Call to reinstate meeting public notices
A change in election policy simply hasn’t worked, a Captain of the Parish has told government officials.
Peter Kelly of Onchan was speaking as a review started into the operation and organisation of September’s General Election.
He was the first to give evidence to a newly appointed committee.
Although the media previewed gatherings around the Island, Mr Kelly says a failure of government to advertise requisition meetings via newspaper public notices had a detrimental effect.
