Two-hour debate on government's management of pandemic
A motion asking for a fresh examination of various aspects of the government’s management of the Covid crisis has received unanimous backing in Tynwald.
Amendments to Douglas Central MHK Chris Thomas's item also passed, including one from Ramsey's Lawrie Hooper asking for a review of the policy on compassionate travel.
The full accepted motion asked for continuing exploration for examining infection risks and also reaffirmed the 'stay safe' principles.
After a debate lasting more than two hours, President Steve Rodan praised members for their contributions:
Former DOI minister expecting new CRHS to be 'over the £70 million mark'
"Rapid review" into bed capacity at Noble's Hospital
Still 'very low risk' of meningitis outbreak on Island
MHK 'disappointed but not surprised' over secondary school delay
