Law Library of Congress Comparative Report on Lobbying and Foreign Agent Registration Laws

The Law Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. recently published a report on Lobbying and Foreign Agent Registration Laws:

The report focuses on legislative developments in a number of jurisdictions with regards to the regulation of lobbying and the registration of foreign agents. 

Furthermore, the report includes information on the extent to which China is referred to in the discussions on the need to pass such laws (or to amend them, if they already exist). The report discusses which jurisdictions have mandatory or voluntary registers for lobbying activities, legislative proposals for regulating lobbying, and which countries lack such laws. 

The Law Library of Congress is the world’s largest law library, with a collection of over 2 and a half million volumes from all ages of history and virtually every jurisdiction in the world.

Over the years, it has published dozens of comparative law reports which are a treasure trove for legal research on a huge variety of issues.
