MHK wants 'clear message' from public
An MHK is aiming for the Manx public to decide whether or not members of the Legislative Council should be popularly elected.
South Douglas member Bill Malarkey wants a referendum held on the day of the Manx general election in September.
He'll bring a motion before Tynwald next week (16 February).
Mr Malarkey acknowledges there have been many attempts at reforming parliament's upper chamber, none of which have been successful.
Hoewever, he thinks a referendum would send a clear message to politicians:
IOM Medical Society gives backing to Tynwald amendment
More than 2,400 pupil suspension days across secondary schools in 23/24
Douglas man faces GBH charge
MHK wants Island to adopt health recruitment Code of Practice
