HOUSE OF COMMONS COMMITTEE CHAIRS ISSUE STATEMENT ON CORONAVIRUS AND THE CONTINUATION OF THE HOUSE

The Chairs of the Administration Committee and the Procedure Committee of the House of Commons have issued a statement announcing temporary measures attempting to guarantee the continuation of the House during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

The measures will be subject to “regular review”, and are to be made in line with developing public health guidance and official advice on social distancing and self-isolation.

The statement ends on a note of humility, indicating that this experience may show areas in which procedures and services to MPs and the public can be improved when we return to normal life.
