s: Legal Research Reports: Protection of Indigenous Heritage By content.govdelivery.com Published On :: Thu, 01 Aug 2019 09:29:03 -0500 The Law Library of Congress is proud to present the report, Protection of Indigenous Heritage. This report surveys 11 jurisdictions on the legislative and policy frameworks affecting the protection of sacred places of indigenous peoples, their graves, remains, related artifacts, and indigenous cultural property generally. In the United States, a 1990 law, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) addresses the identification, repatriation, protection, regulated excavation, and custody of indigenous human remains and related cultural objects. The individual surveys in this report reflect research on whether there are corresponding laws in the selected jurisdictions similar to NAGPRA, and more generally discuss the protection of indigenous cultural patrimony. This report is one of many prepared by the Law Library of Congress.

s: Legal Research Reports:The Revocation of Huguenot Rights to French Citizenship By content.govdelivery.com Published On :: Wed, 06 Nov 2019 15:40:04 -0600 The Law Library of Congress is proud to present the report, The Revocation of Huguenot Rights to French Citizenship The 1685 revocation of the Edict of Nantes deprived French Protestants, otherwise known as the Huguenots, of all religious and civil liberties. This led to the widespread persecution of Huguenots, and over 400,000 emigrated from France as a result. Religious freedom was re-established during the French Revolution, and a 1790 law provided that descendants of French individuals who had fled the country due to religious persecution had a right to settle in France and claim French citizenship. This rule, confirmed in a slightly amended form in 1889, remained applicable until 1945, when the French Citizenship Code abrogated almost all prior legislation on the matter of citizenship, including the laws of 1790 and 1889. The 1945 French Citizenship Code was adopted by way of an ordonnance, which is, in this context, an act of delegated legislation. The French Constitution allows, under certain conditions, the executive branch to legislate in lieu of Parliament. These acts of legislation, which are subject to both prior authorization and later confirmation by Parliament, are called ordonnances. Once an ordonnance has been ratified or confirmed by Parliament, it becomes the equivalent of a law. An ordonnance may amend or entirely abrogate prior legislation. The concept of delegated legislation has existed in France for a long time, under different names. However, the 1945 ordonnance that instituted the then-new French Citizenship Code never authorized by Parliament, because France had no Parliament to speak of between July 1940 and October 1945. It does not appear that the legality and legitimacy of the ordonnances of 1945 were ever challenged, and French courts treat them as a valid exercise of legislative authority. The 1945 ordonnance which abrogated the right to French citizenship for descendants of Huguenots should therefore be seen as a valid piece of legislation under French law.

s: Legal Research Reports: Legal Restrictions on Religious Slaughter of Animals in Europe By www.loc.gov Published On :: Wed, 13 Nov 2019 14:38:20 -0600 The Law Library of Congress is proud to present the report, Legal Restrictions on Religious Slaughter of Animals in Europe.

All European countries that do not allow kosher or halal slaughter of animals are included; some but not all countries that permit such slaughter subject to regulation are also included. In addition, the report summarizes a February 2019 European Court of Justice decision on religious slaughter and organic labeling. This report is one of the many prepared by the Law Library of Congress.

s: Legal Research Reports: Supply Chain Regulation of Pharmaceutical Samples By www.loc.gov Published On :: Wed, 20 Nov 2019 09:50:14 -0600 The Law Library of Congress is proud to present the report, Supply Chain Regulation of Pharmaceutical Samples. This research surveys several countries’ regulations regarding “serialization” of pharmaceutical products and whether these regulations apply to free medicinal product samples. The attached reports explore the specific “track and trace” or “serialization” laws and regulations in the European Union, Japan, and Turkey. While technical aspects of serialization differ across jurisdictions, one widely used benchmark for legislation is the voluntary GS1 standards, and specifically the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN). Globally, it is estimated that 70 countries have based their regulatory requirements for traceability of pharmaceuticals on these standards. This report is one of the many prepared by the Law Library of Congress.
