Note: The methodology used in the Global Open Data Index has changed over time; significantly so between 2015 and 2016. For this reason, the results are not directly comparable over time.

What data is expected?

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.

Details

I changed the original submission to indicate that transcripts were not available. Votes are not available either (but original submitter had already indicated this). Since these are optional characteristics I am accepting the submission. The required characteristics were very easy to locate. I also changed B5 to NO. Data can only be printed in bulk, not downloaded.

Reviewer comments

The submission should be accepted because all the required characteristics are present in the data set.
