6. In the Global paper could you clarify the level of detail required of Sharia law?
We have shifted the content of Sharia law – it is used as an exemplar along with common law and civil law and we have reduced them in the new syllabus. Previously candidates were required to explain the operation of the systems but now they are only required to know an outline – this is more a general background and an understanding of the syllabus. Now there is more focus on the international institutions that generate international codes.

4. In relation to the Human Rights Act is interpretation examinable?
Candidates need to know section 3 in relation to interpretation. There would not be a question about the declaration of incompatibility but it may arise on other questions in relation to substantive areas of law. It would be part of the general area of law – it would not be examined separately.
