Committee meeting attendance trends for 2018

This page shows the attendance rates of the committees in the National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces in 2018 as well as the change in attendance since 2017. The attendance rate is automatically updated as committees meet and attendance is recorded. In the first few weeks of a new year, when no committees have met yet, this page will show data of the previous year.

You can click on a committee name to get more information; historical attendance rates as well as membership details can be found in the right sidebar of every committee page. It's also possible to download the raw data to do your own calculations and analysis.

For MP and Minister attendance rates we'd like to refer you to People's Assembly.
