    GD 2020/0058 2020/21 1 Programme for Government October 2020 – July 2021 Introduction The Council of Ministers is pleased to bring its revised Programme for Government to Tynwald. The Programme for Government was agreed in Tynwald in January 2017, stating our strategic objectives for the term of our administration and the outcomes we hoped to achieve through it. As we enter the final year of this parliament, the world finds itself in the grip of the COVID-19 pandemic. This and other external factors, such as the prospect of a trade agreement between the UK and the EU, will undoubtedly continue to influence the work of Government in the coming months and years. What the Isle of Man has achieved over the past six months, in the face of COVID-19, has been truly remarkable, especially when compared to our nearest neighbours. The collective response of the people of our Island speaks volumes of the strength of our community and has served to remind us of the qualities that make our Island so special. At the beginning of the pandemic the Council of Ministers suspended the Programme for Government, and any work within it, to bring to bear the complete resources of the public service in the fight against coronavirus as we worked to keep our island and its people safe. Through the pandemic we have seen behaviour changes in society and in Government, and unprecedented times seem to have brought unprecedented ways of working. It is important for the future that we learn from the experiences of COVID and carry forward the positive elements of both what was achieved, and how Government worked together to achieve it.

  • Newsletter from the West of the Island
    Geoffrey Ray Harmer Boot MHK for MHK for Glenfaba & Peel Glenfaba & Peel Minister of Minister of Environment Food Infrastructure & Agriculture (DOI) (DEFA) Tynwald: 01624 685485 Tynwald: 01624 685596 Mobile: 07624 381497 Mobile: 07624 215577 www.geoffreyboot.org Spring 2017 www.rayharmer.im [email protected] [email protected] Glenfaba & Peel Welcome to our first newsletter from the West of the Island. We both gave a commitment during the election to stay in touch, part of that commitment revolved around hard copy newsletters as we are aware that not everyone has access to websites, Facebook and Twitter. Programme for Government One of the most important tasks for any new administration is to put together a Programme for Government for the next five years. In the past this has been a lengthy process, sometimes taking up to 18 months. After the election in September and our appointments to the Council of Ministers, the Chief Minister was determined we echo his sentiments by putting together a programme as quickly as possible but as inclusively as possible. Consultation with all MHKs started almost immediately and there were invitations for participation in the preparation for the programme to interested external parties including businesses. As a result a 100 days after the election the Programme for Government 2016 – 2021 was approved unanimously by Tynwald. The programme is available on this link www.gov.im/media/1354840/ programme-for-government.pdf and it is not our intention to go into great detail in this newsletter but there are three strategic objectives which are overarching aims of the Council of Ministers in the long term and approved by all members.

  • Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man Meet the Rt Hon Penny Mordaunt MP, Before the Next Round of UK-EU Negotiations
    Wednesday, 3 June 2020 Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man meet the Rt Hon Penny Mordaunt MP, before the next round of UK-EU negotiations Jersey’s Minister for External Relations, together with the Chief Ministers of Guernsey and the Isle of Man and Guernsey’s Minister for External Relations, has met the Rt Hon Penny Mordaunt MP, the Paymaster General and Minister at the Cabinet Office responsible for representing the Islands’ interests during the UK-EU negotiations. They met on Monday 1 June to discuss the next round of negotiations being held this week. The work to prepare for the negotiations and for the end of the transition period has continued since the UK left the EU on 31 January 2020. Restrictions in place as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic have meant new ways of working remotely and meeting virtually with UK counterparts. This has maintained the pace of these negotiations throughout the last few months as a priority for the UK and the Islands’ governments. In June the UK and EU will hold a High Level Conference to review progress on the negotiations. This week’s meeting with the Rt Hon Penny Mordaunt MP allowed for discussion before this round of negotiations on matters which could affect Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man. The Minister for External Relations, Senator Ian Gorst, said: “These are complex negotiations and in order to maintain and develop our trading relationships with the EU we have worked closely with counterparts in Guernsey and the Isle of Man. We have shared interests and our close working will strengthen our positions for both these EU negotiations, and those the UK will be having on Free Trade Agreements with the rest of the world.” Deputy St Pier, Chief Minister of Guernsey said: “It has been an exceptionally busy few months for all of our Governments and this looks set to continue as we develop and manage our respective economic recovery strategies.

    Office of The Chief Minister Oik yn Ard-Shirveishagh Hon Howard Quayle MHK Chief Minister DOUGLAS Isle of Man IM1 3PG British Isles Telephone: +44 (0) 1624 685706 Email: [email protected] 29th March 2021 Dear Mr President, Mr Speaker, Honourable Members During the March 2021 Sitting of Tynwald I made a series of commitments. Firstly, in relation to Urgent Question from the Hon. Member for Arbory, Castletown and Malew, Mr Moorhouse. Mr Moorhouse asked a supplementary question on the testing of the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company (‘IOMSPC’) Crew members and if I knew how many crew members had refused a COVID test (Hansard Ref. 330). As I explained in my response to the supplementary question, this is not a about a refusal at the point of test. The Exemption Certificate, issued to non-resident crew members, includes a condition that the IOMSPC crew members must undertake surveillance testing at the beginning and end of their rostered shift cycle. This is a condition of their entry to the Island and failure to comply is an offence. The Direction Notice issued to IOM resident crew members, requires them to undertake surveillance testing so as to be excluded from self-isolation requirements. If a crew member does not agree to the surveillance testing then they would be required to self-isolate for 21 consecutive days from the date of their arrival back to the Island. Failure to comply is an offence. Secondly, I was asked by Honourable Member for Douglas Central, Mr Thomas, how many COVID cases has the IOMSPC has had over the course of the Pandemic.
