Parliament Command

Parliament Command is a parliamentary management system covering Hansard, order papers, bills tracking and committee administration for national and county legislatures.

01The problem

The legislative record runs behind the legislature. Hansard is transcribed after the fact and published weeks later. Order papers are assembled overnight. A member asking where a bill stands, or a citizen asking what was said, depends on someone reconstructing it by hand.

02Capability

01

Hansard & Records

02

Bills Tracking

Legislation followed from first reading through committee stages to assent.

03

Scheduling, papers and reporting for every parliamentary committee in one place.

04

Order Paper

Daily business, motions and voting records managed digitally.

03In the field

04Use cases

  • A sitting closes and the Hansard record is available the same day rather than after the recess.
  • A committee clerk schedules a hearing, circulates papers and files the report without leaving the system.
  • A member checks the current stage of a bill and the voting record behind it directly.
