| Summary |
The fifth edition of Administrative Law contains many new features. There has been extensive reorganization of the material covered to reflect changing patterns in Canadian administrative law and the greater explicit links in the jurisprudence between administrative law and constitutional law. The work now starts with a much more extensive overview section featuring the seminal judgment of the Supreme Court of Canada in Baker. The influence of this case and also the continuing output of the Supreme Court on the issue of standard of review have also resulted in much-changed chapters on substantive review, including the use and misuse of discretion. The procedural fairness chapters also reflect recent case law dealing with the intersection between the Charter and administrative law. As in previous editions, much of the work consists of authors' notes, comments, and analysis. While Administrative Law is primarily a teaching text, it is widely regarded by practitioners, judges, board members, counsel, and staff as an invaluable guide to this complex, important, and changing field of law |
