Legislative Assembly—viewing data
(Question No 3173)

Ms Le Couteur asked the Speaker, upon notice, on 3 July 2020:

(1) Does the Assembly collect data on the number of views of chamber proceedings, both live and on demand.

(2) Does the Assembly collect data on the number of views of committee hearings, both live and on demand.

(3) If the Assembly does collect data on the number of proceedings and hearings referred to in parts (1) and (2), is it publicly available, and where is it reported.

Ms J Burch: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1)-(2) The Office of the Legislative Assembly collects data and prepares quarterly reports on the Assembly on Demand website, noting that the data is an aggregate of both Assembly and Committee hearing videos as both are streamed through the same system.

Data is not gathered on the number of views of the live stream service for Assembly sittings.

Until recently, viewing numbers for live streaming committee hearings has not been collected. However, in the recent months, committee secretariat staff have inquired about viewing numbers for a few individual hearings and these have been provided when requested. When there is more than one hearing in a day, it is not possible to generate accurate figures for each hearing as Google Analytics only provides totals for the day, not defined hours within the day.

(3) The quarterly reports are used for internal analysis and are not publicly available.

Data showing the total annual number of user sessions for the last three years for the LA, Hansard and Assembly on Demand websites is reported in the Legislative Assembly Annual Report.
