Frustration over lack of progress
An MHK has expressed concern over the pace of parliamentary reform.
Lawrie Hooper this week attempted to have his Tynwald colleagues 'grasp the nettle' by formally accepting three of the recommendations put forward by Lord Robert Lisvane a year ago.
The proposed changes have instead been sent to a select committee for further discussion.
Mr Hooper's motions failed to gather enough support among members.
He says the chance to enact change now risks losing momentum:

'Too early to tell' what caused fire
Firefighting foam may have killed fish in Silverburn River
Additional road closure for TT filming ahead of MGP qualifying
'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
