This thesis sits at the intersection between political science and history. There is a rich political science scholarship exploring the British legislative process and assessing parliament's scrutiny capacity.In particular, the legislative studies literature has produced a parliamentary decline thesis and a wealth of research into the effectiveness of committees, parliamentary debates and question times. What this thesis aims to do is contribute a historical context and depth to this extensive political science research. This thesis follows developments in legislative processes-for example, the committee systems or standing orders-in post-war, post-imperial Britain until that transformational constitutional moment that was devolution in 1997. The research will observe both the procedural changes and how they have affected scrutiny capacity. All the while, this thesis will take a broader view of how these developments haveaffected not just domestic policy, but Britain's standing globally. This thesis also contributes new insights to constitutional studies and federalism literature where it aims to focus on issues that have faced parliament concerning the UK union. As such, this thesis has three broad objectives:To historicise the British legislative process and contextualise the political science literatureTo understand how the development of this legislative process has had an impact on both domestic decision-making and the geopolitics of Britain in the world. To offer insights, more specifically, into how the development of parliamentary processes has influenced the way the UK is governed as a union of four nations.Such objectives allow for a wide berth in terms of what avenues can be explored and more limited and specific foci can be directed by the wealth of source material.
