Tynwald Management Committee to report back in October
The implementation of a Manx Youth Parliament is a step closer.
A proposal was brought to this month's Tynwald by Tanya August-Hanson MLC, but was amended by a motion from Douglas East MHK Clare Bettison.
The Tynwald Management Committee will determine exactly how to establish it and its workings and report back by October.
Manx student Amy Bennett, who'd written a statement read out by Ms August-Hanson, was present in the public gallery.
Amy says she's excited to see this move forward:
