<p>This module examines the structure of the European Communities and the European Union, following which there is an exploration of the competencies (powers and duties) of the institutions of the European Union.  Following a consideration of the nature of European Union (EU) law, and its different forms, the module will consider the circumstances in which EU law can be enforced in national courts and when damages may be payable by a Member State to a person/company which has suffered loss because of the Member State’s breach of EU law.  Students will then learn the substantive law of the Community: the free movement of goods, workers and services, and the freedom of establishment.</p>
