About The Book
Endorsements
‘Since full legislative devolution in 2011, it becomes increasingly important that the developing law for Wales be analysed authoritatively in its proper historic constitutional context. This excellent book is a vital contribution to that process of learning and education, and I congratulate all who have contributed to its preparation.’
-Theodore Huckle QC, Counsel General for Wales 2011–16
‘Pioneering and authoritative, this is a landmark title on the challenges and opportunities of administrative justice in conditions of small country governance. In bringing together local and comparative perspectives in this edited collection, Sarah Nason places Wales firmly in the mainstream of contemporary legal discussion.’
-Professor Richard Rawlings, University College London
