House of Representatives of The Netherlands
Case
With the app, you can follow the Parliament’s' plenary debates and committee meetings everywhere: live and on-demand, at home and on the road, on your computer, tablet, smartphone or smart TV. The app provides background information about the live debate: who is speaking, who will speak next, which documents belong to the debate, and what the votes were on this subject before. You can download fragments easily and share them online. The debates are also searchable by text.
What did we do?
We designed and built the ‘Debat Direct’ App of the Dutch Parliament. We are responsible for the concept, development and management of the Debate Direct platform and app. Since the app's launch in 2016, we have been working on the continuous improvement and innovation of the app and added many new features. We are continuously looking for ways to explain the context of the debate and translate this into functionalities in the app. The app complies with the government standard WCAG version 2.1 at level AA. It means that anyone - including users who are visually impaired, blind or deaf - can use the app. ‘Debat Direct’ had more than 11 million visitors in 2022.
