Description
This administrative law sourcebook, which can be used as a companion to Wade's "Administrative Law" (the leading text in the field), has been designed to cater for Administrative Law courses in which judicial control of the administration forms a central core. In order to illustrate the general principles of administrative law, the authors have selected material which they consider useful in evaluating doctrines imposed by the courts, suggestions for reforms, the relative utility of judicial review and other methods of control. This new edition has been revised to take into account the large number of new cases decided and new statutes enacted since the first edition appeared. In particular, more space is devoted to the New Procedural System, Remedies and Discretionary Powers.
