About this title

Synopsis

This book extensively examines the origins and development of the official reporting of parliamentary debates in England. Prior to the mid-18th century, the publication of parliamentary debates was forbidden and considered a breach of parliamentary privilege. However, despite the prohibition, many enterprising individuals took it upon themselves to publish unofficial accounts of the debates. The author delves into the various methods employed by these individuals to gather information about the debates, including attending the proceedings in person and obtaining reports from members of Parliament. The book also examines the accuracy and reliability of these unofficial accounts, highlighting the challenges faced by the authors in producing faithful records of the debates. Furthermore, the book explores the changing attitudes towards the publication of parliamentary debates over time, with growing support for the idea that the public had a right to know what their elected representatives were saying and doing. This led to the eventual relaxation of the ban on reporting and the emergence of official parliamentary reporting. Ultimately, this book provides a fascinating insight into the history of parliamentary reporting in England, shedding light on the challenges, controversies, and significance of this practice in shaping the country's political landscape.
