Libraries

The debates include exact accounts of proceedings as they occur in both houses. All speeches are related verbatim, including any responses they provoke from the floor. Each day's edition may also include the introduction of bills, submission of reports, testimony before committees, the agenda for future meetings, or other matters of business. Any written or oral questions posed to ministers will appear in this section of the Journal officiel as well. Answers to these questions will be included, although they may not appear until several months later.
