Project: Developing a Reporting Framework
Client name: History of Parliament
The History of Parliament is a charitable trust whose primary objective is to advance the education of the public in general on the subject of the history of Parliament. It is a major research project creating a comprehensive account of the English, British and UK Parliament from the thirteenth century. Founded before the Second World War and unparalleled in the comprehensiveness of its treatment, the History is generally regarded as one of the most ambitious, authoritative and well-researched projects in British history.
