New IBA Award for Best

Article

First Award to be made at New Delhi

Conference

The IBA Council have decided to award a Prize in order

to stimulate the writing and publishing of articles which,

on an international level, treat topics of special interest to

the legal profession and the practising lawyer.

The first award will be made at the IBA's Nineteenth

Conference to be held in New Delhi from 18-23 October,

1982 and will consist of £750 and an engraved medal.

Second and third prizes may also be awarded consisting

of £200 and £100 respectively together with a diploma.

The Topic chosen for the 1982 Award is:

The role of legal mechanisms in regulating acts

performed outside the domestic jurisdiction with

particular reference to the activities of multi-national

companies in less developed countries.

Treatment of the Topic may cover one or more

aspects. Examples of matters that could be considered

are, trade in harmful substances, Arab boycott clauses in

commercial contracts, violations of exchange control

laws, possibly Swiss confidentiality laws, taxation of

companies operating outside the domestic jurisdiction,

and difficulties in securing international treaties. This list

is in no way exclusive.

Articles on the topic must not exceed 10,000 words

and must be submitted in English. The prize-winning

article or articles will be published in the Association's

Journals.

The contest is open to any lawyer under the age of 40.

He or she does not have to be an IBA member.

Entries must be sent to the IBA headquarters by June

1, 1982. Judging will be by a Committee of three with a

Chairman appointed by the British Institute of

International and Comparative Law. The Committee

shall, in its complete discretion, be free to recommend

that no awards be given if none of the articles submitted

are of sufficient quality. •

In paragraph 2, line 1 of the above note reference was

made to the "Law Society". This in fact should have

read "The Society of Young Solicitors".
