Emergency powers were a fait accompli, says Barber
The moving of certain emergency powers through this session of Tynwald has led one member to describe them as "fait accompli", or a done deal.
Clare Barber criticised the way members seemed to have been kept away from some of the decision making over the summer months.
She said it had been a subject of deep concern for herself and other colleagues:

Manxman sailing cancelled following late arrival into Douglas
Calls for 'transitional protections' for migrants on five-year immigration path
'No decisions have been made' over future of Ballabeg Methodist Church
Manxman's departure to Heysham delayed
