Statute law has long since surpassed common law as the most prolific source of law. Statute can replace and amend common law; it can deal with subject matter far beyond the reach of common law; it is the instrument of government policy. It deserves study in its own right. We often neglect it.

This seminar concentrates on recent changes in statute law: in the way it is made; in the way it is drafted; in its format; in the way it is interpreted; and in the wider context in which it rests.
