Comments

As Libya has been in political chaos since February 2014. The legislation data are published by two bodies. Tripoli-based government, managed by the General National Congress, and Cyrenaica-based government, controlled by the Libyan House of Representatives. Each publishes their own legislation separately through (https://www.gnc.gov.ly/legislation_page.aspx) and (https://www.libyan-parliament.org/) respectfully. The laws are published in Arabic. An English version of some laws can be found in this non-governmental website (https://www.security-legislation.ly/).

Also, the Ministry of Justice, the Information and Documentation Center (https://itcadel.gov.ly/decision/), and its official magazine (https://www.log.gov.ly/home/) list the laws and legislation but not in a timely manner.
