点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

A key objective of devolution was to develop 'Scottish solutions to Scottish problems'. This research will examine the tension between the need to legislate locally for Scotland and the need for the UK to comply with European Community (Community) Law. The research will explore the division of power between the Scottish and UK Institutions in practice by examining the extent to which Community environmental law is being implemented in different ways in Scotland and in England and Wales post-devolution. These differences relate to legislative form, timing and content, including the extent to which Community requirements are fully met or exceeded.
