The UK's Hansard is not verbatim; it omits repetitions and redundancies and corrects obvious and grammatical mistakes, while attempting to maintain the meaning of all speeches. As MPs refer to each other by the name of their constituency, Hansard identifies MPs by name. Canada's Hansard is published in both English and French, noting the original language a member used.
