Japan Parliament Search

Give your AI agent access to every word spoken in Japan's National Diet since 1947.

This MCP server searches the official National Diet Library record system — ministerial statements, committee Q&A, and policy debates — the primary source for understanding Japanese government policy. Built for policy research, journalism, government-affairs, and compliance AI agents.

Why this server?

Japanese policy signals appear in Diet debates months before they become law or regulation. This data is public but effectively invisible to AI agents: Japanese-only, verbose, and buried in a legacy search interface. This server makes it queryable in one tool call.

Tools

search_speeches

Full-text search across all Diet speeches (1947–present). Filter by speaker, house (衆議院/参議院), meeting name, and date range. Returns speaker, position, party, date, an excerpt (or full text with full_text=true), and an official citation URL.

search_meetings

Find which plenary sessions and committees discussed a topic, and when — the bird's-eye view before drilling into individual speeches.

Example queries your agent can now answer

• 「生成AIについて文部科学大臣は国会でどう答弁している？直近のものを引用して」
• "When did the Diet last debate semiconductor subsidies, and in which committee?"
• 「インボイス制度に関する財務省side答弁を2026年に絞って要約して」

Data source & freshness
