CommonLII is a free access service which receives funding and other support from a variety of stakeholders listed below. New supporters are welcome. Enquiries should be addressed to any one of AustLII's Co-Directors Professor Graham Greenleaf, Professor Andrew Mowbray, or Mr Philip Chung.
The success of CommonLII also depends on the cooperation and assistance it receives from many organisations, both in individual Commonwealth countries, and at a regional level. In some cases these organisations have an ongoing agreement with AustLII that they will provide assistance and support in the development of CommonLII. Their assistance is acknowledged on this page.
The Commonwealth Law Ministers Meeting in Ghana, October 2005 resolved:
"Commonwealth Law Ministers welcomed the development of the Commonwealth Legal Information Institute (CommonLII). The Meeting noted that CommonLII is an Internet research facility providing free access to legal information from all Commonwealth countries. The Meeting encouraged all countries to co-operate in the development of CommonLII by providing, to the extent possible, access to their legal materials, including legislation, case law and law reform reports." |
