UNOFFICIAL
The UK’s new legislation site has a similar convention although differently
named. The base is XML and it is rendered as required. Taking for example
Section 1 the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900:
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/63-64/12/section/1
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/63-64/12/section/1?view=plain
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/63-64/12/section/1/data.xml
Although not applied to this Act, some more recent Acts will also provide an
RDF representation if you add /data.rdf
One major difference is the raw XML version of UK legislation contains embedded
metadata whereas the BBC doesn’t, although it does in RDF.
