Trefnydd: Prof Dermot Cahill

European Union Law is a compulsory module in the LLB programme. The aim of this module is to enable students to state, apply and analyse the rules of the European Union law dealt with in the course accurately and relevantly, and to make assessments of that law and the scholarship pertaining thereto. It will enable the students to compare and contrast that law accurately and relevantly with the equivalent areas of any other legal system with which the student is familiar.

The module will provide the student with a comprehensive overview of the political institutions and law-making processes of the European Union and will include the European Court of Justice and the General Court, their its jurisdiction; the sources and general principles of the Law of the European Union; the relationship between the Law of the European Union and National Law, and the main substantive areas of the Law of the EU's Internal Market, namely the Four Freedoms of Free Movement of Goods, Services & Establishment, Customs Duties and Internal Taxation.
