<p>The House of Lords Commission, which has responsibility for setting the strategic
direction in this area, met on 25 May and had a preliminary discussion of these matters.
The Commission discussion was informed by the debate on hybrid proceedings held in
the Chamber on 20 May and was followed by a meeting of the Procedure and Privileges
Committee, on 26 May, at which an initial consideration of procedural implications
was undertaken. Proposals and options will be developed ahead of further anticipated
deliberation at June meetings of the House of Lords Commission and Procedure and Privileges
Committee. Decisions will continue to be informed by the latest Government guidance
and advice from Public Health England. Finally, and most importantly, the House will
be invited to consider motions in due course to agree procedures, including those
relating to the rules of debate, moving forwards.</p>
