For ECLI, ensure that, by 2030, all case-law in all Member States is assigned an ECLI and can easily be found on the ECLI search engine on the European e-Justice Portal.

For ELI, ensure that, by 2030, each piece of legislation in all Member States is assigned an ELI, to be easily found on the ELI search engine.
