These two sections are modeled on section 33 of the Supreme Court Act 1981 of the UK and specifically enacted in 1987 for the special needs of personal injuries claims as a result of the recommendations of a sub-committee of the Supreme Court Rules Committee chaired by Kempster J. Members have asked about the scope and definition of the term "professional adviser" after the Court's jurisdiction is broadened to cover pre-action disclosure in all types of civil cases, and whether the drafting of Part 6 of the Bill should be reviewed to see if it is more appropriate to make separate and general provisions relating to pre-action discovery in cases other than personal injuries claims.

Mercury compounds can be used in paints, (e.g., surface paints on zippers and buttons).

However, despite the substantial time and cost of negotiations, draft treaty texts for a legally-binding agreement on mercury do not show the desired willingness on the part of States to address other heavy metals associated with extractive industries that warrant international action, such as lead and cadmium.

The larger wildlife species (such as eagles, seals) prey on fish that are also predators, such as trout and salmon, whereas smaller fish-eating wildlife (such as kingfishers) tend to feed on the smaller forage fish, which have been found in a study to have higher tissue levels of mercury (US EPA, 1997).

Target 2012-2013: 30 14.85 The subprogramme is expected to achieve its objectives and expected accomplishments on the assumption that: (a) extrabudgetary funds from a relatively narrow donor base will continue to be available; and (b) there will be an expansion of the Global Environment Facility focal area related to chemicals to include support with regard not only to persistent organic pollutants and ozonedepleting substances, but also to mercury and the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management, which provides an opportunity to leverage a greater range of work complementary to the subprogramme.

Put in place an environmental management strategy that includes responsible monitoring and enforcement of mercury regulations, tracking of all mercury movements (from raw material to process to product to waste), and periodic independent control.

UNEP, as the secretariat of the intergovernmental negotiating committee for the preparation of a global legally binding instrument on mercury, recently ran that committee’s first session as a paperless meeting.

She had also received a letter from the Head of the Chemicals Branch in UNEP’s Division of Technology, Industry and Economics (UNEP/DTIE) requesting comments on the Fund’s experience in technology transfer or technical support to developing countries in preparation for the next meeting of the Ad hoc Open-ended Working Group on mercury, and the Secretariat would welcome the Committee’s guidance on a response.

He reaffirmed the Rio Group’s support for the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee to Prepare a Global Legally Binding Instrument on Mercury, its endorsement of both the Nagoya Protocol on Access and Benefit-Sharing and the Strategic Plan for the Convention for the period 2011-2020, and its particular interest in the Committee’s negotiations on draft resolutions relating to natural disaster.

In other regions, mercury from abandoned gold rush era mines and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and other contaminants have been dumped into all water sources, polluting the water supply and making seafood, a staple of the traditional diet, unsafe for human consumption.
