1. Swearing-In of New Members Swearing-In of the New 1. Swearing-in of new Members Swearing-in of the new Member for Glenfaba, Mr Geoffrey George Boot The Speaker: Hon. Members, the only Item on our Order Paper this morning is the swearing-in of the new Members of the House of Keys for Glenfaba and Peel. I call on the Secretary of the House to bring forward His Honour the First Deemster and Clerk of the Rolls and the Chief Registrar. The Secretary: Members of the public, please rise. The Secretary conducted the First Deemster and Clerk of the Rolls and the Chief Registrar into the Chamber. The Speaker: Members of the public, please be seated. I now call upon the Secretary of the House to accompany the sponsors, the Hon. Member for Michael, Mr Cannan and the Hon. Member for Douglas North, Mr Peake, to bring forward the new Member of the House of Keys for Glenfaba. Mr Boot was conducted to the Chief Registrar’s desk. The First Deemster (His Honour David Doyle): There are two oaths this morning: there is the Oath of Allegiance and then the Oath administered to elected Members of the House of Keys. Are you content to take the Oath of Allegiance and are you content to have the Oath administered to elected Members of the House of Keys administered to you? Mr Boot: Yes, thank you. Tynwald 20/10/2015 The First Deemster: If you could take the book in your hand in respect of the Oath of Allegiance if you could read the words on the card. It is ‘I’, your full name and all the words on the card, please. Mr Boot took the Oath of Allegiance as follows: I, Geoffrey Boot, do swear by Almighty God that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her heirs and successors, so help me God. The First Deemster: Thank you very much. I now turn to the Oath administered to elected Members of the House of Keys and I administer that Oath to you, Mr Boot, as follows: Her Majesty’s counsel, your fellows’ and your own you shall not reveal. You shall use your best endeavours to maintain the ancient laws and customs of this Isle. You shall justly and truly deliver your opinion and do right in all matters which shall be put unto you, without favour or affection, affinity or consanguinity, love or fear, reward or gain, or for any hope thereof, but in all things you shall deal uprightly and justly and do wrong to no man, so help you God and by the contents of this book. In a moment I will invite Mr Boot to sign an entry in the Liber Juramentorum, the public records of this Island, and that entry reads as follows: At Douglas, 20th October 2015: On this day the Oath of Allegiance and the Oath of Elected Member of the House of Keys were administered to and taken by Geoffrey Boot, a Member of the House of Keys, he having been elected on 10th September 2015 under the writ issued by His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor on 30th July 2015.

The Secretary: Put your signature there. Thank you very much. Mr Harmer signed the record of Standing Orders. The Speaker: Congratulations, Mr Harmer. I now present you with your own copy of our Standing Orders. I call on the sponsors to escort Mr Harmer to his place in the House. Mr Harmer was escorted to his seat. Welcome to new Members The Speaker: Mr Boot and Mr Harmer, may I welcome you to the House of Keys in your capacities as the new Hon. Members for the constituencies of Glenfaba and Peel respectively, and congratulate you on your election to the House by the people of your constituency. They have placed great confidence and faith in you to represent their interests, and indeed the interests of the whole Island, fairly and honourably. I have no doubt you will carry out your duties and responsibilities to your constituents and to this House to the highest standards of integrity and that you will ensure that the people of your constituency and the Island as a whole are served to the best of your ability in a fair, open and transparent manner. The prime task of this House is to legislate on behalf of the people of the Isle of Man. Like the countless men and women who were here before us, we are in this place to persuade, to argue and debate the laws of the land by which we all live. This will give you great satisfaction, but undoubtedly bring challenge, frustration and disappointment in equal measure, but you will bring to the benefit of this forum, I am confident, your own particular experience of commerce and public life in the Isle of Man. As an elected representative of the people, I can guarantee you will face pressures like no other; strength of resolution will certainly be required to make the right and true decisions.

  • 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.

  • Rule of Law : the Backbone of Economic Growth
    Rule of law : the backbone of economic growth (A lecture delivered by Deemster David Doyle at the Oxford Union on 17 July 2014 as part of the Small Countries Financial Management Programme) Introduction “By this Book and the Holy Contents thereof and by the wonderful Works that GOD hath miraculously wrought in Heaven above and in the Earth beneath in Six Days and Seven Nights; I David Charles Doyle do swear that I will without respect of favour or friendship, love or gain, consanguinity or affinity, envy or malice, execute the Laws of this Isle justly betwixt Our Sovereign LADY THE QUEEN and Her Subjects within this Isle, and betwixt Party and Party as indifferently as the Herring Backbone doth lie in the midst of the Fish. So help me God. And by the Contents of this Book” That was the judicial oath I first took in 2003 when I was appointed Second Deemster and again in 2010 when I was appointed First Deemster. I am sharing it with you this evening because it embodies the essentials of the rule of law. Lord Hope, the former Deputy President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, was kind enough to refer to the Manx judicial oath in the chapter he contributed to Judge and Jurist Essays in Memory of Lord Rodger of Earlsferry (2013 Oxford University Press) at pages 75-76. Justice must be delivered according to the law, without surrendering to any improper influences and delivering equal treatment to everybody, “without respect of favour or friendship, love or gain, consanguinity or affinity, envy or malice”.

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
