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>"}
