House of Lords: Allowances The Lord Privy Seal Baroness Evans of Bowes Park moved that:
1. The Resolution of the House of 20 July 2010 (House of Lords Allowance) shall temporarily cease to have effect in respect of attendances after 20 April 2020.
2. Members of this House, except any Member who receives a salary under the Ministerial and other Salaries Act 1975 and the Chairman and Principal Deputy Chairman of Committees, should be entitled to an allowance in respect of each day of attendance on or after 21 April 2020.
3. "Attendance" means attendance –
a) at a sitting of this House or a Committee of this House,
b) at a virtual proceeding of this House or a virtual meeting of a Committee of this House, or
c) on such other Parliamentary business as may be determined by the House of Lords Commission.
4. The amount of the allowance payable to a Member in respect of a day of attendance should be £162.
 5. In respect of attendance at a physical sitting or virtual proceeding of this House only Members who speak during the sitting or the proceeding, or who are otherwise necessary to the proceedings, should be entitled to an allowance.
 6. In respect of attendance at a Committee of this House, only Members of that Committee or Members authorised to attend a meeting of such a Committee by the Chair should be entitled to an allowance. Then Lord Alderdice moved, as an amendment to the motion, at end to insert –
"7. The House of Lords Commission must determine whether the provisions of paragraphs 1 to 6 either –
(a) should continue to be in effect, or
(b) should be replaced with an alternative entitlement to allowances,
and in either case must bring a resolution to that effect before this House on, or before, 30 June 2020."
After debate, the amendment was withdrawn. Then the original motion was agreed to.

Wednesday 6 May 2020 between 12:30 and 13:30

This type of business sits within the House of Lords Allowance category, which itself sits under the Announcements category.
