Parliament Provides More Insight in the Future

In the future, the website will feature overviews of legislative decisions in the National Council and the voting behavior of the clubs, as announced by the parliamentary correspondence on Friday. Additionally, extended statistical reports on speeches by National Council members, inquiries to the government, and review procedures will be published.

Numerous pieces of information about the work of the National Council and the Federal Council are already accessible to the public on the parliamentary website. These will now be expanded with overviews and statistics. For the Federal Council, the parliament will publish the list of future Federal Council presidents starting September 1, i.e., the first-ranked individuals from the respective states who alternate in chairing every six months. There will also be lists of the Federal Council's objections and approvals regarding laws.

Inquiry Committees and Budget Consultations

For inquiry committees, a summary of compensation or cost reimbursement for procedural judges, procedural lawyers and their deputies, as well as for investigative officers and experts, will be published at the end of a committee. During the annual budget consultations, the brief budget inquiries of the members of parliament and the responses by government members will be documented. More information from the parliamentary administration will also be made available. The additional information will be available from next week on the parliament's website under the section "Freedom of Information".
