NPO Politiek en Nieuws is a public television channel operated by the public broadcaster NOS, which supplies news and sports to all national public television and radio networks. Programmes come live from The Hague when the parliament is in session. When the parliament was not in session the NPO Politiek en Nieuws channel became NPO Sport, broadcasting sporting events or news and current affairs, supplied by the NOS. On 15 December 2021, NPO Nieuws merged with NPO Politiek to make the present name of this channel.{{cite web |url=https://pers.npo.nl/persberichten/npo-scherpt-extra-zenderaanbod-aan-drie-kanalen-met-aanvullende-programmering#content |title=NPO scherpt extra zenderaanbod aan: drie kanalen met aanvullende programmering |publisher=NPO |author= |date=29 November 2021 |access-date=30 November 2021 |language=nl |archive-date=29 November 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211129115715/https://pers.npo.nl/persberichten/npo-scherpt-extra-zenderaanbod-aan-drie-kanalen-met-aanvullende-programmering#content |url-status=live }} Before 10 March 2014 the channel was called Politiek 24.{{cite web |url=http://www.totaaltv.nl/nieuws/15352/npo-vernieuwt-digitale-themakanalen.html |title=NPO vernieuwt digitale themakanalen |publisher=TotaalTV.nl |author=Jarco Kriek |date=12 February 2014 |access-date=9 October 2015 |language=nl |archive-date=8 December 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208144725/http://www.totaaltv.nl/nieuws/15352/npo-vernieuwt-digitale-themakanalen.html |url-status=live }}
