European Community Law

It is a great privilege for me to give this lecture in honour of Lord Mackenzie-Stuart. I frequently had the privilege of appearing before him as counsel when he was judge at the European Court of Justice and also from 1984 to 1988 when he was President of the Court. It was on his departure from the Court in 1988 that I went to the Court as advocate general.Lord Mackenzie-Stuart, who has long been interested in the influence of European Community law on public law in the United Kingdom, had recently published a paper entitled “Recent developments in English administrative law—the impact of Europe?” In returning to that theme this evening I should like to update the story of developments in English administrative law where there may be a European impact. I will also venture, perhaps over-ambitiously, to look briefly at the new constitutional reforms, and to see if there may be a European impact there too.

Program Expansion

This article examines the dynamics of the dismantling of a large US federal grant-in-aid program, the Public Service Employment Program (PSEP), to determine whether the same factors that affect program expansion affect program contraction, and in a similar manner. Specifically, an examination is made of: (1) the impact local fiscal and political pressures have on the reactions of three groups of local policymakers (elected officials; PSEP administrators; administrators of agencies employing PSEP workers); and (2) the relationship between these policymakers' reactions and changes in PSEP objectives. The units of analysis are forty-two local governments located across the USA (a representative sample). The time frame of the analysis is December 1979–December 1980—a period of rapid phaseout in the PSEP. The results show that the same factors which dictate the actions of different sets of policymakers during program expansion also determine their relative levels of involvement in the phaseout period and their policy preferences (PSEP objectives) during retrenchment. The findings also suggest that local governments with long histories of federal program participation have developed fairly sophisticated reactive strategies, since phaseouts are expected events in the lives of most federal programs. These reactive strategies vary according to the economic and political conditions existing at the time of the mandated phaseout.

European Community Law

Although the european Community Treaty does not contain a specific chapter or article dedicated to the audiovisual sector, European Community law has had a significant impact on the way in which Member States regulate their film and television industries. Given the commercial nature and international reach of many media goods and services this should not be surprising, but Community oversight has here been particularly controversial because of the importance ascribed to cultural and political considerations. This article examines how such considerations have been accommodated within the European Community legal system and the impact that Community law has had on domestic audiovisual policies in practice. It focuses on those measures introduced by states to support their domestic film and television industries and to ensure that domestic audiences have access to films and television programmes that are culturally relevant and meaningful.
