Answer:

Explanation:

the power to commission officers, as applied in practice, does not mean that the President is under constitutional obligation to commission those whose appointments have reached that stage, but merely that it is he and no one else who has the power to commission them, and that he may do so at his discretion. Under the doctrine of Marbury v. Madison, the sealing and delivery of the commission is a purely ministerial act which has been lodged by statute with the Secretary of State, and which may be compelled by mandamus unless the appointee has been in the meantime validly removed. By an opinion of the Attorney General many years later, however, the President, even after he has signed a commission, still has a locus poenitentiae and may withhold it; nor is the appointee in office till he has this commission. This is probably the correct doctrine.

Compare the text of the United States' first amendment, guaranteeing Freedom of Expression, with the United Kingdom's Human Righ

jasenka [17]

Answer:

The United States first amendment carried more protection and less restriction in its implementation and here is why.

The edict of the United States does not qualify the application of the clause granting freedom of expression. That of the United Kingdom does. In doing so, it ensures that Freedom of Expression is used appropriately in that it must be targeted at the common good and the well being of the state.

It states, for instance, that

"Public authorities may restrict this right if they can show that their action is lawful, necessary and proportionate in order to:

protect national security, territorial integrity (the borders of the state) or public safety

prevent disorder or crime
protect health or morals
protect the rights and reputations of other people
prevent the disclosure of information received in confidence
maintain the authority and impartiality of judges"

Cheers!
