In this article the author shall be considering the arrangements in parliamentary systems for the scrutiny of bills and draft bills against a range of broadly constitutional criteria. She considers in particular whether or in what conditions it is possible for executives or chambers of Parliament to engage in constitutional scrutiny effectively.
