Post-legislative scrutiny (PLS) is the practice of monitoring the implementation and evaluating the impact of laws. The aim is to ensure that laws benefit citizens in the way originally intended by lawmakers.

For the first of our PLS Community of Practice events we want to set out what exactly a community of practice is and how you can be involved.

We will be discussing some common experiences in PLS, achievements in piloting and challenges and bottlenecks. We will be joined by representatives from, among others, the Parliaments of Wales and Scotland, who will be giving us the current PLS state of play in their parliaments.

It will be an opportunity to share and discuss.
