§ The Lord President of the Council (Baroness Amos)The House will wish to know that, after consultation through the usual channels, I have today sent the following letter to the Speaker of the House of Commons:
"On behalf of the whole House of Lords, I write to let you know that we utterly condemn the invasion yesterday of the Chamber of the House of Commons.
Please be assured of this House's full co-operation in considering the implications of this incident for the security of Parliament. I look forward to continuing to work with you and others on this.
The House of Lords is fully committed, with you and the House of Commons, to maintaining the parliamentary process in the face of disorder and disruption".
