Length of Tynwald reccess questioned
Shortening politicians' summer recess would improve the quality of debate, according to one MHK.
Tynwald sits for the first time since July next week and Middle member Bill Shimmins is hoping for support for a motion to reduce the length of the summer break.
As it stands, the Manx parliament doesn't sit in August and September.
But Mr Shimmins believes this needs to change:
'Divisive' clause five removed from new local authority legislation
New law will improve transparency and update bylaw procedures
Campaigner urges Island to pilot recreational cannabis scheme
Charlotte Caldwell believes there is political support for a new approach to cannabis
Funding model 'constraining' ability to tackle heritage 'critical maintenance backlog'
MNH outlines issues with Treasury support
Ramsey Commissioners appeal for help after fly tipping incident
Any information received 'will be treated with the strictest confidence'
