Legislation Search Help Page

You can use the Legislation search facility to search for details of European and National Legislation:

Select multiple options in the menu boxes using the SHIFT and CTRL keys, for example:

to select a range of items in a menu:

• click on the first option (it will be highlighted)
• scroll to the bottom of the list
• hold down the SHIFT key and then click on the last item in the list (all selected items will be highlighted)

to select or deselect individual items:

• click on a option in the list (it will be highlighted)
• hold down the CTRL key and then click on another item in the list (all selected items will be highlighted)
• hold down the CTRL key and then click on another item in the list (all selected items will be highlighted)
• hold down the CTRL key and then click on a highlighted item in the list (it will no longer be highlighted)

Item One Item Two Item Three

If multiple options are selected then the system searches by default using a Boolean AND operation. This means that it will only display Reports that match ALL the search criteria.

  AND - match ALL search criteria    OR - match ANY search criteria 

You can change the selection using the radio buttons immediately above the search button. Running the search using a Boolean OR operation will display Reports that match ANY of the search criteria. This will usually give you more results than the Boolean AND search.

  AND - match ALL search criteria    OR - match ANY search criteria 

Note: It is not possible to search for Reports from more than one country at a time.
