  1. Added further information around 51²è¹Ý's proposition, including extending into app, notifications, and social media.

  2. Out of date content has been removed from the Proposition and the guide rewritten in line with 51²è¹Ý style to make it clearer to users what they need to do when working on 51²è¹Ý content. Content explaining non-transactional services added to ‘1. Use a government service’. Judiciary content corrected in section ‘What does not go on 51²è¹Ý’. The line ‘(courts, tribunals and judges)’ has been removed because 51²è¹Ý does have courts, tribunals and judges information but not judiciary information. A link and content have been added for ‘Publishing content somewhere other than on 51²è¹Ý (getting an exemption)’ and the previous exemptions related content has been removed from the Proposition. Users should now check gov.uk/guidance/content-design/planning-content#getting-an-exemption

  3. Removed duplicative sentence in 8. Campaigns activity and raising awareness

  4. Changes made to better define what does and does not go on 51²è¹Ý, and to incorporate guidance on how to get an exemption and transition content to 51²è¹Ý.

  5. First published.
