Since the advent of newer generations of mobile networks, social media and multimedia platforms, parliaments have been increasingly experimenting with these technologies primarily for two purposes: a) to raise public awareness and understanding of the role of parliament in the country’s governance by informing citizens about its history, functions, processes and actions; and, b) to increase the participation of citizens in the law-making process by engaging them in consultations, hearings, committee work and polls through technology tools.
