Rules, punishments and suspensions could be investigated
An MHK says it's time for politicians to look at their own behaviour.
West Douglas member Chris Thomas will bring a motion to Tynwald next week, calling for the Standards and Members' Interests Committee to reconsider introducing new guidelines for conduct.
It comes in the wake of North Douglas MHK John Houghton's suspension over alleged 'bullying' last month.
Mr. Thomas says he'd like to see stricter rules, codified punishments and powers to 'recall' an election if MHKs act inappropriately.
He believes the time is now:
Ministers to face questions over Minimum Wage rise and VAT
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping later this morning
"How can we prep for this?": Concerns continue to mount over minimum wage rise
Chamber calls for government to co-ordinate its approach to economy
