Legal Publications

See also: Legal publications

As of 1979, there was a severe shortage of textbooks and of works of authority, such as annotated statutes, law reports and rules of court, because the potential readership of any legal work, no matter how general, was so small that publication was not commercially viable. The only periodical dealing with the law of Northern Ireland was the Northern Ireland Legal Quarterly.

See also the Northern Ireland Law Reports (NILR) and the Northern Ireland Statutes Revised.
