Debates of the Legislative Assembly for the ACT: Weekly Hansard is a Current Series of Parliamentary Debates (Hansard) - Australian Capital Territory

The first forum for popular participation in the government of the A.C.T. was the Australian Capital Territory Advisory Council (1930–1974), whose minutes in fact resemble Hansards.

There are Hansard reports of Australian Capital Territory parliamentary debates for the following assemblies: Legislative Assembly: 28 October 1974–22 May 1979; House of Assembly: 29 June 1979–30 June 1986; Legislative Assembly: 30 May 1989+.

In the 1970s-1980s, Hansard often included the texts of committee reports, messages from the Minister [for the ACT], bills and explanatory memoranda.
