House of Commons mulls ‘hybrid’ videoconferencing setup

The House of Commons will today consider whether MPs should use videoconferencing to continue their parliamentary duties during the coronavirus lockdown.

Politicians have been pushing for such measures, with one proposal for up to 50 MPs to be physically present in the House of Commons chambers while a further 120 participate via Zoom for Prime Minister’s Questions.

The Commons has been on Easter recess since 25 March. If approved, the video measures would be in place from April 22.
