LIVE as King Charles speaks to Parliament before Queen's coffin is moved

The new monarch, King Charles III, will address both Houses of parliament today before travelling to Scotland to visit the Queen Elizabeth II's coffin.

Around 900 MPs and peers will meet with the King at Westminster Hall to offer their condolences on his mother's death. Following this, he will travel to Edinburgh where the Queen's coffin is currently resting after journeying from Balmoral yesterday.

Speakers from both the House of Commons and House of Lords, Sirs Lindsay Hoyle and Lord McFall, will address the King on behalf of MPs and peers at Westminster Hall before the King offers a reply. While in Edinburgh, His Majesty will also inspect a guard of honour at the Palace of Holyroodhouse before attending a ceremony of the keys on the forecourt.

The King will then hold audiences with First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and Scottish Parliament's presiding officer Alison Johnstone, separately. Travelling alongside the Queen Consort Camilla, His Majesty will receive words of condolences from the Scottish Parliament, to which he will then reply to.

During his trip to Scotland, there will be a procession along the Royal Mile to St Giles' Cathedral with His Majesty leading members of the Royal Family as they walk behind the late Queen's coffin. Once at the cathedral, the members of the Royal Family will be joined by a congregation to attend a service of thanksgiving for her life.

From 5pm, members of the public will have 24 hours to pay their respects to the Queen as she lies in state. A vigil will also be observed by the King and his family at the cathedral later on in the evening.
