A citation sentence is the sentence in a legal document that sets out the source relied on for a preceding or following legal proposition, such as a case, statute, statutory instrument, EU measure, textbook or article. It tells the reader exactly which authority supports a stated proposition of law or fact, and where that authority can be located in a law report or legislation series.The expression is descriptive rather than a term defined in legislation or case law. It is used mainly in the context of written advocacy (skeleton arguments, opinions, written submissions) and academic legal writing, and is closely linked to citation rules prescribed by courts, practice directions and style guides.In practice, a citation sentence normally includes the case name or legislative title, the neutral citation (if available), the law report reference, pinpoint references to pages or paragraphs, and sometimes a short parenthetical explanation of what the authority establishes.Usage is broadly consistent across England and Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland, although specific format requirements and preferred law report series may differ between jurisdictions and courts.

Developed with the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, the London Fire Brigade, the Building Safety Regulator, London Councils, Homes England, the Regulator for Social Housing and London boroughs, the LRAP sets out four key aims: (1) remediating all high-rise buildings over 18 metres with unsafe cladding; (2) ensuring all mid-rise buildings over 11 metres with unsafe cladding are either remediated, have a date for completion or face severe penalties for inaction; (3) strengthening enforcement against landlords and developers who fail to meet their responsibilities and (4) placing residents and leaseholders at the centre of the remediation process. Delivery will be overseen by a Joint Remediation Partnership Board, co-chaired by the Deputy Mayor of London for Housing and Residential Development, Tom Copley, and the Minister for Building Safety, Fire and Democracy, Samantha Dixon MP.
