\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\thispagestyle{empty}}
in ERT *before* the TOC inset.

No, it's no bug (maybe an unimplemented feature).

To change this behavior you'll need modify the chapter page style or if you only want to change the look of the toc then there are latex packages for this. You can search around on ctan.org, I think the package I would use is tocloft, which is specifically written for modification of the toc, lof, and lot. I'm sure there are other packages to, but this is the package I used to modify the toc for my thesis. Good Luck Cheers, Bob

I'd already tried that. It ought to work but even when I set the page
style to be "empty" it still prints the page number on the first page of
the contents list.
I'm wondering if this is a bug. The only solution I can see is to copy
the whole contents list out as a normal page and use that.

Set the page style to be "empty" in the document dialogue. Then, at the
beginning of your main text, reset the pagestyle using an ERT box.

No, I was talking about the page number at the bottom of the Table of
Contents, not the content. But, as a matter of interest, I tried
altering the numbering you mention and it didn't make any difference to
anything as far as I can see.

From LyX menu:
Document->Settings->Numbering&TOC
Set numbering as appropriate.
