The channel broadcasts unedited debates, parliamentary questions, and committee hearings, allowing viewers to follow the legislative process as it happens. Programming also includes occasional explanatory segments on how the Oireachtas functions, but the core output remains gavel-to-gavel coverage of political sessions.
