Allinson pleased with bill progress
A bill which will reform abortion legislation in the Isle of Man has passed another important hurdle.
Yesterday (24 April) it passed through the clauses stage in the House of Keys.
There was much among members debate about the wording of certain sections of the bill, including the issue of safe access or 'buffer' zones outside clinics.
Ramsey MHK Dr Alex Allinson, who brought the bill forward, says sorting out how these areas would work has been key:
'Realigning' Manx Care mandate 'not austerity', says chief minister
However, the former health minister believes it can't be seen in any other way
Public Services Commission in breach of law by failing to produce annual reports
MHKs are expected to probe the Chair of the PSC about the non-compliance
Finance Isle of Man publishes 'Sustainable Finance Roadmap'
Sets out aims to grow industry over next two years
DoI accepts Castletown Commissioners request for permanent closure of Market Square
It was on the agenda for the local authority's November board meeting
