Report

A very useful overview of the legislative responsibilities within the UK. There is a wording glitsch on bullet 1, slide 6 wherein it should say that EU law prevails, but the explanation of the issue of sovereignty is very clear. Students might wish to take their preparations to the next stage by further developing their knowledge of case studies with which to address assessment objective 2, (evaluation and analysis).
