What would be great is an 'open source' legal movement.
Non-profit legal orgs which read the details of laws, cases and then put up detailed 'views' of the laws from the perspective of an individual, company, buyer, seller, landlord, tenant etc.
Instead of having a list of laws, have an experience based checklist for each type of agent.
Also, requiring the government to not just frame laws but provide this kind of information. The ico website[1] seems to be doing it for this particular law.
This might be less useful in boundary cases, where firms with legal resources play at the edge, but it can at least serve as a safe upper bound for a lot of regular activity.
Lot of this information already exists in books, legal reviews, but this is important enough to be made conveniently available on an public website.
