Watterson puts political colleagues on notice of 'contentious' legislation
Potential changes to work permit legislation on the Isle of Man need ‘further scrutiny’ and have been dubbed ‘contentious’.
The Speaker of the House of Keys has activated a rarely used Tynwald protocol in a bid to ensure politicians properly assess the legislation.
In Tynwald this month the enterprise minister will try and gain support for a temporary suspension of work permits.
But Juan Watterson has put his political colleagues on notice that they need to carefully consider the idea:
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping on Tuesday
School leaders’ union claims members’ concerns ‘ignored’ amid Tynwald whistleblowing inquiry
Lord Street development granted planning permission
No Ireland sailings for Paddy's Day
Doctors claim 'critical shortfall' in hospital beds is posing 'direct risk' to life
