The ParlWork web application provides access to public information about the work of the Senate and House of Representatives. It brings together a breadth of information relating to the agendas, legislative work, notices of motions, resolutions and the decisions made by each House. Parliamentarians and anyone interested in following the proceedings of Parliament while each House is in session will find this to be valuable and an information rich resource. ParlWork supplements a number of existing parliamentary information resources such as the Parliament of Australia website and ParlInfo search.
