Welcome to Brookers Online

Brookers Online is up-to-date

Perhaps the most exciting feature of the new Brookers Online platform is dynamic updating. By releasing editorial updates the day after they’re made, Brookers Online gives you the confidence of knowing your advice or research is based on the most up-to-date information available:

View additions or amendments made by a Brookers editor to a piece of legislation or commentary the very next day
Updater will alert you to future legislative changes
What’s New will keep you right up to speed with all changes made to a database on a daily basis
New features and enhancements are available automatically on release – no action is required from users

The two diagrams below illustrate just how much of an advance this is on the way traditional updates have been made.
