Publisher's Summary:
This third edition has been extensively re-written in order to consider the impact of the Human Rights Act 1998. It takes extensive account not only of the Strasbourg jurisprudence, but also of a number of key domestic decisions in the post- Human Rights Act era. Particular attention is paid to Labour legislation including the Terrorism Act 2000, the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, the Data Protection Act 1998, the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001. brbrThis book is a detailed, thought- provoking and comprehensive text that is valuable not only for students but also for all those interested in the development of civil liberties in the Human Rights Act era.
