A parliamentary inquiry is a request for information about the rules and procedures of a parliament. It is like asking a teacher how to do something in class. It can also be used to find out more about a specific topic or issue. In the past, it was also a legal order to determine the amount of damages owed in a court case.
A more thorough explanation:
A parliamentary inquiry is a request for information about either procedural or substantive matters in parliamentary law. It can also refer to an inquiry that asks a question about procedure.
- A member of parliament may make a parliamentary inquiry to ask about the status of a bill or to request clarification on a parliamentary procedure.
