Source hierarchy

  • Enacted law, Gazette material, budgets, official registers, audits, and direct institutional records control definitive claims.
  • Official speeches and releases establish what was announced, not necessarily formal approval or delivery.
  • Media and civil-society sources document scrutiny, disputes, and leads.
  • Public submissions enter review and are not automatically published as fact.

Status language

  • Confirmed: directly supported by a suitable primary source.
  • Announced: publicly named, without located approval or delivery evidence.
  • Under way: implementation activity is documented.
  • Contested: material sources disagree or interpretation remains disputed.
  • Not located: the research did not find a public copy; absence is not proof of nonexistence.

Corrections and versions

New evidence creates a new version. Earlier snapshots remain traceable. Material corrections identify what changed, why, when, and which evidence supports the revision.
