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.
