Lawrie Hooper says revealing major initiatives, including an AI development office, at the annual conference undermines parliamentary process
A Ramsey MHK has criticised government for unveiling major announcements at its annual conference before presenting them to Tynwald.
Among the reveals were plans for a National Office for Artificial Intelligence Development and Regulation, and the return of the Food and Drink Festival.
But Lawrie Hooper says key policy decisions should come before Tynwald first.
He believes it's a deliberate strategic choice:
Fenella footbridge due to reopen to public this week
Driving ban for man who collided with Manx Electric Railway pylon
Observe seal pups from a distance to give them the best chance of survival
‘Little Cooper’ finally finds his forever home
