Following a number of major accidents involving industrial activities (including those at Flixborough, Humberside in 1974; Beek, the Netherlands in 1975; and Seveso and Manfredonia in Italy in 1976), the EC issued a Directive on Major Accident Hazards.

The White Paper goes on to emphasize: β€˜ It is the loss of liberty involved in carrying out the terms of the order rather than the activities carried out during the order which is the punishment ’ (p. 18, para. 4.4).
The punitive approach anticipated for the Probation Service in the White Paper is underpinned by a definition of punishment that resides β€˜ in the restrictions on liberty and in the enforcement of the orders ’.
Notwithstanding the popular appeal and political capital to be derived from such a humane -sounding statement, this definition is nevertheless at variance with the traditional understanding of the meaning of punishment.

Of course, one cannot be adamant about whether they merit the label β€˜ murder ’, because that is a question of drawing the line between murder and manslaughter, which is not susceptible of any precise resolution.
There are powerful arguments in favour of saying that there are other killings where an intent to kill cannot be established, and yet where the moral or social culpability is equal to that in most intentional killings.
It is hard to argue conclusively that the category of murder should be smaller or larger (unless the death penalty or a mandatory life sentence follows); it is a question of social judgment.

There are great difficulties in assessing health effects, however, since exposure varies greatly from house to house within small neighbourhoods.
The gas is trapped in well-insulated houses and is produced by the decay of uranium in rocks and soil; thus it has been measured at high concentrations in parts of Cornwall and Devon.

Indeed, many systems of criminal law impose a mandatory sentence for murder (or whatever the highest form of homicide is called in that system).

Moreover, the borderlines between the various degrees would raise questions of law, which would provide much opportunity for legal argument and for appeals.
Contrast this with the position in jurisdictions where there are three or more degrees of homicide: pleas of guilty to first- and second -degree murders would be less frequent, since there would be the possibility of argument in court (if no bargain was struck beforehand between prosecution and defence), and the defence might succeed in persuading the jury to reduce the degree of the killing.

The final symbolic cue used to make sense of the 1980–1 protests is more difficult to categorize, but its basic meaning can be captured by the term β€˜ political marginality ’.
While a number of discussions of the roots of urban unrest in the United States have noted the salience of political marginality in determining participation in violent protests (Skolnick, 1969; Fogelson, 1971; Edelman, 1971; Knopf, 1975), this issue has received relatively little attention in Britain.

In one recent case the victim of a stabbing died two and a half years after the incident, having been kept on a life-support machine for almost the entire time.
Nowadays the problem is quite the reverse: medical science is generally able to determine whether D's conduct caused the death, and innovations such as life -support machines mean that life can be prolonged for months and years in some instances.
In principle, it seems unjust that a homicide conviction should not be possible in such a case, if all the other elements can be established and only the β€˜ year and a day ’ rule stands in the way.

If the point of distinguishing murder from manslaughter is to mark out the most heinous group of killings for the extra stigma of a murder conviction, it can be argued that the β€˜ grievous bodily harm ’ rule draws the line too low.
Does the β€˜ grievous bodily harm ’ rule extend the definition of murder too far?
In terms of principle, the rule requires justification because it departs from the principle of correspondence (see Chapter 5.2(a)), namely that the fault element in a crime should relate to the consequences prohibited by that crime.

It argued that in talking about inner cities it was vital to think in terms not just of individuals, but of society; that the multiple deprivations of the worst hit areas affected all the residents; that the consequences included a pervasive sense of neglect and decay, a decline in community spirit, a low standard of neighbourhood facilities, and an increase in crime and vandalism; and that, without government intervention, the future was one of reduced job opportunities, deteriorating housing, and a decline in public services.
A key aspect of the 1977 White Paper was the stress it placed on the wider effects of poverty: that it was not just those with acute needs who suffered.
The document, and the legislation that derived from it, pointed to a positively discriminatory approach: with both central and local government supplementing existing programmes in such a way as to strengthen local economies, as well as the physical and social environment.

They argued that existing maps and digitized files from them are unable to meet these needs at global or regional scale and only remote sensing could help in the short term: the availability of stereometric data from the French SPOT satellite has already led to proposals for automated creation of global digital elevation models with a spatial (XY) resolution of about 30 m (Muller 1989).
Recognizing this, NASA (1988a) concluded that forthcoming global science projects would need land surface altitude data at three resolutions: 1 km resolution in XY and 10–100 m resolution in Z on a global basis, 100 m XY resolution and 1–10 m resolution in Z for regional databases and 10 m XY resolution and 0.1–1 m in Z for local studies.
