First Tynwald sitting for Sir Richard Gozney
The Island's new Lieutenant Governor has addressed Tynwald Court for the first time.
This morning Sir Richard Gozney and his wife Diana attended the opening of June Tynwald.
He pointed out that his role is no longer to preside over parliament but said he hoped to contribute to the life of the Island.
Sir Richard started by complementing the Court on the standards it sets:
Ard-Shirveishagh hopes he's given members enough time to consider 'Charter for Change'
Document only published a week before Tynwald
Live video streaming 'significant step' in making parliament more accessible
Public can now watch proceedings online
Treasury: 'Challenging to justify support for heating oil customers'
MHK says Island is 'dangerously close to a Dickens' novel'
Increase of more than 500 patients for mental health services over last 12 months
Waiting list has also climbed from 1,160 to 1,433
