Sittings of Parliament

Every sitting of the House of Assembly and the Senate, newest first — what was planned, what was decided, and what was said.

For each sitting: the Order Paper (what was planned), the Minutes (what was decided), the Video and the Hansard (what was said).

No sittings match. Try a date such as “14 May 2024”, a year, or a word from a Bill’s title.

How to use this page

Every sitting of the House of Assembly and the Senate is listed here, newest first. For each one you can open up to four documents: the Order Paper is what was planned for the day (sometimes with a Booklet of the Bills and a Supplement); the Minutes record what was decided — which Bills were read, amended and passed; the Video is the recording of the sitting, often in several parts; and the Hansard is the written report of what was said.

Under a sitting, Passed: lists the Bills read a third time and passed that day; each title opens the Minutes at the page where it is recorded. Use the year strip to jump to a year, the pills to show only one chamber or only sittings with video, Hansard or Minutes, and the search box to find a date or a Bill.

Order Papers, Minutes and videos are held from about 2005 onwards; for older years, back to 1947, we usually have the Hansard only. A greyed label such as “Minutes —” means that document is not yet in our collection.
