I have a legislative drafting practice for legislation in the UK and abroad.

I drafted legislation (including primary and subordinate government legislation, private Members’ Bills, and amendments to Government Bills) for a range of public bodies and third sector organisations in the UK and abroad. I still undertake some limited drafting activities.

I lectured on statutory interpretation and legislative drafting for the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies in the University of London, for the Civil Service Training College, for DODS Training and for others. My training activities included training legislative drafters, civil servants, public authorities and legislators in the UK and abroad.

My most important publishing activities are Craies on Legislation, Stroud’s Judicial Dictionary and Jowitt’s Dictionary of English Law. I am also General Editor of Westlaw UK Annotated Statutes and Topics Encyclopaedia, and the Editor-in-Chief of OUP’s Statute Law Review. My other published books and articles are listed elsewhere on this site.
