Every now and then a case is reported that succeeds both in providing examples of A-level law concepts and encouraging an analysis of the law in context. R (Reilly and Wilson) v Secretary of State for Work and Pensions (2012) is one such example.

R (Reilly and Wilson) focused on the back-to-work schemes being offered by Job Centres to unemployed people. These schemes arose from a piece of primary legislation (the Jobseekers Act 1995) and delegated legislation created under this Act by the secretary of state for work and pensions, entitled the Jobseeker’s Allowance (Employment, Skills and Enterprise Scheme) Regulations 2011.
