Summary/Abstract: In this paper a preliminary study on verbatim records of sittings held in the Estonian Parliament is carried out. The structure of the discussions is represented by using the dialogue acts of a custom-made typology. The premises and claims of arguments used in negotiations and their relations are annotated. The further aim is to create means for automatic recognition of the structure as well as analysis of contents of parliamentary negotiations and political arguments.
