    EARROO / ISSUE 1 | JERREY GEUREE / JANUARY 2016 www.mecvannin.im Robertshaw Pulls Out before Finding the Spot Chris Robertshaw, the former Minister for Policy and Reform noted for disappoint- ingly pulling out ahead of completion, thinks he may now know where things went wrong. Mr Robertshaw had previously indicated that he had evacuated prematurely because other parties involved were taking too long to get there, saying "it was defi- nitely their fault, I mean, other people have told me how good I am, but satisfying these guys seemed impossible". He added "I don't remember hearing any complaints when I was finished with the Sefton, which I assume means everyone was satisfied". With a big election expected to occur in 2016 many have wondered whether a concerned Mr Robertshaw is just saying the things he thinks people want to hear. One reader commented "I think Mr Robertshaw may be worrying about his potential to rise to the expectations of a big election. When I attended the Government's "Big Debate" sessions last year he was obsessed with defending his small government and seemed to get very agitated at even the thought of a big one. Anyway, I figured it's not the size of a man's government that counts but the way he thrusts his policies. I thought he'd at least have the stamina to go for a bit longer when it came to actually performing". Responding to this, Mr Robertshaw said "I'll admit I may have gone soft when con- fronted with the reality of replacing a big government, but the point here is whether my government is running for other people, or is it running for itself.

    Summary Report Consultation on the draft Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill and Representation of the People Regulations Cabinet Office August 2014 Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill 2014 Consultation Response Report Contents Section Page Number 1.0 Introduction 2 2.0 Background 2 3.0 Overview of responses 3 4.0 Comments on the draft Bill 4 5.0 Comment on the Regulations 12 6.0 Comments outside the remit of the Bill 18 7.0 Next Steps 18 1 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This report provides a response by the Cabinet Office to the consultation on the Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill 2014 and Representation of the People Regulations 2014. 1.2 The intention of the amendment Bill is to ensure key reforms and modernisation of the existing legislation is undertaken in the time available before the 2016 General Election. Although further reform will need to be considered in the future the changes are an important step towards improving transparency and governance of the Island’s election process. 1.3 The main aims of the Isle of Man’s legislation package, on which views were sought, are to: ensure the electoral process is easily understood by returning officers and those who assist in the running of elections, prospective candidates and the electorate; and to update the legislation to introduce the key recommendations from the Independent Panel’s Review (set up as result of the events in connection with the by-election held for the House of Keys constituency for Douglas East in May 2010.) These provisions relate to the registration of political parties and the declaration of candidates’ expenses.

  • (Amendment) Bill 2015 – Second Reading Approved
    4.1. Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill 2015 – Second Reading approved Mr Shimmin to move: That the Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill 2015 be read the second time. The Speaker: We turn to Item 4, Bills for Second Reading. First, the Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill. I call on the mover, the Hon. Member for Douglas West, Mr Shimmin. Mr Shimmin: Thank you, Mr Speaker. Today’s Second Reading of the Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill is an important step towards improving transparency and governance of the Island’s election framework, ensuring that key reforms are in place before the 2016 General Election. The Bill comprises 37 clauses and two schedules, focusing on four new provisions as well as clarifying and modernising current legislation. These provisions introduce a party registration system, limit candidates’ campaign expenses, add requirements relating to donations and place new restrictions on proxy voting. As Hon. Members will recall, in 2010 a review into the rules and processes applying to candidates standing for election was undertaken by an independent panel following the events during that year’s Douglas East by-election. The panel’s recommendations were published with a response from the Council of Ministers Governance Committee as part of a public consultation. The results of the review and the consultation are incorporated into the Representation of the People (Amendment) Bill 2011, which did not complete its passage through this House. The Bill before us today includes reforms attempted in 2011 plus provisions reflecting recommendations on the registration and conduct of political parties, as well as other changes arising from the post-2011 election review.
