 LEGISLATURES AROUND THE WORLD

In 1979, the U.S. cable television industry created C-SPAN in order to put the U.S. House of Representatives on satellite, becoming the first television channel anywhere committed to live, gavel-to-gavel coverage of its national legislature. C-SPAN has since committed itself to assisting other organizations and individuals wanting to bring coverage of their legislatures to television. Approximately 25 countries have brought delegations to tour C-SPAN's headquarters in Washington. As television has come to various national parliamentary chambers, C-SPAN television has provided coverage of many countries' legislative debates. In that same spirit of information-sharing, C-SPAN.org has created this clearinghouse of televised legislatures and legislature websites from around the world.
