Find out about the following services in particular: Lawmaker Lawmaker is a service enabling users to draft and manage secondary and primary legislation (including the parliamentary amendment process). It is XML-based and accessed via the browser. Lawmaker is delivered by The National Archives to users in the UK Government, UK Parliament, Scottish government, Scottish Parliament, Northern Ireland Assembly and Northern Ireland Executive. The National Archives uses external contractors to help deliver the Lawmaker service including through maintaining infrastructure and software, providing user support, ensuring security, developing new features and extending the service to new use cases. At this point we anticipate this opportunity going out to procurement in the 2026/27 financial year. Legislation services The National Archives is responsible for providing the legislation.gov.uk Platform which: makes both enacted and revised legislation available on the web for the public to access and use, and provides legislation as open data for data users to include in their own products and services.

We are looking for suppliers with the technical skills and experience to maintain and continuously develop the legislation.gov.uk Platform to ensure it is accessible, robust and performant. Statutory responsibilities for the official publication of all UK legislation are managed through a separate publishing concessionary contract. We provide the concessionaire with access to the legislation.gov.uk publishing system so that they can publish legislation both online and in print. At this point we anticipate this opportunity going out to procurement in the 2026/27 financial year.

In the coming years we will continue to invest in, among other things, securing and expanding our digital archive, developing our catalogue management and digital preservation systems, and growing the Find Case Law service.
