Statutory Nuisance
Oxford University Press (Verlag)
9780198878322 (ISBN)
Now in its third edition, Statutory Nuisance: Law and Practice is the definitive text on the law and practice of statutory nuisance. The law of statutory nuisance has deep historical roots closely connected with local government. This book outlines the structural framework, the history and concept of statutory nuisance, and the organizational structure and powers of local and central government following the impact of devolution and Brexit. It examines the complex case law around public health law and common law nuisance and discusses other areas of law and practice that overlap with statutory nuisance.
Each of the statutory nuisances set out in Part III of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 are analysed, and practice-based chapters examine the regulatory and judicial context of statutory nuisance enforcement. Evidential issues and case preparation for court hearings are covered in detail, including prosecutions by victims and non-lawyers against alleged perpetrators. The book addresses procedural and evidential matters of relevance to lawyers, environmental health practitioners, and enforcement officers, identifying good practice and various potential pitfalls. It includes chapters on human rights, the use and enforcement of abatement notices, appeals, local authority prosecutions, and statutory defences.
This new edition addresses issues around planning permission, statutory authority, and other consents. The 'agent of change' principle and deeds of easement applicable to new housing developments are analysed. This edition also covers extensively: housing, licensing, anti-social behaviour provisions, and recent legislation on public nuisance and anti-social behaviour. An Appendix clearly sets out the key legislation referred to in this book.
