More calls to protect architecture
An MLC says action needs to be taken over reform to the planning system.
It's after Charles Guard's 2015 Tynwald Day petition calling for the greater protection of historic buildings failed to carry - two years after it was lodged.
David Cretney attempted unsuccessfully to form a committee on the matter when Tynwald sat last Tuesday (18 July).
The minister in charge, Geoffrey Boot, told colleagues DEFA was already looking into reforming the planning system.
Mr Cretney admits progress has been slow so far:
New mortgage option now available for Manx first-time buyers
Legislative Council edges closer to decision on Bishop's voting powers
No active plans to improve or relocate TT access road
Mountain Road closed for fuel spill clean-up
