Political parties not allocated rooms in new Parliament building; only nine rooms reserved. No clarity on whether parties can keep offices in old Parliament. New building has 120 office rooms, 49 for Ministers, wing reserved for PM
None of the political parties have been allocated rooms in the new Parliament. According to the sources, there are only nine rooms reserved for political parties, which would mean that several parties will find themselves without one.
There is no clarity on whether the parties can hold onto the offices they have in the old Parliament.
So far, sources said, none of them have been given eviction orders. The new building has 120 office rooms, out of which 49 are for the Ministers and an entire wing is reserved for the Prime Minister’s office.
