520			_aFundamental changes are being woven into the fabric of British constitutional and administrative Law. E.E.C. accession, devolution and a greater emphasis on individual freedoms and duties have all contributed notably to this state of flux. Such developments are fully accounted for in the latest edition of this standard work, now written in collaboration with Professor Jackson. A host of key topics is dealt with, reference always being made to a stimulating variety of further reading. Many cases and statutes have been added for the new edition, while several White Papers, commission and committee reports are considered. Two chapters are new, looking respectively at the United Kingdom and the European Communities and rights and duties generally. Direct elections to the European Assembly are considered in Chapter 5. Chapter 23 analyses the European Convention on Human Rights before weighing up the debate on enactment of a U.K. Bill of Rights. A section is inserted here, too, on anti-discrimination legislation. Europe also features in Chapter 4, where a revised view of self-limitation is advanced centring upon the relationship between the British Constitution and Community law. Devolution is carefully treated in an appendix. The proposals for Scotland and Wales are explained in turn and the English position is not neglected. Numerous other matters are re-examined, in the light of recent events, including collective responsibility of Ministers, Government defeats in the Commons, prospects for the second chamber, the voting system and reform of remedies in administrative law. A separate Part is devoted to the Commonwealth.
