OverviewOverview• Law-Making Environment
– Tools for the “Legislator” based on semantic models;
• Model of Provisions and Arguments;
• Software architecture of a module for Planning a new bill;
• Conclusions.
Legislation management:Legislation management:State of the ArtState of the Art
• Upkeep of current legislation through URN and XML standards;
• This guarantees:– Web accessibility of new and legacy contents;– Interoperability among applications;– Advanced search and retrieval services based on semantics;– Automatic consolidation;
• The most part of tools dealing with standards for legislation are addressed to documentalists rather than to the Legislator;
PurposesPurposes• Providing the Law-Maker with a set of drafting
tools allowing to plan organic and well structure bills;
• Strategy:– Ex-ante (Lachmayer) management of the semantics;
• Benefits:– planning a new organic bill from a conceptual (semantic) point of
view;– Metadata are directly inserted by the Legislator
• they will be “authentic” metadata;
Semantic ModelSemantic Model
• Model of Provisions and Arguments:– Amendments (Insertion, Abrogation, Substitution);
• The NIR standards describe a legislative text under two profiles:
– the formal profile:• It considers a law text as made up of divisions;• It describes the physical structure of a document;
– the functional profile:• It considers a normative text as composed by elementary
components called provisions (fragment of a regulation);• It is described by provisions types and their arguments;• It describes the logical structure of a document.
