The Lagos State Government says all the laws in operation in the state are now available on the Internet and can be accessed by lawyers, investors and members of the general public.

The state’s Attorney General and Commission for Justice, Mr. Adeniji Kazeem, said this in a statement on Monday by the Public Relations Officer of the Lagos State Ministry of Justice, Mrs. Bola Akingbade.

The AG, according to the statement, added that the move is in furtherance of the government’s commitment to driving its administration through innovation and technology.

Adeniji said, “This online platform is set to fulfill the obligation of the state government to create easy access to the laws, thereby promoting accountability and responsibility, and to enable investors to make informed decisions about their investments in the state.

“Parts of the benefit which the site offers is that online users do not need to upload all the 233 laws, but would be able to purchase and download only the laws relevant to them.”

He encouraged lawyers and the entire public to visit the site, www.laws.lagosstate.gov.ng, to view the laws and make their purchases, adding that payment cards including MASTERCARD, VISA, VERVE and INTERSWITCH had been integrated to the online platform.
