Allinson pleased with bill progress
A bill which will reform abortion legislation in the Isle of Man has passed another important hurdle.
Yesterday (24 April) it passed through the clauses stage in the House of Keys.
There was much among members debate about the wording of certain sections of the bill, including the issue of safe access or 'buffer' zones outside clinics.
Ramsey MHK Dr Alex Allinson, who brought the bill forward, says sorting out how these areas would work has been key:
Tynwald's Auditor General publishes annual report
Cost savings of more than £500,000 have been quoted
Public warned of increased risk of wildfires
More warm and dry weather is forecast
Cocaine, ketamine and cannabis dealer jailed
Peel man admits supplying drugs over 12-month period
Assisted Dying Bill mover pleased as Jersey becomes first place in British Isles to legalise assisted deaths
Chanel Island granted Royal Assent earlier this week
