UK Houses of Parliament launches Open Data portal

From the webpage:

Datasets related to the UK Houses of Parliament are now available via data.parliament.uk – the institution’s new dedicated Open Data portal.

Site developers are currently seeking feedback on the portal ahead of the next release, details of how to get in touch can be found by clicking here.

From the alpha release of the portal:

Welcome to the first release of data.parliament.uk – the home of Open Data from the UK Houses of Parliament. This is an alpha release and contains a limited set of features and data. We are seeking feedback from users about the platform and the data on it so please contact us.

I would have to agree that the portal presently contains “limited data.” 😉

What would be helpful for non-U.K. data miners as well as ones in the U.K., would be some sense of what data is available?

A PDF file listing data that is currently maintained on the UK Houses of Parliament, their members, record of proceedings, transcripts, etc. would be a good starting point.

Pointers anyone?
