Measures brought in to abide by social distancing rules
The Speaker of the House of Keys says it's only right that Tynwald is exploring the idea of 'virtual' sittings, given government's advice on social distancing and self-isolation.
Juan Watterson currently serves as Chairman of the Standing Orders Committee, and Tynwald Management Committee.
He says it's important that parliament is able to maximise the numbers of members participating in debates, and to avoid perceptions of hypocrisy:
Storm Chandra: Island braces for disruption
We're told to expect severe to gale force winds, rain, coastal overtopping and sleet/snow
DHA to consider applicability of UK policing reforms on IOM
Officers in England and Wales could include 'licences' for officers to be able to continue working
Dealer who ran from police in his underpants jailed
Cocaine with a street value of more than £12,500 found
Yellow weather warning issued as Storm Chandra heads our way
East or southeast winds could reach 55-65mph
