King Charles hears condolences at Westminster Hall as Queen ... (The Guardian)

King Charles III meets both houses of parliament before flying to Edinburgh where a service of thanksgiving will be held at St Giles' cathedral.

We do it in the name of the sovereign, and the people of this country. A Ceremony of the Keys on the forecourt of the palace will follow. It is not yet known whether he will pass this to his son, the new Prince of Wales. Members of the public will be able to file past the coffin 24 hours a day, with police and transport organisations preparing for an influx of people. On Monday evening, Edinburgh’s lord provost and the lord lieutenant for Edinburgh, Cllr Robert Aldridge, will hand King Charles III the keys to the city, in a ceremony at Holyroodhouse. The prime minister will also attend the service. It will be King Charles’s first visit to Westminster as monarch. The Queen opened the devolved parliament in 1999, and its new building in 2004, visiting it ten times during her reign. People are being asked to check ahead and come prepared to stand in long queues,” the government said. Once people have paid their respects, they are asked to move away from the exits to allow the queue to keep flowing. There mourners would each be given a wrist band to allow entry to the cathedral, and encounter airport-style security checks on George IV bridge, leading to the Royal Mile. And as it comes to first meetings, we now honour my father in his new role as King Charles III.
