Subordinate Legislation: statutory instruments, by-laws and orders in Council

Controlled by consultation, publication and supervised by Parliament.
Common but criticised due to lack of democratic involvement, hard to challenge and the sheer volume of law made this way

Common Law

Judges look at facts and apply the law to the facts. The latter makes case law. Sets judicial precedence.
Courts lower down in the hierarchy are bound by Higher Court decisions, eg. House of Lords

Statutory Interpretation
-
Courts deduce Parliaments intentions and put it into practice (Parliament remains the supreme law making authority)
