This new edition of "Constitutional Reform" examines central government, Parliament and the judiciary in Britain and proposes an agenda for reform. The stress remains on suggestions which might stand a fair chance of being implemented. Topics covered include the limitations on the scope for constitutional reform; new methodology for constitutional change; parliamentary democracy and voting reform; the second chamber; the reduction of ministerial power; the transfer of certain royal powers to Parliament; and the reform of the judiciary. Also including a new chapter on the Labour Government's plans for the British constitution, this book provides the reader with comprehensive coverage of constitutional change in Britain at the new millennium. The text is intended for undergraduate students of law, politics and government studying constitutional law and administrative law, politicians, political journalists, and political correspondents, and anyone with an interest in current issues concerning British constitutional reform.
