This book covers the main topics of Constitutional and
Administrative Law courses and is intended to give students a clear
idea of what the examiners are looking for. This edition has been
comprehensively revised to take account of the radical programme of
constitutional reform introduced by the Labour government since
1997. It gives clear examples of how to answer questions on the
following topics: devolution; the Human Rights Act, including the
interpretation by the courts of its chief provisions and the Act's
on the key areas of police powers, public order law and freedom of
expression; the Freedom of Information Act 2000; the recent Shayler
litigation under the Official Secrets Act; plans for reform of the
House of Lords and the Wakeham Report, the government's White
Paper; and proposed reforms to the Ombudsmen system. Material on
recent reforms to the European Convention system and to domestic
judicial review is also included. It will be especially useful for
students who may be feeling bemused by the rapid rate of change in
this subject.
