Principles of Public Law
From Uni Study Guides
Please read this:
- This study guide was based on subject LAWS1140 - Public Law which was discontinued in 2013. The subject has been renamed to LAWS1141 - Principles of Public Law, and has been expanded into a 6 units of credit course. As a result, we are still missing some components from the course. Please bear with us while we try and fill in the missing pieces and sort everything out, because it will take some time. The study guide below should still be able to cover about half of the course, although it might be harder to find the information because names of topics have changed.
WE STILL DON'T HAVE A WRITER FOR PUBLIC LAW. PLEASE CONTACT US IF YOU ARE INTERESTED
