4.1. Customs Law in the U.K. 

Read the following text:

One of the basic features of customs la w is the imposition of import duty as aform of indirect taxation. There is also provision in the EC (EuropeanCommunity) customs code

 

for the collection of export duty, but in practice

these are rarely applied. Advanced economies perceive a charge on exports as adisincentive, which puts a brake on home industries." However, they havefeatured in the form of agricultural levies and other export charges  as adisincentive, which puts a brake on home industries." However, they havefeatured in the form of agricultural levies and other export charges appliedunder the common agricultural policy of the EC. Duties which are legally owedto a national customs authority give rise to a customs debt. In all cases withinmember states these are based on the customs tariff of the EC (art. 20, ECcustoms code). In the UK this takes the form of the integrated tariff of the UKknown shortly as “the tariff.”

Broadly this deals with the nomenclature of goods: rates and other items ofcharge normally applicable to goods covered by the nomenclature; preferentialtariff arrangements; suspensive measures providing for reduction in or relieffrom certain import duties; and other tariff measures. A key consideration inarriving at import duty liability is the origin of goods, and the categoriesdefined as 'goods wholly obtained in a country' are set out at art. 23 of the ECcustoms code. Goods whose production involved more than one country shallbe considered to originate in the country where they underwent their lastsubstantial, economically justified processing or working in an undertakingequipped for that purpose and resulting in the manufacture of a new product or

representing an important stage of manufacture. The rules on preferentialorigin are in general laid down in the particular agreement setting up thepreferential arrangement.

Another key customs discipline is valuation, which is the subject of Chapter 3of the EC customs code. A complex series of rules has been devised to arrive atthe correct value on importation. These are to be applied ill sequence until theappropriate rule is applied. Art. 33 of the code sets out certain charges whichare not to be included in the customs valuation, provided that they are shownseparately from the price actually payable. These matters include transportationafter arrival at the port, of importation, post-importation charges for

construction, erection, assembly etc., and certain charges for interest under afinancing arrangement.

(from A Trading Nation, by Gavin McFarlaine, in the Gazette, 24 March 1993,p. 17)

4.2.  Immigration Law

Read the following text:

The Immigration Act 1971 gives an immigration officer (IO) administrativepowers to detain parallel to the criminal powers to arrest without warrant. Theformer are often used when prosecution is not considered necessary and as aquicker way to remove/deport the suspect without giving him or her the rightof hearing in a criminal court.

A suspect in custody on an immigration matter will have been detained in one

of the following ways:a)  Arrested for a non-immigration criminal offence and then suspected of anImmigration Act offence;

b)  Arrested by the police or the immigration service for an Immigration Act

offence;

c) 

Detained in a police station on behalf of the immigration service as no otherplace is available for detention.

Both police and immigration officers have the power to arrest in respect of themost common offences. In all the above situations, the suspect has the rightunder the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 to consult a solicitor at anytime and have a person notified of his or her detention.

The most common Immigration Act offences are:

(1)  Overstaying period of leave or failing to observe a condition of the leave,

e.g. working in breach of landing conditions (summary offence only).Overstayers cannot also be guilty of working in breach of landing conditions.

(2) 

Knowingly entering the UK in breach of a deportation order or withoutleave of an immigration officer - commonly known as illegal entry. Anexample of someone who will be treated as an illegal entrant is if he or sheobtained an entry clearance visa as a student but on arrival had no intention ofstudying, never enrolled at college and started working instead. Clearly thatperson deceived the entry clearance officer or JO as to his or her real intentionson coming to the UK and hence entered the country illegally (summary offence

only).Other less common offences such as failing to comply with a restrictionimposed on entry, e.g. residence at a particular address or employment in aspecified job are not often prosecuted.

In general, prosecutions under the Immigration Act 1931 are rare as, after theinitial criminal detention, the immigration service prefers to use itsadministrative powers of detention and subsequent removal/deportation,

in the Gazette 90/2, 13 January 1993, p. 17).

Corruption

Regarded as a social phenomenon, corruption is the picture of moral andspiritual decay; it represents a complex social problem, whose socialconsequences and solving methods are of interest for the public opinionand for the institutionalized social control. The phenomenon ofcorruption includes all acts and actions of juridical persons who, bytaking advantage of their social position, act for obtaining somepersonal advantages by illicit means, giving up to the due respect forlaw and morals as a picture of the decay of the society. In Romania,according to the penal system, corruption is a main concept designatingthe infringement of illegal or immoral transposing of the norms onpublic officials. The term 'corruption' incriminates various acts, in orderto obtain illicit advantages. Corruption is a serious and dangerousphenomenon, which is able to undermine the structures of power, theachievement of the economic reform, the growth of peoples' livingstandard and the hope for an evolution forwards a lawful state. Some ofthe causes that generate and offer conditions for corruption are:

- the lack of legislation in the period of transition and the adoption ofthe laws, which present gaps or permit interpretation of someprovisions;

- the tendency of public or private employees to gain capital by usingillicit methods;

- the setting up and functioning of a great number of small companies

without a solid capital, which defraud the state's campaign, by takingover an underevaluated patrimony and functioning with employees ofthe companies mentioned, paid by the state, their activity being in factreduced at casing allowances (without developing any activity);

- the request of credits, some in foreign currency, without interest andfor long terms;

- sale, grant, granting, tenancy of assets shops and machinery withoutauction;

- the lack of a proper management training, which allowed the so called

foreign partners to penetrate easily without bringing any capita! orlicenses, technologies, know-how;

- concluding of foreign trade contracts and delivery of goods withoutchecking the financial status of their foreign commercial partners.

Other causes generating corruption acts are:

- the fail of the State's authority;- the decay of the living standard, the alteration of moral judgement;

- the lack of efficient controlling of the key factors;

- the diminishing of the population's confidence in social institutionsand values;

- the partial adaptation of the legislation to the economic and socialconditions.

There are also causes that are clearly underlined and are mutually condi-tioned:

- the will of the individual for a quick and effortless enrichment by anymeans for some of them;

- on the other hand, restrictions are including various lacks, which shallfacilitate the appearance of corruption.

Two unwritten laws of the economy that are valid through all periodsand systems are: lacks generate speculation and prohibition is doubling

consumption.  Corruption is not a lonely phenomenon, separated orisolated from other criminal unusual phenomena, but is closely linkedand interdependent with these. Situations for the growth of corruptionand their factors at present and in the future are: illegal advantages inthe field of privatization, conclusion of governmental contracts, issuingof licenses, permits by governmental agencies, issuing import or exportlicenses, granting by governmental financial support, hierarchicalpromotion based on personal relations and nepotism, the abusive use ofgovernmental assets and properties, purchasing of groans and otherassets, denial of social order and law, generalized poverty, authority andgood faith crisis, consisting in the diminution of the social and legalcontrols, decentralization of decisions and administrative structures,functional autonomy, economic liberalization and the delay in enforcingmeasures against law infringement. Forms of corruption are registeredat administrative, economic, political level and not only corruption ispresent in all social areas, like health, culture, education or bank system.The main areas where corruption appears are:

- political corruption - appears as pressing and even blackmailing publicofficials for determining them to adopt illegal decisions or very close tolegal hints. It is determined by the need of funds, the numerous politicalparties spending more money than their financial possibilities due tounlimited financial needs;

- administrative corruption - is to be seen as a large spectrum of acts ofpublic official and ending with defalcating public fortune for privateinterest - by tapping officials of the public administration;

- economic (professional) corruption - is aiming to preferential

assistance for clients and also determining employees of competingcompanies to betray the interest of their employer.

There are many aspects where corruption comes to light:

- banking system (credits granted generally only against bribe, acceptinguncovered payment documents or fiction guarantees;

- the underground economy shows its effects in creating black capitalunregistered inside the internal gross product;

- hidden activities in the internal and official gross product;

- the production controlled by criminal groups;

- salaries paid for services rendered for private persons, without payingthe legal taxes;

- commercialization of own product;

- building private houses without registering;

- clandestine production and commercialization of alcohol drugs;

- avoiding payment of real domestic services (water, electricity);- illegal rent of houses;

- employment of staff without respecting the legal provisions;

- unregistered business between companies; prostitution, procurring andillegal abortion;

- invisible incomes;

- clandestine gambling;

- traffic with currency;

- commercialization of goods resulted from crime;

- conclusion of loans outside the bank system;

- supplementary payment for illegally attaining goods or services (cor-ruption).

These are only a small number of aspects that must be taken intoaccount to stop spreading of corruption.
