First reading: if the bill once present in parliament it is the first steps that is proper reading of
the senior members to find various mistakes in bill and any misprint that can cause due to error
in writing will be harm to the nations (Gitlin and Flaschen, 2016). As the house of common will
be responsible for all the bill to give reading.

Task 2
P.3 Advice on different case scenarios.
1. Collin and David’s step and other legal considerations to be taken care of by them.
As the organisation will be restricted to use the same name if already organisation is
existed in market. As the guidelines have been made for the organisation to flow thje rules and
regulation before formation of companies. Such rules and regulation have been made on the
basis of the guidelines as follows:
 if the organisation is already existed in the market with name and branding than no one
can use the same name to form a new organisation in UK.
 As the name should not be misleading to any other organisation and also it should not be
harm to society or any community in the nation. It must be carry better information about
it.
 During the registration process the name of the organisation must be cleared and the
brads logo of the organisation is not copied from any other source (Hamermesh and
Sparks III, 2015.).
The Above guidelines are the most important to follow for organisation betterment. If these laws
are not considered in organisation than huge plenty will be charge.

2. Rights carried by Sophia for employment in the firm.
In the organisations contract laws have to be considered before terminated any employees
from the job. If the organisation is not able to give valid reason than employees government can
take action against as per the laws (Brown, 2013.). These are the guideline that followed to the
organisations before dismiss to the employees:
 As the employees are not able to perform their duties in the organisation in that case
standard will be applicable on employees in which organisation can dismissed them.
 If the employees have potential to perform their occupation but they are nor ready to do it
just because of uncertainty in that scenario in that can hey can be dismiss from the job.
 If the employees are involved in mischief in due to any legal matter in organisations. If
the employees taking leave without information than organisation can take various action
against on them.
As the misconduct will be based on the organisation which can be serious or gross. As the
employer can dismissed to the employee in there typES of dismissible such as:
Fair or Unfair dismissal: The dismissal can be fair or unfair. It can be supported to
various legal document or reason die to which the worker can be dismissed. From which
the procedure of dismissing the worker followed by the leader besides form clean or
biased.
Constructive dismissal: as the employer can be think about the necessary laws in which
dismissed can be constructive if the leader has strained the worker to leave organisations
owed for reason state created by the leader (Chan, 2017). The reason can be break of
contract from the broadside of the leader, demotions, decrease of the remunerations and
other compensation, etc. Some other issues can be, modification in the locality of
announcement without superior approving or announcement to the worker, power the
worker in dangerous or undesirable position. If the power shown to the worker to leave
organisations.
Wrongful dismissal: The dismissal can be unlawful if the worker is not capable period
to serve his announcement and the written agreement between them is immediately
dismissed without any superior information to the employees..

As the case have been given in the scenario it is clear that Sophia was involved in
misconduct and employer can dismiss her without any prior notice given to them. Also
she is involved in the presenting fake medical report for the various leaves that can be
against of the polices in which employer can terminated with this reason.
3.Legal advice regarding Mrs. Khan’s contract with AD Motors.
The code of conduct are form written agreement are to be follow by both the groups concerned
in it. As the contracts can be invalid and non-existence if any of the code of conduct declared is
not precede decent. The failure can be depends on the the right of wrong groups to acquire the
agreement cost or differently can action the another groups as well. It yield the right to the
guiltless groups to not increase the owed cost and formulation to the assembly for the wrong
occurrence. The final agreement is then unmade by the judicature.
In the given case scenario, Mrs Khan came in written agreement with AD Motors where
the last mentioned had to yield work to the transport and modification several broken-down
humanities as well. The fresh accessory of the transport of the person is costlier which is not
from the local organisation (Stemler, 2013).Nevertheless, other written agreement, AD motors
utilized same accessories and set it in the vehicles. When Mrs. Khan know about the failure of
written agreement, and she forfeit the cost which was to be ready-made to AD Motors. It was the
dishonest act performed by the organization. Therefore, Mrs Khan have right to formulation to
the judicature for final agreement and acquire the harm which is form by AD Motors. Further, it
is unfeasible of purpose that fake agreement which can punish the AD Motors for his practices.
Task 3
P4 Legal solution to vocational scenario.
The more the organisation that The terms and conditions that are included in the contract
must be followed by both the parties that are involved in the contract. However, any breach from
any of the parties involved makes the contract void. Further which no other conditions included
in it can be brought into practice.
In Singh appointed PHB Ltd for the commercial enterprise of his edifice. Nevertheless,
he left and breach the written agreement subsequently additive 60% of the commercial enterprise
activity. Further, Mr. Singh accomplished the building by the unexpended substantial. Later on
the dismissed has not yet been shown in written agreement, here is no right of the commercial
enterprise groups to assertion finished the substantial. Therefore, there is no control of PHB Ltd

to action on Sing for the leftover material. Hence, no rights of the substantial will be transferral
to PHB Ltd and Mr. Singh will not be punishable in that case.
In other case scenario given for Busy Bees where a organisations has went into
devastation and Samantha is nominated as a liquidator of the organisation. The organisation do
not have capable finances in command to give their stimulate. Nevertheless, in case of
settlement, the possession clutch by the organisations are sold-out so that the possession can be
met in the better way. Further, if the administration do not clutch competent sum of money of
possession so as to fixed off its stakeholders. Therefore, in that case pro rata and orientation
supported fixed off action is acquired by the less of funds in the organisation which is Samantha
in this case scenario. In this case, Aston business society clutch the exact complaint of the
liability who has closely-held 1,80,000 to busy bees. Hence, the sum of money accepted from the
exchange of asset will be moved out to Aston business society. However, if the fixed charge
would not have been clutch by the organization, in that case, prorate based allotment would have
been performed .
P5 Justification to the answer for PHB Ltd and Busy bees scenario
PHB Ltd was not able to move with the written agreement and break it in-between hence
the written agreement was not yet been dismissed at the particular location. Therefore, they don't
have the right by PHB Ltd owed to the failure in the written agreement by them. Further,
pursuing the code of conducts issued in dismiss section of contract law, PHB Ltd clutch no right
on the provision of judicial document to Mr. Sing and take action in behalf the latter cardinal will
alone be penalized for the to the same person.
Nevertheless, in the other case scenario centring Busy bees who has been liquidated and
Samantha have been nominated as the less of funds in the organisations. She clutch all the rights
that can assistance in scope off the sum of money to the stakeholders(Mallor and Langvardt,
2014). Further, Aston enterprise society clutch set cost over the asset, that is, site of the
organization. Hence, the funds that have been raised from the sell of the premises , that is,
1,50,000 will directly be transferred to Aston business society.

the name and goodwill of the image of the involved of both the groups. It keeps the images of
the consumer integral. An mediator is chartered who occur to perceive both sides and proceeds
judgement based on it. The mediator is the group whose judgement is trustworthy by some of
the groups and believe to the opinion which have been made by him. Nevertheless, if some
groups participating in conflict is not slaked with the opinion made by the mediator then in that
lawsuit they can shift to the judicature for the settle down. The primary benefit of this approach
is that they demand not to affect in extended legal proceeding of the judicature where the suit are
held for more than expected time period. Further, the affair is besides keep private without
constraint the goodwill of organisation participating in conflicts.
The primary issuance affiliated to the mediation performing of Alternative Dispute
R(ADR) is that the mediator may departure any essential feature of the suit unmoved as he may
not clutch the psychological feature respect the susceptible affair (Posner, 2014). If the
information is not bought into heavy, it may lead to sincere abnormal in the outcome that have
distinct by the mediator.
The given case scenarios, AFG has been appointed as the mediator in order to settle down
the conflicts of both groups (Allen, 2016). The view of both the parties involved in the conflicts
is assessed by AFG Oil organisations earlier motion on to any view. The groups can analyse the
judgement supported on which they can determine that whether they neediness to trust on the
judgement of the mediator or would neediness to go to the judicature for improved agreement

The more the mediator will bring the conflicts in the organisation it will create a situation to
bring the various laws to be fulfilled. As the in some of the case which are of Sophia it can easily

understand that she guilty and organisation can dismiss her any time. If the contract law is not in
