Follows recent 'upswing' in requests
The Speaker of the House of Keys is clamping down on the number of urgent questions being tabled.
Juan Watterson says it follows a recent ‘upswing’ in requests for immediate information.
This week he made a new ruling which fine-tunes the criteria which a question must fall into.
Mr Watterson says matters must relate to very recent or imminent events or developments:
Ministers 'must hold chief officers to account' over budgeting
Treasury minister faces questions about contingency funds and spending in Tynwald
Over 200 vehicles stopped during Operation UpliftÂ
Five motorists were arrested for drink or drug driving
Tynwald backs first annual update on Autism Strategy
But concerns raised over funding, assessments and lived experience
Tynwald rejects call for new committee to review financial and eGaming regulation
Members instead back a government-framed statement emphasising confidence, stability and readiness for next year’s MONEYVAL assessment.
