Seals breed in Parliament House cave during the autumn months and climbers should take particular care not to disturb them during the time from late August to late October when the young seal pups can be eailsiy sepreated from their mothers with devastating consequences.

A large (huge!) rockfall occured at the back of Parliement House Cave in 2017 which affects some of the routes in the cave and further rockfalls are likley!

βeta: The guidebook mentions stepping down to a hold on the rib, but I stayed high and used a good jam and a jug to pull out of back and footing on the downward pointing fang, and onto the far wall.

βeta: I think that the first pitch continues past the in situ purple sling (beware, the wires and a krab are rotting) to belay instead on a currently in situ red rope sling on a spike (can be backed up with wires). The second can easily lead through at VS level by bridging out to the boulder choke a metre or two below this belay.
