Overview
Key facts
Interpretation is ultimately a judgemental exercise, but the judgement needs to be made in accordance with the rule of law, and that means it must be made with an understanding of the principles of statutory interpretation. This course will explain what those principles are and how they're applied in practice.
Each seminar will concentrate on a small number of cases to help you understand how the principles of statutory interpretation work in practice. You'll be encouraged to engage in a discussion of the rights and wrongs of the cases.
University College London (UCL) offers the Interpreting Statutes and Regulations in Legal Practice programme.
