We were about to pack up the office PC and spend the rest of the weekend relaxing when we were alerted to an exercise in Parliamentary scrutiny which .. Well, the word “arcane” sprang to mind. But perhaps this reflects badly on our need to brush up on some aspects of the legislative process.

The report explains that Parliament – the supreme law maker – has full power to make laws.
