The request is for the data published on the parliament's website: https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/bills-and-laws/bills-proposed-laws/all Specifically, it would be helpful if either a .csv or .json file containing 1) the title of the bill, 2) the description of the bill, 3) all the details in the table for each bill (after clicking the View Details button at the bottom of the page) of all the bills currently published on the website could be provided. The RSS file on the current webpage contains all the information mentioned above, however, it only offers a few entries.
From an academic perspective, having open access to the legislative data could help scholars get the basic information of the bills. Such information would be useful to develop projects on topics related to party competition, inter-party cooperation, coalition governance, democratic representation, governing efficiency, etc in established democratic systems. For example, the Canadian Parliament provides full access of the bills via RSS, Json, and xml format (https://www.parl.ca/legisinfo/en/bills), which helps a lot to expedite research progress.
