For the information of honourable members, I present an amended copy of the rules for media related activities in Parliament House and its precincts which the President of the Senate and I have agreed to. The amended rules reflect a recent resolution of the Senate regarding photography in the Senate chamber and make consistent the number of photographers permitted in the galleries of both chambers. Also taken into account are references to resolutions of the House and the Joint Committee on the Broadcasting of Parliamentary Proceedings in relation to the broadcast of proceedings which were revised in 2013. The amended rules will replace those issued in November 2012 and will be made available on the Australian Parliament House website.
