Thornton's Legislative Drafting remains the leading professional title that legislative drafters internationally use for guidance when drafting new legislation or amending existing legislation.

New material for the fifth edition includes:-

  • An introductory chapter to explain the philosophy of the new edition stressing that the approach remains the same but that the book has been updated;
  • A new chapter on comparative legislative drafting;
  • A new chapter on gender neutral drafting;
  • A new chapter on the implementation of international agreements;
  • A new chapter covering current debates, topics and developments in legislative drafting.
