parliamentary reporting

Parliamentary reporting involves the detailed record-keeping of debates, decisions, and activities that occur during parliamentary sessions. It ensures transparency and accountability by creating an official, accurate account of discussions, votes, and legislative processes. Reporters or official recorders capture the proceedings verbatim or in summarized form, which can then be published as minutes or transcripts for public review, media coverage, and reference by lawmakers. This process helps ensure that government actions are transparent and that citizens and officials can review how decisions are made and laws are enacted.
