Legislation
Purpose
The Legislation Registers in byondpro provide a means of recording all government legislation, industry standards and guidelines that impact risk and control register entries.
Legislation entries can be associated with risks and controls, and any actions required can be logged directly in the register together with publications, links to external websites and any form of electronic file. Legislation registers and other associated reports can be printed from the Cases & Risks category under the reports menu.
