Statutory Nuisance,2nd edition,is the essential guide to this complex,but vital,area of law.It is clear,readable,user friendly and provides in one volume not only lucid explanation and practical guidance but also the primary materials needed in court.
This book is an invaluable aid for lawyers,environmental health officers,community groups,commercial enterprises and individual citizens.It takes them from initial assessment of a potential nuisance,through document drafting to the magistrates'court and beyond to the higher courts.Accessible to the layman,yet illuminating to the experienced practitioner, this title expresses a view on the issues not yet resolved by the courts.
The first edition has been widely cited,for example by the house of lords in Farley v skinner and R v rimmington.This new fully revised 2nd edition covers both recent cases and new legislation such as the clean neighbourhoods and environment act 2005,and the environmental information regulations 2004.It also assesses the effect in practice of the Human Rights Act 1998.
