On Semantic Annotation of Legislation |
| Description: |
Adam Wyner The talk presents an overview of recent work on semantic annotation of legislation. The law is presented in a range of complex, dense texts. Querying and correlating laws would help individuals and organisations access, understand, and comply with their legal obligations. We first present the Core Legal Annotation Language (CLAL), a machine readable XML for key semantic elements such as obligations, prohibitions, exceptions, and others. CLAL is applied to the GDPR; we show some examples. We then turn to issues related to information retrieval from the annotated GDPR, particularly where implicitly related information is needed, e.g., obligations and rights. Finally, we step back and discuss general methodological issues. Currently, there is diversity amongst the metadata of legal texts. This is particularly problematic for the law, as it is desirable to have common resources in order to extract information or support inferences. To achieve this, we propose a methodology based on the notions of formalisation continuum, modularisation, and stepwise refinement. |
