Recently-arrived migrants and social welfare.

"This article explores the impact of the Coalition Government's proposals to limit recently-arrived migrants' access to social welfare benefits [in Australia]. It concludes that while the short-term consequences for these migrants will be severe, the proposals do not address the more significant long-term welfare costs of family migration."

[Social welfare in the care of chronically ill psychiatric patients].

The article shows the development of the long-stay departments at the psychiatric hospitals in Eastern Germany from the perspective of a local government. Against the apparently increasing scepticism of concepts of de-institutionalisation, the example of the city Leipzig is used to show how the process of reintegrating residents of long-stay institutions can be supported, and how decentralized out-patient psychosocial services--which can also be used by the community inhabitants--can be built up at the same time. Reference is also made to the well-developed out-patient services and clearly structured treatment offers for the inpatient sector which have already existed in the city before the political changes in Eastern Germany. Further, the role of the local Social Welfare Office in the realization of de-institutionalisation projects will be outlined.

Hyland v. Minister for Social Welfare, 18 January 1988.

The Court held unconstitutional provisions of the Irish Social Welfare (No. 2) Act 1985, which, in effect, gave lower total unemployment benefits to a married couple than to two single people living together in the same circumstances. It ruled that these provisions violated Article 41.2 of the Constitution, which pledges the State to guard with special care the institution of marriage and to protect it against attack.
