|
| The main expected results from LEX-IS are as follows: |
| |
 |
The LEX-IS network
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
consisting of the members of the LEX-IS consortium (Parliaments, Universities, IT Companies) including also key players outside the consortium (NGOs, collective and representative bodies) |
|
| |
| |
The LEX-IS Legislative Process Workflow Model
|
|
|
|
| |
|
This will involve the modelling of the exact process followed during the preparatory legislative phases (legislation preparation, debate, draft legislation formation), with the use of workflow management technologies |
|
| |
| |
The LEX-IS Ontology for Legal Framework Modelling
|
|
|
|
| |
|
This will involve the modelling and representation of legal elements (directives, laws, decrees) so as to assist argument visualization and legal impact for the public. Ontologies and metadata schemas will be developed for the semantic annotation of legal elements, so that all involved parties can easily locate the necessary information with the use of internet-based retrieval tools |
|
| |
|
|
The LEX-IS Platform
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Comprising of the Legal Metadata Subsystems, the Content Management Subsystem, the Legislative Process Subsystem and the Argumentation Support Subsystem |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
Addressed to: (a) the Members of the Parliaments (MPs) and other operational staff of the Parliaments, (b) Citizens, with a specific orientation towards the participation of teenagers, (c) Businesses, (d) Non-governmental organisations and collective/representation bodies and (e) independent legal experts and public servants taking part in law formulation |
|
| |
