The Executive in the Constitution

At a time when major constitutional change is in the air, it is vital that we understand the inner working of the executive Government. Opening up territory long neglected by constitutional and legal scholars, this book highlights major recent changes in the way government organizes itself and controls the action of its Departments. It shows how public service reforms, judicial review, and European law are changing not just the inner life of the executive Government, but its place in our constitution as well.
