Scottish Administrative Law Essentials is a clear and concise study and revision guide for students of the law in Scotland. It contains all of the essential information students need when preparing for exams and includes useful summary sections of essential facts and essential cases. An invaluable text which students can use to gain a quick understanding of a new subject, to help them through a course or as an aid to revision for exams. This book is also an excellent resource for those who need to refresh their knowledge of the subject.

Table of Cases, Table of Statutes and an Index are included.

Reviews

The text is clear, concise and intelligible. The points made are underlined by reference to relevant case law. A balance has also been struck in relation to the cases cited with examples being used from across the spectrum of administrative law and not, for instance, merely citing cases related to planning law. The authors satisfy their aim of offering a sound foundation for understanding Scottish administrative law.

This book is not only an ideal text for students who come new to the subject but also for a much wider audience. In this writer's view the book should be an essential element in an induction pack for MSPs and local councillors. Moreover, it ought to be an essential purchase for government (central and local) officials, those employed by other statutory bodies (such as SNH and SEPA) and those whose day-to-day business brings them into contact with government and other statutory bodies.
