La Chaîne parlementaire (pronounced[laʃɛːnpaʁləmɑ̃tɛːʁ];French for 'The Parliamentary Channel') is a French television network created that combines the station LCP - Assemblée nationale along with its sister station Public Sénat, under one channel station, by law on 30 December 1999.[1][2] It films and broadcasts live and recorded debates twenty-four hours a day, including committee hearings, questions to the government, and discussions concerning parliamentary debates and government policy. There are programs that focus on different levels of government; some programs are about Europe, others about local government. Linked toPublic Sénat from its inception, the two channels share content. The Public Sénat chain also broadcasts a nightly news analysis program and funds and broadcasts documentaries.
