Cretney calls for 'sensible compromise'
A Member of the Legislative Council has called for 'sensible compromise' over proposed changes to government departments.
Speaking ahead of today's Tynwald debate on the Lisvane report, David Cretney says some branches need more political members than others to fulfil operations effectively.
The report contains eleven recommendations designed to improve the function of the Manx parliament, one of which is limiting the memberships to one MHK per department.
Mr Cretney says in some cases, this wouldn't work:
'No change to hand baggage policy' says Steam Packet
Jail for man who tried to gouge a police officer's eyes out
Response to census "exceptionally good" so far, says minister
Rushen MHK calls for progress on 20mph zones in south
