  • 1 Gd 2020/0058
    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.

  • 2016 General Election Statistics Summary
    2016 General Election Results It must be born in mind that, as each voter had two votes, which they may or may not have used, the only sure reflection of a candidate's support is the percentage of the potential vote in the constituency. This transpired to yield the same order of support when expressed as a percentage of the entire electorate This tends to endorse boundary reforms but the fact that Chris Robertshaw (Central Douglas) was elected with 42% of the most popular LOSING candidate's vote, shows that the system is a long way off being right Ordered by result as % of electorate Robertshaw Name Votes % of votes cast % of electorate Result Factor Dr Alex Allinson 2946 53.19 % 51.45 % Elected 0.22 Juan Watterson 2087 36.19 % 38.32 % Elected 0.30 Ray Harmer 2195 41.91 % 37.29 % Elected 0.31 Alf Cannan 1736 42.25 % 35.54 % Elected 0.32 Martyn Perkins 1767 36.35 % 34.86 % Elected 0.33 Tim Baker 1571 38.23 % 32.17 % Elected 0.36 Chris Thomas 1571 37.31 % 32.13 % Elected 0.36 Geoffrey Boot 1805 34.46 % 30.67 % Elected 0.37 Bill Shimmins 1357 33.54 % 30.53 % Elected 0.38 David Ashford 1219 32.07 % 27.79 % Elected 0.41 Carlos Phillips 1331 32.39 % 27.25 % 0.42 Howard Quayle 1205 29.78 % 27.11 % Elected 0.42 Ralph Peake 1177 30.97 % 26.84 % Elected 0.43 Lawrie Hooper 1471 26.56 % 25.69 % Elected 0.45 Rob Callister 1272 28.92 % 25.46 % Elected 0.45 Kate Beecroft 1134 36.01 % 25.22 % Elected 0.45 Daphne Caine 1270 26.13 % 25.05 % Elected 0.46 Andrew Smith 1247 25.65 % 24.6 % 0.47 Paul Craine 1090 26.94 % 24.52 % 0.47 Laurence Skelly 1212 21.02

  • Hon. Geoffrey Boot MHK Minister Department of Environment Food Agriculture Member of the House of Keys for Glenfaba & Peel Member of Isle of Man Parliament Tynwald
    From: [Name supplied] on behalf of Boot, Geoffrey (MHK) <[email protected]> Sent: 03 March 2020 16:55 To: Kate Costain Cc: All Tynwald Members and Contacts; [Name supplied] Subject: The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged Dear Ms Costain, At the January sitting of Tynwald I committed to provide a further response in relation to an Exclusive Economic Zone, I can advise as follows: The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of a State is provided for under the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) which the UK ratified in 1997 and which was extended to the Isle of Man at that time. The EEZ extends from the baselines out to (no more than) 200 miles. Amongst other rights, in the exclusive economic zone, the coastal State has “sovereign rights for the purpose of exploring and exploiting, conserving and managing the natural resources, whether living or non-living, of the waters superjacent to the seabed and of the seabed and its subsoil, and with regard to other activities for the economic exploitation and exploration of the zone, such as the production of energy from the water, currents and winds” The UK has a right to an EEZ under UNCLOS because it is a sovereign (coastal) Contracting State Party. As far as international law is concerned, we, the Channel Islands and Overseas Territories are part of the UK State Party. We have no separate right to an EEZ under UNCLOS. Therefore, at this time, no further consideration is being given to pursuing an EEZ.

    Isle of Man Branch Report of the Chairman of the Branch Executive Committee for the period January 2017 to December 2017 Introduction 1. The aims of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association are to promote knowledge of the constitutional, legislative, economic, social and cultural aspects of parliamentary democracy. It does this among other things by arranging Commonwealth Parliamentary Conferences, and other conferences, seminars, meetings and study groups; and by promoting visits between Members of the Branches of the Association. 2. This year saw the Isle of Man celebrate the 150th anniversary of the first popular election of the House of Keys, previously a self-elected body. 1867 was a date of pivotal significance in the advancement of Manx parliamentary democracy and a number of events took place to celebrate this anniversary in Manx political history. Farewells 3. 2017 saw the departure of just one CPA member: Mr Tony Wild was a member of the Legislative Council from 2011 to 2017 and an active member of the Isle of Man Branch. He represented the Isle of Man at regional conferences in Scotland in 2012 and the Falkland Islands in 2013, and attended a study visit to Westminster in 2012. On-Island activities in 2017 4.
