A seminar by Professor Maurice Sunkin, University of Essex and Varda Bondy Research Director, Public Law Project

Professor Maurice Sunkin, University of Essex and Varda Bondy, Research Director, Public Law Project will speak on the topic of "Assessing the effects of Judicial Review: Realities and Myths".

Date    :  Thursday 23rd May 2013

Time    :  5:30pm

Venue  :  Moot Court Room, Faculty of Law

The University of Essex and the Public Law Project are currently engaged in a Nuffield funded project exploring the value and effects of judicial review in England and Wales. Given current discussions, including calls by the government to reform judicial review and legal aid relating to judicial review proceedings, gaining an independent empirically based understanding of the role and effects of judicial review has rarely, if ever, been more important. In this presentation we shall place the current research in the context of proposed reforms and discuss some of the emerging findings of research. The presentation will be of work in progress at this stage.
