Academic freedom shall be respected.<\/p>\n<p>The Article has no direct equivalent in the European Convention on Human Rights. The ECHR has indicated that those who create perform distribute or exhibit works of art, contribute to the exchange of ideas and opinions which are essential for a democratic society. It has been defined as the creation performance distribution or exhibition of works of art.<\/p>\n<p>It appears the protection extends not just to the work of art but to its production publication and dissemination. In the context of the European Convention on Human Rights, works which are offensive shocking and disturbing may enjoy protection. Those in public life such as politicians must have a broader tolerance for criticism.<\/p>\n<p>As with the European Convention on Human Rights restrictions are permitted, where there is a legitimate interest, and it is they go no more than necessary. Justifiable restraints are likely to be those permissible under the European Convention on human rights in accordance with Article 52 (3).<\/p>\n<p>2. Freedom to manifest one\u2019s religion or beliefs shall be subject only to such limitations as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of public safety, for the protection of public order, health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others.<\/p>\n<p>Academic freedom is a form of freedom of expression. Is not limited to those in academic teaching and potentially extends to everybody engaging in the arts of scientific research.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Article_14_%E2%80%93_Right_to_education\"><\/span>Article 14 &#8211; Right to education<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>1. Everyone has the right to education and to have access to vocational and continuing training.<\/p>\n<p>2. This right includes the possibility to receive free compulsory education.<\/p>\n<p>3. The freedom to found educational establishments with due respect for democratic principles and the right of parents to ensure the education and teaching of their children in conformity with their religious, philosophical and pedagogical convictions shall be respected, in accordance with the national laws governing the exercise of such freedom and right.<\/p>\n<p>Article 14 recognises the right to education and access to vocational and continuing training It recognises the freedom to found educational establishments with due respect for democratic principles. It protects the right of parents to ensure the educational teaching of their children in conformity with their religious philosophical pedagogical convictions in accordance with national law.<\/p>\n<p>The right is based on Article 2 Protocol 1 European Convention on Human Rights but is broader than it. The limitations permissible in respect of the right under Article 2 Protocol 1 are applied by Article 52 (3)<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Scope_of_Right\"><\/span>Scope of Right<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Education denotes the entire process whereby in any society adults endeavour to transmit their beliefs culture and other values to children.\u00a0The right to education embraces primary second-level and higher education. The EU has competence in certain areas of higher and technical education.<\/p>\n<p>The right to have access to education is subject to the relevant rules and regulations establishing the educational system. States must ensure that persons have access to effective education and official recognition of studies completed. It appears that the state may be obliged to take positive steps to support pupils with disadvantages such as ethnic minorities lacking the necessary language skills for the country concerned.<\/p>\n<p>The right to found educational establishments must be exercised in accordance with basic democratic principles of equality tolerance and pluralism.<\/p>\n<p>Parents have the broad right to have their children educated in accordance with their beliefs and convictions. However, states are not obliged to provide or subsidise a particular type or level of education.<\/p>\n<p>They are entitled to teaching and educational content that is objective critical, pluralistic and is not designed to indoctrinate.\u00a0\u00a0The right enjoyed by parents is also by children. There is a right to be educated.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conduct_Business_in_EU\"><\/span>Conduct Business in EU<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Article 15 &#8211; Freedom to choose an occupation and right to engage in work.<\/p>\n<p>1.

It covers employment and self-employment as well as undertaking business. It covers cross-border business.<\/p>\n<p>The right of workers is not a right to undertake a particular job or a right to require the state to provide a job. There is an obligation of states not to interfere with a personal choice of occupation beyond that justifiably required below.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses which are regulated in the public interest are subject to the rules of those businesses and professions. Those rules must apply in a predictable transparent and fair way.<\/p>\n<p>Article 16 provides the freedom to conduct business. This includes self-employment or conducting a business though a company. This reflects the fundamental EU free movement principles. It includes the right to trade and do business in accordance with the economic technical and financial resources available to it as well as the laws of the state. The right accrues to individuals, businesses and companies.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Article_17_%E2%80%93_Right_to_property\"><\/span>Article 17 &#8211; Right to property<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>1.

Intellectual property shall be protected.<\/p>\n<p>Article 17 protects the rights of property. In common with many other charter rights, it has been long since been recognised as a general principle of EU law. It operates in conjunction with articles 15\/16 but is wider than them. It supports economic freedoms to work and do business throughout the European Union. Property extends to all types of property and possessions including intellectual property.<\/p>\n<p>Article 17 is based directly on Article 1 Protocol 1 of the European Convention on Human Rights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c1.\u00a0 Every natural or legal person is entitled to the peaceful enjoyment of his possessions.

Example are laws made in relation to planning permission rent controls inheritance licensing and so on. The measures must balance the general interest and the property right concerned.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Article_18_%E2%80%93_Right_to_asylum\"><\/span>Article 18 &#8211; Right to asylum<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The right to asylum shall be guaranteed with due respect for the rules of the Geneva.<\/p>\n<p>Convention of 28 July 1951 and the Protocol of 31 January 1967 relating to the status of refugees and in accordance with the Treaty on European Union and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (hereinafter referred to as &#8216;the Treaties&#8217;).<\/p>\n<p>Article 18 of the Charter gives effect to the guarantees in the 1951 Refugee Convention and its Protocol. Asylum includes the right to reside in the state the long-term protection of the state which may be granted to a refugee. Refoulement is the sending back of a person to a territory where his life and freedom would be threatened on account of his race religion nationality membership of a particular social group or political opinion. The rights of asylum and refoulement are guaranteed by the Convention and are usually assessed together.<\/p>\n<p>Non-refoulement and can even apply between EU member states.<\/p>\n<p>The EU Qualification Directive provides for subsidiary protection. This will apply to where a person does not qualify as a refugee but would face a real risk of suffering serious harm if returned to his member state.<\/p>\n<p>Protocols 22 and 2122 limit the participation of Ireland in the areas of freedom security and justice. Ireland has opted out of certain elements of the rules on immigration and has remained part of the Common Travel Area with the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Article_19_%E2%80%93_Protection_in_the_event_of_removal_expulsion_or_extradition\"><\/span>Article 19 &#8211; Protection in the event of removal, expulsion or extradition<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>1.
