Hansard Index - Online

The Legislative Library is now making indexes to Hansard transcriptions accessible online. Currently available are indexes for the years 1999 - 2009 (including up to September 9, 2009). This service will eventually extend further back to cover other years.

The online index is very easy to use; it works the same way as the paper index. Entries are accessible by mouse-clicking on page numbers in the index.

Note: Clicking on a page number will take you to the top of the Hansard text for the day of that particular entry. You can then use standard page search features (such as Ctrl + F, or Edit > Find) to specifically locate your topic within the text itself.
