The Polish Parliamentary Corpus / Korpus Dyskursu Parlamentarnego

The Polish Parliamentary Corpus (PPC) is a large collection of linguistically analysed documents from the proceedings of the Polish Parliament, Sejm and Senate. It is based on the Polish Sejm Corpus co-funded by project CESAR and later extended using the support of CLARIN-PL, MARCELL and ParlaMint projects.

Corpus data

The current size of the corpus (as of 22 May 2025) amounts to over 870M segments with detailed distribution over houses, periods, and document types presented below. Apart from the stenographic records of plenary sittings (271M segments) and committee sittings (330M segments), the corpus contains 199M segments of interpellations and questions.

Corpus format

Corpus files are made available in XML TEI P5 format compatible with the annotation used by the National Corpus of Polish. The resource contains automatically created annotation of:

  • utterance-level segmentation, tokenization and lemmatization produced with Morfeusz2

  • disambiguated morphosyntactic description produced with Concraft2

  • named entities produced with Liner2

  • dependency structures produced with COMBO parser.

Download

Please use the links for individual terms of office. The XML version contains both TEI-encoded source data, metadata and linguistic annotation in CCL format; PDFs are original source files (often non-searchable).
