The aim of this course is two-fold. First of all, it is intended to help lawyers who have never had the opportunity to study EU law or who need to revise and update their knowledge on EU law. Secondly it is intended to help the practitioner research EU law better. The course covers only the institutional and administrative part of the EU legal order and as a result it is of interest to all practicing lawyers irrespective of their field of practice or specialisation. The course is compact and requires the audience to do further reading on their own about the matter as directed during the course.
The course is divided into 9 sessions of 2 hrs each.
Session 1: Introduction to the EU legal order
Session 2: The Institutions, Instruments and Competence.
Session 3: Legislation and Policy-Making
Session 4: The nature and effect of EC law: Direct Effect and beyond
Session 5: Preliminary reference
Session 6a): The application of national remedies in national courts
Session 6b): Enforcement actions
Session 7: Review of Legality: Access
Session 8: Grounds of Review and Human Rights
