Tools & capabilities
Legislation Uk tools 6
search_uk_legislationSearch by title words (and optional year) → matching Acts/instruments with full-text URLs. `type` is optional — an exact code, a plain category (`"act"`, `"si"`, `"ssi"`), or omit it to default to `ukpga`. (Renamed from `search_legislation` — the old name still resolves.)get_legislationMetadata for one Act/instrument by type + year + number: title, status, extent, enactment date, full-text URLget_legislation_sectionThe actual text of ONE section — e.g. section 5 of the Data Protection Act 2018 (`ukpga/2018/12`) — without paying for the whole statute. Takes `as_at` (or `version`) for a point-in-time date.get_legislation_textThe text of a whole Act/instrument, byte-bounded: large Acts are truncated with an explicit note pointing at the section-level tool. Takes `as_at` (or `version`).legislation_amendmentsWhat has amended this legislation (`direction: "affected"`, default) or what it amends (`direction: "affecting"`) — amending/amended instrument, affected/affecting provisions, change type, whether applied, commencement date. **Paged at 50** — always states `total_results`/`total_pages`.get_explanatory_notesPlain-language commentary written by the responsible government department, explaining what a section is meant to do. NOT part of the law. Pass `section` for one section's commentary, or omit for an overview + table of contents.
