Population Aging And Legal Retirement Age analyzes the effects of population aging on the preferred legal retirement age. Under a defined contribution scheme aging lowers the preferred legal http://ideas.repec.org/p/gra/wpaper/05-16.html
Extractions: This paper analyzes the effects of population aging on the preferred legal retirement age. What is revealed is the crucial role that the indirect âmacroâ effects resulting from a change in the legal retirement age play in the optimal decision. Two Social Security systems are studied. Under a defined contribution scheme aging lowers the preferred legal retirement age. However, under a defined pension scheme the retirement age is delayed. This result shows the relevance of correctly choosing the parameter affected by the dependency ratio in the design of the Social Security programme.

The views expressed herein are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent the views of the Department of Justice Canada. PDF Document This project was designed to improve the level of legal aid service to Aboriginal people in New Brunswick. The project was implemented on an experimental basis in Kent County, New Brunswick to serve Aboriginal people from the Big Cove, Buctouche, and Indian Island First Nations communities. The need for a different approach to meeting the needs of native people became apparent with the large number of adjournments required by Aboriginal people at first appearance court. It was suspected that the difficulty in moving legal matters of Aboriginal people through the court reflected a number of difficulties experienced by Natives in communicating with the non-Aboriginal lawyers providing regular duty counsel service. In order to explore the issues more carefully, and at the same time to put in place immediate steps to address the situation, an Aboriginal lawyer was hired to provide duty counsel service for Aboriginal people in the provincial court at Richibucto. The lawyer spoke Mi'Kmaq, the Aboriginal language of the region. The project commenced in December 1998. The project was supported in part by a contribution from the Department of Justice Canada, and monitored during the first year by the Research and Statistics Division of the federal Department of Justice.

Extractions: Other articles have cited this article Abstract Methods Results ... More articles on Infectious diseases and parasitology Abstract Objective: To determine attitudes towards doctors and hospitals as data custodians, and patients' experiences of unauthorised information releases from health services. Results: 288 survey participants (9.6%) were not confident that healthcare providers keep and use information responsibly, 108 (3.6%) reported that healthcare providers had released information without their consent (although at least 48 of these disclosures were legally defensible), and 57 (1.9%) reported harm arising from unauthorised disclosures by health services. Projecting these findings to the South Australian population, over 2000 people experienced harm arising from unauthorised information release in 1999. However, in the same period, there were fewer than 20 formal complaints to major agencies (eg, Ombudsman, Medical Board).

Extractions: "Prisoners sentenced for drug offenses constituted the largest group of Federal inmates (55%) in 2001, down from 60% in 1995 (table 18). On September 30, 2001, the date of the latest available data in the Federal Justice Statistics Program, Federal prisons held 78,501 sentenced drug offenders, compared to 52,782 in 1995." "Between 1984 and 1999, the number of defendants charged with a drug offense in U.S. district courts increased about 3% annually, on average, from 11,854 to 29,306." "As a result of increased prosecutions and longer time served in prison, the number of drug offenders in Federal prisons increased more than 12% annually, on average, from 14,976 during 1986 to 68,360 during 1999." "In 1995, 23% of state prisoners were incarcerated for drug offenses in contrast to 9% of drug offenders in state prisons in 1986. In fact, the proportion of drug offenders in the state prison population nearly tripled by 1990, when it reached 21%, and has remained at close to that level since then. The proportion of federal prisoners held for drug violations doubled during the past 10 years. In 1985, 34% of federal prisoners were incarcerated for drug violations. By 1995, the proportion had risen to 60%."
