On 16 September 2010 the Committee launched an inquiry into Mapping the path to codifying - or not codifying - the UK's Constitution. So far the Committee has held four evidence sessions. Two considered examples of major constitutional changes that have taken place or are about to take place in Ireland, Iceland, Hungary and New Zealand.
A third evidence session was held in December 2011 with a panel of witnesses who have experience in drafting constitutions for the UK, and an academic with extensive knowledge of the constitution in the UK and European Union. The fourth evidence session in January 2012 examined the historical context of the UK’s constitution.
Further evidence sessions will be announced in due course.
