MODES OF CREATION OF AGENCY
According to Salmond the theory of sovereignty may be reduced to the following three fundamental propositions. He regards the first of these proposi¬tions as correct and the second and third without any solid foundation.
Sovereignty means the supreme, absolute, and uncontrollable power by which any independent state is governed; supreme political authority; the supreme will; paramount control of the constitution and frame of government and its administration; the self-sufficient source of political power, from which all specific political powers are derived; the international independence of a state, combined with the right and power of regulating its internal affairs without foreign dictation; also a political society, or state, which is sovereign and independent.
The power to do everything in a state without accountability, to other countries, to execute and to apply them, to impose and collect taxes and levy contributions, to make war or peace, to form treaties of alliance or of commerce with foreign nations.
The concept of ‘sovereignty’ is one of the most complex, with many definitions, some are totally contradictory. Usually, sovereignty is defined in one of two ways. The first definition applies to supreme public power, which has the right and, in theory, the capacity to impose its authority in the last instance. The second definition refers to the holder of legitimate power, who is recognized to have authority.
When national sovereignty is discussed, the first definition applies, and it refers in particular to independence, understood as the freedom of a collective entity to act. When popular sovereignty is discussed, the second definition applies, and sovereignty is associated with power and legitimacy.1
There are various definition of sovereignty which has been defined by academicians and philosophers they are as follows:
In political science, sovereignty is usually defined as the most essential attribute of the state in the form of its complete self-sufficiency in the frames of a certain territory that is its supremacy in the domestic policy and independence in the foreign one.
John Bodin defines sovereignty “The supreme power over citizens and subjects, unrestrained by law.”
Grotius defines sovereignty as “The supreme political power vested in him whose acts are not subject to any other and whose will cannot be overridden”.
Also definition of Sovereignty by Soltau is “Final legal coercive power by the state”.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

Law of Bailment
1. BAILMENT
THE LAW OF AGENCY,
BAILMENT AND PARTNERSHIP
Course Conductor: Sadia Sharmin
Email: sadia.sharmin3@gmail.com
2. BAILMENT
‘Bailment’ is derived from a French word ‘bailer’
which means ‘to deliver’.
But in law it refers to the contract which results
from delivery of goods.
In contract of bailment only possession is
passed on not the ownership.
There cannot be bailment of immovable
property.
3. SECTION 148 OF CONTRACT ACT
“A bailment is the delivery of goods by one
person to another for some purpose, upon a
contract that they shall, when the purpose is
accomplished, be returned or otherwise
disposed of according to the directions of the
person delivering them. The person to whom
they are delivered is called the bailee”
4. Examples:
X delivers a piece of cloth to Y, a tailor, to be
stitched into a suit. It is contract of bailment.
X delivers a watch to Y, a watch repairer for
repair.
Gold given to goldsmith to make ornament.
Something left with a friend inadvertently.
When a person find lost goods – implied
contract of bailment.
5. ESSENTIALS OF BAILMENT
Contract
Delivery of goods - Delivery of possession of
goods from one person to another. Mere
custody of goods does not amount to change in
possession. Goods must be handed over to the
bailee for some purpose.
The delivery of possession of goods is of the
following kinds:
1. Actual delivery - when goods are physically
handed over to the bailee by the bailor.
6. 2. Constructive delivery or Symbolic Delivery –
Handling over the keys of a warehouse,
Document of title of goods.
( immovable property)
3. Delivery of goods must be for some purpose-
The delivery of goods must be for some
purpose. Eg goldsmith
4. Delivery upon a contract – There is no
bailment where the delivery of goods is
without contract. ( A minor )
5. Return of goods.
7. KINDS OF BAILMENT
On the basis of benefit –
1. Exclusive for the benefit of bailor.
2. Exclusive for the benefit of bailee.
On the basis of Reward –
1. Gratuitous Bailment – Goods are delivered
by the bailor to the bailee without any
reward. Lending a book to a friend for
reading. ( Exclusive benefit of either of the
party)
8. 2. Non – Gratuitous bailment – Where bailor
& bailee is entitled to reward for bailment.
Example:
A car let out for hire,
Gold given to goldsmith for making jewellery for
charges.
9. DUTIES OF BAILEE
1. To take reasonable care:
As a prudent man would take of his own goods. If
any loss or damage incurs to the goods bailed in
spite of the due care, he will not be liable for
any such loss or damage. The burden of proof is
on the bailee to show that he was not negligent.
The bailee is not answerable for any loss to
goods bailed, caused by an act of God, Lightning,
flood.
10. Examples:
X bailed the goods to Y. In spite of Y’s taking
reasonable care, goods were stolen & Y did
not inform the owner or police. Y was held
liable.
X, had hired a wooden shop & it was burst by
mobs during a communal riot. Held X was not
liable.
2. Not to make any unauthorized use of goods:
A lends a horse to B for his own riding only. B
allows C, member of the family, to ride the
horse. The horse accidentally falls & is injured. B
is liable to make compensation
11. 3. Not to mix the goods with his own goods:
(a) Mixing with bailor’s consent.
(b) Mixing without bailor’s consent
Where goods can be separated – Bailee is
liable to bear all the expenses of separation.
Example: A bails 100 bales of cotton marked with
a particular mark to B. B, without A’s consent
mixes the 100 bales with other bales of his own
bearing a different mark. A is entitled to have
his 100 bales returned & B is bound to bear
all the expenses for separation of bales.
12. Where the goods mixed cannot be separated –
The bailor is entitled to be compensated by

the bailor. ( Even he comes to know about the
true owner of the goods )
5. To return increase or profit:
It happens in case of animals. A leaves a cow in
the custody of B to be taken care of. The cow
has a calf. B is bound to deliver the calf as well
as cow to A.
13. 6. To return the goods:
If he fails to do so, he becomes liable for any
loss. Responsible also for act of god.
Case Ref:
Shaw & co. vs. Symmons & sons – X delivered
books to Y to be bound. Y promised to return the
books within a reasonable time. X pressed for
the return of the book. But Y, failed to deliver
them back even after the expiry of reasonable
time. Subsequently the books were burnt in an
accidental fire at the premises of Y. Y was held
liable for the loss.
14. Where there are several joint owners of goods
bailed – the bailee may return the goods to
any of the bailor.
Where there is a gratuitous bailment, the bailee
is bound to return the goods to the bailor on
demand even before the expiry of the fixed

is liable to pay if there is any loss incurred due to
termination of bailment. (books for reading)

2.To repay necessary expenses in case of
gratuitous bailment:
Where the bailee is required to keep goods for
the benefit of the bailor without any

necessary expenses. E.g. X leaves a horse in
the custody of Y to be taken care of & y is to
receive no remuneration. All the expenses
incidental thereto i.e. feeding horse, medical
expenses should be paid to Y.
16. 3. To repay the extra ordinary expenses:
in case of non–gratuitous bailment:
Y hires X’s horse for his carriage. The horse
becomes ill & Y spends Rs. 50 on medical
expenses over & above Rs. 20 on feeding the
horse. X is liable to pay to Y Rs. 50 the extra-
ordinary expenses only.
