Irish Statute Book Explained

The Irish Statute Book, also known as the electronic Irish Statute Book (eISB), is a database produced by the Office of the Attorney General of Ireland. It contains copies of Acts of the Oireachtas and statutory instruments.^{[1] [2] [3]} It also contains a Legislation Directory which includes chronological tables of pre-1922 legislation.^[4] It is published on a website (irishstatutebook.ie) and was formerly published on CD-ROM.^[5]

In 2001, the Irish Law Times said that, whilst the Attorney General's staff deserved to be congratulated for the Irish Statute Book, the CD-ROM version contained a "significant number of errors".
