6I.1.1.Definition of UK legal systemThe laws, rules, and regulations constitute the legal framework for implementation (Legal Information Institute, 2019). The system contains rules, procedures and institutions that allow public and private policies to be enforced by standardized and lawful means (Hazard, 2015). The below table will present 4 main type of legal systems: Common law: are made by legislatures but are created by judgments of a court or statutorylaw (case law). Example: UK, USCivil law: based on the systematic and extensive codification of law. It comes from legal code Example: France, Japan, Russia Theocratic law: Based on religious teaching and formed by Koran Example: Israel Customary law: The unwritten law is established by life experience, religion or philosophy or in other words, the moral standards of society.Example: Africa, Ukraine (University of South Carolina School of Law, 2018)The UK currently has three separate legal systems divided in 3 areas are England and Wales (Common Law); Northern Ireland; Scotland.
7The legislature in Parliament will consist of three components: the monarch, the upper house and the lower house. The head of the legislature and executive branch in England and Northern Ireland will be the queen (head of state). The Senate has 788 members of law who function through laws and oversee the government's activities; discuss important issues of the country. The House of Representatives consists of 650 parliamentarians who will be tasked with passing the budget and overseeing government activities with two committees on common affairs and a committee of experts (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 2019).The executive branch has a prime minister appointed by the queen and is passed by the lower house. The Prime Minister will run the cabinet, proposing to the queen important positionsin the executive branch such as bishops or judges. Under the prime minister will be a cabinet with 22-23 members appointed by the prime minister and the queen approved to include ministers and vice ministers (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 2019).I.1.2.The sources of law (P1)-Internal sources of law
8•Common law: Case law is considered the first law source due to the history of the legal system. Cases and judgments that are objective, impartial and justice in society can be exemplary to apply to similar cases later (Cilex.org.uk, 2019).•Written law (statutory): Legislation includes laws, rules and regulations. Legislative documents are the usual rules and regulations promulgated by the parliament (Cilex.org.uk, 2019).-External sources of law EU Law: As a member of the EU, of course, following the rules of the union is obvious. It is a form of international law but does not appear in international law. For example, a person in European Union countries can sue for rights guaranteed by EU law and international law will be required to be transformed into national law before being applied (Dicey, 1915).The European Convention on Human Rights: This international treaty is a convention to protect human rights and political freedoms in Europe. The Convention came into force in 1953 and included basic rights of human and freedom (The Ministry of Justice, 2019)I.1.3.The function of law
