Note: The methodology used in the Global Open Data Index has changed over time; significantly so between 2015 and 2016. For this reason, the results are not directly comparable over time.

What data is expected?

This data category requires all national laws and statutes to be available online, although it is not a requirement that information on legislative behaviour e.g. voting records is available.

Content of the law / status
Date of last amendment
Amendments to the law (if applicable)

How open is the data?

It's not openly licenced
It's in an open and machine-readable format
It's downloadable at once
It's up-to-date
It's publicly available
It's available free of charge

A bit unsure as to whether the Library of Congress should be considered as a government source because since it offers impartial service to congress, I am not sure whether is acts on behalf of government. But I decided to accept the data because 1)the speakers of the lower and upper house are among the chief decision makers 2) one of the Library's main function is to provide information to Congress (so it is closely associated with Congress) 3) Alyssa Beaton of Open North also pointed out that Library of Congress uses the same domain as other government website (.cl).
