No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/no_law_get for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Read a Norwegian act, or one section of it, in the consolidated current text published by Lovdata. Give the act id from no_law_search (e.g. “1999-05-21-30” for the Human Rights Act, “2005-05-20-28” for the Penal Code) and optionally a section (”§ 275”, “5-3”, or “110” for a constitutional article). Returns the text in Norwegian, where the section sits in the act, its amendment history (with entry-into-force dates), the act’s entry-into-force date and last change in force, a proper citation, the data date and the NLOD licence attribution. Without a section it returns the act’s contents list and the opening text, up to max_chars. Keyless.

Parameters

`section`	string	no	Optional section as cited, e.g. ”§ 275”, “5-3”, ”§ 14-9a”; for the Constitution an article number such as “110”. A subdivision (”§ 5-3 første ledd”) returns the whole section.
