  • 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.

  • St German's News
    No. 431 January 2016 St German’s News COMMUNITY, WORSHIP, CULTURE Suggested Donation—£1 Epiphany What can I give him? The Angelus Painting by Jean-Francois Millet, ‘The Angelus’ 1859 A farming couple stop their work for a moment to pray the Angelus at dusk. The word Angelus is taken form the Latin words of Greeting in Luke 1.26-27: ‘The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary’. The Latin for Angel is Angelus. The Angelus evolved in about the 12th century with the practice of lay people on hearing the bells of a local monastery in the evening stopping work for a moment and reciting three Hail Mary’s (Luke 1.42). By the 16th century the Angelus was also being said at 6am, 12 noon as well as 6pm. The prayer involves knitting together a number of scriptural passages associated with Christ’s birth (his incarnation). The restored Cathedral chimes now incorporate the Angelus at the beginning of morning prayer at 9.02 am, at 12.02pm (when prayers are said when a chaplain is on duty) and at the beginning of evening prayer 5.32pm. The bells sound in a pattern and are said in conjunction with the following prayer: The Angelus– continued The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary, And she conceived of the Holy Spirit. 3 bells Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with Thee; Blessed art thou among women And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Now and at the hour of our death.

  • Manifesto: of John Hanson Candidate for Malew and Santon, in the House of Keys Election of 2011
    Manifesto: of John Hanson candidate for Malew and Santon, in the House of Keys election of 2011. Helping to give the people “TRUE” Freedom to Flourish Personal details: Age 54, Married to Glenda and living in Santon. I have three sons and a daughter and can often be seen walking in and around our parish and beyond with our family dog Monty. During my travels I come across many like-minded residents, who like myself are both disillusioned and upset with the general direction life on this beautiful Island is taking. I would therefore like to present myself for election in the forthcoming general election, with the aim to protect our life style and encourage a return to more traditional values. History: I have lived on the Island for over forty years during which time I successfully ran a small licensed tourist establishment in Douglas for over twenty years. With my involvement within this business now on an advisory nature I feel that I have the time and commitment necessary to allow me to devote my time and energy to the people of Malew/ Santon and the Island as a whole. The Future: If elected, to help guide the Island to a strong independent future, encompassing a variety of tried and tested fields, such as tourism, finance and farming. To encourage all Island residents to play that vital role within our economy,thereby maintaining pride and respect in the whole Island. KEY POINTS. 1. To encourage Government to examine the need for all future major capital expenditure programs, and if need be offer a system of referendum to the Manx people, ( the Richmond Hill improvement being just one which has caused inconvenience and hardship to users of the A5- our premier road link between Isle of Man Airport and Douglas thus being the gateway to at least 50% of all arrivals to our Island), at the end of the day will it prove to be value of money or just another miscalculation of our needs? 2.To campaign for leaner, fitter Government departments capable of providing the best possible levels of service within the confines of its budget.

  • GRAHAM CREGEEN for Arbory, Castletown & Malewp “Striving to Deliver a Secure Future” Dear Constituent
    House of Keys General Election THURSDAY 22nd SEPTEMBER 2016 VOTE FOR GRAHAM CREGEEN For Arbory, Castletown & MalewP “Striving to deliver A secure future” Dear Constituent It has been a great honour to serve the people of Malew and Santon in Tynwald over the last two terms. At this election the boundaries have changed, this now means that Arbory, Castletown and Malew will be combined and I would ask for your support on the 22 September in striving to deliver a secure future for our Island. I am 54 years old, married to Jacqui and have two sons - Andrew is 20, an apprentice joiner, and Ben is 17 and studying for his A levels. I have lived in the south of the Island all my life and was brought up in a family that proudly served the community, with my father, brother and myself having been members of the Port St Mary Lifeboat and Rushen Emergency Ambulance / St. John’s Ambulance. I have also coached over many years at Malew Football Club and the Southern Amateur Swimming Club. Previously, I worked for and then ran the family business and also taught at the Isle of Man College before joining the Post Office. I was elected as Member of the House of Keys for Malew and Santon in 2006 and 2011. The last administration faced a unique set of challenges and many difficult decisions needed to be made; as you will know I was involved in some of these. Some of these were very tough and uncomfortable decisions, but I sought resolutions where common sense prevailed, focusing on the long-term prosperity of the Isle of Man and greater efficiency in government.

  • 21 Feb 2006 Tynwald Question Paper
    PP26/06 TYNWALD Tinvaal QUESTION PAPER Pabyr Feyshtyn DOUGLAS 21st February 2006 at 10.30 am FOR ORAL ANSWER 1. The Hon Member for Onchan (Mr Karran) to ask the Chief Minister - Can you explain the failure of the Department of Trade and Industry and the Manx Electricity Authority to initiate an immediate and urgent renegotiation of the Bord Gais Agreements despite the fact that the Agreements are obviously inequitable, not in the best interest of the Isle of Man and contravene an Intergovernmental Treaty? 2. The Hon Member for Michael (Mr Cannan) to ask the Chief Minister - What action do you take on receipt of letters sent to you in support of the retention of the title Lieutenant Governor? 3. The Hon Member for Onchan (Mr Karran) to ask the Chief Minister - In view of the fact that apart from the legality of certain loans, the Manx Electricity Authority financial crisis was primarily a result of the failure of Government, will you support me in my stance that the membership of the Select Committee on the Manx Electricity Authority should not include any persons who have held Ministerial Government Office during the period 1997-2006 on the grounds of conflict of interest? TCQ 5150 4. The Hon Member for Onchan (Mr Karran) to ask the Chief Minister - Can you inform this Honourable Court the reason why the Council of Ministers, in 1998, recommended to Tynwald that the Manx Electricity Authority’s plan to install both a cable and power station be adopted without presenting any economic justifications for the proposal, and despite the fact that three independent consultants all advised that Manx electricity consumers could not afford both? 5.

  • PR the Story of the Nativity
    Date: 27th October 2020 Isle of Man Post Office Issues The Story of the Nativity on Christmas Stamps 2020 6 Stamps Share a Collection of Beautifully Presented Artworks Depicting the Religious Story of the Nativity This year’s Isle of Man Post Office Christmas stamps, issued on 30 October, feature scenes and artworks inspired by the story of the Nativity. 2020 marks the 40th anniversary of the consecration of the Cathedral Isle of Man. It is the cathedral church of the Church of England Diocese of Sodor and Man and was made a cathedral by Act of Tynwald in 1980. To commemorate this anniversary the Right Reverend Peter Eagles, Bishop of Sodor and Man kindly provided the issue text for this beautiful stamp collection. Issue Text Author the Rt Revd PA Eagles, Bishop of Sodor and Man, said: "These delightful Christmas stamps point to light and hope. The angel speaks of God’s presence in the world, and the simple shepherds are drawn to God’s light and love. Three Kings worship, representing the nations of the world. The light shines in the darkness, and the Mother cradles the Child in profoundest love. The eternal message of Christmas speaks to us today in these six beautiful designs." Nigel Godfrey, Dean of Cathedral Isle of Man, said: ‘It is good to have a stamp issue released on the 40th birthday of the Island’s Cathedral. The Cathedral was actually built a 100 years earlier to replace the ruined one on St Patrick’s Isle, but the driving force behind it - Bishop Rowley Hill died in office before the necessary legislation was passed by Tynwald, so it simply remained a parish church.
