Constitutional and Administrative Law and EU Law

Constitutional and Administrative Law and EU Law is a systematic, up-to-date and accessible review of the fundamental principles of the UK constitution, including the impact of Brexit. It also covers key areas of practice such as judicial review and public order. 

The new editions of The University of Law SQE1 manuals have been revised to bring the law and procedure up to date as at 1 April 2023 (titles with tax elements to 30 April 2023) and incorporate changes in the SQE1 assessment specification. These updated versions, together with our periodic updating service, will make sure your knowledge of the SRA’s SQE1 syllabus is ‘exam ready’.

Our practice assessment questions, embedded throughout the manuals, which are in the style of the Single Best Answer Questions which make up the SQE1 assessments, have also been reviewed and updated.

About the author: Trevor Tayleur is a retired Associate Professor at The University of Law in Moorgate, London. Prior to joining the university, he worked as a solicitor in private practice and The Church Commissioners for England.

This book is part of a series of 15 study manuals that have been specially designed to cover the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) syllabus for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE1) in a concise and tightly focused manner. 

Published and updated regularly, these user-friendly study manuals are designed to help you successfully prepare for the SQE1 exams. 

They provide solid knowledge and understanding of fundamental legal principles and rules, while bringing the law and practice to life with example scenarios based on realistic client problems.

Each title is complemented by worked examples and sample assessment questions that enable you to test your knowledge and understanding through single best answer questions that have been modelled on the SRA’s sample assessment questions.

For students at The University of Law, the study manuals are used alongside other learning resources and the University’s assessment bank to prepare students not only for the SQE1 exams, but also for a future life in professional legal practice. 

The legal principles and rules contained within this study manual are stated as at 1 April 2023 (titles with tax elements to 30 April 2023).
