This dataset contains verbatim transcripts in Dutch from plenary sessions of the European Parliament. It includes both speeches originally delivered in Dutch and those translated into Dutch by the European Parliament’s official services. The focus is on capturing the spoken content of debates, excluding procedural remarks and attendance records.
