The UK Cabinet Manual is the latest installment in a process of defining constitutional conventions in publicly available, official documents. But constitutional conventions are often indeterminate in nature and difficult to codify. The manual and similar documents are likely to have a significant impact upon conventions through influencing perceptions of them, and making their use in judicial review more likely. But they cannot unilaterally determine the nature of conventions. Any impact upon conventions is brought about through interaction with the wider political environment. The domination of the production of the Cabinet Manual and a number of similar documents by the UK executive is constitutionally problematic.
