Follows recent 'upswing' in requests
The Speaker of the House of Keys is clamping down on the number of urgent questions being tabled.
Juan Watterson says it follows a recent ‘upswing’ in requests for immediate information.
This week he made a new ruling which fine-tunes the criteria which a question must fall into.
Mr Watterson says matters must relate to very recent or imminent events or developments:
Jail for man who tried to gouge a police officer's eyes out
35-year-old said he knew he'd be jailed so 'might as well make it worthwhile'
Response to census "exceptionally good" so far, says minister
Ashford says more than half of returns already received
Rushen MHK calls for progress on 20mph zones in south
Former DoI minister claims constituents still want to see limits reduced
Man caught with indecent images of children spared jail
39-year-old handed suspended sentence
