The Electronic Voting System for Parliaments was designed by Eurel and implemented on the basis of Parliamentary and Council requirements and regulations.
The Electronic Voting System offers all the functionalities needed for performing activities related to law-making Assemblies. Through the equipments offered by the Voting System, the Assembly is able to take certified decisions with sure numeric results in very short times, as well as producing the documents necessary for reporting voting acts.
Any Assembly provided with a Eurel Electronic Voting System can count on a safe, versatile, efficient and technologically advanced platform able to meet and comply with all the decisional regulations of an Assembly.
The Electronic Voting System provides the support of Assembly voting activities guaranteeing that all results will be delivered punctually within execution times.
The Electronic Voting System is only one of the components of an extensive Multimedia Platform for Eurel Parliamentary Assembly Halls. It incorporates other features -for example managing the daily agenda and other activities, managing the Public Address System and organizing Speakers, managing video recording (from the transcription of the Video Assembly onto Internet).
