Legislative Directory
With great pride, on September 27th of 2006, Foundation Democracy without Borders hosted the release of the “Legislative Directory 2006-2010: a National Congress for all.” The event brought together over 500 distinguished guests including the 256 Members of Congress and their deputies.

This Legislative Directory was presented both in printed and electronic versions (directoriolegislativo.fdsf.hn). Both versions have political and legislative information of each congress member, and reference information for their deputies. The document includes: Board Members information, Legislative Commissions, a congressional schedule, the legislative agenda, the legal framework pertaining to the National Congress, relevant data for the eighteen departments, land boundaries, total population, population density, electoral census, economic activities, ethnic groups, and number of Congress delegates per department.

The electronic version allows you to search by:
  • department
• Congress member by last name,
• political party
• board
• Legislative Commission.
• rules and regulations
• legislative agenda
• resources and links, including websites for the National Congress, Foundation Democracy without Borders, political parties and the media

 

Foundation Democracy without Borders expects this initial effort will allow a transparent decision making process for Congress and its members' activities, thus promoting a culture of access to public information in a democratic state.
