Research statement

Background This article reports on three publications arising from a collaborative research project between QUT Law and CSIRO’s Data61 entitled ‘Classifying the Legal and Coding Challenges of Digitising Commonwealth Legislation’ (approval number C024166). Contribution Co-author Significance The conversion of law and regulation into computer code, also referred to as digital regulation, has become increasingly widespread. Professor Anna Huggins, Dr Alice Witt, Professor Mark Burdon, and their team at the School of Law at Queensland University of Technology, Australia are exploring opportunities and challenges associated with digitising regulation. In their most recent paper, they identify and analyse misalignments between regulation and how it is encoded arising from subjective interpretations, using legal cartography concepts.
