Statute law: is it in force?

The Public general acts & general synod measures show the Act as it was originally published, without subsequent amendments. Legal databases such as Lexis Library and Westlaw UK, both on the University network, can be used to look up legislation currently in force. These databases can be accessed from the University Collections search in StarPlus.

The official government site for legislation is http://www.legislation.gov.uk/
