Genome-wide association meta-analysis of age at onset of walking in over 70,000 infants of European ancestry
Age at onset of walking is an important early childhood milestone which is used clinically and in public health screening. In this genome-wide association study meta-analysis of age at onset of walking ( N = 70,560 European-ancestry infants), we identified 11 independent genome-wide significant loci. SNP-based heritability was 24.13% (95% confidence intervals = 21.86–26.40) with ~11,900 variants accounting for about 90% of it, suggesting high pol…
Modern slavery in global value chains
‘Modern slavery’ describes various forms of severe relational labour exploitation. In the realm of global value chains and global factories that are led by multinational enterprises, modern slavery encompasses practices such as forced labour and debt bondage. Multinational enterprises organise and orchestrate global value chains into global factories that are highly adaptive to market pressures and changes in the external environment. We employ t…
Public procurement for protecting human rights
Public procurement presents opportunities for improved human rights protection, specifically requiring that suppliers of government goods and services respect human rights. We discuss two recent developments: the introduction of the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth) (MSA) which applies to businesses and Commonwealth entities and particularly, recent moves by the Western Australian government to introduce a procurement debarment regime as part of the …
Corporate Responses to Tackling Modern Slavery
The business and human rights agenda is gaining momentum internationally, perhaps best evidenced through recent legislative responses to tackling modern slavery. Using a reflexive law lens, we analyse three recent laws – the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, the French ‘duty of vigilance’ law of 2017, and the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth). The three laws, or their accompanying guidance, share characteristics in terms of reporting requirement…
Introduction
The Collective Complaints System of the European Social Charter
The system of collective complaints established by a Protocol to the European Social Charter has now been in force for a decade. The Protocol gives the European Committee on Social Rights (ECSR) the competence to examine complaints by social partner organisations and non-governmental organisations (NGOs). The procedural aspects of the system have been criticised, particularly the lack of remedial powers and the significant role played by the Comm…

Siliadin v France
The unanimous decision of the Second Section of the European Court of Human Rights (‘Court’) in Siliadin v France , 1 strikes at the heart of a number of topical and conceptual issues in international human rights law. Although this is not the first time a European-level tribunal has addressed questions of child labour, 2 this case arises from an alleged incident of trafficking of a child for the purpose of forced labour, an area of heightened at…

From Migrants to Citizens? European Community Policy on Intercultural Education
Policy-making in the European Community in the area of education for migrants is driven by two conflicting pressures. On one side, the principle of effectiveness requires that the rights of free movement within the Community be supported by the best possible education for the children of migrants. However, on the other side is the importance of primary education to the member States as a political and cultural matter. This pressure is reinforced …
The subsidiary woman
This article examines the divergence between the approach of the European Court of Justice to sex discrimination in employment and its recent decisions on similar discrimination in social welfare provision. An explanation may be found through the application of the distinction between the market or public sphere, which is the province of European integration, and the domestic or private sphere, which is still considered to be primarily a matter o…
Education Rights or Minority Rights
The special educational needs of minority children create particular problems of human rights. The only way of resolving what often seem to be contradictory claims is by deciding whether minority education rights are a species of the right to education or of minority rights. The many codifications of the right to education in international law do not answer this problem. The author argues that the former path allows for a fuller solution of these…
