The set of UK statutory instruments up to February 2021 found on https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ have been uploaded as items to WD and PDFs to Commons. The data model below was drawn up some time prior to the load and probably does not reflect the current position.
Data model edit
Properties edit
| Header text | Header text | Header text |
|---|---|---|
| itemLabel | Standard title | Normally the SI title as as specified in clause 1 of the SI - e.g "Adoption and Children Act Register (Search and Inspection) Regulations 2017" [1], but with the possibility of variance eg, the SI implements some rules widely known by a shorter name |
| itemDescription | Year & "UK Statutory Instrument" | eg "2017 UK Statutory Instrument" (or other jurisdiction) |
| official name (P1448) | Standard title | Always SI title as as specified in clause 1 of the SI - e.g "Adoption and Children Act Register (Search and Inspection) Regulations 2017" [2] |
| legal citation of this text (P1031) | 2017 No. 978 1999 No. 1234 (C 67) |
Include C, L, etc suffix if provided. Note alternative SI 2017/978 format - which is better? |
| Alias | both number formats - 2017 No. 978, SI 2017/978, any other likely names by which the SI is known | |
| instance of (P31) | UK Statutory Instrument (Q7604686) | Split out Scottish SIs etc when imported |
| country (P17) | United Kingdom (Q145) | |
| publication date (P577) | Year of publication | there are various other dates which a scraping of the SI text would give us - 'made', 'laid before parliament', 'coming into force' which we might look at later |
| applies to jurisdiction (P1001) | United Kingdom (Q145) | or some permutation of Scotland, NI, England&Wales, etc as appropriate |
| main subject (P921) | general topic | optional, to be completed where possible, e.g. highway (Q269949) - SI headings may have initial general subject heading. Can potentially be quite specific eg for SIs dealing with narrow geographic areas. |
| described at URL (P973) | BAILII URL | |
| legislation.gov.uk ID (P3343) | legislation.gov.uk entry | May need to tweak formatter to cope with SIs |
| Missing property | Pointer to pertinent Act | Desirable, have not figured out what property nor how to conjure data |
| Missing property | Relevant department/Minister |
- Nice to have:
- Perm Sec who signed off the SI.
- Won't have
title (P1476) - as aboveShould probably be the header of the SI, e.g. "Statutory Instruments - 2017 No. 978 - Children And Young Persons, England - The Adoption and Children Act Register (Search and Inspection) Regulations 2017" - will not attempt this in the initial load, or perhaps ever.
- Probably best to skip this one
