Intention, Supremacy and the Theories of Judicial Review

Více o knize

The book presents a critical analysis of the ultra vires and common law theories, asserting that they inadequately explain the courts' judicial review jurisdiction. It introduces a more nuanced view of parliamentary supremacy, suggesting it is not absolute but operates flexibly, allowing courts to balance specific Acts of Parliament against other statutes or principles. This perspective leads to a novel theory of judicial review that diverges significantly from traditional understandings, offering a fresh approach to the relationship between legislative authority and judicial oversight.
