Provide two power sockets and if needed space for the TV monitor as well.
For Smart Camera:

Even if your not planing for motorized curtains it better to provide,
5A power socket at the line height of the curtain track

Provide additional 5A sockets in each room for placing devices like Alexa, Google home, Home pod etc.

Place the Occupancy sensor in the middle of the restroom ceiling and away from the exhaust fan to automatically turn off lights when not in use.
Provide 3 wires from the occupancy sensor to the switch board.

Provide a pipe between both the ends of the gate for keeping sensor and lights on the recieving end.
