MLC urges Government not to tune out criminal justice strategy

Little progress made since December 2012

An MLC insists the Isle of Man Government must not "tune out" plans to improve the criminal justice system.

A strategy with seven aims was approved in December 2012, but a report by the Constitutional and Legal Affairs and Justice Committee received at this month's Tynwald sitting found there had been little progress since then.

Jane Poole-Wilson MLC, who chairs the committee, described the lack of progress as disappointing, and wants to see government departments working together more closely.

She says there are many aspects to consider.
