Would legislative sittings be shorter if House of Keys and Tynwald questions weren't broadcast on Manx Radio?
East Douglas MHK Phil Braidwood thinks so, pointing out that order papers for both sittings used to be far shorter before they were put live to air.
Mr Braidwood (pictured) understands some politicians feel they need to be heard asking questions on behalf of their constituents.
But he feels some of the issues raised could be dealt with in a much more low-key way:
'Bleak future' for Manx businesses if people don't shop local
Declining amount of food production 'quite frightening'
Charity continuing to provide support to family of murdered teenager
'Significant progress' on Manxman repairs over the last week
