Introduction to the Public Law of Scotland

""This book meets the long-standing need for a comprehensive account of the public law of Scotland. Although dealing with the main elements of the United Kingdom constitution, a substantial proportion of the book is concerned with individual freedom and the legality of government action, where the law of Scotland is distinctive. It also seeks to integrate European matters into the study of the constitution.Scots Public Law concentrates on the processes of the constitution through which government is conducted and held accountable, and through which laws are made.Of particular value to those studying and practising law and administration, this book will also be of interest to all those who require a clear and up-to-date account of Scots public law.Previously a T & T Clarke publication.""
