Summary
Parliaments are information actors. Based on this observation, Patrick Hilbert substantiates three core theses: Parliaments fulfil a specific informing function. The informing function is an original parliamentary function that complements the established parliamentary functions. Furthermore, the informing function of parliaments has an added democratic value, although the information activity itself does not generate democratic legitimacy.
