Tynwald issues its first annual report

Anybody who has ever wondered exactly what Tynwald does is being given the chance to find out.

The court has issued its first ever report explaining the work of the legislature over the last year, giving background on its structure and functions.

Annual reports are already issued by the government, departments, boards and committees, but this document covers all aspects of the Island's parliament.

Speaker of the House of Keys Steve Rodan explains why the report was produced (play attached audio file):
