Official Report
3.55 The Official Report, or Hansard, is the substantially verbatim
record of debates and proceedings in the House and Grand Committee.
It also includes:
(a) the text of written statements and of replies to questions for
written answer. 1 Statements or answers that are excessively
lengthy may occasionally be placed in the Library rather than being
printed; 2
(b) proceedings in public bill committees;
(c) certain items not spoken in the Chamber that are the subject of
formal minute entries, relating to the progress of Bills;
(d) a hyperlink (in the online version) to the electronic texts of various
relevant documents, including reports from domestic or select
committees, copies of Bills or Statutory Instruments, and other
official documents of direct relevance to the debate;
(e) texts of amendments moved;
(f) division lists.
3.56 Hansard is produced by an Editor and staff who are accountable
to the Clerk of the Parliaments. It is published online in draft form
throughout the day, approximately three hours behind real time. This is
replaced the following morning by the completed online daily transcripts,
at the same time as the printed version is produced. If the House sits
after 2.30 a.m., a cut-off time on material printed may be imposed, with
1 SO 44.
2 Procedure 4th Rpt 1998–99. The Leader of the House advises if necessary on individual cases
of difficulty (Procedure Committee minutes, 4 April 2000).
