Thank you for pointing us to these resources @romtal. They are the same as we have in the entry for this data set so we won’t change the submission.

The french draft legislation is “downloadable at once” as it fulfills the requirements stated in the methodology. In the case of France as large amount of data are in question the downloads are organized into sub-files (cf. Answer “yes”, if you can download all data at once from the URL at which you found them. In case that downloadable data files are very large, their downloads may also be organised by month or year or broken down into sub-files.) Thus, their download is very easy and doesn’t require “many manual steps to download”.

Well, it would be hard to download everything at once since not everything is available :wink:

Thank you for the observation @romtal . In the first comment it seemed like a request to update the data sources, but you are right in your observation about bulk download and we will change accordingly.

Sériously? Draft legislation 100% open in France??? Anyone with a minimum of interest on the matter knows it’s false…
What is not clear in “content of bills” does not exist as open data?
