Abstract

The authors have been involved in durable modeling of laws and regulations to be used as the formal, testable and in a multi-disciplinary group understandable requirements for law and regulation based services. At least one co-creation initiative in the Netherlands has decided to develop an extended protocol for durable modeling of laws and regulations. The vast majority of these services and actions are information-intensive and require a substantial IT effort. The main ideas underlying the protocol developed in the last three years in the Blue Chamber are described. Durable modeling of laws and regulations can only be practically applied, whenever the result is recognizable by stakeholders and can be used for the modelling of services based on these laws and regulations. To test this assumption, we illustrate the protocol using the new Dutch environment planning act.
