The Research Unit of the Parliament Office will be further upgraded as the Canadian High Commission has donated over two and a half million dollars to the Parliament Office. The monies will be used to purchase one flatbed scanner which will be of immense benefit to the Research unit in upgrading documents from previous parliaments in realising the Parliament Office’s digitisation goal. The Research Unit will also receive five Microsoft Surface Pro Tablets which will provide access for the efficient retrieval, analyzing and storing of data.
Additionally, two new headsets will be purchased for the Hansard Department which will be used for the transcription of verbatim speeches of Sittings of the National Assembly, Meetings of Parliamentary Committees and Sub-Committees.
The Parliament office has, over the years, received much needed assistance from the Canadian High Commission. Last year, the High Commission funded a project to have all Sittings of the National Assembly, which was live streamed on the internet.
