This document summarizes key aspects of Article 8 of the Rome I convention regarding individual employment contracts. Article 8 outlines rules for determining the governing law of an employment contract if the parties did not choose one. It states that without a choice, the contract is governed by the law of the country where the employee habitually carries out work. If that cannot be determined, the law of the place of business that engaged the employee applies. The article also allows for considering the overall circumstances to apply the law of the country most closely connected to the contract.
Sanction for prosecution of offences under chapter xii of the income tax actVijay Dalmia
Under Chapter XII of the (Indian) Income Tax Act-1961, a person cannot be prosecuted for an offence Under Sections 275A, 275B, 276, 276A, 276B, 276BB, 276C, 276CC, 276D, 277, 277A or 278, except with the previous sanction of the Principal Commissioner or Commissioner or Commissioner(Appeals) or the appropriate Authority. Accordingly, in all cases of prosecution the fact of proper sanction by a competent authority is sine qua non, for initiating prosecution against an offender by the Income Tax Authorities. The issue of valid previous sanction becomes important, and may be taken as a defense by the accused during the course of trial. Following are the important points, which are to be considered, while granting sanction in any matter:

A 360 Degree Review of Penal Provisions’ Application under Competition Law ...KK SHARMA LAW OFFICES
Perhaps not many laws have been subject to so much public scrutiny as competition law either before its enactment or afterwards. Almost immediately after its enactment, just after a duly appointed Member had assumed office and before a duly appointed Chairman could enter office, the Competition Act, 2002(Act) was challenged on various counts. This resulted in a very strange situation. The Competition Commission of India (CCI) could not be called a Commission in terms of the Act which needed a minimum quorum of a Chairman and, at least, two Members for being a legally recognized Commission. So, the CCI remained a one Member body (not a full Commission) till as late as March 1, 2009 when, for the first time, a Chairman and two Members were in office and the CCI, in the eyes of law, was a full Commission. The enforcement powers to CCI came in stages. In first phase only advocacy functions were allowed. This was followed by antitrust enforcement powers being given to the Commission from May 20, 2009. Thereafter, regulations of combinations (popularly known as Merger Review) came into force with effect from June 1, 2011. There were always fears that the CCI may turn out to be as effective (or ineffective depending upon one’s perspective) as MRTPC. Now, that five years have passed since the time the CCI began to get its enforcement powers, it is high time to look back if the fears about the efficacy of the powers given to the CCI were justified or misplaced. The author, the only official in senior echelons of the CCI who not only saw the transition from a CCI doing only competition advocacy to a fully functional Commission but also played a very crucial role in this transition by way of being the very first Director General of the functional CCI, laying down the investigative framework of investigation, and later as the first head of Merger Control who gave the country its very efficient Merger Review Format, takes a look at this issue.
The first of clause (1) provides that “no person shall be convicted of any offence except for violation of ‘law in force’ at the time of the commission of the act charged as an offence”. This means that if an act is not an offence at the date of its commission it cannot be an offence at the date subsequent to its commission.
The act of putting a person through a second trial of an offence for which he or she has already been prosecuted or convicted
The expression ‘self-incrimination’ means “conveying information based upon personal knowledge of the person giving information involving himself to be the prime part taken in the offence.” A person shall not be asked to make statements against himself (i.e. self-harming statements/confessional statements).

Elements of a Contract
A contract of employment refers to the agreement between the employer and employee that forms the basis for an employment relationship. In most cases, a contract takes effect as soon as an employee employment offer is accepted. By starting to work ideally demonstrates that the employee has accepted the employer’s terms and conditions bade. However, an existing employment contract can only be varied with the understanding of both parties. To grasp entropy behind varying or changing a contract.
Contract cancellation occurs when either party involved ends a contract supposedly for a violation by the other. The party that cancels that contract retains any remediation for the violation of the contract. When one party breaches the terms and conditions of the signed contract, the other concerned party bears the right to cancel. As such, the integral contract may be rolled down, refunding of previously payments and ending any remaining obligations. Contract termination falls out when either party involved ends a contract in other respects prior to a breach as perceived by the scenario.
With this integral occurrence, any components of a contract that had initially to be accomplished will be left behind, but any future obligations that are not yet carried out will cease. However, like the binding of the contract, the requisite elements of contract terms that must be established in order to demonstrate the legal formality for the process involves; offer, acceptance, consideration, mutuality of obligation and competency (Tepper, 2014).
About to offer, it is crucial to check out the terms and conditions of the agreement of a termination or rescission clause. Recession basically relates to the act of rescinding; the cancellation of a contract and the return of the parties to the positions they would have had if the contract had not been made (Morawetz, 1925). Some contractual agreements might automatically terminate the contract after a fixed event or term while some can be canceled officially without the permission of another party. If the contractual agreement is arranged to terminate within the near future, then one might only allow the contract to lapse. All the same, if the contract agreement has a friendly rescission clause, then contract termination may not be of the essence.
Following the apprehension of the terms and condition, one is thereby expected to verify whether the agreement is accorded a notice provision. Much of contractual agreements require that all established correspondence among the parties involved be executed through communication in writing. Set off the address of o.
Contracts and agreements have dominates so many aspects of the economy in our daily lives. Practically every personal business activity involves a contract, such as enrollment in college, renting a house or an apartment, buying and selling a land or a vehicle, and many more. A contracts define the relationship, the rights, and the obligations of the parties. And one of the essential elements of a contract is an agreement. An agreement is formed when an offer is accepted. If the agreement has been poured in written form, then the Agreement is called Contract. The content of the Contract are in fact the Agreement itself. The terms of the contract and the agreement are identical, without needing to be differentiated and can be used simultaneously. The term of contract is more often used in business practice.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

What is the individual employment contract?
What is the individual employment contract in
Rome I convention?
Consequences of Article 8 of Rome I convention
3. A. WHAT IS THE INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYMENT
CONTRACT?
Basically employment contract is this :
‘The contracts are established between employee
who is carrying out the job and employer who is
paying the salary for labor.’
The contract exists as a result of bargaining and
consensus of employee and employer.
4. Some contracts definitions in different countries:

‘Employment contract is an agreement whereby one party (the
employee) undertakes to perform work in subordination to the
other party (the employer) who undertakes to pay him
remuneration’

rights and obligations related to the performance of work in the framework
of the employment relationship and the registration to social insurance
schemes shall begin to be exercised on the day of commencement of work
agreed in the employment contract…’
in Swiss labour act:
‘An employment contract exists once two people reach an
agreement according to which one person will carry out work in
return for a salary from the other.’

the employee’s personality. Keeping secret the worker’s personal information and being
respectful to worker’s dignity are included in this obligation as well.
8. B. WHAT IS THE INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYMENT
CONTRACT IN ROME I CONVENTION?
Article 8 of Rome I
Individual employment contracts
1. An individual employment contract shall be governed by the law chosen by the parties
in accordance with Article 3. Such a choice of law may not, however, have the result of
depriving the employee of the protection afforded to him by provisions that cannot be
derogated from by agreement under the law that, in the absence of choice, would have
been applicable pursuant to paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Article.
2. To the extent that the law applicable to the individual employment contract has not
been chosen by the parties, the contract shall be governed by the law of the country in
which or, failing that, from which the employee habitually carries out his work in
performance of the contract. The country where the work is habitually carried out shall
not be deemed to have changed if he is temporarily employed in another country.
3. Where the law applicable cannot be determined pursuant to paragraph 2, the contract
shall be governed by the law of the country where the place of business through which
the employee was engaged is situated.
4. Where it appears from the circumstances as a whole that the contract is more closely
connected with a country other than that indicated in paragraphs 2 or 3, the law of that
other country shall apply.
9. The Rome I convention is all about the ‘Applicable law to contractual obligations in EU’ and the article
8 is about the applicable law on employment contracts.
The article 8 defines how can we make an employment contract (first intent of the article 8) and
how can we choose the applicable law for any conflict on the individual employment contract
(second, third and fourth intents of the article 8).
First paragraph of the article 8:
‘An individual employment contract shall be governed by the law chosen by the parties in accordance
with Article 3. Such a choice of law may not, however, have the result of depriving the employee of the
protection afforded to him by provisions that cannot be derogated from by agreement under the law
that, in the absence of choice, would have been applicable pursuant to paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this
Article.’
First sentence of this provision is implicitly saying about how to make a contract.
The provision refers to article 3 of the same convention. Article 3 is about the freedom of choice.
According to this article; a contract shall be governed by the law chosen by the parties. It means the
parties of the contract can decide to apply any law system on their relationship or their contract.
And also, They can change the law any time during the contract with which law they want to apply
to their relation. Even though the new law has different consequences than previous law; they can
choose the new one. But the choice shall not affect adversely rights of third parties.
And the rest of the first paragraph protects the worker’s right , even if they don’t choose an
applicable law.
10. Second, third and fourth paragraph of the article 8 is about what if the applicable law wasn’t
chosen by parties as in this article.
Second paragraph of the art. 8:
To the extent that the law -applicable to the individual employment contract- has not been chosen by the
parties, the contract shall be governed by the law of the country in which or, failing that, from which the
employee habitually carries out his work in performance of the contract. The country where the work is
habitually carried out shall not be deemed to have changed if he is temporarily employed in another
country.
Second paragraph is related which law will govern the contract absence of any chosen law. If the
parties have not chosen an applicable law, there are two ways to find the governing law the contract;
a) The law of country which the contract was established on its territorial. So, even if the parties don’t
choose any law to apply to their relation, where the consensus was ensured, its law will be applied.
b) If to determine (a) option is not possible, in this case the habitual working place of the employee is the
solution source. Habitual working place means where is hosting for most part of the job. Such as, the
employee is working in an audit company. He is in the office which is placed in Maribor during 5 days of the
week. But the other 2 days, he is going abroad to audit the banks. So, the habitual working place is clearly
Maribor. It can be more complicated to define habitual working place, in this case we will decide to the law
of where is the connection is stronger with employee.
11. Third paragraph of the article 8;
‘Where the law applicable cannot be determined pursuant to paragraph 2, the contract shall
be governed by the law of the country where the place of business through which the
employee was engaged is situated.’
It means, in the situations which could not be determined an applicable law according to
second paragraph failing a chosen applicable law by the parties - for instance the
country’s law can prohibit applying its law- the contract shall be governed by country
which is including the working place at the carrying out time.
12. Fourth paragraph of the article 8:
‘‘ Where it appears from the circumstances as a whole that the contract is more closely connected with
a country other than that indicated in paragraphs 2 or 3, the law of that other country shall apply.’’
According to this provision, if the situation shows that the contract is much closer to a country than
indicated countries in second and third paragraphs, the country’s law which is in more intimate
relation with contract govern the contract.
The point of this paragraph is ‘ to prevent wrong implementation.’ How it will provide this ? If we
apply the law which is belong to another country which is not related to job as musch as country
mentioned fourth paragraph - such as just contract was made in that country-, it can not provide
justice because of the conditions of working place are totally different than the another country
which is related to job a little. Therefore, it is the more fair to apply closer county’s law.
13. C. CONSEQUENCES OF ARTICLE 8 OF ROME I
CONVENTION
There are some cardinal consequences of this article;
This article provides the freedom of choice. It doesn’t order any law to be chosen
or it doesn’t pressure to parties. But it has implied to choose an applicable law.
Even they don’t, it regulates some other solutions and it defines an applicable
law.
It provides the equality by determining applicable law. It provides equality how
advising to choose a law. If they choose a law, employee’s and employer’s rights
will be under law’s control and all parties will know their all rights and obligations.
A party cannot ask anything which is not placed in the contract/law.
It directs the weak parties (employee) to ask their right. It provides a law
protection and the employees think ‘okay, law back me up I can stand against to
injustices or exploiting by employer.’ And it provides justice.
