The impact of EC environmental law in the United Kingdom: Yet the implementation of these policies at the national level remains problematic. 'The impact of EC environmental law in the United Kingdom' addresses these issues from the perspective of the UK. European and environmental law writers recognise that to assess the effectiveness of national implementation, environmental policies must be placed in the wider context of the aims of the European Union as a whole. The book is divided into six parts: Part I provides the framework with a study of the development and current state of EC environmental law; Part II looks at the impact on UK environmental law and policy of subsidiarity, precaution and proportionality; Parts III, IV and V each take a specific area of environmental practice and assess them in detail - pollution control, nature conservation and land use, including impact assessment; Part VI recognises that environmental policy cannot operate in isolation and discusses the conflicts that can arise with other EC policies such as the free movement of goods and development policy.
