Although many parliamentary materials are cataloged and reflected in IUCAT, some parliamentary papers are not yet described in the library's online catalog. Be sure to consult reference staff for assistance in determining the library's holdings, particularly if you are researching a time period prior to 1900.  The online full text source, Eighteenth Century Collections Online, which contains searchable electronic versions of every book published in Great Britain in the 18th century, can also be helpful.

  • TYPES OF PARLIAMENTARY PAPERS
    • Debates
      Often termed Hansard, debates are an official record of what is said in Parliament. Prior to 1909, the debates were typically derived from secondary reports (in both the third and first person), and are not as accurate as present-day debates, which are largely verbatim and in the first person. Since 1803, the debates have been printed in several series, as outlined below:

        Series Dates
        First 1803-1820
        Second 1820-1830
        Third 1830-1891
        Fourth 1892-1908
        Fifth (Lords) 1909-present
        Fifth (Commons) 1909-March 13, 1981
        Sixth (Commons only) March 16, 1981-present

      Commons and Lords debates were published together until 1909, when they were separated. For early time periods, the library holds various texts that were compiled by individuals.  Some publications include debates of both Houses; others focus on only one House. Beginning in 1909, the debates began to be published by the government, and were give the term "Official Report".

        Note: House of Lords debates prior to 1909 were published with the House of Commons debates. They can be found in the following series, listed above: Cobbett, Torbuck, Almon and Debrett, and the first through fourth Hansard series. The publications below include only House of Lords debates.

      • Indexes of Debates
        For print volumes, both Houses' Debates have speaker and subject indexes for each session. Typically, the Commons Debates contain an index within each volume, as well as a separate index for each session. The Lords Debates tend to cumulate sessional indexes as a session progresses. These indexes are not separate volumes. In microfiche format, an index may be found at the end of each session.

        The UK Parliament Publications Database contains Commons debates from 1988 to the present, and Lords debates from 1994 to the preset. Note that older debates are continually added to the database, so the coverage is expanding.

    • Journals
      Journals are the official record of what is done in Parliament. They outline proceedings (not the words spoken in session) and are related in content to the Commons' Votes and Proceedings and the Lords' Minutes of Proceedings. Written in a formal style that reflects parliamentary tradition, the Journals are used as references about procedure and precedence. Since the House of Lords does not follow the Commons' practice of referring bills to standing committee, the Lords Journals tend to give more information regarding amendments and results of debates than do the Commons.

    • Sessional Papers
      Beginning in 1801, the papers for each House of Commons (HC) session have been bound into volumes known as the sessional papers. These papers include the various document types outlined in the chart below.  The documents are included in the library's indexes to British Parliamentary papers. Use the Find Information page,  ?pageId=16 or the links provided below.
      New to the IU Libraries in 2009 is full text access to the 20th century House of Commons Parliamentary Papers , 1902-2004.  This resource is available to authorized users on and off campus.

      More information about Command Papers, Bills, and Reports from Committees may be found below, as well as in the General Alphabetical Index to the Bills, Reports and Papers printed by Order of the House of Commons and to the Reports and Papers presented by Command, 1959-60 to 1968-69.  HMSO, 1975. GIMSS LC Ref J301 .K5 index 1959-1969.

      After 1801, the sessional papers and indexes were arranged such that references were given to sessional volume and page number. Beginning in 1979/80, however, the publication format was altered and overall pagination was eliminated. Consequently, you need only the session and document number to locate a given paper. (For more information about this change, see the forward to the Sessional Index for 1979-80, GIMSS LC Microfiche J301 .K76.)

      In 1922, many reports and papers began to be printed as non-parliamentary publications of the government printing office, HMSO, due to financial constraints.  If you are searching for papers about a particular subject from 1922 to the present, do not limit your search to parliamentary papers alone. 

      • Sessional Papers--House of Commons
        Prior to 1801, the Commons Journal included not only the House proceedings, but also various reports. During the early 1800s, these reports were printed as appendices. In 1835, they began to be printed as separate publications. Therefore, items that are presently found in the sessional papers may be located in the Journals for earlier dates.

        Before the 20th century, many House of Lords papers were 'communicated' to the House of Commons, and subsequently printed with the Commons papers. Therefore, some older Lords documents can be found in Commons publications.

        A note on the microfiche sets: The HC Parliamentary Papers set contains documents that are similar to the later HC Sessional Papers set. The fiche in the two series are produced by separate vendors who organized the papers differently. In the HC Parliamentary Papers set (1801-1975), the bills, command papers, and sessional papers for each session are grouped together. In the Sessional Papers microfiche set (1979- present), bills, command papers, and HC papers are separated into different groups, each with its own call number.

      • Sessional Papers--Indexes
        Bound volumes usually have sessional and cumulative indexes. For the recent House of Commons microfiche set (1979/80-1993/94), check the HC Sessional Index, GIMSS LC Microfiche J301 .K76. In general, you may refer to the print and CD-ROM indexes (see General Indexes, below).

      • Sessional Papers-Command Papers
        Command papers are a special group of papers that originated as a distinct group during the 19th century. They do not originate from Parliament itself, but are presented to Parliament by governmental ministers. Including State papers such as treaties, they address issues on which the executive branch of government intends to act.

        The numbering of Command papers is in several series:

        Series Papers Dates
        First series [1]-[4222] 1833-1869
        Second series [C. 1]-[C. 9550] 1870-1899
        Third series [Cd. 1]-[Cd. 9239] 1900-1918
        Fourth series [Cmd.1]-Cmd. 9889 1919-1956
        Fifth series Cmnd. 1- 1956-


        During the late 1800s, the House of Lords began eliminating the Command papers from its sessional papers. Beginning in 1900, the Command papers are found only in the House of Commons volumes. (Lords sessional indexes reference the Command papers until 1920.) To locate a Command paper number within the sessional volumes, use the following finding aids:

        • Di Roma, E. and Rosenthal. A Numerical Finding List of British Command Papers Published 1833-1961/62. New York Public Library, 1967. GIMSS LC Ref Z2009 .D58.

        • McBride, E. British Command Papers: A Numerical Finding List 1962/63-1976/77. Emory General Libraries, 1982. GIMSS LC Ref Z2009 .D5 1971 Suppl.

        These books provide the session, volume, and starting page for each Command paper number within the given time period. For other time periods, use the electronic or print indexes listed in General Indexes below.

      • Sessional Papers--Bills
        Bills are pieces of proposed legislation that Parliament considers for passage. A summary of how bills pass through Parliament can be found at the House of Lords web site.

        Bills may be located within the sessional papers, where they typically fall first in the arrangement of papers for each session. (See Sessional Papers, above.)

        Some official Internet resources that cover the past few sessions of Parliament include:

        Item Coverage
        Public Bills now before Parliament Current
        Weekly Information Bulletin (includes information about bills) Current session
        Acts (Bills that have passed through Parliament, received Royal Assent, and become law) 1988-present (Public Acts)
        1991-present (Local Acts)


      • Sessional Papers-Reports from Committees
        •  For a basic explanation of Parliament's various committees, see The Committee System of the House of Commons. A brief outline of the parliamentary committees follows:
          • Standing committees are appointed by the Commons to consider and debate certain bills. Membership changes with each piece of legislation.
          • Select committees have a more investigative function. Typically, they are appointed for an entire session, inquire into a given subject, and report their findings.
            • Select committees that are re-appointed each session are called Sessional Committees.
            • Commons and Lords Select Committees may join to form a Joint Committee.
        • Reports from Committees may be found in the sessional papers (see above). Some recent Select Committee and Joint Committee reports (dating from 1996 onward) may be found on the Web:

          House of Commons- Select Committee publications
          House of Lords- Select Committee publications


          The library also holds a set of papers, Reports from Committees of the House of Commons, 1715-1801, printed but not inserted in the Journals of the House, 1803.(GIMSS Secure Area a5551982). An index to these volumes is located in the GIMSS Foreign section; see General Indexes. Additionally, the Lilly Library has some 19th and early 20th century reports of various committees, commissioners, and commissions. Check with staff for details.)
