INTRODUCTION
Law is created for providing a safe and secure environment with binding it with set of
rules and regulations for making the society work in correct flow of working. Business law is the
branch which helps an individual working either in a organisation or running a business. The
basic purpose here is to create set of working environment which is favourable for all
individuals. The file consists of explaining all the types of business organisations and making
them have a proper legal systems which helps in structuring all legal organisations. In the second
half of the file there are explained many legal solutions with their correct procedures.
MAIN BODY
TASK-1
1.1Provide different types of legal systems and explain civil and criminal law.
The legal systems in UK is the best and simplest form of legal structure explained in the
environment which is helping all organisations and persons which have to work as per the
guidelines in the organisation. The basic purpose of this here is to demotivate any kind of biased
in the organisation and avoid any disputes de to due diligence in companies. The legal system is
bifurcated in two parts where the house of lords and commons take the participation in creating
laws and regulations in the environment. They have to work as per he environment and making
any bill finalised in his context is to be promoted, and the last signature of improvisation 9is
done by the royal monarch of royal Queen (World Bank Doing Business project (Besley, 2015).
In the current scenario the two legal division which are categorised are civil and criminal law.
The civil law is in basic nature of all well beings and provided as a matter of fact that any case
which is related to land, property or any other matter which is illegal doings over an organisation
or business comes under civil law. The criminal law is consisting of the fact where a person is
accused of any illegal wrong doings where a crime has happened. These both are constructed on
the grounds of business purposes and making them accountable on the fact that there are many
listed questions which have to be made as per the guidelines in the environment. Both of these
law are treated by special courts which have rulings and laws as per heir crimes and provide
punishments and punishments looking at their crime or illegal activity provided (Barkan, Bintliff
and Whisner, 2015).

1.2The correct over view of all sources of law in United kingdom.
In working onto all the laws and systems in any organisation or an country one needs to
have many types of stipulated organisational laws and reforms for workings. Its impossible to
coordinate all things unless one can make reforms related to all such reforms. Since the area to
cover by the government is do huge they have to depend upon various sources to make all the
things work in pattern. Some of the common available sources are to be discussed below:
 Parliaments act: It is one of the most crucial source as it has most of the powers in
authority in country. They are considered to be highest authority in nation and have to
provide several circumstantial conditions which shall be done as per he legal abiding and
rule power given by the environment. The procedure to formulate law is to first pass a
draft bill through house of lords and commons and then final signature of approve is done
by royal Queen. This has supreme power in their hands and no other power of authority
can over rule its judgement (Ball 2015).
 European courts: Its also very important source of law as it provides different
adjudications and judgement which is given as per the guidelines in environment. They
have given solutions to things which are done as per the environment in well beings of
the concurrent regulations and be present in the environment and with changes in society,
they have made laws which will best work in benefit of organisation. Almost half of laws
which are created by them are in favour of society and keeping correct perspectives of
making it legalise in the country. They have created several laws after looking upon the
condition of society and direct implementations of them are done.
 Common law: In this common law and formative regulation, it was started in the kings
rulings where the final rule given by the king was considered to be followed by all its
nation people. In this all cases were treated different and decisions were given as per
condition in case. This was later picked p by government and in present times if a case or
scenario is not as per the markings in the environment a different solution is given which
is accepted by government. Some times the laws are so much more implemented in
nature that government creates it into an legit laws in act of parliament (Allen, 2017).
 International court: it is a body of international well being and present in the case
where committee of united nations and they have to be up to the mark of responsibility
and for commerce law for correctly maintaining peace between the different nations.

Here, the sole purpose of is to maintain peace and harmony in the country and the
following propositions which have to be marked are as per the guidelines made in the
environment.
1.3 Provide role of government in creating laws and how does the correct workings of statutory
and common law is applied.
In UK there are several decisions which are taken on the basis of several stipulations
which can work as per the working environment. Their are many changes which are required in
law due to not much issues in the environment and creating many aspects as per workings of all
legal aspects. The draft bill is commenced by any party and is presented in the parliament and
later it is being stipulated in the country for legal accusations and oppositions makes opinions
about it (Blair and Stout, 2017). The procedure mentioned below are stages by which a draft bill
is converted into an act of parliament. The detail process is for formulating new laws and
regulations in laws within the united kingdom are mentioned below:
 First Reading: Its the first stage of drafting an draft bill and entering into the parliament
with it for simple discussion.
 Second Reading: its the later discussion over he draft bill that such kind of act shall be
entertained in parliament or not. Their is a detailed discussion held for basic
understanding of this law and the real purpose of passing it.
 Committee stage: this stage discusses new changes which can be added to the bill, plus
they have to connect this to a purpose. That is the use of how it will help the environment
and be capable enough for working in society.
 Report Stage: this stage is all about sending feedback and proper discussion report of the
bill. They have to give correct feedback on the analysis done on the topic.
 Third Reading: Its most crucial stage, as it decides weather the bill will be forwarded to
the next stage or not. here the basic role of critical discussion over the bill and deep
analysis of the fact tat their shall be no new changes added to it after this stage.
 House of Lords: All the stages which are followed below are repeated here and in this
case it cannot be stipulated once sent for the last stage. Here also a proper discussion is
made so that they can create the correct workings in the bill and make it in the total
favour of helping the society (Friedman, 2017).

 Royal Assent: this is final stage of making a bill into an act in books of parliament. Their
are several signatures without which it cannot be passes and the final one is done by the
royal queen.
1.4 Explain how statutory and common law are applied in court.
Statutory law: this law is the sole creator of making all the strict rules and regulations in
country. They are not flexible in nature and do not provide any type of differentiation which
shall be incompetent in nature. This can appear as a matter where things can work as per
guidelines and cannot be concluded without correct guidelines to public. They are rigid in nature
and cannot be much manipulated on many grounds.
Common law: this is created for the betterment of society. In case any scenario which appears
and needs to be concluded by making several laws and solutions. in kings era all cases were
treated differently and make them as per the guidelines of the authority of king. this was later
adapted by government as they felt that some case laws have to be various and should be
concluded as creating laws. This is a good concept to apply in case laws (Hansmann and
Kraakman, 2017).
1.5 The key legislation, regulations and standards that should be in the new business needs.
Its very important for all legal organisations to work with correct follow of legislation,
regulation and standards of the company and law created by the government. Here, they can
provide fact where the company needs more work and be aware of the fact that several concepts
which should be understood correctly can be done on analysing standards and increasing them as
the society and development of organisation increases (Harner and Rhee 2014).
Legislation- The legislation plays a very important role in acquiring all the business ideas
and approached which have to be made under legal rules and stages. This all procure is
completed in the parliament and all the legal discussion re completed by the members of
parliament. A newly established business is required to have the knowledge about number of
main legislations which are as follows:
 Employment law- Every business organisation is required to appoint employees in order
to achieve the goals and objectives. Therefore, it becomes imperative to bring their rights
in the policy which include minimum wage, leaves such as paid, maternity, paternity,
termination of employment and many more.

 Companies Act, 2006- This act is for the companies which are incorporating in UK.
Every company is required get itself registered under this act for obtaining the status of a
company. It provides laws governing the activities of the entity and has to be followed
from the time of formation to the dissolution.
 Contract Act- This act is for the contracts that are going to be made by a new
organisation. Contracts are executed to carry the specified activities which are mentioned
in them. Furthermore, it helps in providing a legal support to the business entities.
Regulations- Regulations are created to keep all the legal bodies and criteria in proper
alignment and keep levels of laws in correct pace. Regulations help in maintaining all laws in
correct reformative and provide the correct stipulations and make all such environment have to
be concluded correctly. Some of the regulations for new business are as follows:
 Product safety- This regulation provides the minimum criteria that a business has to
abide by before selling the products to the customers. Since, the profit is earned because
of the quality, there should be adequate safety.
 Register the business- This means that every business is required to get itself registered
before it commences its business activities. This gives the confidence and trust in the
customers to make deals.
 Insurance- Every business should have the necessary insurance in order to protect the
assets. This is to have safety against the losses that occur due to contingency.
Standards- Standards are maintained for the correct prepositions in the country, any
business organisations have to be concluded for correct stipulations and have properly
coordinated in the regulations. The standards are to be maintained by the organisation for the
correct working zones in the environment.
 Quality management standard- This is the standards for helping the business in
meeting the quality of the products. This is to improve customer satisfaction which
ultimately increase the internal efficiency.
 Environmental management standard- This standard is for enhancing the control in
the organisation which increases the environmental performance. This is to increase the
environmental responsibility.

1.6 Potential impact of such implications on business.
In several organisations it is very important to implicate laws and each aspect shall be
legally bind to protect them in case of any stipulations. Sometimes these laws can become
burden on working criteria of organisation and hence can influence business in both negative and
positive aspects. Some major laws which impact over organisations are mentioned below:
 Contract law: These are created for the better contractual agreement in the business.
When two people commence a n agreement in business. They have to make agreement as
per terms and conditions of company. Their are many issue which have to be stipulated as
guiding the regulations. This law is for protecting people in case of any dispute or breach
of contract. The negative aspect is that its a lot of time taking in nature plus due to this
there are several repercussions related to it. Time taking plus due to this it takes a lot of
delay in business workings (Liu, 2017).
 Copyright law: this law is created for protection of individuals and organisations in case
of any breach. In case any person uses or misuses copyright trade mark of some pattern
work or any kind of business related aspects without prior permission , they can get sued
for making benefits from the brand. Here, in case such incident happens they can give
many exchange changes due to guidelines and copyright laws for correct legal working
 Employment law: This law is for correct stipulations, which has to be under the correct
rules and guide by law. This is created to protect employees and employees from any
kind of issues which are created because of ethical code laws of workings.
1.7 Give a critical reflection of united kingdom legal system with examples which can provide
strengths and weakness.
The legal laws and regulations are explained quite properly in UK. Its very systematic in nature
so that such type of incidents occur can be critically acquired for business organisations, and
make their procedures more or less complex in nature. The second analysis is that several
counties are suffering because government policies are either not updated or not created only. In
UK this issue does not arise as government is very much stipulated of the fact that certain
guidelines have to be concluded by them only. The only negative aspect one can point out here is
that their shall be more laws which are connected to present problem in country and they should
implement such things with looking at the parties and individuals (Picciotto, 2017).

of the firm. She has been communicated by a friend Daisy, who operates her own dress making
business is she could do her bookkeeping in her extra time. According to the employment
legislation, contract of employment is based on the determinations of the company. If there is not
any contract among employee and organisation, in this condition the last determination is always
of employees so that they can effectively work for various companies. Accordant to the given
case, there is not any kind of terms and conditions regarding dual employment. By monitoring all
the condition, Charloytte have decided to work with several firm inappropriate way. Their are
no such restrictions over her to have any such types of issues while working in both the
organisations. It totally depends on her to be loyal to both sides and do not stipulate here working
quality because of being hap-hazard due to working a lot. This income will be like an extra
income for her in late future (Wilson and Sipe, 2014).

organisation have not removed the workers from their company but the firm does not have the
power to force employees that they will perform their skills and knowledge in new place in
which they are getting offer. In this rule sand regulations of business and employment law will

its believed that the company should have and informed the employee about such construction
work but he was still being offered a job in the organisation which states that there are many

options he had but did not choose. In this case no such claim will be received as it is the mistake
of both parties and no innocent party is involved in this.
Different source of legal advise

consider numerous transactions to be made. Engagement of number of people and groups of
individuals in a business vantages to artefact of conflicts cause to deviation of sentiment of for
other matters. To minimise issues several approaches can be utilised and the best suitable among
them is enforced. One of the major implementation of legal advise is through courts abolished in
the legal method of the nation to solve conflicts (Wilson and Sipe, 2014).
