> Dear Colleagues
>  
> I am very pleased to advise on the 110th anniversary of the first sitting of the Parliament of Australia the complete Hansard of the Australian Parliament is now available online.  The digitisation of Hansard from 1901 was undertaken to provide access to the record of the Parliament which is vital for community awareness and engagement with the Parliament.
>  
> The digitisation project was undertaken to deliver first the PDFs, which occurred in mid 2010, and now the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) versions in 2011. The project was funded by the Department of Parliamentary Services with support of the Presiding Officers.
>  
> A brochure is attached with information on:
> ·         What is available online;
> ·         The digitisation project;
> ·         Hansard search tips;
> ·         How to report any errors; and
> ·         Some significant speeches.
>  
> I would be grateful if you could pass this information on to anyone you think might be interested in Hansard online.
