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:
Government 'will intervene in air market if necessary'
Tynwald to consider new air policy
Politicians 'should keep promises on public spending', says MHK
Budget committee to report back by end of February 2026
Mountain Road and Sloc remain shut as snow hits the hills
Most other roads 'clear or passable with care' according to police
Trump return means Island needs to be 'looking over its shoulder'
Former commissioner says tax controls and gaming sector could be impacted by incoming US president
