factor in the Article 8 proportionality assessment in Gurkha cases, but only where there is a causal connection between that injustice and the appellant's current circumstances. Establishing Article 8 family life through dependency does not, by itself, demonstrate that the historic injustice determines the proportionality outcome.

Many companies choose to adopt statutory default articles of association upon incorporation rather than drafting their own bespoke articles of association. Since 1 October 2009, such default articles of association have been known as the model articles. Prior to that date, they were known as 'Table A'. There have been a number of versions of and amendments to the model articles and to Table A since their first introduction in the Joint Stock Companies Act 1865 (but note that Table A was initially known as 'Table B' because in that Act they were preceded by a form of Memorandum of Association called ‘Form A'). The version of default articles that applies to any given company is the version in force at the date that the company was registered. Newer versions or amendments to the default statutory articles are not automatically applied

The Law Commission Report: Digital assets: Final report published in June 2023 states at paragraph 3.1: ‘“Property” can be divided into real property (interests in land) and personal property (interests in other things). The law of England and Wales traditionally recognised two distinct categories of personal property rights: rights relating to things in possession (tangible things), and rights relating to things in action (legal rights or claims enforceable

The most common type of security in respect of borrowing is a legal mortgage. A legal mortgage will be registered at HM Land Registry and will rank in priority to subsequent encumbrances. Legal mortgages are governed by sections 85 and 86 of the Law of Property Act 1925 (LPA 1925), which contain mechanisms for the grant of a leasehold interest, and LPA 1925, s 87, which provides for the execution of a deed secured as a charge and which is the commonly used modern method for the grant of standard mortgages. An equitable charge is a proprietary interest granted by way of security over property, which confers rights in rem which are binding on third parties provided that they have notice, and are unaffected by insolvency.

Hitachi Ltd is a Japanese multinational engineering and electronics conglomerate company headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. Hitachi completed acquisition of Horizon Nuclear Power on 26 November 2012.

Established in 2007 Hitachi GE Nuclear Energy is a global alliance between Japan's Hitachi and the United States' General Electric Co with the purpose of providing services under synergetic cooperation for the whole nuclear power business: from research and development, design, manufacturing, construction, test runs, operation and system maintenance.

The company established to manage and deliver Hitachi’s nuclear business in the UK and Europe.

Hitachi has confirmed that it will end business operations on the Horizon Project which, would have seen nuclear power stations comprising of two units of UK advanced boiling water reactor be developed at Wylfa Newydd in Anglesey, North-West Wales. It was hoped that the Horizon Project would ‘develop Hitachi's nuclear business in the UK and contribute to the energy policy of the UK government, as well as maintaining the business foundation that supports the nuclear industry in Japan’. The project was initially suspended in January 2019 and will now no longer continue due to ‘economic rationality’ and the investment environment becoming ‘increasingly severe’ due to the impact of coronavirus (COVID-19).

CASE HUB ARCHIVED—this archived case hub reflects the position at the date of the decision of 4 October 2023; it is no longer maintained. See further, timeline Case facts Outline UK merger investigation into the anticipated acquisition by Hitachi Rail, Ltd of Thales SA’s Ground Transportation Systems Business. The transaction involves horizontal overlaps in the supply of mainline rail signalling and urban signalling systems. Latest developments On 4 October 2023, the CMA issued its final report, finding that the transaction may be expected to result in an SLC in the supply of digital mainline signalling systems (and related services) in Great Britain. In particular, the CMA found that: (i) the parties are the two largest suppliers in the market; (ii) the sector is highly concentrated and there are only two other main competitors (Siemens and Alstom); and (iii) there would be fewer credible bidders remaining for digital mainline signalling tenders. To remedy the SLC, the CMA has decided that the most effect remedy was for Hitachi Rail, Ltd to sell parts of its mainline signalling business to a

The House of Commons (HoC) Library has published a research briefing summarising proposals from the government’s 12 May 2025 immigration white paper, ‘Restoring Control over the Immigration System’. The briefing, which includes references to the white paper as well as accompanying documents/announcements and relevant Parliamentary answers, looks at the key changes proposed, when they changes might come in, and who may be affected by the settlement changes.

The House of Commons (HoC Library) has published a briefing on the UK government’s response to the Windrush scandal. This concerned the cohort of people who migrated to the UK from Caribbean Commonwealth countries between 1948 and 1973, and are entitled to live in the UK permanently, but some people subsequently did not have documentation to prove this. As a result they were wrongly treated as not being lawfully in the UK, and were denied access to employment, healthcare and other services, and in some cases detained or removed from the country. The briefing looks at the previous government’s response to the scandal, including its schemes to provide proof of immigration status, and to provide compensation for losses experienced. It also looks at the 'Lessons Learned' review by Wendy Williams, and the new Labour government's proposals to improve the response.

The House of Commons (HOC) Library has published a briefing following the conviction of Mike Amesbury MP which could potentially trigger a recall petition, if not successfully appealed and the call by the Senedd Cymru Standards of Conduct Committee for a recall mechanism to be introduced for members of the Senedd. It explains how the recall petition works in the UK parliament, the conditions necessary to trigger a recall and when it has been used previously.
