The revised Northern Ireland Statutes are now held and maintained on the UK Statute Law Database (SLD). The link below will take you to the SLD Home page. Users will need to reset their bookmarks. Those new to SLD are encouraged to make use of the comprehensive SLD Help facility to find out what it contains and how it works.
The text of the Northern Ireland Statutes incorporated into SLD contains the effects of legislation made up to 31 December 2005. SLD provides users with the additional facility of viewing the effects of recent legislation not yet applied to the database. The 'Tables of Legislative Effects' can be accessed from the banner at the top of each page. The effects on the Northern Ireland Statutes of legislation made from 1 January 2006 onwards will be applied on SLD as soon as possible.
The Northern Ireland Statutory Publications Office in Belfast will continue to be responsible for maintaining the Northern Ireland Statutes on SLD, but all enquiries should be directed to spohelpdesk@dca.gsi.gov.uk.
