Elsewhere on the ‘Net: UCL Constitution Unit Newsletter Monitor 47

The Constitution Unit of University College, London, publishes a periodic short newsletter summarising major constitutional issues in the UK.  Their latest one is here.

This issue touches on:

• Government defeats in the Lords;
• The reckless (and unnecessary) speed of the government’s constitutional reform program;
• The progress of the Fixed Term Parliaments Bill and the PVS&C Bill;
• Difficulties with the European Union Bill;
• The new Cabinet Manual;
• Meg Russell’s proposed moratorium on Lords appointments;
• The run-up to the Welsh Devolution referendum;
• The Oldham East & Saddleworth by-election;
• Parliamentary Privilege;
• Constitutional issues in other devolved parts of the UK.

Feel free to read at your leisure, it’s fascinating!
