A new public sector pension scheme has passed its final political hurdle in Tynwald.
The Unified Isle of Man Government Scheme brings together more than a dozen separate schemes for public workers.
Tynwald members received the Council of Ministers' reports and recommendations in the court today (Wednesday).
Negotiations on how the scheme will be brought in are still to come, but it will be enforced from April next year.
Legislative Council member Clare Christian was among a number of speakers who suggested reform was a matter of supreme importance:
Skills Strategy hopes to tackle 'significant' skills shortage
Loganair to remove Saturday service to Birmingham
Trial for Douglas man who denies keying car
Southern Pool board welcomes assurances over site's future
Looneys of Ramsey to close
Future of Belfast flights 'precarious' due to low passenger numbers
