Lawrie Hooper weighs in on Standing Orders Committee recommendations
Improving the functions of government committees should be part of 'bigger conversations' according to a Ramsey MHK.
Concerns were raised by a number of Tynwald members after the Standing Orders Committee made multiple recommendations which would see MLCs retain seats on committees whilst elections are ongoing.
If re-elected, they would take back their seat a month after by default.
Lawrie Hooper says Tynwald lacks control over them:
Almost 3,000 take part in Pilates world record attempt at Knockaloe
Ben-my-Chree sailing cancelled due to 'technical issues'
81 'unsafe squishy toys' seized
