Lord Speaker’s Statement

Contribution

My Lords, I would like to repeat a short Statement for information concerning events on the Parliamentary Estate this weekend. The safety and security of all those who work on and visit the Parliamentary Estate are the Lord Speaker’s top priority. A review will be undertaken into Saturday’s incident. The Lord Speaker thanks all those who were involved in helping to ensure that Saturday’s incident was resolved safely. An individual has been charged and the House’s sub judice resolution now applies. Finally, I remind all noble Lords that we do not discuss the detail of security measures in the Chamber.
