elaw newsletter

 

elaw is our digital journal and newsletter. It is sent out to all members via email every 2 months.

 elaw aims to keep our members up to date on UKELA news and events, and informed about new law, hot topics and matters in practice. It also publishes themed articles with views on how we can develop environmental law for a better environment. We invite submissions for consideration for publication. If you would like to submit an article, please send it to the editor [email protected]. Please read our style guide first.
