Morley on Sheridan, Open Legislative Data, and Legislation.gov.uk

Video of Oliver Morley’s presentation last month at the Sprint 13 conference, concerning open data at The National Archives, including Legislation.gov.uk, is available.

This clip starts at the discussion of Legislation.gov.uk, the UK open legislation platform. The discussion covers John Sheridan‘s innovative work developing Legislation.gov.uk according to principles of open Linked Data, the new project to update the UK statute book by means of expert participation, a new platform that will allow UK Government personnel to edit legislation, and new tools that produce visualizations of the quantities of UK and EU statutes and regulations.
