<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, Procedure and Privileges
Committee and Liaison 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 Chamber and Grand
Committee procedures moving forwards.</p>
