VOLUME XXVII/1
EU Law Beyond EU Borders
The Extraterritorial Reach of EU Law
The Collected Courses of the Academy of European Law
Edited by Professor Nehal Bhuta, Professor Claire Kilpatrick,
and Professor Joanne Scott
Assistant Editors: Anny Bremner and Joyce Davies
Each year the Academy of European Law in Florence, Italy, invites a group of
outstanding lecturers to teach at its summer courses on Human Rights Law
and the Law of the European Union. A ‘general course’ is given in each of the
two fields by a distinguished scholar or practitioner, who examines the field as
a whole through a particular thematic, conceptual, or philosophical lens, or
looks at a theme in the context of the overall body of law. In addition, a series
of ‘specialized courses’ brings together a group of highly qualified scholars to
explore and analyse a specific theme in relation to human rights law and EU
law. The Academy’s mission, to produce scholarly analyses which are at the
cutting edge of the two fields, is achieved through publication of this series,
the Collected Courses of the Academy of European Law.

Introduction
EU Law Beyond EU Borders

Marise Cremona and Joanne Scott

1. The Aim of this Book


The former Advocate General Francis Jacobs recently expressed a view, certainly
shared by many, that ‘the EU is based exclusively on law, not on power . . . [and] that
over the past sixty years or so law has made a unique contribution to the European
story’.1 While it may be true that the EU is based on law not on power, this book
explores the possibility that in its international relations we can also see law as power.
As an international legal actor, law is at the foundation of the EU’s external power;
it may have profound effects on the laws and governance arrangements of other
countries, upon global governance arrangements and international and transnational
norms. This book will address the impact of EU law beyond its own borders, which
may be termed the ‘global reach’ of EU law;2 it examines the ways that law is used as
a powerful instrument of EU external action, the impact this has on the nature of the
EU’s external relationships and some of the normative challenges this poses.
What do we mean by the global reach of EU law? It includes the extraterritorial
application of EU law, the presence of territorial extension,3 and the so-called
‘Brussels Effect’,4 all phenomena concerned with the effects of unilateral legislative
instruments and regulatory action beyond the EU’s borders.5 But ‘global reach’ also
refers to the impact of the EU’s bilateral relationships in the form of agreements with
third countries or third country agencies, and of the EU’s engagement with multi-
lateral fora and the negotiation of international legal instruments.6 Although this
book is concerned with the impact of (EU) law, the instruments used by the EU to

facilitate its global reach include, alongside ‘hard’ law such as legislation and inter-
national agreements, non-binding—though sometimes highly institutionalized—
instruments, such as dialogues, agendas for action and guidelines.
Three points flow from this conception of ‘global reach’. First is the need to ap-
preciate the relationship between these different modes of EU action—unilateral,
bilateral and multilateral—and the ways in which they interact. As we will see in the
following chapters, the movement is not all one way and cannot simply be character-
ized as the export or import of norms. Second, this interplay indicates that the global
reach of EU law is not limited to the export of the EU’s own internal acquis; it may
involve the use of EU instruments (both unilateral and bilateral) to support the
adoption and application of international law. And, third, the instruments of the
global reach of EU law are often presented (not least by the EU itself ) as mechanisms
for the promotion of its values, as part of the EU’s external mandate under Articles
3(5) and 21 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU).
This external mandate also explicitly requires the EU to promote and safeguard its
interests; claims that the EU’s interests and values coincide—that, in fact, it is in the EU’s
interest to see its values more widely accepted7—reveal the tensions implicit in this rela-
tion between values and interests. This tension permeates discussion of the global reach
of EU law. Instances can be identified where the EU’s value-promotion represents an
attempt to extend to third countries international law norms by which it is itself con-
strained. But the EU also faces the charge that it seeks to export to third countries values
and standards which it is less rigorous about applying to itself, and that the external ap-
plication of EU law may in some instances put into question the EU’s own responsibility
to comply with international law. In any event, the EU’s desire to promote its own values
as global is clearly linked to EU interests in promoting the EU law norms based on those
values; however, as Christopher Kuner points out in Chapter 3, ‘it would be unreasonable
to expect third countries to accept the EU’s political interests as universal values’.

2. The Structure and Scope of this Book

The book starts with two introductory chapters by Joanne Scott and Marise Cremona
that descriptively map this phenomenon and offer some analytical tools for under-
standing it. These are followed by four chapters, all looking at very different legal
fields, which seek to assess to what extent we can indeed identify an extraterritorial
impact of EU law; explore the interaction between EU law, the domestic laws of
third countries and international or transnational governance regimes; and identify
some of the normative issues raised by these interactions. The legal fields chosen—
the environment, the Internet and data protection, banking and financial markets,
competition policy and migration—each possess natural cross-border characteris-
tics, as well as being fields in which the EU has been notably active, both internally

and externally. The EU may seek to influence conduct and governance regimes be-
yond its borders for a multiplicity of reasons, whether through the extraterritorial
impact of its own legislation, participation in international governance structures,
or entering into bi- or multilateral agreements. It may be concerned with ensuring
the integrity and efficacy of its own internal regulatory regime and preventing eva-
sion; it may wish to influence the development of regulation in line with its own
values and interests, and then seek to promote a specific regulatory approach more
widely; or it may claim wider jurisdictional responsibility or seek to divert responsi-
bility to other actors. The five diverse policy fields examined here by Joanne Scott,
Marise Cremona, Christopher Kuner, Paul Davies, Giorgio Monti and Bernard
Ryan each offer a different balance between these motivations and techniques, and
the conclusions reached by these authors indicate that the EU’s willingness and
ability to exercise global influence is by no means uniform.
The complexity of the concept of the global reach of EU law and the diversity of
its operation in (and within) different policy fields suggests the difficulty of drawing
firm conclusions. Some initial interpretations and assessment of the material pre-
sented in this book are offered below, with the hope that this may encourage both
further empirical research and further work on developing an understanding of the
normative justifications for EU law’s global reach, and of the conditions that would
help to ensure that it operates in compliance with its own self-proclaimed values.
Joanne Scott’s chapter (Chapter 1) performs two functions. The first part of the
chapter provides an overview of some of the key techniques which the EU uses to
extend the global reach of its laws. It highlights the variety of jurisdictional triggers
upon which the EU relies and draws a distinction between extraterritoriality and
territorial extension. It also considers the relationship between territorial extension
and the influential concept of the Brussels Effect. Although the EU’s effort to extend
the global reach of its laws has sometimes proven to be controversial, Scott explores
the permissive approach of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).
Many of the concepts introduced by Scott in this chapter are illustrated by examples
in the chapters that follow. The first part of Scott’s chapter is intended to be descrip-
tive and analytical rather than normative.
The second part of Scott’s chapter is, however, to some degree normative. She uses
environmental protection as a case study to evaluate territorial extension in EU law.
To this end, she provides an overview of the EU’s global environmental footprint,
arguing that the EU is a major importer of raw materials and ecological assets and
that it uses more than its fair share of these. She argues further that the processes of
extracting, harvesting or making products destined for the EU market, or managing
the associated waste products, frequently cause severely negative impacts globally
and in third countries. With this in mind, Scott explores the question of whether an
understanding of the EU as being complicit in environmental wrongdoing in third
countries can help to justify the presence of territorial extension in EU environmen-
tal law. Drawing upon the understanding of complicity developed by Lepora and
Goodin,8 she argues that complicity can serve both as a justification for territorial

8 C. Lepora and R. E. Goodin, On Complicity and Compromise (2013).

extension and as a launching pad for critique. Thus, in contrast with much recent
literature on this theme, Scott argues that territorial extension can sometimes be
justified even where activities in third countries do not cause direct, substantial and
foreseeable effects within the EU.
The aim of Marise Cremona in Chapter 2 is to explore the ways in which, and for
what purposes, the EU uses its external relations powers and its wide range of exter-
nal instruments to extend the reach of EU law beyond its borders. Within the frame-
work of its external policies and governed by EU constitutional law, the EU maintains
a complex web of international legal relations, taking part in a multi-layered process
of unilateral, bilateral and multilateral normative interactions which cannot be cat-
egorized simply as either norm export or import. In exploring this process the chap-
ter clarifies the way in which the law shapes the EU’s external action, and the
centrality of law to the EU’s international actorness. Cremona examines three di-
mensions of the EU’s ‘actorness’ which illustrate different meanings that might be
attributed to the notion of ‘the global reach of EU law’ in the context of external rela-
tions and show three distinct—though overlapping—dynamics to the relationship
between law and external action.
First, the role law plays in the construction of the EU’s international legal presence
as a Union of values, as it navigates between its own constitution and international
legal principles. To what extent is law used to promote EU values externally, and to
what extent does law act as a constraint, ensuring that the EU upholds its values
(including human rights norms) in its external relations?
Second, law mediates between the EU and its external partners. The EU uses law
as a way of conducting its foreign policy, and of promoting its interests. Cremona
argues that the building of the EU as an integration project—‘integration through
law’—has an external as well as an internal quality. It is as a legal order that the EU
relates to the outside world, and the boundary between what is internal and what is
external to that order is a legal one; establishing that boundary is a necessary part of
defining the EU’s autonomous identity in relation to other actors. Law thus con-
strains the degree to which it is possible to integrate third countries into EU struc-
tures as well as the ways in which the EU can integrate itself into external, international,
legal regimes.
The third dimension presented by Cremona shows the EU as a regulatory actor
with a Treaty-based commitment to ‘multilateral solutions to common problems’
and ‘good global governance’; an actor engaged in shaping, importing and promot-
ing international legal norms. Its participation in these processes involves an
interaction between unilateral, bilateral and multilateral relations. If we look at the
ways in which the EU engages with the creation of norms at the international level,
what challenges does this pose for its claim to be a Union of values?
The governance of the Internet, and especially the application of the EU data
protection rules which are examined by Christopher Kuner in Chapter 3, might be
said to be a paradigmatic illustration of the phenomena introduced in these first two
chapters. The interaction between EU law and the Internet is multi-directional:
while EU law has impacts beyond its borders, the Internet poses both jurisdictional
and normative challenges for EU law. As Kuner shows, the global reach of EU law is
Marise Cremona and Joanne Scott 5

manifested in a variety of ways, ranging from requiring compliance with EU legal


standards beyond its borders to influencing the scope and content of third country
legislation and undertaking regulatory investigations in third countries. After intro-
ducing the complex multi-level structure and highly fragmented character of
Internet governance, including the interplay between EU and Member State com-
petence and action, Kuner’s chapter addresses four sets of issues. First, it explains the
role played in this field by key principles (or values) of EU law introduced in
Chapter 2: the principle of autonomy ensures that the EU’s constitutional principles,
including the rule of law and fundamental rights, are given priority even over
international obligations, and indeed constrain the type of international obligation
that the EU may contract. Given the fragmentation of Internet governance and the
resulting overlap of jurisdictions, this principle has become a powerful tool in the
hands of the CJEU, as Opinion 1/15 and the Schrems case illustrate.9
Second, the chapter outlines the areas of law where the Internet and EU law
interact, directly or indirectly, notably Internet governance, data protection and
rules on jurisdiction and applicable law such as those contained in the General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR). The GDPR in particular is an example of the ap-
plication of EU law beyond its territory, with its reach capable of extending to
Internet activity in third countries. The chapter then considers the mechanisms of
global reach, many but not all of which are the result of deliberate policy choices by
the EU: emulation and learning (from judgments such as Google Spain as well as
legislation such as the GDPR); participation in international fora and negotiations
(where the EU may compete for influence with others, such as the US); coercion and
conditionality, including adequacy decisions; and the (non-)recognition of third
country regulation or other legal measures such as court judgments.
Finally, Kuner addresses some of the normative issues raised by these mechanisms
and the EU’s approach to Internet governance beyond its borders. These include the
tension, referred to in Chapters 2 and 3 (Cremona and Kuner), between the EU’s
legal values and its political interests; Kuner advocates greater honesty in differentiat-
ing political agenda from law and warns of the ‘risk that legal values will be diluted to
fit a particular political agenda’. Closely connected is the risk that the EU’s stated
commitment to promoting rules-based ‘multilateral solutions to common problems’
will turn into an attempt to promote its own legal solutions by equating the latter
with universal values. And, Kuner argues, if the EU is seeking to gain widespread ac-
ceptance for its own regulatory model of data protection, including in developing
countries, then this carries responsibilities; the EU needs to recognize the commit-
ment that this will entail, as well as being alert to the risk of double standards.
In Chapter 4, Paul Davies explores the global influence of EU law in relation to the
pursuit of financial stability. He starts by explaining why the EU has a strong incentive
to exert global influence in this domain, having regard to the fragility of the business
model in global finance and to the high probability that a financial crisis starting in one

country will spread contagion across borders. Davies then turns to consider the impli-
cations of this for regulation, pointing out that there are three distinct ways in which a
country can respond to these challenges: reversing globalization; imposing its rules
extraterritorially; or coordinating laws at an international level.
Having identified these three possible routes, Davies then assesses the influence
of EU financial regulation. He starts by considering the EU’s influence at the
international level in bodies such as the G20/Financial Stability Board or the Basel
Committee on Banking Supervision. He then considers the extent of the EU’s influ-
ence via ‘mutual recognition’ by analysing the EU’s influence on the regulation of
central counterparties (CCPs) which are responsible for clearing over-the-counter
derivatives. He sees mutual recognition as a modified form of extraterritoriality,
whereby one country’s legislation includes an exception which allows for the recog-
nition of another jurisdiction’s rules where these are regarded as equivalent to its
own. Davies points out that the extent of the EU’s global influence may be expected
to depend not only upon the pull factor of the EU’s market for third country institu-
tions, but also upon the desire of EU institutions to be able to sell their products on
third country markets while being subject to EU rather than third country law.
In discussing the EU’s influence via mutual recognition, Davies provides a careful
exploration of the progress of mutual recognition between the EU and the US. He
alerts us to the important difference between the ‘equivalence’ mechanism in EU law
and ‘substituted compliance’ in US law. Whereas the former permits mutual recog-
nition of a third country’s substantive rules and its system for supervision and en-
forcement, the latter only permits the mutual recognition of a third country’s
substantive rules. Focusing on the example of CCPs, Davies illustrates the lengthy
and acrimonious nature of the EU-US dialogue on mutual recognition of CCPs.
Davies is alert to the implications of his analysis for the UK on the occasion of its
departure from the EU. He points out that at present three-quarters of all euro-
denominated interest rate derivatives are cleared by clearing houses established
in the UK. The Commission has formulated proposals that could require some
systemically important third country CCPs to become established within the EU.
Even where third country CCPs can continue to benefit from mutual recognition,
this would operate in a manner that is more akin to ‘substituted compliance’ in the
US than to equivalence, which has been the norm within the EU. An equivalence
determination would therefore imply recognition of the adequacy of a third coun-
try’s substantive rules but not of its arrangements for supervision and enforcement.
In his chapter on the extraterritorial effect and global reach of EU competition
law (Chapter 5), Giorgio Monti assesses the degree to which it is possible to identify
a ‘Brussels Effect’. He argues that although the Commission’s application of EU
competition law has a global reach, claims of a Brussels Effect or hegemony are
overstated. The global reach of EU competition law is, rather, based on cooperation
between agencies and an incremental convergence which emerges as the result of
sharing ideas and information. Identifying the risk of over- and under-enforcement
as being of more concern than the risk of EU hegemony, and considering the pros-
pect of the establishment of a global antitrust authority to be unrealistic, Monti asks
to what extent the two main external relations techniques used by the EU in this
Marise Cremona and Joanne Scott 7

field—cooperation agreements and the inclusion of antitrust clauses in bilateral


agreements—may help with these concerns.
The chapter takes the three core elements of EU competition law in turn: merger
control; unilateral conduct by dominant companies; and cartels. In the case of
merger control, Monti argues that the Brussels Effect (the wielding of unilateral
regulatory power) does not explain the global reach of EU antitrust law, and there is
little evidence of EU hegemony. Companies in merger cases are more concerned by
the problems caused by overlapping jurisdictions and the need for multiple notifica-
tions. Cooperation between antitrust agencies has become the norm; it is designed
to ensure coordination and where possible avoid divergent outcomes and the conse-
quent enforcement difficulties. In contrast, in the case of unilateral conduct by
dominant companies, the basis on which the EU exercises jurisdiction has been
controversial. The tests used (the economic entity and implementation doctrines)
mean in practice that EU law will apply if conduct which takes place abroad has an
effect on the EU market. There is, as Monti shows, more divergence between anti-
trust agencies and laws than in the case of either mergers or cartels, and coordination
between agencies has proved difficult. In the case of cartels, where the jurisdiction
rules are essentially the same as for unilateral conduct, the main controversy over the
reach of EU law has been over the level of fines imposed, although, as Monti points
out, it can be argued that in this way the EU contributes to global deterrence.
Agencies cooperate in handling investigations (e.g. in coordinating the inspection of
premises), with the most significant barrier to cooperation being the absence of
agreements on the sharing of confidential information.
Unilateral antitrust enforcement may be tempered by comity, but in Monti’s
opinion comity is more a matter of rhetorical goodwill than of practical value. More
important are inter-agency cooperation and exchanges of information, facilitated by
agreements. For the EU, especially in relation to the more significant economies, it
appears that cooperation is more important than seeking to export norms. As Monti
shows, the latest generation of antitrust cooperation agreements, such as the agree-
ment with Switzerland, establishes a level of cooperation close to that between the
European Commission and Member State national authorities. Where clauses on
antitrust are included within broader agreements, they may—depending on the
nature of the relationship—seek to align the partner country to the EU’s model of
competition law, but in other cases such as agreements with emerging economies,
‘the emphasis is placed more on conversation than on exporting rules’. Contact be-
tween authorities, cooperation and conversation may lead to convergence of rules,
but Monti counsels caution here: in his view it is important to maintain sufficient
divergence to allow for different positions (particularly between countries at differ-
ent levels of development) on the role played by antitrust law.
In Chapter 6, Bernard Ryan begins by charting the history and development of
the EU’s border regime before 2011. He sees this as ‘the joint product of the func-
tional and intergovernmental forces which shape EU integration’ and explores the
relationship between functional and intergovernmental elements. Already in this
pre-2011 phase, third countries were encouraged to play a role in EU border control
by preventing irregular migration and by readmitting persons who were present in
8 Introduction: EU Law Beyond EU Borders

the EU on an irregular basis. Ryan’s chapter includes a detailed overview of EU


cooperation on migration, which was conducted on a largely regional basis.
In the second part of his chapter, Ryan charts the shifting nature of the EU’s
border control regime, arguing that migration developments in the Central
Mediterranean (e.g. Albania, Tunisia and Libya) and Eastern Mediterranean (e.g.
Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq) served as a catalyst for these changes. Among the most
important of the changes tracked by Ryan is an expansion in the substantive and
geographical reach of EU law through cooperation with third countries. The conclu-
sion of a revised agreement with Tunisia in 2011 is exemplary in this respect. It
provided for a simplified procedure for the readmission of irregular migrants, an
enhancement of Tunisia’s efforts to prevent departures, and the supply of boats and
vehicles to the Tunisian authorities.
The migration crisis transformed the EU’s border control regime in both its
internal and external dimensions. As far as the internal dimension is concerned, it led
to a strengthening of the powers of the EU’s border control agency, Frontex. Ryan
demonstrates how the evolution of Frontex’s powers has led to ‘an enhancement of
the territorial reach of Frontex, by enabling far closer cooperation with third states’.
This includes the deployment of Frontex officials and teams to the territory of third
countries. This period also witnessed a series of Schengen governance reforms which
both sanctioned the reintroduction of internal controls by Member States and en-
hanced EU supervision of Schengen states struggling to police their external borders.
This latter element served to enhance the substantive reach of EU law.
As far as the external dimension is concerned, the EU has engaged in enhanced
cooperation with third countries both to prevent irregular migration to the EU and
to facilitate the return of irregular migrants to these third states. The EU relaunched
its Global Approach to Migration and Mobility (GAMM) in 2011 and pursued dia-
logue and cooperation with a wide range of third countries. The EU has both broad-
ened the range of countries with which it engages and altered the forms of cooperation
that it has pursued. For example, the EU has started to work more closely with
countries of transit such as Libya and Niger in order to prevent the departure of ir-
regular migrants from those countries. This includes cooperation with African states
and the launch of the EU Trust Fund for Africa in 2015. This fund has committed
funding of nearly €2bn and has financed initiatives aimed at migration control and
at improving employment opportunities and social services within the countries
from which the greatest number of irregular migrants originate. Substantial finan-
cial support has also been provided to state authorities in Turkey and to humanitar-
ian organizations assisting Syrian refugees in Turkey (€3bn made up of EU and
Member State contributions).
Significantly, Ryan argues that the EU’s strategy of preventing irregular migration
is not intended to export EU norms but rather to reduce the level of protection ac-
cruing to migrants, while simultaneously enabling the EU and its Member States to
avoid acquiring legal responsibility for them. The EU’s desire to side-step this re-
sponsibility is apparent even in situations where third countries are unable to provide
an adequate level of protection. Ryan points out that this is particularly an issue in
relation to Libya, which is not a party to the Refugee Convention. Ryan raises the
Marise Cremona and Joanne Scott 9

question of whether EU support to third countries for the purpose of controlling


irregular migration may in itself be sufficient to trigger international responsibility
under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) or international law.
Ryan also raises concerns in relation to EU-Turkey cooperation which similarly
weakens guarantees of legal protection, even providing for the possibility of the re-
turn of applicants who are currently seeking legal protection to third countries. This
includes Turkey, even though Turkey does not include non-Europeans within the
scope of the protection conferred by the Refugee Convention.

3. What Kinds of Global Reach?

All of the chapters included in this volume include examples of the global reach of
EU law. Cremona offers examples across the spectrum, ranging from unilateral EU
measures to bilateral and multilateral agreements which the EU has entered into.
The EU has endeavoured to export its acquis to its close neighbours, particularly in
the economic domain, and has developed sophisticated institutional mechanisms
for tracking developments in EU law.
Cremona also offers an example of the EU seeking to promote its own fundamen-
tal rights values globally by taking steps to avoid being complicit in the administra-
tion of the death penalty in third countries. It does so with the aim of building
acceptance and working towards a universalization of an anti-death-penalty norm,
seeking to further reinforce its status in third country and international law. In rela-
tion to this and other examples, the EU can be seen ‘taking’ norms from international
law, including soft law such as recommendations, and seeking to influence their
content. The EU then promotes these international norms via bilateral instruments
within and beyond its immediate neighbourhood. The area of money-laundering
offers a good example of this elaborate interplay between the unilateral, bilateral and
multilateral techniques that the EU uses to influence third country and international
law.
Scott introduces the concept of ‘territorial extension’ and exemplifies the different
levels at which this operates in EU law. She offers multiple examples of territorial
extension, including country-level territorial extension, to explore the different
modalities used by the EU to extend the global reach of its data protection laws.
Kuner uses this concept of territorial extension to explain the global reach of EU
data protection law. In this example, the effects of extending the EU acquis are felt at
different levels: internationally as the EU acts in international fora to shape
international norms; and in third countries as the EU acquis is used as a model to
incentivize the adoption by third countries of ‘adequate’ data protection laws. EU
data protection law is also shown to influence private actors in third countries.
Private actors exhibit a willingness to abide by EU norms in order to ensure the free
flow of data across EU borders through the inclusion of EU-recognized standard
contractual clauses.
Monti offers the clear example in competition policy of the EU targeting actions
that take place outside the EU if their effects will be felt within the EU. Though the
10 Introduction: EU Law Beyond EU Borders

EU has exhibited a willingness to act unilaterally in this respect, it has also cooperated
bilaterally with third countries to facilitate the enforcement of EU and third country
competition law. In the merger field, firms are keen to avoid being faced with multiple,
overlapping, regulations, and so they generally do not object to bilateral cooperation
when it is designed to prevent this. Nonetheless, by contrast to other examples dis-
cussed in this book, including data protection, there is little evidence of the EU
seeking to influence the substantive content of third country competition law
through binding means. There is likewise limited evidence of a ‘Brussels Effect’.
While Davies understands why the EU may wish to exert global influence on fi-
nancial regulation, he paints a picture of the EU which suggests that it has not been
very successful in this respect. He appraises the extent of the EU’s global influence at
the international level and as a result of its equivalence dialogue with the US in rela-
tion to CCPs. As far as the EU’s influence in international standard-setting is con-
cerned, Davies reaches a quite stark conclusion. The EU’s influence on the
development of international standards since the financial crisis has been low, and
Davies explores some of the reasons for this. The EU has largely been a rule-taker
rather than a rule-maker in this respect, and even where the EU has ‘struck out on its
own’, Davies suggests that it has struggled to find followers.
As far as the EU’s influence through mutual recognition/equivalence is concerned,
Davies argues that the EU has made only limited gains as a result of its efforts to
‘export’ its norms regarding CCPs to the US. While it may appear as if the EU has
made better ‘defensive’ use of equivalence in order to resist the importation of US
norms, the EU’s victory regarding the preservation of its net margining model for
CCPs was no more than a pyrrhic one. Retention of this model resulted in EU finan-
cial institutions being placed at a competitive disadvantage. Ultimately, therefore,
the EU decided to revise its previously hard-fought-for norms. ‘One might say that the
impact of mutual recognition dialogue was in fact to undermine, not to preserve,
the EU net margining rule’. Interestingly though, Davies points out that third coun-
try law can only be recognized as equivalent under EU law if the third country
in question has a comparable system of mutual recognition in place. The EU does
therefore seek to project the concept of equivalence as a norm externally.
Ryan traces EU cooperation with third countries aimed at reducing irregular
migration and readmitting irregular migrants who do reach the EU. Overall, he ar-
gues, there has been an unprecedented level of EU involvement in the migration
policies of third countries since 2011. As was noted previously, the EU has broad-
ened the range of countries that it engages with and has engaged in novel forms of
cooperation, including on operational matters. Ryan observes that cooperation has
been more successful in relation to some countries (e.g. Libya) than others (e.g.
Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt).
In the Central Mediterranean, the cumulative effect of EU initiatives (together
with Italy’s cooperation with the Libyan authorities) has been a reduction in the level
of irregular migration to the EU. For example, in the first four months of 2018, ar-
rivals from Libya were down by 82 per cent compared with the previous year. In the
Eastern Mediterranean, EU cooperation with Turkey and border controls in the
Western Balkans has led to a dramatic decline in the number of migrants arriving on
Marise Cremona and Joanne Scott 11

the Greek islands in 2016 and 2017. Ryan notes that this latter decline can help us
to understand why EU-Turkey cooperation in relation to migration is ongoing,
notwithstanding the Turkish Government’s suppression of dissent and opposition
internally since the failed coup in 2016.
However, it bears repeating that Ryan makes a convincing case that EU-third
country cooperation on migration results in a reduction of the level of international
protection accruing to migrants, including current applicants for protection, rather
than in exporting higher standards of protection enshrined in EU law.

4. The Role of Law: Enabling and Constraining the


Extraterritorial Reach of EU Law
This book seeks to understand more fully the role of law as a foundation of EU ex-
ternal power. Our contention is that there is a need to look beyond the instrumental
function of law and the use by the EU of the legal tools in its toolbox—although this
function is undoubtedly important—and to identify the ways in which law shapes
the EU’s external identity and its relations with other legal regimes. In this, the law
may both enable and constrain the EU’s external action. Each of the chapters in this
volume exemplifies the important role that law plays in enabling and constraining
the extraterritorial reach of EU law, and some elements of this are highlighted below.
Although the enabling and constraining functions of law have been separated out,
there is often an iterative dimension present whereby constraints serve as a catalyst
for the emergence of enabling devices and the emergence of new enabling devices
will occasionally provoke the emergence of additional constraints.

5. Law as an Enabler

A. The Permissive Stance of the CJEU


The CJEU has accepted that EU law may operate outside the borders of the EU, and
multiple examples can be found in the CJEU’s case law to support this claim. In her
chapter, Scott points to many of the relevant cases, particularly as they relate to the
lawfulness of territorial extension in EU law. She points out that the CJEU has up-
held the validity of measures giving rise to territorial extension and exhibited a
willingness to construe EU legislation broadly to permit its application to foreign
conduct.10 Following the Zuchtvieh case, Scott concludes that there appears to be no
presumption against extraterritoriality in EU law.11 Monti also explores the case law
of the CJEU, including a discussion of the recent Intel case in which it endorsed the

¹0 For one example of the former, see Case C-366/10, Air Transportation of America ex parte Secretary
of State for Energy and Climate Change (ATAA) (ECLI:EU:C:2011:864) and of the latter see Case
C-424/13, Zuchtvieh-Export GmbH (ECLI:EU:C:2015:259).
¹¹ Zuchtvieh, note 10.
12 Introduction: EU Law Beyond EU Borders

presence of a ‘qualified effects’ doctrine in EU law.12 Monti also points to the fact that
the CJEU has upheld the Commission’s practice of setting fines for breach of com-
petition law without taking account of fines that have been imposed by third coun-
try agencies. Kuner also offers examples of the CJEU’s permissive stance, including
the well-known cases of Google Spain13 and Schrems.14 In the latter, the CJEU adopted
a strict approach to enforcing country-level territorial extension in EU law.

B. Equivalence as an Emerging Principle of EU Law


As is explained by Davies in his chapter, the concept of equivalence operates to
soften the impact of a full-blown extraterritorial application of norms. It does so by
preventing direct conflicts of norms and/or by preventing the emergence of overlap-
ping norms from different jurisdictions even where these norms are not in direct
conflict. The concept of equivalence also serves to accommodate differences in regu-
latory approach, at least up to the point where these differences are deemed to im-
pede unduly the attainment of the EU’s regulatory objectives.
Equivalence is found in different forms throughout EU law giving rise to territorial
extension. In its narrow form, it permits the disapplication of EU law when it is in
direct conflict with EU-equivalent third country laws. In its broader form, it permits
the disapplication of EU law in favour of third country law, even in the absence of a
direct conflict. An example of a broader conception of equivalence can be seen in
Kuner’s discussion of the Schrems case.15 Here, the CJEU has interpreted the concept
of adequacy in the data protection directive as necessitating an evaluation of whether
a third country has EU-equivalent standards of protection in place. In its narrow
form, the concept of equivalence has recently found favour with the CJEU when
construing legislation that did not contain an explicit reference to this concept. In
Zuchtvieh, the CJEU emphasized that where the law or administrative practice of a
third country verifiably and demonstrably precludes full compliance with EU law,
EU competent authorities are entitled to accept compliance with third country meas-
ures which ensure an EU-equivalent level of protection.16 This indicates that at least
in its narrow form, which aims at the avoidance of direct conflict, equivalence may be
emerging as a principle of EU law.

C. Law Enabling New Forms of Integration


Cremona’s chapter notes the central importance in the EU’s external relations (as
in the EU’s internal evolution) of the development of relationships based on eco-
nomic, political and legal integration. These relationships are driven by and based
on law; complex institutional frameworks have enabled new highly dynamic forms
and structures of close integration, which, as illustrated by the European Economic

¹² Case C-413/14 P, Intel Corporation (ECLI:EU:C:2017:632), judgment of 6 September 2017.

Area Agreement and the Association Agreement with Ukraine, have been espe-
cially effective in the EU’s neighbourhood. This external law of integration, as well
as promoting the EU’s regulatory approaches across a wide range of economic
fields, enables the EU’s efforts to achieve further objectives, such as the moderniza-
tion of the economies of neighbouring countries, and an increase in their legal and
political stability. The innovative solutions found, such as the EFTA Court and the
EFTA Surveillance Authority, have at least in part been prompted by the legal
constraints imposed by the principle of autonomy, as examined later, at
section 6.A.
Law also acts as a catalyst for cooperation. The extraterritorial application of EU
law may trigger agreements with third countries which mitigate these effects, either
through mechanisms of equivalence, as mentioned earlier, or by facilitating
cooperation in enforcement. In the field of data protection, for example, an impetus
can be seen towards bilateral agreements with third countries, which are designed to
ensure the adequacy (equivalence) required by the EU’s own legislation, such as the
‘Privacy Shield’ agreed with the US. Agreements may also be designed to meet the
requirements of the EU’s Charter of Fundamental Rights, such as the agreements on
the transfer of airline passenger name records (PNR) to third countries. Cooperation
agreements in the domain of competition law are more concerned with enforcement
than the equivalence of substantive norms.

D. Law Enabling New Forms of Extraterritorial Enforcement of EU Law


As will be discussed later, public international law precludes states from enforcing
their laws extraterritorially. However, the chapters included in this volume illustrate
that the EU has developed mechanisms and strategies that aim to ensure that its laws
are enforced in third countries while not breaching the norm prohibiting extra-
territorial enforcement. Four such mechanisms will be highlighted here.
First, as was noted in the discussion of Davies’ contribution, mutual recognition
in EU law extends not only to a third country’s substantive rules but also to its system
for ensuring compliance with EU law. Thus, when the EU makes market access
conditional upon a third country achieving an EU-equivalent level of protection, it
performs a meta-regulatory function by, on the one hand, outsourcing responsibil-
ity for securing compliance to third countries and, on the other hand, by overseeing
the adequacy of their arrangements for supervision and enforcement.
Second, and closely related, the EU frequently makes access to the EU’s market
conditional upon a third country and/or private actors within that country making
it permissible for EU or EU-approved personnel to conduct inspections within the
territory of that third country. EU law is replete with examples of this kind. For
example, EU aviation security validators act on behalf of EU Member States when
they assess the appropriateness of security measures applied by air-cargo handling
entities in third country airports.17 EU aviation security validators must be approved

¹7 Commission Implementing Regulation 2015/1998 of 5 November 2015 laying down detailed


measures for the implementation of common basic standards on aviation security, OJ 2009 L 299/1.
14 Introduction: EU Law Beyond EU Borders

by an EU Member State. EU regulation of recognized organizations in the maritime


sector offers another good example.18 The European Maritime Safety Authority
regularly inspects third country recognized organizations in third country ports; and
in entering into contracts with shipowners, such organizations must include a con-
tractual clause to ensure that the EU Commission may gain access to ships, even
when they are situated in third country ports.
Third, the EU enters into cooperation agreements with third countries to facili-
tate enforcement of its laws extraterritorially. Monti offers an excellent example of
this in his chapter on competition law. In this arena, cooperation agreements serve
not only formalize comity (e.g. by ensuring that a merger will be acceptable to both
authorities), but also lay down rules enabling joint investigations and the transfer of
confidential information.
Finally, in at least one recent example, the EU has sought input from individuals
within third countries to assist in monitoring compliance with EU law. Thus,
natural and legal persons affected or likely to be affected by a breach of relevant
provisions in the EU’s ship recycling regulation, or having a sufficient interest in
environmental decision-making in relation to such matters, are entitled to request
the Commission to take action with respect to such a breach or imminent threat
of such a breach.19 Where such a request shows in a plausible manner that a breach
is imminent or has already occurred, the Commission shall give the ship recycling
company in question a right to be heard, and shall inform the party making the
request of its decision to accede to or refuse the request for action, and provide
reasons for this decision. In this scenario, individuals or organizations within third
countries are empowered to alert the Commission to the existence of a breach of
EU law.

6. Law as a Constraint

In identifying some of the ways in which law may act as a constraint to the extra-
territorial reach of EU law, it becomes clear that although these responses form part
of the broader structure of EU constitutional and administrative law, they are not as
such parts of a considered legal response to extraterritorial reach. In that sense, they
are ad hoc. Some (such as autonomy) are rather fully developed through case law;
others are in a process of evolution (such as the extraterritorial impact of fundamen-
tal rights); others are rather under-developed (such as the principles governing third
country interests, and procedural constraints).

A. The Principle of Autonomy


The principle of the autonomy of EU law imposes constraints on institutional ar-
rangements negotiated with third countries. It requires that these ensure the inde-
pendence of EU institutions in matters of decision-making, and the primacy of the
CJEU in its interpretation of EU law, including in particular the division of compe-
tence between the EU and its Member States. As the EEA case law demonstrates,
this poses a challenge for the EU in developing close relationships of integration
with third countries under conditions of equality. Since it precludes full third coun-
try participation in EU decision-making, agreements which envisage a high degree
of integration or even homogeneity between the EU acquis and the integration re-
gime, will essentially require the third country partner to become a norm-taker. In
other contexts where equivalence rather than legal integration is the basis of an ex-
ternal relationship—such as in the EU’s bilateral agreements on data protection—
the principle of autonomy is less constraining, although it may impact institutional
choices, for example on the role of the CJEU.
The principle of autonomy also makes it difficult for the EU to participate in ex-
ternal regulatory regimes, especially if these include decision-making or adjudica-
tion.20 Where the EU has sufficient negotiating strength it may be able both to
influence the content of an external regime and to ensure—through the insertion of
a ‘disconnection clause’—that as far as the EU Member States are concerned the
external regime does not displace the operation of EU law.21 The EU acquis is pro-
tected but at a cost in terms of fragmentation of the international regime.

B. Public International Law


The CJEU has stated repeatedly that when the EU adopts an act, it is ‘bound to
observe international law in its entirety’, including customary international law.22
The CJEU has been willing to review the validity or legality of an EU act in light of
customary international law, albeit that it limits judicial review to appraising whether
the EU has committed a manifest error of assessment as far as the principles of cus-
tomary international law are concerned.23 In the Air Transportation of America case,
the CJEU endorsed the validity of an EU measure giving rise to territorial extension
on the basis that aircraft that are physically present within the EU are subject to the
unlimited jurisdiction of the EU and its Member States.24 Regardless of whether one

16 Introduction: EU Law Beyond EU Borders

reads this case as being concerned with the exercise of prescriptive or enforcement
jurisdiction by the EU, it remains true that customary international law prohibits
states from enforcing (as opposed to prescribing) their laws extraterritorially.25
However, as was noted earlier, the EU has developed a number of novel mechanisms
to facilitate the extraterritorial enforcement of EU law.
The CJEU has also been willing to assess the validity or legality of an EU act by
reference to the standards laid down in an international agreement where a number
of conditions are met. The agreement in question must be binding on the EU, its
nature and broad logic must not be such as to preclude it being relied upon by indi-
viduals, and the content of the agreement must be unconditional and sufficiently
precise.26 In practice, these conditions can be difficult to fulfil and the CJEU has
often concluded that international agreements that are binding on the EU are not
suitable to confer rights on individuals which they can rely on in court.27 For
example, subject to exceptions which have been narrowly construed, the CJEU has
not proven to be willing to review the validity or legality of an EU act on the basis
that it is alleged to infringe World Trade Organization (WTO) law.28

C. Fundamental Human Rights in EU Law and International Law


Fundamental human rights are among the EU’s values as set out in Article 2 TEU and
the CJEU has taken a clear position that human rights compliance ‘is required of all
actions of the European Union’, including external action.29 Likewise, international
agreements concluded by the EU are required to comply with EU primary law, in-
cluding fundamental human rights as protected by the Charter.30 The priority of EU
constitutional law (including the Charter) imposes constraints on what the EU can
agree to, and the Charter thus provides a baseline or set of minimum standards which
third countries wanting to conclude agreements with the EU have to accept, given
the risk of an ex ante or ex post finding of illegality.31 This legal constraint on the EU
may thus appear as a strength: as Kuner points out, the priority that the CJEU insists
should be given to fundamental principles of EU law in cases such as Schrems gives
the EU some leverage in a ‘pluralistic and fragmented’ scenario where several jurisdic-
tions may cover the same actors or conduct without clear priority rules.
The precise degree to which the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights applies in
extraterritorial contexts may still be debated, although it seems clear that the refer-
ences to human rights in Article 3(5) and 21 TEU provide a firm basis for arguing

that it carries a legal effect beyond the EU’s territorial borders.32 Although Advocate
General Wathelet in the Polisario case rejected the applicability of the Charter out-
side the EU on the grounds that none of the conditions established by the European
Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) for the extraterritorial application of the ECHR
were met,33 he accepted the argument that the EU was bound to consider the impact
of its external actions as regards erga omnes and peremptory international law obliga-
tions, including the right of self-determination.
In principle, the constitutional conditions for the legality of an EU act conclud-
ing an international agreement include compliance with peremptory norms of
international law.34 The CJEU in both the Polisario and Western Sahara cases refused
to interpret an EU agreement in contravention of peremptory norms of international
law, despite institutional practice.35 However, the EU’s (and the Member States’)
potential responsibility for breaches of international human rights law beyond its
borders may influence policy in a less benign manner. The ruling of the ECtHR in
Hirsi Jamaa to the effect that Italy has jurisdiction over migrants intercepted by its
vessels at sea, and that it would be unlawful to return them to Libya where this would
expose them to the risk of inhuman and degrading treatment, has, Ryan argues,
shaped EU policy on irregular migration, putting an emphasis on preventing
departure from third countries, and encouraging return to third countries which—
like Turkey—are deemed safe despite concerns over compliance with the Refugee
Convention.36 This strategy is aimed not at exporting EU human rights norms, nor
on promoting international human rights law, but rather at avoiding legal responsi-
bility being placed on the EU and its Member States. Ryan questions the extent of
the EU’s responsibility for human rights abuses that are not attributable to EU
Member States directly, but in relation to which the EU may be considered to be a
secondary agent from a complicity perspective.

D. The Duty to Take into Account Third Country Interests


In some of the chapters that follow, the EU is criticized for failing to take third
country interests sufficiently into account when it extends (or indeed fails to extend)

18 Introduction: EU Law Beyond EU Borders

the geographical reach of its laws. For example, Scott argues that the EU is not suf-
ficiently attentive to potential negative third country consequences during the pro-
cess leading to the adoption of the sustainable fishing and ship recycling regulations.
Monti points to the fact that the EU does not take action against export cartels in the
EU if their effects are not felt within the Union, even though these cartels may be
very damaging to the developing countries in which the effects are felt. Needless to
say, contrary examples can be found. In its seals regulation,37 for example, the EU
included an indigenous peoples exception which was intended to protect the funda-
mental economic and social interests of Inuit communities engaged in the hunting
of seals as a means of ensuring their subsistence.38
This raises the question of whether the EU is under a legal obligation to take third
country interests into account when it adopts measures that render EU law applicable
in relation to foreign conduct. As a preliminary point, it is clear that WTO law
permits members to design their regulations in a manner that achieves a balance
between different objectives. For example, it would, in principle, be permissible for
the EU to include an indigenous peoples exception in its seals regulation even where
this undermines to some degree the contribution made by the measure to the attain-
ment of its principal objective. However, it would be incumbent on the EU to ex-
plain why ‘the need to protect the economic and social interests of the Inuit and
other indigenous peoples necessarily implies that the European Union cannot do
anything further to ensure that the welfare of seals is addressed in the context of
[indigenous communities’] hunts’.39
It is also arguable that the WTO goes one step further, by requiring members to
take into account ‘different conditions which may occur in the territories of . . . other
Members’.40 The Appellate Body suggested that discrimination may occur not only
when countries in which the same conditions prevail are treated differently, but also
when the application of a regulatory measure ‘does not allow for any inquiry into the
appropriateness of the regulatory program for the conditions prevailing in those
exporting countries’.41 Nonetheless, the implications of this statement have not been
spelt out.
Within the EU, Commission initiatives and EU legislation should be prepared on
the basis of transparent, comprehensive and balanced evidence, making use of the
tool of impact assessments.42 Those preparing such assessments are assisted by guide-
lines that have been drawn up by the EU Commission which list the different
categories of impacts that are to be identified.
Impacts that may occur within third countries feature quite prominently in the
tables specifying the kinds of impacts that are to be taken into account. This includes
economic impacts, such as impacts on foreign businesses and consumers and

industrial school, I suppose."

"That is what the policeman said; but, grandpa, that


boy, with his sweet face and gentle ways, to mix with boys
of the worst sort—"

"Probably he is one of that class himself, Edith. Depend


upon it, the young rogue knows the value of those gentle
ways. Now what do you want me to do—not adopt the lad,
surely?"

"No, grandpa, not that," said Edith, smiling; "but I was


thinking, if we could send him to Mr. Mouncey, he would
know what to do with him."

"Mouncey! What made you think of him? Upon my


word, that's not a bad suggestion. Mouncey's fond of
ragamuffins. He'd make something of him, if any one could.
But why should we trouble about it? Better leave him to the
magistrate."

"Grandpa, that little boy was in my class one Sunday


afternoon; I felt strangely drawn to him; I do still. I am
sure he is a good boy."

Colonel Carruthers was silent for a few moments.


Across his mind had come again the vision of that other
boy, with his broad, fair brow, his open, innocent gaze. His
face contracted as if with pain. A heavy sigh escaped him
ere he said—

"Do not trust too much to appearances, Edie. These


sweet, innocent-looking children are very disappointing.
This boy will most likely turn out a scoundrel. But I'll think
about it; I will see what I can do."
The colonel did think about it, with the result that he
decided to send Gus to Rayleigh, a village in Kent, where
the colonel had a small estate, and consign him to the care
of the Rev. Sebastian Mouncey, a clergyman who took a
special interest in orphan lads, and had instituted a cottage
home for them in his parish. But the police desired that Gus
should be detained at hand for a day or two, that he might
be ready to identify Lucas and his son if they were arrested.
But though the police made every effort to track the
burglars, and expressed confidence in their ultimate
success, the two men appeared to have got well out of their
reach.

Gus did not feel particularly glad when Edith told him of
the plan that had been made for him. He would rather have
gone back to his old life at Sally Dent's. It was a poor home
he had with her, but he could hardly remember the days
when he had known a better one. Sally had been kind to
him in her way, and now he knew he was not to return to
them, he was conscious of a strange drawing of the heart
towards Sally and her children, and all the people with
whom he had lived at Lavender Terrace. He became aware
that he had an affection even for the baby—the heavy,
fretful, exacting baby, who had so often made his arms to
ache, and tried his patience to the utmost.

And Lucy—Gus thought of her with an aching heart. He


longed to know what had become of her, and wondered
sadly if he should ever see her again. Gus begged that he
might be allowed to go and say good-bye to Sally and her
children ere he went away into the country.

Edith thought the wish quite to his credit, and


persuaded her grandfather to grant it. But he was still
suspicious of the lad, and thinking it might be a ruse to
effect an escape, he resolved to accompany Gus to
Glensford.

Though Sally had declared that Gus should never


darken her doors again, she received him kindly, being
impressed by his appearance in the neat new suit of clothes
in which Edith had seen him arrayed, and also by the
stateliness of the gentleman who accompanied him.

The colonel did not enter the house, but stood on the
doorstep, in a position to see that Gus escaped neither by
window nor door from Sally's room, into which she had
drawn him.

Sally questioned him eagerly as to all that had


happened since he left her house; she admired his clothes,
she pressed him to drink from her black bottle, whilst the
children gathered round him, pleased to see their old friend
again.

"Mrs. Dent," said Gus, when at last Sally paused, "I


wish you would give me that Bible of father's. I should like
to take it with me where I am going; I have nothing that
belonged to him. You have it still, have you not?"

Mrs. Dent hesitated. She glanced at the high shelf on


which the Bible lay, and then through the half-open door at
the colonel's stately form. She longed to refuse the request.
She never read the Bible, but none the less she wished to
keep that handsome copy. But she knew she had no right to
keep it from the boy, and she believed that if she refused,
Gus would call the colonel to insist upon her giving him his
own. So reluctantly she climbed on a chair, and lifted down
the book. She undid the paper in which it was wrapped, and
looked regretfully at the embossed covers.
"One don't often see a Bible like this," she remarked,
and with that she opened it.

Strange to say, it opened at the very page on which she


had last closed it, and again the warning words met her
glance, "The wages of sin is death."

She started, closed the book, and thrust it from her.

"Take it!" she cried. "Take it, and welcome. I don't want
it. It's not the book for me. I can't bear to be reminded of
death and the grave, and all dismal things."

And of sin—she would fain forget that there was such a


thing as sin, and that she was a sinner.

"What have you in that parcel?" asked the colonel,


when the boy presently came out of Sally's room.

"My father's Bible, sir."

The colonel's person stiffened visibly. He elevated his


chin, drew his military cloak about him with an air of
annoyance, and with a commanding gesture signed to Gus
to precede him as they passed out of Lavender Terrace.

"That's cant," he said to himself; "wants to do the


religious, does he? His father's Bible, indeed! As if a boy
whose father believed in the Bible would ever have fallen so
miserably low!"

A profound distrust of those whom he was wont to


describe as the "lower orders" was engrained in the
colonel's character, and especially was he doubtful of any
such if they professed to be religious.
CHAPTER XV.
RAYLEIGH.

WITH that visit to Lavender Terrace, Gus' old life came


to an end. The next morning Edith and her grandfather saw
him into the train for Rayleigh.

Mr. Mouncey, the energetic young vicar of Rayleigh,


would meet him at the other end of his journey. Edith had
no fear for him, since he was going to Mr. Mouncey; yet the
boy had already won for himself such a place in her heart
that she felt parting with him.

"We shall come to Rayleigh in the spring, I hope," she


said, "so I shall see you then, Gus."

The boy smiled his sweet, winsome smile, but tears


rose suddenly in his eyes. He was leaving this kind friend,
he was leaving behind every one he had ever known, and
going to a place of which he knew nothing, and his heart
sank within him at the thought.

"Look here, young sir," said the colonel sharply, "mind


you do your duty where you are going. You attend to what
Mr. Mouncey says, and he will make a man of you."

Make a man of him! What sort of a man? Gus


wondered, as Miss Edith's form receded from his view, and
he knew that the train was bearing him out of London. A
gentleman—such a gentleman as his father had wished him
to be? That was what Gus desired to become.

Rayleigh was a long, straggling village, with few houses


that were not the dwellings of working people. A deep, still
river ran through the place, and supplied the need of its
chief industry, the large paper mill that stood upon its
banks.

Most of those who dwelt in the small brick cottages


were engaged in the mill. The long lines of these cottages
were not picturesque, but the village could boast the beauty
of a fine old church, with an ivy-mantled tower. Close to the
church was the vicarage, a large square house, once the
home of a numerous family; but the former vicar had
removed to another living, and his successor, being young
and unmarried, seemed out of place in the big house. But
he was a warm-hearted, genial man, and soon gathered
plenty of life about himself.

Within a stone's throw of the vicarage was his cottage


home for orphan lads, a veritable home, where, under the
care of a good-natured, motherly widow, the boys lived a
free and happy life. The vicar showed them a kindness
which fell little short of that of a father. The boys had well-
nigh the run of the vicarage. They dug and tended the
garden, which was one of the best in the neighbourhood,
and were rewarded with the finest of the fruit and
vegetables.

Mr. Mouncey supplemented the instruction they received


at the village school with informal classes held of an
evening in his large old dining-room. He had had no
intention of founding an orphanage. A desire to befriend a
poor woman who had lost her husband, and two young lads
who had been deprived of both father and elder brother by
an accident at the mill, had led to the opening of the
cottage. Other orphan lads in the neighbourhood, who must
otherwise have been sent to the nearest workhouse, were,
as time went on, placed in it. Sometimes friends at a
distance asked the vicar to take charge of a forlorn lad; but,
as a rule, the inmates of the cottage were boys whose
antecedents were well known to Sebastian Mouncey. Gus
was the first who came there with a stigma upon him—a
boy who had associated with thieves.

But Mr. Mouncey had a welcome for him, not alone


because of the generous way in which the colonel, whilst
prophesying to Mr. Mouncey the disappointment of his
hopes, had been ever ready to open his purse to increase
the funds by which the cottage home was maintained; but
also because the utter friendlessness of the boy was a sure
passport to Sebastian's heart.

He kept to himself all that the colonel had told him of


Gus' history. The boy should not begin his new life at
Rayleigh with an ill name. And whatever fears the vicar
might have concerning his new charge, he showed no
suspicion of him. Nothing could be kinder than the way in
which he welcomed Gus.

Gus, as he looked into his face, and met the glance of


Mr. Mouncey's kind, earnest eyes, said to himself, "A
gentleman—one of the right sort." And this conviction
deepened in the boy's mind as he came to know Sebastian
Mouncey better. His was indeed the gentle heart from which
springs the gentle life.

As for Mr. Mouncey, he was delightfully surprised at the


appearance of the boy committed to his care. Simple-
hearted as a child himself, and frank almost to eccentricity,
he was quick to feel the charm of the boy's artless grace.
Gus was not at all the kind of boy he expected to see. He
was not a boy of a low type. There was no sign of deceit,
meanness, or rascality on his small, well-formed features.
The clergyman looked at him, and marvelled.

It was curious how quickly the two came to understand


each other. A bond was forged between them from the hour
of their meeting.

Gus got on well with the boys in the cottage home. He


was friendly with them all, but he made no special friend of
any one. It was the vicar who was his friend.

Mr. Mouncey soon discovered that the boy had unusual


abilities. He took trouble and sacrificed time in order to give
Gus further instruction than he obtained at the village
school. He began to teach him Latin, and was astonished at
the rapidity with which he mastered the rudiments of that
language. Once when the vicar was teaching him, Gus let
fall a word which showed that his father had understood
Latin.

"Your father?" said Mr. Mouncey in surprise. "Then he


was an educated man?"

"My father was a gentleman once," said Gus, with


unconscious dignity.

"Once!" repeated the vicar. "What do you mean?"

"He was a gentleman once," said Gus again; "but then


—" The boy paused, and a deep flush of shame dyed his
face.

"An educated man who lost his character, and sank to


be the companion of thieves and vagabonds," thought the
vicar, and forbore to question the boy further. All he said
was, "You must be a true gentleman, Gus."

The boy looked at him with quick, questioning glance.

"Howe'er it be, it seems to me


It's only noble to be good—"

Quoted Mr. Mouncey.

Gus' eyes flashed a quick, comprehensive response, but


he made no other reply.

The first winter which Gus spent in the country was a


happy one. He now made acquaintance with the real
country, which is very different from the suburban country
on which London so greedily encroaches.

Gus thoroughly enjoyed the long rambles Mr. Mouncey


would sometimes take with the boys on a clear, frosty day.
Gus loved to see the grass and hedges all glittering with
hoar-frost, or to hear the crisp silvery leaves crack beneath
his tread as they walked through the woods. He thought the
trees looked beautiful, with their great branches, bare save
for ivy or lichen, outlined against the blue sky. He loved to
watch the birds and squirrels, and even hares made tame
almost by severe cold, and to learn all Mr. Mouncey could
tell him of their habits. How Gus enjoyed, too, the novel
delight of learning to skate on the frozen river, and the
effects of the first heavy snowfall, the work of clearing the
church and vicarage paths, and the snowballing, which the
boys were not likely to omit.
And no less, though in a different way, he enjoyed the
bright Sunday services in the beautiful old church, and the
class in the vicar's dining-room on Sunday afternoons, when
he talked to the boys of the one perfect life of the God-man,
through the knowledge of whom we may become "partakers
of the Divine Nature."

In the spring, Colonel Carruthers and his


granddaughter, accompanied by Miss Durrant, came to
Rayleigh.

The colonel's house was at some distance from the


vicarage, at the opposite end of the village. It was an old-
fashioned thatched house, with a flower garden in front of
it. A fir plantation stretched to the right, and behind, just
beyond the well-stocked kitchen garden, rose a bit of
breezy, furzy common, the top of which commanded a view
all over the village.

Looking down, one saw the river stealing along the


meadows with a gentle curve, now to this side and now to
that, till it reached the large stone buildings, pierced by
numerous small windows, where so many hands were
employed in paper-making. Near the mill stood a large
house, also of stone, and an imposing structure in its way,
with bay windows and turrets. This was the residence which
the owner of the mill had built for himself. Observing the
house and the well-laid-out gardens which surrounded it,
one could hardly doubt that the business was a prosperous
concern.

Yet, if rumour could be trusted, the mill had not paid


well of late, and the proprietor was beset by difficulties. It
was feared that a day might come when the working of the
mill would be suspended; an event which threatened ruin to
the hands employed. But months had passed since these
rumours began to circulate, and the mill had gone on
working all the same. And now that the winter was over,
and signals of summer's approach were beginning to appear
everywhere, anxiety ceased to burden the minds of the
working folk.

On the April evening following that of their arrival at


Rayleigh, Edith and her grandfather were walking across the
common, enjoying the beauty of the sunset, when Mr.
Mouncey climbed over the low stone wall, accompanied by
two or three of his boys, Gus being one of the party. It was
the colonel's first meeting with the vicar, and he greeted
him heartily.

"This is never Gus," said Edith, turning to look at the


boys, when she had shaken hands with the clergyman.

The boy had indeed greatly changed since she saw him.
He had grown taller, and though slender, looked strong and
well-formed. His hair, though closely cut, still showed a
tendency to curl; his cheeks had now the bright hue of
health; his eyes were blue as ever, and the smile which lit
up his face as Edith spoke to him had all the old sweetness.
But whilst it was the same sweet, boyish face, the
seriousness of its expression had deepened. Gus had
learned much and thought much since he left London, and
his countenance revealed the quickened mental and
spiritual life.

The colonel had nodded kindly to Gus. His eyes now


took quick, observant survey of the boy as he stood talking
to Edith. His glance seemed to sadden as it rested on the
child.

"He has improved," he remarked in an undertone.


"What do you think of him, Mouncey? How will he do?"
"Well," was the prompt reply; "I have not a doubt of it.
I never had such a boy as Gus in my home before."

"Indeed! How does he differ from the others?"

"In every way. They are good lads, most of them, but
their minds are dull and slow, their manners rough and
boorish. There is a peculiar gentleness about Gus, a
goodness of heart, an unselfishness, an innate charm, I
hardly know how to describe. Then as to his mind—he can
learn anything; he grasps my ideas in a moment. Oh, I
have the highest hopes of him."

"I would not have, if I were you," said the colonel drily.
"You are too sanguine, as I often tell you. Depend upon it,
you will be disappointed."

"I am not afraid," said Mr. Mouncey, with a smile. "I can
tell you, Gus is a little gentleman."

"Gus—Gus what?" asked the colonel abruptly. "I


suppose he has another name?"

"Gus Rew," said Mr. Mouncey.

"Rew! You can't make much of that," said Colonel


Carruthers. "It is not an aristocratic patronymic. But every
one is a gentleman nowadays. The grand old name is
indeed—

"Defamed by every charlatan,


And soiled with all ignoble use.
"Still, to apply it to the son of a burglar does seem to
me going too far."

"I do not think that Gus' father was a burglar," replied


Mr. Mouncey.

The colonel shrugged his shoulders impatiently.

Mr. Mouncey thought it advisable to introduce another


subject.

"Have you heard of the change we are to have here?"


he asked, pointing towards the mill.

"I have heard nothing; I only arrived last night."

"Mr. Gibson has sold the mill. You know, perhaps, that
for some time past he has been carrying it on at a loss. Now
he has made over the whole concern to some one else."

"And who is the purchaser?"

"Some one from London. Philip Darnell is his name."

As it passed his lips, Mr. Mouncey saw that the name


was not unknown to the colonel. The old soldier gave a
slight start, his colour changed, his brow contracted, as if
with pain.

"You know this gentleman, perhaps?" Mr. Mouncey


ventured to suggest.

"By hearsay only," replied Colonel Carruthers stiffly. "He


is of your complexion politically, Mouncey. He came forward
as a candidate for one of the suburban boroughs some time
ago, but was not elected. You will perhaps find him a
sympathetic companion."
Mr. Mouncey shook his head, and smiled good-
temperedly. "He will hardly sympathise with my politics, I
fear," he said. "He must be a rich man, and few rich men
can tolerate such an out-and-out Radical as I am."

Another one present had caught the name of Philip


Darnell, and was no less startled by it than the colonel. Gus
stood near enough to hear it, and the sound sent a thrill
through his boyish frame. Philip Darnell! His father's enemy!
The man he had seen on that summer morning nearly a
year ago, when he had made that long tramp with his father
in search of employment, and his father had refused the
work when found because it was to be done for this man.

In the night that followed his father had died, and every
incident of that last day together was vividly imprinted on
Gus' memory. This was the man who had wrought his
father's ruin, the man on whom he had promised to be
revenged, if ever it was in his power. Was the chance
coming to him now?

Gus remembered every word which his father had


uttered concerning Philip Darnell; but other words which his
father had said to him had almost faded from his mind. He
had hardly given a thought since his father's death to the
fact that Rew was not his real name. He had forgotten the
slip of paper inserted within the lining of the old Bible; but
now it suddenly flashed on his mind, and he wondered what
was the long name his father had written that day.

At that moment Mr. Mouncey, was saying, "Good-


evening, Colonel Carruthers."

Gus had heard the colonel's name often before; but a


novel thought came to him as he heard it now. Had not the
name his father had declared to be his sounded something
like that—something like Carruthers? Could it be? But, no, it
must be his fancy; it seemed impossible that a poor boy,
such as he was, should have the same name as a
gentleman like the colonel. And what did it matter what his
right name was? Gus Rew was a nice, easy little name,
which did very well for him.

CHAPTER XVI.
GUS BEGINS TO WORK FOR HIMSELF.

COLONEL CARRUTHERS remained but a few weeks at


Rayleigh. He did not wait to see Philip Darnell established in
Mr. Gibson's late residence.

Edith was sorry to leave the country in the lovely


spring-time, when woods and fields were bright with flowers
and with the songs of birds; but her grandfather seemed
suddenly to have taken a dislike to Rayleigh. He was not to
be persuaded to extend his stay, and soon after their return
to the neighbourhood of London Edith learned, to her
regret, that the colonel had let the Retreat, as his country
house was named, to a gentleman for a term of three
years.

Edith was sorry, not alone because she loved the place,
but also because she had counted on seeing, from time to
time, Gus, in whom she continued to feel much interest.
She knew, however, that Gus could not be better off than in
the care of Mr. Mouncey, so she tried to console herself with
the reflection that he did not want her now, and the boys in
her Sunday class at Glensford did. But somehow, there was
not one of these boys whom she loved as she loved Gus.
There was something so charming about the frank, manly
boy; he was at once so gentle and so bold. She was
disposed to say, with Mr. Mouncey, that she had never seen
a lad just like him.

The news that Mr. Gibson had sold the mill was received
with sorrow by his work-people. They had served him for so
many years—some of the older men had worked for his
father before they worked for him—that the idea of a new
master was far from agreeable to them. And if Mr. Gibson,
who had known the business all his life, had failed to make
it pay, was it likely, they asked, that a stranger, who, if
report said truly, had never tried paper-making before, was
likely to succeed?

But Philip Darnell knew what he was about; the men


soon saw that plainly enough. He had not purchased the
concern without shrewdly calculating ways and means, and
discerning how he could get good interest for his money.
Changes were made at the mill. The old foreman, sorely to
his mortification, was dismissed. Several of the old hands
followed him.

The management of the mill was given to a man who


came from London, and brought several workmen with him.
A new method of paper-making was adopted; and if the
paper was not so good as formerly, it was produced at less
cost, and found a readier market. Wages were cut down,
and economy exercised in every direction. Some of the
work-people refused to take the lower wage, and moved
away from Rayleigh, in the hope of finding better-paid work
elsewhere; but the majority were of opinion that a "bird in
the hand is worth two in the bush," and preferred to earn
what they could at Rayleigh rather than risk coming to
destitution in a strange place. But the change was bitter to
them, and they regarded the new master with little favour.

But Philip Darnell cared not what might be the feelings


cherished towards him by those whom he employed. To
him, they were merely the "hands," human machines, out
of which he was determined to grind as much work as
possible, at the greatest profit to himself. He came with his
wife and children to spend the summer at Rayleigh, and
they took possession of the Mill House, as it was called,
living there in a far more extravagant and showy style than
the Gibsons had adopted.

Mrs. Darnell, magnificently attired, drove about in a


handsome landau, drawn by a pair of spirited bays. She
expected the men to touch their hats when they saw her,
and the women to drop a humble curtsey; but she made no
effort to enter into friendly relations with them. She would
as soon have thought of going to work at the mill as of
visiting the wives and mothers in their homes, as Mrs.
Gibson had been wont to do. The grand lady in her carriage
saw them separated from her by a wide chasm of social
inequality, across which no sense of a common womanhood
could draw her.

And the people were quick to feel that they were looked
down upon, and to resent the fact. As the months passed
on, the spirit of discontent deepened and spread. But the
mill prospered, and Philip Darnell was pleased with the
success of his new enterprise. He was making money by the
business, and that was all he desired. He had no idea of any
higher success than that of doing well to himself; no sense
of any responsibility for the well-being of those who worked
for him.
Another winter came, and another. There was little
outward change at Rayleigh; but quietly, yet surely, the
feeling of ill-will between employer and employed was
growing stronger, and taking deeper root. Philip Darnell had
no consciousness of anything being wrong; he had never
felt more prosperous and confident, nor more insolently
disdainful of every one who tried to check the working of his
will.

Sebastian Mouncey came in for a large share of


contempt, because he would now and again intercede for
some dismissed workman, or try in one way or another to
make the mill-owner feel for his "hands" as men. It was in
vain he made appeal for any sort of charity to Philip Darnell.
He had no sympathy with the clergyman in his schemes for
the benefit of his poor brothers and sisters; nor, though
once on a Sunday his carriage—the distance was barely half
a mile—carried him and his wife to the church door, had he
any real belief in the truths the vicar endeavoured to teach.

Nearly three years had passed since Gus came to


Rayleigh. He was "little Gus" no longer; but a strong, well-
grown lad for his years. He had passed the highest standard
at the village school, and had turned to good account his
private lessons with the vicar.

Mr. Mouncey began to deliberate seriously concerning


his future. He thought him no ordinary lad, and would have
liked him to have further educational advantages. He tried
to interest Colonel Carruthers, whom he still saw from time
to time, whenever he had occasion to visit London, in the
subject of Gus' future. But to his disappointment, the
colonel hardly cared to listen to anything he could say about
Gus.
"Nonsense, Mouncey!" he said once, speaking good-
humouredly, but in a decided manner. "That lad has
bewitched you. There is really nothing exceptional about
him. He is a clever young rogue, I daresay; but in my
opinion, you'll make a great mistake if you overeducate
him, and try to lift him out of his true position. Can't you
find him work at Rayleigh? Keep him there if you can, under
your own eye, and don't send him up to London."

Unfortunately Edith Durrant was not present to take up


Gus' cause. Her parents had lately returned from India, and
she had left her grandfather's home, and gone to reside
with them at Southampton. Mr. Mouncey knew that it was
vain to seek her aunt's sympathy on behalf of Gus. Miss
Durrant had never forgiven the boy for the fright he had
caused her by hiding himself in her bed. She continued to
regard him as a burglar in embryo. Had she been consulted
with regard to his future, she would probably have
suggested that, for the good of society, he should be kept in
close confinement for the rest of his life.

The vicar agreed with Colonel Carruthers in deeming it


undesirable that Gus should return to the neighbourhood of
London; but it was with a feeling of disappointment that he
set himself to find work for Gus at Rayleigh. He spoke to the
manager of the mill, and learned that he was in need of a
smart lad, able to write a good hand and keep accounts. He
was willing to take Gus into the counting-house, and try
what he could make of him; and the vicar, thinking Gus well
fitted for the post, gladly accepted it for him.

He fancied Gus would be pleased to hear of the


arrangement he had made; but when he told him the boy's
face flushed crimson, as if with pain, and for some moments
he said nothing. Was he to go into the service of Philip
Darnell? Was he to work for the man whom his father had
refused to serve, even when they were almost starving?
The idea was most repugnant to him.

"Why, Gus, you do not like the idea?" said Mr. Mouncey
in surprise. "I thought you would be glad to begin to earn
money for yourself."

"So I should be, sir," said Gus slowly, "but—" He


paused.

"There is something else you wish to be. Have you set


your heart on becoming a gardener?" said Mr. Mouncey,
remembering that Gus had of late shown much interest in
