country (Kaplan, Weisberg and Binder, 2014). There has been various acts and laws which has
imposed by HMRC, Central and State government to protect the legal culture and fair
jurisdiction to their citizens. Hence, in the present report there will be discussion based on the
legislative environment in UK and various laws which in consideration to protect human rights,
employee rights, business or corporation obstacles. The report will shed some lights over the role
of government in presenting the laws as well as methods of implication of such laws in country.
SECTION 1
P1 English legal system structure and relevant laws
To protect the fraudulent acts and crime rate in country the government has various
functional areas as well as they have segmented the legislature in three major parts such as
central government, local or state. However with the help of such legislative authorities the
implication of law as well as control over the legal environment of UK becomes satisfactory.
Hence, HMRC is the main governmental body of UK which in turn access over all the legal
environment of country (Kaufman and Taras, 2016). With the help of such segmentation the
government will be beneficial in handling such unlawful acts as well as cure the individual
rights. However, in terms with the legislative environment in nation here is some jurisdiction
authority which helps in overcoming any corporate or individual obstacles such as:
Supreme Court: This is the top level jurisdiction authority of England which in turn
operates to handle the cases of criminal acts or major crime in the country. Hence, the court was
established on 1st October 2009 with the help of constitutional reform act 2005 which helps in
facilitating the adequate framework to such court. However, the court is not only deals in the
hearing related with the England but it execute the cases of Wales, Northern Ireland as well as
Scotland.

Court of appeal: The court deals in resolving the issues of the two major parts of the
country such as civil and criminal acts. These major jurisdiction legislatures in UK, but less than
Supreme Court. Hence, the operational are of such court is to facilitate the laws and acts which
are relevant with the unlawful and unauthenticated crimes held in the national boundaries
(Veldman and Willmott, 2016). The hearings relevant with the criminal cases are to be heard by
the Court of appeal in Supreme Court while the civil cases which are relevant with the family
issues such as dispute in ancestors property, divorce, custody etc. are normally handle by High
Court or the county court of UK.
Crown court: The main or major issues in the country which are related to the criminal
acts such as robbery, murder or rap cases are heard by this court (Lock QC, Blundell and Mills,
2016). Hence, such court will hear the appeals from magistrate’s court and facilitated the
favorable jurisdiction to them. However, the court hears the cases of all the relevant courtiers
such as Northern Ireland, Scotland Wales and England.
High court of justice: The justice relevant he court which mainly resolves the cases of
family problems, Queen’s Bench division, chancery etc. Hence, the motive of this court to
facilitate citizens with the fair judgments and the proper solutions to their conflicts.
Magistrates’ court: These courts are located in the various states or locality which in turn helps
in resolving the cases related with family and criminal acts in such locations as give their initial
level of jurisdiction to resolve such issues (Hong, Glaister and Frecknall-Hughes, 2016). Hence,
with the help of this court maximum of the cases or obstacles are solved on their first stage if it
didn’t get handled by such court than it moved to the crown court. However, there will be small
time gap between hearings and the judgments.
County court: the court facilitates judgments relevant with the obstacles which are
relevant with the non criminal cases such as corporate of social issues (Paolella and Durand,
2016). Hence, these are mainly fraud, penalty or punishments which are to be made on the fixed
amount to the government o breaking of any law or to the victim party.

legal solutions over their ay obstacle such as European convention laws which in turn helps in
facilitating the human rights, health and safety to employees of the organization. On the other
side the European Union helps in improving the financial position or standard of the employees
or workers in the organization (Armour and et.al., 2017). Thus, the other corporate laws such as
common and statutory laws which in turn presenting the jurisdiction as, common laws was built
on the basis of the past real cases and the precedents which in turn become example for the
current jurisdiction to understand the case and take necessary steps to resolve such problems.
Thus, statutory laws deals in presenting the legal structure for the health and security of the
citizens, employees or any individual in the particular location of anywhere in the national
boundaries.
P2 Analyzing the common and statutory law as well as role of UK government
In accordance with the fair legislations in the country there is need to have the acceptance
or mutual understanding over the need of such jurisdictional changes in the country. Hence, on

majority of the votes were made in favor that it will be transferred to the next stage and then be
passed by the parliament of UK.
Committee: the bill will be passed to the house of committee where the bills were the deep
examination of the bill and the relevant acts or documents were analyzed. However, there will be
analysis based on the norms and regulations as well as various acts included in such bills. Hence,
after presenting such bills there will be constitution of various amendments to such act were
made (Lock QC, Blundell and Mills, 2016).
Report: By considering the various amendments and the detailed examination of such
bill it was than transferred again to the house of parliament (Rudin and et.al., 2016).

well as helps in making the adequate solutions for society or corporations. However, on the other
side statutory laws facilitates the adequate human rights as well as employee rights in the

In accordance with the case of that miner girl who is being employed in the restaurant

workplace and leaders. Hence, it can be said that the whole responsibility was laid over the
leader or supervisor because he got the responsibility to execute the workers or workplace

However, the other obstacle occurs that the girl was a minor and under the child act it is totally
