Dear all, as I promised please find in attachment a raw example of UK act where the jurisdiction is marked up. The section 3, subsection 1 says: "This Act extends to England and Wales and to Scotland." So all the sections of this document have the same "restriction". <analysis source="#palmirani"> <restrictions source="#sec_3__subsec_1__cnt_1"> <restriction type="jurisdiction" refersTo="#ews" href="#sec_1" currentId="rest1"/> <restriction type="jurisdiction" refersTo="#ews" href="#sec_2" currentId="rest2"/> <restriction type="jurisdiction" refersTo="#ews" href="#sec_3" currentId="rest3"/> </restrictions> </analysis> The original document is available here:
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2013/31?view=extent Obviously it is possible to make all the combinations that you like, with a very deep granularity. See for example this further document: Marine Navigation Act 2013
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2013/23?view=extent In the sec. 12 we found: "Section 7 extends to England and Wales only." and the rest of the act is E+W+S+N.I Yours, monica -- =================================== Associate professor of Legal Informatics School of Law Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna C.I.R.S.F.I.D.
