Annotation Types on SLD

Note:

Note that some annotations dating from before the basedate may be assigned to the wrong annotation types. We are re-assigning them to the correct types as we come across them.

 

Northern Ireland Variations

In Northern Ireland legislation made in 2005 and earlier years, all annotations appear as F-notes under the ‘Annotations’ heading without any sub-categories. In legislation made in 2006 and later years, the categorisation of annotations is consistent with usual SLD practice.
