Allinson pleased with bill progress
A bill which will reform abortion legislation in the Isle of Man has passed another important hurdle.
Yesterday (24 April) it passed through the clauses stage in the House of Keys.
There was much among members debate about the wording of certain sections of the bill, including the issue of safe access or 'buffer' zones outside clinics.
Ramsey MHK Dr Alex Allinson, who brought the bill forward, says sorting out how these areas would work has been key:
Some pubs to stay open for early-hours England match
Thomas Tuchel's side to face-off against co-hosts at 1am
Tynwald to revisit rates bill after the election
Proposals paused following first and second readings
Douglas Council to install temporary play area in Marine Gardens
Local authority says it's waiting for the promenade sea wall to be extended
'Significant work' needed to reduce people entering criminal justice system
Refreshed Criminal Justice Strategy to go to Tynwald
