Data about the bills discussed within national parliament as well as votings on bills (not to mix with passed national law). Data on bills must be available for the current legislation period. Open data on the law-making process is crucial for parliamentary transparency: What does a bill text say and how does it change over time? Who introduces a bill? Who votes for and against it? Where is a bill discussed next, so the public can participate in debates? This data category draws on work by the National Democratic Institute (NDI) and the Declaration of Parliamentary Openness.

The original submission pointed to Bangladesh's Law and Justice Division (https://lawjusticediv.portal.gov.bd/) and the Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs (https://www.minlaw.gov.bd/), however both only have law data. The parliament's website has a section for "Bill and Legislation," with a link to a "Bill Monitoring System" here, https://www.parliament.gov.bd/index.php/bill-and-legislation-2#, however these links are unpopulated.
