  • HOUSE of KEYS, TUESDAY, 23Rd MARCH 2021
    HOUSE OF KEYS, TUESDAY, 23rd MARCH 2021 5.3. Landlord Registration (Private Housing) Bill 2020 – Consideration of clauses commenced Mr Baker to move. The Speaker: We turn then to the Landlord Bill and on this occasion, to start us off, we will look 2130 at the amendments to the long title. I therefore call on Mr Hooper to move his amendments number 1 and 2. Mr Hooper: Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. As Hon. Members are no doubt aware, I had some significant reservations about this Bill at 2135 Second Reading, and I just would like to place on record my thanks to the Minister, his team and to the drafters for all the work that has gone into the Bill since that Second Reading to produce a long list of what I hope are very comprehensive amendments. I would just like to place on record my thanks really for that engagement. The two amendments that I am going to be moving to start with, amendments number 1 and 2, 2140 amend the long title of the Bill very specifically to allow the inclusion of a landlord’s representative as a concept in the Bill, to allow them to be registered separately. So the long title of the Act would provide for the registration of landlords and landlords’ representatives. The reason for this is that a landlord’s representative can range from a family member or a friend, right the way through to a professional firm like an estate agent. The Bill as originally 2145 drafted tied the representative directly into the landlord’s own registration, which would have made it quite difficult I think to separate out the two in legal or regulatory terms.

  • January 2016 (PDF)
    EARROO / ISSUE 1 | JERREY GEUREE / JANUARY 2016 www.mecvannin.im Robertshaw Pulls Out before Finding the Spot Chris Robertshaw, the former Minister for Policy and Reform noted for disappoint- ingly pulling out ahead of completion, thinks he may now know where things went wrong. Mr Robertshaw had previously indicated that he had evacuated prematurely because other parties involved were taking too long to get there, saying "it was defi- nitely their fault, I mean, other people have told me how good I am, but satisfying these guys seemed impossible". He added "I don't remember hearing any complaints when I was finished with the Sefton, which I assume means everyone was satisfied". With a big election expected to occur in 2016 many have wondered whether a concerned Mr Robertshaw is just saying the things he thinks people want to hear. One reader commented "I think Mr Robertshaw may be worrying about his potential to rise to the expectations of a big election. When I attended the Government's "Big Debate" sessions last year he was obsessed with defending his small government and seemed to get very agitated at even the thought of a big one. Anyway, I figured it's not the size of a man's government that counts but the way he thrusts his policies. I thought he'd at least have the stamina to go for a bit longer when it came to actually performing". Responding to this, Mr Robertshaw said "I'll admit I may have gone soft when con- fronted with the reality of replacing a big government, but the point here is whether my government is running for other people, or is it running for itself.

  • 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

  • Reproductive Health Law and Policy Advisory Group Report Knowledge
    Reproductive Health Law and Policy Advisory Group Report Knowledge Exchange on Abortion Law Reform: The Isle of Man July 2017 1 Introduction The Reproductive Health Law and Policy Advisory Group is a joint initiative between Queen’s University Belfast School of Law, Ulster University School of Criminology, Politics and Social Policy and Manchester Metropolitan University. Its founding members are Dr Fiona Bloomer (UU), Dr Kathryn McNeilly (QUB) and Dr Claire Pierson (MMU), all of whom have extensive research backgrounds in the area of law and policy pertaining to issues of reproductive health. The Advisory Group was established in early 2016 to provide expertise and knowledge on policy and legal matters related to reproductive health; to facilitate discussions and knowledge transfer between academics, policy and law makers, health professionals and stakeholder groups; to provide advice on legal and policy reform. In March 2017 the group undertook a 3-day knowledge exchange visit to the Isle of Man. This was a unique opportunity to engage with politicians, healthcare professionals and activists. The aim of the visit was to share our experiences of examining abortion law reform in Northern Ireland and to learn about the Isle of Man’s current law reform proposals. The report that follows is a summary of our findings both from desk based research and discussions with key stakeholders in the Isle of Man. The report sets out the current law in the Isle of Man, then provides demographic statistics on those travelling for abortion from the Isle of Man and then moves on to consider issues with the current law in practice and proposals for reform.

  • Background Information on Sea Services
    GD 2016/0080 Background Information on Strategic Sea Services November 2016 Department of Infrastructure FOREWORD To the Hon Stephen Rodan, MLC, President of Tynwald, and the Hon Council and Keys in Tynwald assembled. Strategic sea services are one of the most significant influences on the current and future economic and social wellbeing of the people of the Isle of Man. Tynwald recognised the importance of this in July 2016 when it debated strategic sea services and determined that a full economic appraisal be obtained to assess: a) the requirements for a ferry service; b) comparison with other similar ferry services; c) service level requirements; d) vehicle and operational requirements; e) commercial issues including length of contract and other potential models and; f) associated financial issues. Tynwald also determined in that July 2016 debate that: all ownership models should be investigated and a report produced for debate and decision by Tynwald. International economics consultants, Oxera Consulting LLP, were appointed to undertake the independent economic appraisal requested by Tynwald. Park Partners Limited of London had already been appointed by the Department of Infrastructure to provide specialist support on the strategic options for future sea services by evaluating alternative ownership models. I am pleased to present the reports produced by Oxera Consulting LLP and Park Partners Limited.
