Authoritative, trusted source - access to comprehensive coverage

“As a long-standing client of CCH Parliament, it is a useful resource because it provides us with insights and access to everything that government, corporates, industry associations and consumer groups are releasing in the public arena on hot topics such as financial services, consumer regulation and economic indicators” said George Karagiannakis, IAG.

“The current economic climate and budgetary factors led to a recent review of our CCH Parliament information services. The Wolters Kluwer CCH Parliament team worked with us to tailor the coverage to 4 essential topics as part of CCH Political Alert:

  • Finance
  • Industry – Retail & Consumer Affairs
  • Insurance
  • Parliament – which includes Lower House Bills List, Lower House Committee Hearings, Lower House.

“We also stay up-to-speed on the latest legislative and political developments with other key CCH Parliament services including Federal Political Briefing, National Daily Headlines, Bill Trackers (Federal, NSW, Vic) and Political Updates – National” George said.

Flexibility and peace of mind

“Flexibility is key, with new team members joining and departing the business. We were able to align our user management and access for CCH Parliament with the evolving needs of the business.”

“Over the years, we extended access to CCH Parliament to selected members of the Media Relations team to facilitate information sharing and provide first-hand access to the coverage”

“CCH Parliament ensures we are completely aware of comments (and statements) that are being made about our company. It also gives our team the ability to reach out to people or make a comment to those people that are of interest to us” said George.

George concluded, “Information sharing across the Government Relations and Media Relations team allows IAG to strategise and react to any major announcements/mentions/news more efficiently.”
