<p>It is a firm requirement of the House authorities that all Parliamentary passholders
must wear their security passes when they are on the Parliamentary Estate. The importance
of pass-wearing was confirmed by the House of Lords Commission at its meeting on 13
September.</p><p>Members of the House of Lords who do not comply with the requirement
to wear their security passes on the Parliamentary Estate are liable to be challenged
by Security Officers and others. Any cases where a member is persistent in not wearing
their pass will be raised with the relevant Whips or with the Convenor of Crossbench
Peers as necessary. In addition, spot checks on pass-wearing, assisted by mobile pass-readers
on the Estate, will be conducted on a regular basis. The importance of pass-wearing
is emphasised on posters displayed prominently throughout the Parliamentary Estate.</p>
