This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).
HTTP URI that identifies a piece of legislation under the European Legislation Identifier framework. Each jurisdiction defines its own URI template from common components such as jurisdiction, type, year, number, version and language, in an order it chooses; the EU level uses data.europa.eu/eli/. There is no fixed syntax: the regexp only requires a web URI with an /eli/ path segment, which every known implementation has but the framework does not mandate.
