Publisher's Synopsis
"Constitutional Texts" is a companion volume to the author's "Constitutional Practice", and provides the text of materials which help to describe and explain the current working of British central government. Students of the British constitution must read in the disciplines of politics, government and public administration, but finding apt, easily accessible materials is not always easy.;"Constitutional Texts" brings together such disparate materials as reports of departmental and parliamentary committees, Royal Commissions, cabinet papers, standing orders of both Houses and numerous extracts from Hansard. Also included are extracts from political histories, memoirs and autobiographies, as well as many statutory passages. Connecting commentary provides explanation and discussion where applicable.
