Welcome to Day The Midsummer sitting of Tynwald Court at St John’s is a ceremony with origins more than a thousand years old. Its central feature is the promulgation of new Acts of Tynwald, which is the final stage in the Manx legislative process. The ceremony is in three parts. It begins in the Royal Chapel with a service of worship at 11am. Then the Members of Tynwald and other participants move to Tynwald Hill where the Acts are promulgated and any petitions are brought forward. Finally the Court returns to the Royal Chapel where the Acts are captioned and the Tynwald Honour may be presented.

2 6 th JULY 2015 • TYNWALD The President The Hon Clare Christian BSc was elected as the third President of Tynwald in July 2011, the first woman appointed to this role, succeeding the retiring President Mr N Q Cringle OBE. She presides over sittings of Tynwald in Douglas and the Royal Chapel unless the Lord of Man or a member of the Royal family is present to do so. Madam President has served as a Member of Tynwald for 28 years. The President’s robes are unique in embodying motifs which are significant in Manx culture and history. In the absence of the Lord of Man she along with Mr Speaker, Captions the Acts at the Sitting of Tynwald Court which is held in the Royal Chapel after their promulgation on Tynwald Hill. The Sword of State The Manx Sword of State, seen on the cover of this programme and by long tradition carried before the Island’s ruler or their representative on , is a remarkable artefact dating back to at least the 1400s. Bernadette McCabe has been the official Tynwald Day swordbearer since 1998; she is the first woman in history to carry out the role. It is a few inches shorter than it would have been originally – thanks, it is said, to the fact that at one stage it was used as a poker by persons unknown. It was sent to the British Museum for cleaning in 1871 “having become foul by misusage”. The sword lies on a table in the of the Tynwald Chamber in Douglas during ordinary sittings throughout the rest of the year. The Speaker The Hon Stephen Charles Rodan BSc (Hons) MR Pharm S, Member of the House of Keys for , was elected as Speaker of the House of Keys in December 2006. Mr Rodan was first elected to the House of Keys, as Member for Garff, in 1995. Since then he has held several major Government posts including Minister for Education for five years until his election as Speaker, Minister for Health and Social Security. Prior to becoming a national politician, Mr Rodan served on Laxey Commissioners for four years, and for two of those he was Chairman of that local authority. As Speaker, Mr Rodan is responsible for controlling proceedings of the House of Keys and being its spokesperson and defender of its privileges.

Called to the Manx Bar 1978. Past President IOM Law Society; past Chairman Bank of Ireland (Isle of Man) Limited and past Chairman Hospice Care. In his busy general legal practice was a founder partner in Quinn Kneale Advocates (30 years) and prior to his appointment was an in-house corporate lawyer. His interests include farming, gardening and music making. The Deemsters The primary role on Tynwald Day of the Island’s First and Second Deemsters, or High Court judges, is to promulgate any new Acts which have been passed by Tynwald and received Royal Assent during the previous year. They are invited by the Lieutenant Governor, “Learned Deemsters, I exhort you to proclaim to the people in ancient form such laws as have been enacted during the past year and which have received the Royal Assent”. One of them reads the titles of the Acts in English, the other in Manx Gaelic. The First Deemster and Clerk of the Rolls is Chief Justice of the Island’s High Court of Justice, and in the absence of the Lieutenant Governor acts as his deputy. The first written reference to Deemster can be traced back to the early 1400s but the office of Deemster is probably much older dating back to the Norse Kingdom and the origins of Tynwald in the 10th century.

8 6 th JULY 2015 • TYNWALD The Parish Church of St John the Baptist, known as the Royal Chapel

The earliest reference to a chapel at St John’s dates only from 1557, but it is likely that there was a keeill on the same site at least 1,000 years ago; part of a Runic cross was found here, which can be seen in the porch of the present building. This view of an early 18th century chapel was drawn on the day of its demolition, 19th July 1847. The present Royal Chapel, “decent and convenient for the worship of God and for the meeting of the Tynwald Court” was consecrated on 8th March 1849; a stone-topped wall was built to support the ancient bank around the Processional Way and Tynwald Hill at the same time. Seneschal, Messengers and Security Guards The Seneschal has overall responsibility for the Tynwald precincts and manages the Messengers and Security Guards. The Messengers and Security Guards play a vital role by assisting at every sitting of Tynwald, the House of Keys and the Legislative Council, and with marshalling on Tynwald Day.

Originally a midsummer fair at which livestock would have been traded, it developed over the centuries into a high spot of social life for country people. These days the animals have all disappeared, but well over 160 different stand-holders are likely to be entertaining or displaying their wares on the green beyond the ceremonial walkway throughout the day. Here is a century-old fair on the roadside fairfield.
