in the justice of courts
Government has playing the essential role into making a new law with the proper changes
and improve such laws which are already exists in the country. There is a varied type of rules
and regulations which are all set to propose those laws which are following properly with the
proper guidelines which are created by the government. The government is always responsible
for making the new rule and such regulations, policies, public services and the foreign affairs.
These following rules and regulations must be understood by the every people who are living the
United Kingdom. So this is way where government are find themselves to making up such
regulations which helps to keep peace in the country and better environment over there.
Whereas, the government are always ready to support the business terms at the legal aspects and
with the taxation policies (Li, Sun and Singh, 2018). The government always provide the
insurances and the security laws which helps the UK citizens for their betterment and the social
purpose.
There are the example of the government laws which are made with some policies and
the business laws.
Executive role- this role helps in the activities which have an enforcement of such rules
and regulations which are made by the government and implemented by the businesses and the
citizens of the UK. This helps to execute such laws and making a public awareness who are
specifically using this law which helps the whole country with their betterment.
Legislative role- in this role, the government always makes the policies and the laws
which are in the favour of the public and helps to govern the nation as well. UK's parliament
passed the bill which is ensured by the citizens who are bounded with following those laws and
the after this it needs to be had an approval of the supreme authority who handles the number of
legislations. There is a reason behind this, for ensuring that the UK citizens are following the
rules or not. It also ensures that everyone must be bounded with the rules and regulations, if
anyone trying to be smart or avoided following the rules there are many punishments are there
and legal actions which will be charged over the person.
The laws are designed by the government, or making any kind of changes which are

presented in the houses of the law, which are the houses of the common people and the houses of
the lords.

following the laws in the country.
 This stages shows that the generated bill is specifically read by the authorized member
which ensure about the approval of the law which is known as a first reading.

 With having a proper completion of the last stage the another one which are used as the
reading up with the voting process and these are being held with it. The members who are
majorly included in this process are clearly required to be present on the courtroom.
 The second last step refers to the House of lords which is necessary for checking up the
bills appropriately before the case proceeding and having an approval in detailed manner
where the bill has be passed on the regular basis.

a particular country. There are few laws which has passed by the federal government and the
state government. With the implementation of these laws which considered as a new law or
passed by the government which are able to resolve such kind of major issues.
The common law is a famous law which are known as the another name of the case law,
it considers only two type of law which is the first law are the judgements passed by the
government for such new laws and with the another one where it is judged by the existing laws.
This shows that how the laws are framed by such government agencies which is necessary to
implement.

Both the laws have their own consistency and the difference between these laws are
based on the such written laws and the other side which is basically in a common law which is
based on such judicial opinions which are having a proper decision are made (Manzané‐Pinzón,
Goldstein and Schnitzer, 2018). The statutory law and the common law are most important
