Congress leader in the Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury Wednesday sought food and transport facilities for Parliament staff when the House sits for late hours.

His request to Speaker Om Birla came a day after the Lower House transacted business till 11.15 pm.

On Tuesday, there was dinner for the members but staff did not get food. Also, there was no arrangement for the staff to go home, Chowdhury said and requested the Speaker to look into the issue next time.

In response, the Speaker said, "now you will get everything".
