Journalists allowed back into Parliament after ban by speaker

Journalists working for news website Index may again report from Parliament from February 13, Parliament’s press chief Anita Altorjai told reporters on Wednesday.

She warned that journalists are obliged to honour the House rules and directives issued by the Speaker about the media.

Index was banned from Parliament last December after posting a humorous year-end video filmed in the building.
