Complete the notes on the Citizens Advice Bureau using NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS for each gap.
• 11.______a solicitor
• suggest where you can find free legal advice
• inform you whether you can get 12.______to cover legal costs
Presenter: Good afternoon, everybody. My name is Sally Miller and
I’m here to offer you some advice on legal matters whilst you are studying
at this university. Happily, most international students complete their courses
without running into any serious legal problems, but if you do find yourself
involved in a legal dispute of any kind, ask for help. There are two options.
First, contact the students’ union or welfare officer. Even if they cannot help
you directly, they should be able to advise you where to go for help. The second
possibility is to contact the Citizens Advice Bureau in your area. You can
find them in the local telephone directory.
They will be able to recommend a Q11
solicitor if you need one,
and tell you if there is a local law centre providing
free legal advice.
They will also be able to tell you whether you can claim Q12
legal aid to help pay for any court and legal fees.
Let me give you some basic information about the police. The police
have the power to stop and search anyone who appears to be behaving in a
suspicious manner. If you are arrested for any reason, even if you know it
to be a wrong reason, remember a few very important things. One, don’t be
aggressive. Two, do not try to bribe the police officer. Three,
if you are arrested Q13
by plain-clothes police officers, ask to see some form of identification.
Four, give your true name and address if the officer asks you to. Lying to the
police is a criminal offence.
Five, do not sign any statement until you have Q14
received advice from a solicitor.
There is always a solicitor on duty at every
police station. Six, you will be entitled to make one telephone call. If you use
this call to telephone a friend, urge your friend to contact someone from your
university or from the students’ union and get advice about what you should
do next.
If you find yourself in trouble with the police, it is very important to get professional advice. Contact any of the following: your university welfare officer, the students’ union at your university, your local Citizens Advice Bureau, a local law centre. If you are found guilty of an offence, it could seriously damage your position as an international student, so be sure to ask for help as early in the process as possible.
Remember: obey the local laws! The laws here may not be quite the
same as in your own country. Here are a few examples of actions that are illegal here.
It is against the law to: possess offensive weapons,
e.g. knives, Q15
guns, chemical sprays used for personal defence—even women are not allowed
to carry sprays or other deterrents to protect themselves against possible
assault—except for rape alarms,
possess or supply hard or soft drugs,
Q16
disturb the peace—this is called "disorderly conduct". This means that you
can be arrested for being too noisy or rowdy.
A few words about drinking. In this country, it is perfectly acceptable
for adults to drink alcohol in moderate amounts. For many people, drinking
is an established part of their social life—"going out for a drink" is how they
relax or spend time with friends. If you go to a party or visit people at home
in the evening, your host will probably offer you a drink. Often a lot of university
social life can revolve around drinking, especially for undergraduates.
Do not be surprised if people arrange to meet in a bar
or if events are held in Q17
a pub. But
you are not obliged to drink alcohol if you do not want to even Q18
if you are in a pub or at a party where everyone else is drinking. You can always
ask for a non-alcoholic drink instead.
And if you feel uncomfortable
going to places that serve alcohol, explain this to your friends—there are lots
of other places where you can meet. If you do choose to drink, remember
that you should never drive a motor vehicle after drinking alcohol—it is dangerous
and the police can impose serious penalties on you. Also remember
that being drunk in public is not acceptable either, and the police can arrest
you for it.
Drugs and alcohol can cause serious problems. Let me repeat that in
this country,
it is illegal to use drugs, except under medical supervision.
But, Q19
if you do use illegal drugs and you develop a problem, there are organisations
you can contact. Contact your students’ union or your student counsellor.
Anyone over 18 years old can legally buy and consume alcoholic drinks
Q20
in this country, but if you think you might be drinking too much, get help and
advice from your student counsellor or your doctor. Again, there are special
organisations that can help you with drug and alcohol problems. Contact
them.
