Thank you for the answer. I note that it is silent on MLAs and their staff. I know that we want a Parliament Buildings where everyone is comfortable, but I note that a number of Members wear sports gear, particularly in Committee meetings. What is the Assembly Commission's view on that issue, and will guidance be issued to MLAs so that staff members who have to abide by a particular policy will not be offended by Members?
