I'm trying to translate the following sentence,
八世紀の「養老神祇令」散斎条に、唐の令にはみられない肉食禁止条項が挿入されていること , but can't figure out the meaning
of 散斎条. Searching the almighty google didn't yield any results either.

It's referred to as 「養老神祇令」散斎条, so apparently a part of, or law in, the Yoro-
Code (which is a revision of the Taiho-Code from 701)

Sadly I can't find any translations or explanations about this, or a list of
laws from that code. Even a japanese friend of mine couldn't help.

Update: While the meaning is now more or less clear, I am still strugling to
find a fitting translation for "散斎". Also, do you think, 養老神祇令 can be
translated as "The Law of the Gods of Heaven and Earth during the Yoro
period"?

Thank you for your help and suggestions in advance.

Meaning of 散斎条 in this context?
[Here](http://www.sol.dti.ne.jp/hiromi/kansei/yoro06.html#11) is a list of
those laws, including the specific 散斎条.

After some cursory Googling, `散斎` seems to be a ritualistic period of time
where people avoid doing normal activities, somewhat like Passover or Shabbat.
