The New Zealand Parliament (Pāremata Aotearoa) is where issues that affect us all are debated and discussed, laws are made, and the Government is held to account. This page provides news and updates about what Parliament’s working on, and how you can get involved. We also feature information about events and tours at Parliament, parliamentary history, and our relationships with other parliaments overseas. This page is run by the Office of the Clerk (the House of Representatives’ secretariat at Parliament). We’re not affiliated with any political party and we’re independent of the Government.
