A legislation item is created only by getting data from EUR-lex. A translation is automatically added for all available languages in iRASFF if it exists in EUR-lex.
Note
What is EUR-lex?
EUR-Lex is an online gateway to EU Law. It provides the official and most comprehensive access to EU legal documents. It is available in all of the EU's 24 official languages and is updated daily.
Link to EUR-lex: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/homepage.html?locale=en
The creation of a legislation item is possible only at EC level. If a legislation is missing from the list, please ask the ECCP to add it to the catalogue.
Legislation can be set for one or multiple networks. Only the Catalogue Administrator (at ECCP) can create a new legislation item.
Once the legislation item has been created, the CELEX, Title, In force, Consolidated date fields are not updated manually, but are synchronised via webservice with EUR-lex.
What is a CELEX number?
A CELEX number is a unique identifier assigned to a document. It is independent of the language of the document. Most documents on EUR-Lex are assigned a CELEX number.
