CLASSIFICATION OF LAW IN GREAT BRITAIN

There are two main branches of the law -criminal and civil. Criminal law is concerned with acts contrary to the order, peace and security of society which are punishable by the State. Civil law is concerned with disputes between individuals about their rights, duties and obligations. It also covers dealings between individuals and companies and between one company and another. Contract law, for example, is essential to trade between companies and the smooth running of the market economy.

Various government committees are responsible for reviewing the law and making recommendations for its simplification and modernisation. Any changes resulting from this activity are made by legislation.
