Scotland's Constitution: Law and Practice

Scotland's Constitution: Law and Practice, Fifth Edition is a clear, comprehensive account of Scottish constitutional law within its UK and (continuing) European context. It describes and analyses constitutional arrangements while integrating that analysis with a general background to constitutional law and the UK institutions which have relevance for the government of Scotland.

This highly regarded text considers law-making powers for Scotland, the legislative process at Westminster and at Holyrood, the accountability and scrutiny of government, the independence of the judiciary and the role of the courts in interpreting and adjudicating upon constitutional and administrative law questions.

The Fifth Edition has been fully updated throughout and includes:

- Coverage of new case law since the last edition including the Supreme Court's rulings that the Scottish Parliament does not have the power to authorise an independence referendum and on challenges brought to Scottish legislation by the UK Government
- Streamlined material on Scotland's constitutional history
- New material on children's rights and equalities law

This text provides an essential introduction to constitutional law for law students and for others with a general interest in the subject.

This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Scottish Law and Scots Law Student online services.
