Monitoring definition

What does Monitoring mean? Monitoring, in radiological protection practice, is the measurement of ionising radiation levels, airborne concentrations of radionuclides, surface contamination and other quantities of radioactive material, and the use of those results to evaluate potential exposures and doses.

Practice notes

Stakeholder mapping

For the legal function to grasp your organisation and contribute meaningfully to its success, it must recognise who its stakeholders are. After identification, those stakeholders should be managed by appreciating their requirements and fostering your connections with them. Simply naming stakeholders is insufficient; they need grouping by power, influence and interest so you can pinpoint the most critical stakeholders. This process is called stakeholder mapping.

This Practice Note examines stakeholder mapping, explains why recognising and mapping your stakeholders matters, and sets out guidance on creating a stakeholder map. By identifying your priority stakeholders and routinely monitoring and reviewing your dealings with them, you can keep your services relevant. When you understand your principal audience, you can shape your output and direct resources so the legal department’s work stays aligned with the business and its objectives.

Tomlin orders in England and Wales: CPR guidance on drafting, confidentiality, approval, variation, enforcement, limitation, CCA issues, court-specific requirements, sample wording and precedents

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues. Accordingly, you must consider the particular rules and court guide provisions in the forum where your claim is proceeding when drawing up the Tomlin order...
