On last week’s Perspective the Treasury Minister made a valiant attempt to defend the Isle of Man Government’s Tax Strategy. The Strategy was presented to Tynwald this week, not for approval but merely to be received, but even that modest objective came close to being derailed by an amendment from David Ashford. On Perspective we hear from several disgruntled Tynwald members who had hoped for much more in the strategy. We also hear why Tynwald members didn’t think that it was necessary for international standards to be applied to the size of Keys constituencies. Tynwald was certainly sailing through troubled waters this week.
