Synopsis

The fifth edition of Hilaire Barnett's Constitutional Administrative Law is published at a time of continuing constitutional development and reform. Membership of the European Union has expanded from fifteen to twenty-five states. House of Lords reform is ongoing, now with plans to abolish the office of Lord Chancellor, establish a new Supreme Court and introduce a new system of judicial appointments. Other significant areas of reform discussed in the book include the police and police powers, asylum and immigration law. Constitutional Administrative Law provides a clear exposition of the major features of the UK's constitution and a comprehensive summary of recent developments. The book has been consciously designed to meet the needs of students undertaking a constitutional and administrative law course, whether full or part time, and provides comprehensive coverage of the syllabus drawn from a wide range of sources.

Media Reviews
Praise for previous editions; Great care is taken by Barnett to try and painstakingly explain the difficult concepts of constitutional law in language which, although not simple, is straightforward...the author is obviously well-informed about her subject, very quotable for examination question purposes. The Law Teacher, Richard Clements, University of the West of England. 'This is a vast topic but this book assists the student quite considerably to make it understandable and, in many cases, quite enjoyable.' The Legal Executive Journal.
