Switzerland
BBC Parliament broadcasts live and recorded proceedings from the United Kingdom’s Houses of Parliament, including debates, committee hearings, and select committee sessions. The channel also covers political events such as Prime Minister’s Questions and major state occasions from Westminster. In Switzerland, the channel is available via certain satellite and cable providers, offering viewers access to unscripted political coverage without commentary or analysis. Programming is in English and focuses on the legislative process rather than entertainment or current affairs summaries. The schedule follows the parliamentary calendar, with repeats filling non-sitting periods.
