The problem of domestic violence (DV) in Malaysia has not yet been completely curbed. A significant increase in DV cases can be seen during the period of the Movement Control Order (MCO). This phenomenon is of great concern as the COVID19 pandemic is not over and the potential for MCO directives on areas with an increase in COVID19 cases is high. This paper aims to discuss the protection afforded to DV victims in Malaysia by the Domestic Violence Act 1994 (Act 521) (AKRT 1994). Using a descriptive approach and library research, the provisions of AKRT 1994 are critically analyzed. The findings of the study show that the amendments to AKRT 1994 in 2017 have improved the existing act. Among the main improvements are the expansion of the scope and definition of KRT as well as the introduction of the Emergency Protection Order (EPO). As a result, at present, not only victims of physical abuse, victims of emotional, psychological, and financial abuse are also eligible for protection under AKRT. In addition, victims can also seek immediate protection through EPO as it does not require the court’s permission which would normally be time-consuming. This 2017 amendment makes AKRT more proactive because it has taken into account the various problems faced by DV victims over the years. However, to make AKRT effective, victims need to have the courage to come forward to seek protection and justice.

This chapter discusses the circumstances in which an order under the Family Law Act 1996 (FLA 1996) will be made without notice to the other party to proceedings; and the availability and methods of enforcement of orders made under the FLA 1996. A client who requires protection urgently is dealt with by applying for an order without notice. The court can only make an order without notice if there is risk of significant harm to the applicant, or the applicant will be deterred from pursuing the application, or the respondent is avoiding service. Duration of a without notice order is explained, as well as enforcing an order.

When a child is in imminent need of protection, the order used to protect the child is an emergency protection order (EPO) under s44 of the Children Act 1989. This chapter discusses the use of emergency protection orders in public law for children and examines the factors a court will consider when asked to make an emergency order. It looks at contact when an EPO is in place, duration and discharge of an application, and procedure. Case-law is used to provide guidance. It also looks at the powers available to the police when faced with a child in need of protection.

This article engages with Canadian ‘right to shelter’ discourse, with a focus on shared assumptions that do crucial work but are sometimes unstated. It offers a ‘chrono-political’ framework to organize various claims made in the courtroom, in legal academic commentary, and by homeless people themselves. People sleeping outdoors have had noteworthy success in court, preventing immediate bodily peril. However, the ‘emergency’ temporality in those cases ultimately offers a limited politics. The author evaluates proposals from legal academics who therefore prescribe court orders that aim to transcend emergency protection: the state ought proactively to provide some minimal level of shelter to everyone, thereby conjoining the emergency temporality with a longer term ‘progressive’ temporality. However, it is argued that these proposals insufficiently formulate how judges understand their institutional role and the extent to which courtroom doctrine can redirect wider neoliberal trends. Regulative assumptions about ‘gradual improvement’ in the law must themselves be interrogated. As an antipode for the courtroom emergency temporality, a ‘dissensual’ temporality is explored, not as a ‘solution,’ but as an already operant politics, one not previously explored in legal academic commentary on the ‘right to shelter.’ Never to be romanticized, the tent city is nonetheless seen to enact what Jacques Rancière terms ‘dissensus,’ in which participants stage their equality in a way that calls into question the existing arrangement of political intelligibility. Amidst present constraints, dissensus discloses an expansive nonlinear temporality that channels egalitarian predecessors, taking feasible action in the present and attempting to prefigure a more equal future dwelling arrangement.

The article offers a method for assessing the environmental risk in the territories adjacent to the planning zone of emergency protection measures around the NPP. The method is based on simulation modeling of territory pollution, which is formed at the late stage of a radiation accident and zoning of territories by risk, taking into account the characteristics of the population’s life in a potentially dangerous territory. A vector criterion of environmental risk is proposed that allows zoning these territories according to the degree of danger to the population.

This chapter explores two separate but related issues: the development of the rules for emergency protection of children, and the development of the rules that allow interim measures to be taken. With emergency protection, the chapter examines the creation and changing criteria for “place of safety warrants”, and then analyses the problems with these warrants, brought to public attention in the Orkney Child Abuse Case, which led to the Clyde Report of 1992 and the replacement of place of safety warrants with child protection orders. Interim measures have been available since the earliest child protection legislation, and the structure of the process to be followed has changed very little since 1889 to the present day, though the measures available on an interim basis have changed from warrants to interim compulsory supervision orders. The chapter ends with an examination of the definition through the years of “place of safety”.
