Accompanying legislation

The Federal Chancellery provides legal and linguistic support in the drawing up of legislation. A draft law is revised by the Internal Drafting Committee (IDC).

The Federal Chancellery also oversees legislation for the whole Federal Administration from a legal and linguistic perspective. The Federal Chancellery ensures that federal legislation put before the Federal Council is uniform, understandable and available in the official languages, and that it is subsequently published in that manner.
