In every well-organized Foreign Office there is an important officer called the Chief of Protocol who decides matters relating to the rules of diplomatic and state etiquette and ceremony. He briefs newly-arrived ambassadors-designate on procedures regarding the presentation of credentials and related matters. He is consulted by members of the diplomatic corps on questions regarding precedence, correct procedure, formalities at official ceremonies, courtesies, seating arrangements at dinner, dress and the like. He is the arbiter of ceremonial usage and local custom. His decisions on unofficial matters are not binding but they are generally followed. 1, record 1, English, - Chief%20of%20Protocol

Traditionally, administrative tribunals have been allowed to intervene in Higher Court proceedings where jurisdictional or operational matters have been in issue. However, one aspect of the IRB's [Immigration and Refugee Board] increased focus on strategic adjudication of its cases may include a need for the IRB to seek leave to intervene in more of its cases before the higher courts. The IRB's [Immigration and Refugee Board] ability to establish a consistent and coherent body of jurisprudence depends, in part, on the establishment of a coordinated and rational approach to its adjudicative function. To be most effective, each division must establish a selective and strategic approach to the adjudication of issues. This adjudication strategy is aimed at identifying the relatively small number of cases that merit the division's particular attention because they are cases that have the potential to shape the Board's jurisprudence. 2, record 4, English, - adjudication%20strategy

Habituellement, les tribunaux administratifs ont le droit d'intervenir dans les affaires portées devant une cour supérieure dans les cas qui soulèvent des questions de compétence ou de fonctionnement. Toutefois, l'attention accrue accordée par la CISR [Commission de l'immigration et du statut de réfugié] à la stratégie décisionnelle visant ses cas peut s'expliquer par la nécessité de demander l'autorisation d'intervenir dans un plus grand nombre de ses cas portés en appel devant les cours supérieures. La capacité de la CISR d'élaborer un corpus cohérent et uniforme de décisions faisant jurisprudence repose, en partie, sur la mise au point d'une approche coordonnée et rationnelle de sa fonction décisionnelle. Pour assurer une efficacité optimale, chaque section doit définir une approche sélective et stratégique du règlement des cas. Cette stratégie décisionnelle vise à préciser le nombre relativement faible de cas qui méritent l'attention de la section puisqu'ils peuvent façonner la jurisprudence de la Commission. 2, record 4, French, - strat%C3%A9gie%20d%C3%A9cisionnelle

In Canada,(outside Quebec) a lawyer is both barrister and solicitor, whereas in England, there is a distinction : The barrister does the actual court work, presenting and arguing the case in court, but does not prepare the case from the start; the solicitor's function is to assemble the legal materials, do the research and compile the legal precedents. A solicitor also is employed to perform a wide variety of legal work, such as the preparation of documents like wills and mortgages, conveyancing, company work and advising on tax matters. 2, record 6, English, - solicitor
