How this public record is maintained

The monitor separates what is officially recorded from what is reported, keeps unresolved matters visible, and corrects the archive when stronger evidence becomes available.

Authority rule: Parliament of Namibia, official committee papers and Pan-African Parliament records remain authoritative. This website is a public-facing index and evidence mirror; it does not replace the institutional record.

Tier 1 · authoritative

Official parliamentary record

Order Papers, Question Booklets, minutes, Hansard, committee reports, bills, calendars, gazettes and official PAP or AU publications.

Tier 2 · direct record

Signed and first-party material

Signed questions and motions, formal statements, speeches, official correspondence released for publication and verified institutional social-media posts.

Tier 3 · corroborated

Credible public reporting

Named, dated reporting used to identify or explain an event. Material claims are linked back to primary evidence whenever that evidence is public.

Tier 4 · clearly limited

Lead or incomplete record

A single-source claim, email lead or public reference without the underlying document is labelled as incomplete and is not presented as a settled outcome.

Plain-language status labels

What the tracker’s statuses mean

Awaiting reply

No substantive ministerial answer is attached to the public mirror.

Scheduled

A dated parliamentary source lists the item for future business. The newest Order Paper can supersede that date.

Answered

A ministerial response is recorded. Where the source copy is still being prepared, that limitation is stated.

Official record

An official publication confirms the event or intervention. It does not imply that detailed minutes or implementation evidence are available.

Review workflow

Evidence is checked before publication

A scheduled read-only review scans parliamentary, PAP, official, media and relevant email sources. It produces proposed additions and corrections for approval; it does not publish automatically.

One source of truth

All monitor pages use the same data

Questions, motions, bills, committee records, calendar items and the accountability tracker are loaded from one structured file, reducing contradictory counts and stale copies.

Publication safety

Validation and backup

The record schema and required fields are checked before publication, and the publishing workflow creates a dated local archive before the live deployment begins.

Visitor privacy

Light, privacy-conscious measurement

The site’s optional interaction counters stay in the visitor’s own browser. No third-party advertising tracker or behavioural profile is loaded by this website.

Corrections and missing records

Help keep the archive accurate

Send the page address, the item concerned, the correction requested and—where possible—the official source document. Submissions are reviewed against the evidence standard before the public record changes.
