Education Minister says parliament needs to be flexible
Tynwald needs to be flexible to allow members to meet in person or virtually.
That's from Education Minister Dr Alex Allinson, who said he wouldn't support a virtual sitting of the Island's parliament this month.
Initially, plans for proceedings to take place online were announced, before a hybrid solution was found, giving members a choice.
Dr Allinson told Manx Radio measures could be put in place to mitigate the risk in the chamber:
Steam Packet urged to be more 'transparent' over Manxman issues
Government needs to 'break the cycle' of child poverty on Island
Proportion on waiting lists likely higher than England
Onchan Commissioners 'disappointed' at village post office closure
