Project description: During the pandemic, the UK awarded numerous public contracts to large companies exceeding 拢30.2 billion, via emergency procurement decisions. In the same period many SMEs, including those in Wales, seemingly lost out on these opportunities. Immediate analysis as to the reasons for this is required, particularly given Wales is disproportionately reliant on SMEs to sustain its economy. We will investigate the impact of Welsh public bodies' emergency procurement decision-making on SMEs' ability to achieve sustainability.

Understanding the Experiences of Legal Education Facilitators and Learners During a Pandemic: Are We All in This Together?
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about the most seismic changes to the delivery of education in modern times, including in Universities. It is on the premise of this disruption to higher Legal Education that the authors set out to empirically investigate the experiences of both facilitators (law teaching staff) and learners (law students).
In light of the inability of Universities to offer a traditional classroom teaching environment, legal scholars had to adapt both their materials, and delivery and assessment methods swiftly to meet learners鈥 needs during the pandemic. Further, both those who teach, as well as those who learn, have had to overcome new personal complexities and pastoral wellbeing challenges as we all adjusted to new homeworking environments and hybrid learning delivery methods.
The purpose of this paper is to start to map the experiences of both lecturers and students. In doing so the research identifies trends and shared experiences amongst respondents.
This presentation starts to develops a new body of knowledge around efficient teaching and learning practices that legal education facilitators can deploy in future situations of disrupted (non-traditional) delivery.
Whilst such presents the result of our pilot study, going forward this research will map experiences across Wales in 2020/2021. In doing so such will help other facilitators reflect upon future learning practices when administering learning outside of traditional teaching practices. This is in order to better respond to the shared needs of our Law School communities, whilst further promoting excellence in legal education during times of crises.

Gweithgaredd: Cymryd rhan mewn cynhadledd Academaidd (Siaradwr)The challenges and disruption surrounding the delivery of Public Law modules were omnipresent prior to the pandemic crisis, and have only exasperated ever since. In 2019, proposals for significant constitutional change post-Brexit, as well as reforming the House of Lords; alongside issues surrounding devolution and the future for the UK Union; and the future for the Human Rights Act 1998, were all making headline news and warranted reflecting in our delivery.
Just before the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, constitutional dilemmas arose surrounding Parliamentary Sovereignty, Separation of Powers, and the Rule of Law, alongside the Prerogative powers of the Crown; as well as the future for the UK-EU relationship post-Brexit.
The outbreak of the pandemic (which is of constitutional significance in and of its own right) has coincided with the official end of the Brexit transition period, as well as other constitutional dilemmas surrounding the powers of Government(s), the Ministerial Codes; an independent review of Judicial Review and the role of judges; as well as concerns over equality before the law under the Rule of Law (amongst others).
The cumulative effect of all of these constitutional changes and proposals for reform have left Public Law scholars in the challenging position of deciding how best to reflect such far-reaching disruptions in their modules and teaching.
This presentation maps different strategies that the author has experimented with over the course of the last two academic years (both pre- and during- lockdowns) in order to reflect the most recent constitutional developments within 鈥榗lassroom鈥 discussions.
To keep pace with such changes, we adopted
-鈥淟earn Before the Lecture Podcasts鈥
-鈥淧ublic Law in Action鈥 pre-class discussions, where we applied the principles we had learnt the week before to ministers鈥 Twitter Accounts and Headline news (in order to move beyond what I term 鈥淧ub Talk Public Law鈥)
-Toolkits- to help students digest blackletter law and apply such to contemporary develops
-Online Questionnaires and Interactive multi-media games
-Online discussion forums (with anonymous posting options)
-Twitter Hashtags and Youtube Channel (in order to help students identify authoritative/credible sources for information via their preferred channels or outlets)
Such reflects upon the benefits of utilising toolkit approaches for teaching the most challenging fundamental constitutional principles. Whilst also reflecting upon both facilitators鈥 and learners鈥 experiences of having interactive workshops for applying such knowledge to headline news via 鈥楶ublic Law in Action鈥 sessions and in-class quizzes.
