Common questions
What does Bills and Benches follow?
The bill and the institution moving it, across Asian legislatures. Legislatures and Institutions hold the bodies, Policy areas group the subject matter, Elections covers how the numbers change, and Implementation follows what happens after a law passes.
Does a bill reported here become law?
Most do not, and the site reports the stage a bill is at rather than treating an introduction as an outcome. Where a piece describes a measure, it names the chamber and the stage. Implementation exists because passage and effect are different things.
Where is the reporting from?
From official records, ministry releases and named publications, summarised with the source credited and linked. Vote counts and text belong to the record that published them.
Is the site partisan?
It reports rather than campaigns, and it is independent of the parties, governments and institutions it covers. Positions in a piece are attributed to the people or parties that hold them.
Is anybody credited for the writing?
Nobody is credited individually. Each is written with automated assistance from the source material, with the publication credited in place of an author.
Is there a feed URL?
Yes, at /feed.xml, carrying everything in publication order without an account.
