Legislative Drafting Guidelines

The Guidelines have been largely modelled on the “Joint Practical Guide of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission for Persons Involved in the Drafting of Legislation within the Community Institutions” and include provisions based upon the AKOMA NTOSO African standard for digital parliamentary and legislative documents (see www.akomantoso.org).
