Hooper challenges government to reconsider approach
Tynwald has agreed a 'robust and speedy system of genomic testing is vital in the fight against' Covid-19.
Members voted unanimously to support a motion by Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper, following a debate on the issue.
Tests are currently sequenced in Liverpool despite an offer from a Manx company to do them on Island for free.
In a lengthy debate, Mr Hooper called for government to learn from previous experiences:
Doctors accept three-year pay offer
BMA says the deal ends its dispute with Manx Care
Seven acts promulgated in final Tynwald Day ceremony before election
Campaigners present petitions for redress of grievance in St John's
Sharp rise in data breaches on Island, says Information Commissioner's Office
Around 31,600 people thought to have been affected in 2025/26 year
Footage circulating on social media 'now an active investigation'
'We understand that the video is already in the public domain, but we are asking people not to speculate'
