History

The Official Gazette was first established by Law No. 3/72 which stipulated the release of the Official Gazette on Thursday of every week. This law was later repealed by Law No. 4/73 which stipulated the release of the Official Gazette on bi-weekly basis. The 72 law was consequently repealed by Royal Decree 84/2011 which issued the new Law of the Official Gazette which stipulated that the Official Gazette is to be published on the first working day of every week as long as there is proper content for the Gazette to publish.[2]

The first issue of the Official Gazette was issued on Thursday the 27th of April 1972.

gollark: Hmm, if it's constant folded, is that *before* it gets turned into bytecode?
gollark: For some stuff, but not all.
gollark: Then `temp`.
