The Brexit Parliament: Evaluating the Role of Parliament in the Brexit Context

den 22 september 2017, kl. 12:00

At the start of the Brexit process, the role of the UK Parliament in triggering Article 50 TEU was heavily and very publicly contested. Since the UK Supreme Court's judgment in Miller confirmed Parliament's role in this regard, concern has shifted to the extent to which Parliament can influence the nature of Brexit.

This seminar considers the influence the UK Parliament is exerting and the challenges it is facing in doing so. A particular focus is placed on the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill (so-called 'Great Repeal Bill' currently before Parliament) and the work of parliamentary Select Committees.

Dr Noreen O’Meara is a Lecturer in European Law and Human Rights Law at the University of Surrey, UK. She read law at the University of Cambridge (Corpus Christi College), UCL (LLM Public Law), and Queen Mary, University of London (PhD European Law). Her research focuses on interfaces between national law and EU/ECHR law, with current projects examining the impact of Brexit in the UK. Noreen is a visiting fellow, contributing to the teaching of the Masters in European Economic Law programme at the Faculty of Law, Stockholm University.
