- On your revision history, you said that Irish law is copyright protected for 50 years from publication. I'm going to need a source on that, because it sounds ridiculous. How can the law of the land be subject to copyright? Are people in Ireland being charged with offences under various acts but not allowed to see the offence wording reprinted because it's subject to copyright? Come on, this is highly dubious...
