It was expected that around 40 MLAs would be facilitated across three dates, according to the correspondence seen by Belfast Live
The Stormont Assembly is offering to arrange travel for MLAs heading to London to see the Queen lying in state.
The Assembly also did not answer questions on how much funding has been made available to cover MLAs' travel costs. Parliamentary House staff can also avoid the line, while accredited journalists who have access to the parliamentary estate can bypass the queue by booking time slots. . We asked the NI Assembly for a list of the MLAs who availed of this, but they did not release this information. Belfast Live also contacted other parties to ask who took up the offer but they were unable to tell us.
