Penang State Legislative Assembly has undertaken a RM1.5 million facelift at its building, as part of the Second Meeting of the Fourth Session of the 15th Penang State Legislative Assembly. Speaker Datuk Seri Law Choo Kiang announced the improvements to both the interior and exterior, including a structural inspection and roof maintenance.

The assembly now features a lactation room for breastfeeding mothers, a more comfortable staff rest area, and an upgraded media area. The State Assembly Building Gallery has been renamed 'Warisan Visual Terukir' to display the history and contributions of Penang State Assemblymen since 1959. A Special Officers' Room, equipped with workspaces and audio-visual facilities, has also been added.

The upgraded State Assembly Meeting Room can accommodate up to 25 people. Post-sitting, further upgrades will include improvements to the disabled-friendly toilet and the general storeroom.
