Student to debate in House of Lords

CPA offer funding

The Manx Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association is giving one Manx student the chance to debate politics in the House of Lords.

All Isle of Man university undergraduates currently studying in the UK have been sent applications to the programme.

The successful candidate will sit in the chamber and debate on this year's theme, 'challenges for international relations in the 21st Century'.

Funding will be provided by the Isle of Man CPA.

It's the only occasion where the House of Lords opens it's doors to non-members, with the aim being to provide an educational and enjoyable experience.
