> all parliamentary debates should be secret,
By the time something has reached the debate level, which is just theater for the most part, the big decisions have been made. No one is changing their minds or votes at that point, unless something previously unknown and exceptional is revealed, which is rare.
- kuschku 11y agoWell, the big decisions often are made in committees, sometimes in parliament, too, though. The whole process starts with a committee being started, they writing and working on several compromises, and then giving parliament the ability to vote on these. But the work of the committees – except for the TTIP committee – is also public.
