Ymchwil

My research background is in the governance of the European Union. I work at the interface of law and political science, as it applies to systems of multi-level governance. This includes the UK's own system of territorial governance, with its devolution of legislative competence to Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. A particular focus is on understading this constitutional order as we move from the framework provided by EU membership.

I have been funded by ESRC (Senior Fellowship under the UK in a Changing Europe initiative, 2015-2018, £174,990) for a research and engagement project on the impact of Brexit on devolved legislative powers. This project highlighted the issue of managing the exercise of lawmaking powers by the Parliaments and Governments of the UK, in the absence of the framework provided by EU internal market rules. I have hosted roundtables with officials on these matters, and co-authored reports including responses to the 2020 Internal Market Bill e.g. , UK Internal Market Bill , Devolution and the Union  which recommended a series of improvements to the Bill. The Report was cited in Parliamentary debate.

Along with my colleague Dan Wincott, i have also been funded by the Legal Education Foundation (2018 and 2020, total £302,653) to establish the Wales Civil Society Forum on Brexit which has supported over 40 organisations with roundtables and written guides, and has been an influential partner for Welsh Government, and for sister organisations across the UK.
