Love this idea.. interested in suggestions as how to do this - via the getDebete or getHansard API? Or is there another way of doing this?

Could extend the plugin to have two "modes", a "related discussion" mode and a specific mode.

* Related discussion would let you use the getDebeate / getHansard API to get related topics for a specified search term.
* Specific mode - would do as you suggested, link to a specific speech/quote made... not to sure as to how to do this yet..
