"content": "Hon. Members, in view of the above, I wish to caution Members that possession of firearms and offensive weapons in the Chamber constitutes a gross disorderly conduct as provided for by Standing Order No.107(h). Accordingly, I direct the Serjeants-at-Arms, being the officers of the House responsible for enforcement of these rules, to strictly undertake stringent security checks as required by Standing Order No.99, to ensure that no Member accesses the Chamber before depositing his or her firearm with them. Similarly, the Safety and Security Department under the Joint Services is directed to ensure that strangers are subjected to thorough security checks before being admitted into the precincts of Parliament. The House and officers of the House are accordingly advised. Hon. Members, while still on this, I wish to reiterate that it is not the desire of the administration of Parliament to impede entry into the precincts of Parliament of journalists who are credited to cover Parliament. I, therefore, direct again that the Serjeant-at-Arms and other security organs of the House make it possible for journalists accredited to Parliament to access the precincts without unnecessary hindrances. Thank you, hon. Members."
