On Thursday 28 November 2024, The City Law School hosted its annual Institute for the Study of European Law (ISEL) Winter Lecture. This time round it was entitled, "The evolving jurisdiction of the General Court of the EU."
ISEL is a leading centre for research and teaching on European law and policy based at the City Law School, and its Winter Lecture is an opportunity for the school's students to hear from world-renowned experts in the field.
Highlights from the Winter Lecture
Organised by Professor Elaine Fahey, the 2024 ISEL Winter Lecture keynote speech was delivered by Judge Damjan Kukovec of the EU General Court.
The lecture provided an invaluable opportunity to examine one of the most significant changes in the EU judicial system in decades - namely the recent amendment to the Protocol of the European Court of Justice , which empowers the EU General Court to hear preliminary references by national courts in several specific fields, including customs law, VAT and passengers rights for the first time.
