Reviews

'This book contains a wide range of essays on legislation and its drafting. It is written in honour of the memory of Sir William Dale, who did much to encourage debate in this area. The book continues the debate in a stimulating manner. It is a fitting tribute to him.' Sir Geoffrey Bowman KCB QC, First Parliamentary Counsel, London, 2002-06 'This book, ranging widely and containing so many good things, is a worthy tribute to Sir William Dale and an important addition to the literature on legislation - and perhaps even on logistics.' Public Law
