Parliaments & Assemblies

Parliaments make a vital contribution to democracy. Essential to the quality of democratic life is the effectiveness with which they carry out their central functions. Complementing traditional burdensome practices with the intelligent use of technology – such as e-voting, electronic document management, etc.- will simplify Parliamentarians’ workload and increase their efficiency, while the opportunities offered by innovative information communication technology to reach out to the citizens will increase Parliaments’ accountability.
