Independent Non-Partisan Multimedia
ParliamentToday is an independent reporting service, funded by the Office of the Clerk, providing written and audio summaries from the debating chamber and committee rooms of the New Zealand House of Representatives.
It is the only regular source of reports dedicated to parliamentary proceedings, featuring live reports of debates and results of divisions in the chamber.
Daily and weekly audio radio reports (also available as podcasts) carry all the most significant events and highlights from Question Time, debates and select committees. Our web page ParliamentToday.co.nz is constantly updated with written summaries of proceedings in the debating chamber and is the only contemporary source of the results of votes.

History
The service was established in 1994 by then Clerk of the House, David McGee, and modelled on “Today in Parliament” which is broadcast by the BBC as required by legislation passed in 1945.
ParliamentToday is funded by the Office of the Clerk and operated under contract by experienced parliamentary reporters.
Initially a radio programme, produced and presented by veteran journalist, Tom Frewen, ParliamentToday has developed into a web service which supplements conventional broadcasting with written, audio and video coverage of the House and select committees.
