The Clerk’s office of the House of Representatives of the United States implemented two projects: 

• The House Floor Summary may now be accessed through a real-time RSS feed. The feed displays legislative proceedings as they occur, in addition to the proceedings of the previous five legislative days.

• New speaker search tool: HouseLive.gov now provides users with the ability to search the full transcript of any legislative day to find the video of where a Member of the House spoke on the Floor. The  search function is accessible via the dropdown menu at the top of the Floor Summary window.

The Reports, prepared by the Global Centre for ICT in Parliament, intend to help legislatures to harness the potential benefits of ICT for their work and establish key goals and priorities for exploiting this valuable resource. While providing evidence of the complexities of e-parliament, the Reports suggest ways to overcome some of the obstacles to the effective use of technology in parliamentary settings.

Les documents parlementaires tels que les rapports des comités et les textes des débats et auditions sont des données fondamentales de la législature. Ces documents doivent être préparés rapidement, efficacement et précisément. Ils doivent être distribués facilement et ensuite amendés, et redistribués tout aussi facilement. Et ils doivent être archivés effectivement pour en assurer la disponibilité et la préservation à long terme.
