UK law, machine-readable and cited

About this corpus

Ansvar's UK coverage is a machine-readable corpus of 3,243 consolidated UK laws and 514,115 individually-citable provisions. Content freshness is reported live, per corpus, at the gateway — ask your AI client to run list_coverage or get_changes for the current state.

United Kingdom is part of Ansvar's EFTA + UK coverage. Your AI client reaches it over a single authenticated MCP connection to the gateway, which returns the matching UK provisions with article-level citations — and can cross-reference them against EU regulations in the same call.

How citations work here

Data Protection Act 2018, s 8

UK statutes are cited by short title, year and section — the Data Protection Act 2018 is chapter 12 of 2018, and legislation.gov.uk builds its URL from the act's type, year, chapter and section (ukpga/2018/12/section/8). Statute text is Crown copyright under the Open Government Licence.

What you can do

• Search the legislation from your AI client and get back the matching provisions, not paraphrases.
• Retrieve exact provisions with article-level citations you and your auditor can open and check.
• Cross-reference national requirements with EU regulations over the same gateway connection.
