Parliamentary Review of the Coronavirus Act 2020:
Scrutiny Delayed, or Scrutiny Denied?
We are delighted to announce a Webinar in collaboration with the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law on the upcoming six-month review of the Coronavirus Act 2020, taking place on Thursday 14 October 2021, 13.00 – 14.00.
The speakers in the seminar will discuss the six-month review process built into the Coronavirus Act 2020. They will reflect on how the reviews have operated so far, and on their effectiveness for holding the Government to account for the operation of powers under the Coronavirus Act 2020. The speakers will then look ahead to the upcoming six-month review, due to take place this month, which will be the last before the Act either expires or the Government seeks to place the relevant powers on extended statutory footing.
The speakers:
- Professor Fiona de Londras, Principal Investigator, COVID-19 Review Observatory (CVRO)
- Katie Lines, Research Fellow in Rule of Law Monitoring of Coronavirus Legislation at the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law
Daniella Lock, Research Fellow at CVRO will be chairing the event.
