Recital (law)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
In Law, a recital (from the Latin word recitare, meaning: to read out)[1] consists of an account or repetition of the details of some act, proceeding or fact. Particularly, in law, that part of a legal document—such as a lease, which contains a statement of certain facts—which contains the purport for which the deed is made.[2]
In EU law, a recital is a text that sets out reasons for the provisions of an act, while avoiding normative language and political argumentation.[3]
By convention, recitals start with the word Whereas.
