Lawrie Hooper says revealing major initiatives, including an AI development office, at the annual conference undermines parliamentary process
A Ramsey MHK has criticised government for unveiling major announcements at its annual conference before presenting them to Tynwald.
Among the reveals were plans for a National Office for Artificial Intelligence Development and Regulation, and the return of the Food and Drink Festival.
But Lawrie Hooper says key policy decisions should come before Tynwald first.
He believes it's a deliberate strategic choice:
Mountain Road reopens
Patients 'strongly satisfied' with virtual GP pilot
New electrical vehicle training course powers up at UCM
Island to mark the golden anniversary of the Millennium of Tynwald
Onchan Commissioners open 'expressions of interest' for future social housing projects
