10. Reception
“ ParlWork is useful to know
what item you’re voting in
the chamber, helps to
quickly check where
business is up to ”
“ Very useful to check the
order of business each
morning in ParlWork, and
therefore I have less
reliance on the physical
documents ”
“ ParlWork is helpful
because it provides
chamber information online
and I do not have to call the
Whips office to confirm the
business of the day ”
“ Excellent application; I use
it when walking around the
building. Helps me to know
exactly where business is up
to and when I am required to
be in the chamber ”
