Maintaining legal compliance is crucial as it ensures adherence to laws and regulations, mitigates risks, and protects organizations from legal consequences such as fines and lawsuits. Compliance also plays a key role in safeguarding an organization's reputation, fostering trust among stakeholders, and supporting business continuity by preventing disruptions arising from regulatory non-compliance. This example shows how to implement process to comply with EU regulations by reviewing all new legislations published at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/oj/direct-access.html

How does it work?
1. Open EU Regulation page with new legislation acts
2. Open the most recent entry
3. Open each act one by one
4. Check if the new legislation act URL is already in the database
5. Check if the act is available in English
- If it is then create a short summary using OpenAI
- If not then save the act URL and summary as "English version is not available"

Process requirements
Process uses 'legislation_acts' MySQL database table
CREATE TABLE `legislation_acts` ( `id` bigint NOT NULL, `url` varchar(300) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `summary` varchar(1000) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `c` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci; ALTER TABLE `legislation_acts` ADD PRIMARY KEY (`id`); ALTER TABLE `legislation_acts` MODIFY `id` bigint NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT; COMMIT;
