Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the various ways in which modern approaches to the protection of national security have impacted upon the constitutional order of the United Kingdom. It outlines and assesses the constitutional significance of the three primary elements of the United Kingdom's response to the possibility of terrorism and other phenomena that threaten the security of the state: the body of counter-terrorism legislation that has grown up in the last decade and a half; the evolving law of investigatory powers; and, to the extent relevant to the domestic constitution, the law and practice governing international military action and co-operation. Following on from this, the author demonstrates that considerations of national security – as a good to be protected and promoted in contemporary Britain – are reflected not merely in the existence of discrete bodies of law by which it is protected at home and abroad, but simultaneously and increasingly leaked into other areas of public law. Elements of the constitution which are not directly and inherently linked to national security nevertheless become (by both accident and design) implicated in the state's national security endeavours, with significant and at times far-reaching consequences for the constitutional order generally. A renewed and strengthened concern for national security since September 2001 has, it is argued, dragged into its orbit a variety of constitutional phenomena and altered them in its image, giving rise to what we might call a national security constitution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Labour government first elected in 1997 had a defining influence on the development of the modern UK constitution. This book combines legal and political perspectives to provide a unique assessment of the way in which this major programme of constitutional reform has changed the nature of the UK constitution. The chapters, written by leading experts in UK public law and politics, analyse the impact and legacy of the New Labour reform programme some 20 years on from the 1997 general election, and reveal the ways in which the UK constitution is now, to a significant extent, the 'New Labour constitution'. The book takes a broad approach to exploring the legacy of the New Labour years for the UK constitution. The contributors evaluate a range of specific substantive reforms (including on human rights, devolution, freedom of information, and the judicial system), changes to the process and method of constitutional reform under New Labour, the impact on key institutions (such as the judiciary and Parliament), and a number of wider constitutional themes (including national security, administrative justice, and the relationship between the Labour Party and constitutionalism). The book also reflects on the future challenges for the constitution constructed by New Labour, and the prospects for further constitutional reform. In bringing together this range of perspectives to reflect on the implications of the New Labour era of reform, this book offers a critical examination of a foundational period in the development of the contemporary UK constitution.

The Committee's report (HCP 876-I, ISBN 0104130024) was generally supportive of the broad purposes of the draft Bill, but made 148 recommendations under the broad headings of: the framework for the new regulator, OFCOM; economic regulation; media ownership; content regulation. The media ownership elements had attracted much advance attention, and the Committee recommended that restrictions on non-European Economic Area ownership of broadcasting licences should not take place until after a review by OFCOM.

Book excerpt: The draft Communications Bill proposes that OFCOM (the Office of Communications) should take over the regulation of all forms of broadcasting and telecommunications, including access to the internet, currently exercised by a number of other bodies. This report considers the human rights implications of the draft Bill, including privacy issues in the regulation of electronic communications such as emails; and the right to freedom of expression by broadcasters. Although in general, the Committee finds that most provisions of the draft are unlikely to impact upon human rights, their report does draw attention to certain aspects which need revision in order to provide adequate safeguards
