Database History

• The database was created by Codify Legal Publishing in 2016.

• Codify’s bills & regulation database goes back as far as January 2016.

• The proclamation database goes back to 2009, so as to to include older provisions that have yet to be proclaimed into force.

• In 2021, the database was migrated to the URL codifylaws.com, as a part of the Codify 2.0 project.
