How Implemented
|
Configure the web site CMS to take the same browse structure as LGNL (manually or by automated means). Implement a means of modifying LGNL to take account of changes, which are released in line with changes to LGSL. Ensure there is content from each of the lowest level branches for each service with which those branches cross-reference. |
Benefits
|
|
· Lets local authority web officers combine their expertise in devising a good navigation structure
- Helps ensure that content is not missing from a local authority web site as services change for legislative and other reasons
