Legislative Council sittings to revert to mornings


Meetings of the Isle of Man parliament’s upper branch will revert to mornings from next week.

Legislative Council gatherings had moved to the afternoon as part of a trial to avoid a clash with the House of Keys.

However, the Clerk of Tynwald’s Office said holding them at 14:30 BST had been only “partially successful” and sessions would start at 10:00 BST again instead.

It means the start time for meetings of both branches of parliament and the combined sittings of Tynwald will once again be aligned.

The Legislative Council has 11 chosen members and its primary role is to revise legislation passed by the directly elected members of the House of Keys.
