As a critical, in-depth analysis of the law-making process, this
book has no equal. It deals with all the stages and forms of
law-making: - the preparation of legislation; - its passage through
Parliament; - statutory interpretation; - the operation of the
rules of precedent in judicial decision-making; - the many facets
of judicial law-making; - the machinery of law reform. The new
eighth edition covers the operation of EU law in the UK after
Brexit. It also covers pre-Brexit events such as the unprecedented
legislation by backbench MPs to stop a No Deal Exit from the EU and
the two great Supreme Court decisions over the triggering of Brexit
and the prorogation of Parliament. The books draws on a wide range
of sources including important new empirical research such as Lord
Sumption's 2019 Reith lectures (Trials of the State - Law and the
Decline of Politics) and the work of Sir Geoffrey Palmer, former
Prime Minister and Justice Minister of New Zealand on The Law
Reform Enterprise. There are new sections on the attempt to control
the size of the House of Lords, on whether Parliament should have a
role in the selection of senior judges and on the topical question
whether decisions of the courts on constitutional questions are
'legal' or 'political'.
