A useful news site is provided by Daniel Barnett. This is mostly concerned with recent cases but also provides information on recent legislation, consultation documents and draft statutory instruments. This requires registration but not a subscription. See www.danielbarnett.co.uk

There are also a number of subscription only sites which provide up to date versions of statutes and SIs. These include LexisNexis, Westlaw and LawTel which are often available through university libraries.
