- View Speech - Hansard - - - Excerpts

I want to make a statement about Saturday’s security incident. The safety and security of all who work on and visit the parliamentary estate is my top priority. I have asked for a review to be undertaken of Saturday’s incident and will ensure that lessons are learned from it. I thank 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 Members that we do not discuss the detail of security measures in the Chamber. I will not be taking points of order on this matter. If Members or others have concerns, they should contact the director of parliamentary security. Of course, I am always available to discuss these issues with colleagues.
