Environmental Judicial Review and Public Law

Judicial review has increasingly been used as a weapon by environmental pressure groups and individuals to challenge matters such as the non-enforcement of environmental controls, and is also prone to use by commercial entities seeking to challenge over-zealous environmental regulation. This book has been designed to address this issue. It encompasses both judicial review procedure and public law principles, and applies them directly to substantive environmental law. The text considers the scope and nature of environmental public law; discusses the public law procedures involved in resolving environmental public law issues; and provides practical help in mounting an environmental judicial review challenge.
