ELI (European Legislation Identifier) - Finland
Publisher
Description
This is the ELI metadata of Finland. ELI (European Legislation Identifier) defines a common metadata model for sharing legislation description on the web of data.
The key contents of the legal norms, such as acts, decrees that further define acts, and case-law (legal cases) related to their implementation have been available for viewing on the Internet, via the Finlex service provided by the Ministry of Justice. Although information on law and justice has been available, in this way, to human readers in the form of web pages, the datasets have not been available in the form of open data usable by IT applications, other online services and legislative applications through the downloading of data or via open interfaces.
At its current initial stage, Semantic Finlex includes:
- a wide range of original texts of acts and decrees (approx. 45,000),
- consolidated legislation based on the aforementioned statutes (approx. 2,800),
- decisions of the Supreme Court (approx. 5,400), and
- decisions of the Supreme Administrative Court (approx. 7,000).
The contents are automatically updated from the Finlex service.
