The Governor, addressing the Court, said : I have asked you to meet me here this afternoon at a special Tynwald Court, for it is a matter of somewhat grave importance to the Isle of Man. It is with regard to the financial proposals in England. They were, of course, only proposed yesterday, and I happened to hear that some of the proposals would affect the Isle of Man very seriously. I, therefore, sent a telegram to the Home Secretary yesterday, so that I might be prepared to act at once. I telegraphed to him yesterday—" Kindly wire to me, as soon as possible, if any changes are to be made as to the Customs, or in any other way affecting the rev- enue of the Isle of Man. An immediate reply is necessary, before ten to-morrow, at all events, as prompt action must hi: taken if there is any change in the duties." The Home. Secretary will answer that at once ; probably be will write to me. In the meantime I have got this telegram. It was sent to Mr Story from the Customs :—" Tea and .tobacco duties put up by resolution of the House of Commons last night from to-day (Tuesday, fith): tea, 2d added; cigars, 6d; manufactured cavendisli, bd ; other manufactured, 5d; snuff, 5d; and expense in respect of decrease of moisture, leaf, 4c1. These are the only articles of identical rates which are put up. Please give early attention, and let us know what you are doing. I am wiring Collector to set on resolution in advance of your legislation" Increase of Manx Duties. 232 TYNWALD couRT, March 6, 1900. That is the secretary of the Customs of the Isle of Man.. Of course, I was anxious to act im- mediately, because if we do not go alongside with England, and raise our duties here to-day, we shall be interfering with the arrangements made with the Imperial Government some time ago. If you would like to know what the effect of this change will be, of course 1 wilt not commit my• self to any sum, but, roughly, I should think the increase to the'insular Revenue by this addition to the duties will be something like £4,000 a year think it is most important, as I have already pointed out to you, that I should ask you to paw this resolution forthwith, and it will take effect immediately. Mr J. R. Cowell : Might T ask your Excellency. just here--I did not catch any reference to spirits? The Governor: The duty on spirits is not a matter which we need deal with in such a sudden way. It is in our own hands, and it is a matter which will come up for consideration on a future occasion. I am very anxious to get the resolution into the hands of the Customs. The Customs office closes at three o'clock, and these things must he done rapidly. The new duties come into force to-day in England, and I wish, accord- ing to the agreement with ourselves, that they should come into force the same day Mere. Mr J. R, Cowell: I was only asking for in- formation, your Excellency, and if that is so, it seems to me, if the argument is gond that it is urgent that it should be done quickly, that applies with equal force to spirits. The Governor : No, it does not. The spirit duties ore in our own ]•ands, and when the time comes the matter will be carefully considered. promise you that I will carefully consider it, but it is not a thing to be considered in one moment. The Attorney-General: I beg to move a reso- lution as follows :— Resalved, that in lieu of the duties on customs now charged on tobacco and tea removed or im- ported into this isle, there shall be charged and paid from the 6th day of March, 1906, the duties following (that is to say):— Tobatico manufactured, via,:— s. d. Cigars, the pound 5 6 Cav,mtlish or negrohead, the pound„,, 4 4 Cavendish or negrohead manufactured, in band, the pound s 10 Other manufactured tobacco, the pound Increase of Manx Duties. TVN WALT) COURT, March 6, 1900. 233 Snuff, containing more than nibs. of moisture in every 1001bs. weight thereof, the pound .......... ...... 3 7 Snuff, not containing more than 13lbs weight of moisture in every 10011rs weight thereof, the pound 4 4 Tobacco =manufactured, viz.:— Contairung nibs. or more of moisture in every 1001hs. weight thereof, the pound 3 0 Containing less than lOths. weight of moisture in every iOilbs weight there- of, the pound ............. „ 3 4 Tea, the pound 0 6 The figufes given here represent, added the A t I orney-General. what our duties will be with the addition of what is now imposed in England. Just one remark following what his Excellency has said : There is no connection be- tween the matters that are now dealt with and spirits. In the case of tobacco and tea, and, I • think also, light- wines, by an arrangement entered into with the Imperial Government., they collet the duties, and allow us a certain proportion upon the sums collected. On account of that arrangement it is necessary that the duties 'n the Isle of Man should be kept the seine as the duties in England. The argument does not apply to spirits at all. Mr Mylchreest : Does it not apply to beer? The Atiorner-General : Ileer is not the same. The Governor: Will tiny member second the resolution? Mr a. H. Cowell (after a pause): I quite ap- preciate the point you mentioned about the urgency of matters of this kind. At the same time, as far as I am roucerned, I am not going to swallow any proposal of this kind without comprehending it„ and thoroughly understanding where I am going. (Hear, hear.) 1 can well remember on a former occasion, when his Ex- cellency called the Court together hurriedly, to deal with a matter of this description, an addition to the duty on spirits was proposed promptly and carried quickly, the object being, as was stated at the time, to prevent any large quantity of spirits being taken out of bon•I in a hurry, and the consequent loss to the revenue. Now, up to the present moment, his Excellency has not, nor has the Attorney-General explained to mo in a way I can comprehend, why the same action will not be taken by the trader to-day or to- morrow. Supposing it is contemplated hereafter to raise the duty on spirits, what is to yrevent the traders of Douglas to-morrow morning Making Moralize of Manx Duties, 234 TYNWALD COURT, March 6, 1900, a great rush to the bonded stores and clearing all the spirits they are likely to want for the next 12 months? The Governor : The hon. member, I think, is mistaking. I do not propose anything with re- gard to spirits. That is a matter for future con- sideration. It is a question of revenue by-and- bye. Mr J. R. Cowell: Then I take it that the English alteration with regard to the duties on spirits is not a proposal which at present you 'intend to follow? The Governor: If the hon. member will listen to the resolution, tic will see that it affects only things which are in our arrangement with Eng- land, and it is absolutely necessary, unless we wish to have that beneficial arrangement abro- gated, to pass some immediate resolution. I think we should be doing very wrong if we do not keep to our arrangement. Mr J. R. Cowell : I was proceeding to say this. If your Excellency has no intention of following up the English additions to the spirit duties, if you think there is no occasion for that in the Isle of Man, then, of course, the Court will know exactly where it is going; but it is most desirable we should know. If there is to be an increase of the duties to-da•y for reasons of Insular revenue, then it is equally important for us to know to-day—and act upon that knowledge —whether we intend to increase the duties on spirits. The Governor: I thought I made it clear. Mr J. R. Cowell : I am sorry to say you have not. The Governor: I only ask you to follow the English resolution. It is most necessary for our benefit here. It is with regard to tea and other things. The spirit duty is not dealt with at all by the resolution. If it is to be dealt with by- and-bye, it will be dealt with in the usual course. It will be brought before the Tynwald Court, and everything will be explained in due course, but I am not at all sure that it will be necessary. Mr J. R. Cowell : I think, your Excellency, notwithstanding that interruption on your part, I am perfectly justified, with all deliberation, in the course 1 intend to take.

The two important points are—first of all—the Bills Lw signature, in order to obtain the Royal assent, and the second important point is the resolution with regard to the Customs duties.

  • Doing a Good Deed: the Uniqueness of the Manx Deed
    May 2020 Doing a Good Deed: The Uniqueness of the Manx Deed. The Legal Mechanism of the Deed It was said by the English Kings Bench Division in Sharington v Strotton (1564) 1 Plow. 298, 308 that the law of England was that there were two ways of making contracts or agreements. One by words and one in writing. The court opined that because words “are oftentimes spoken by men unadvisedly and without deliberation”, a contract by words alone will not bind without valuable consideration (being a benefit gained or detriment suffered, per Lush J (at 162) in Currie v Misa (1874) LR 10 Ex 153). However, this would not be the case when an agreement was made by deed which would represent an enforceable promise made without valuable consideration due to the formality of the decision to make an accord. The court stated in Sharington v Strotton at [308]: - “For when a man passes a thing by deed, first there is the determination of the mind to do it, and upon that he causes it to be written, which is one part of deliberation, and afterwards he puts his seal to it, which is another part of deliberation, and lastly he delivers the writing as his deed, which is the consummation of his resolution; and by the delivery of the deed from him that makes it to him to whom it is made, he gives his assent to part with the thing contained in the deed to him to whom he delivers the deed, and this delivery is as a ceremony in law, signifying fully his good-will that the thing in the deed should pass from him to the other.” Contracts by deed therefore played a role in the common law to protect the party or parties from imprudent commitments.

  • Jersey & Guernsey Law Review | a Very Particular Remedy: Doleance In
    Jersey & Guernsey Law Review – June 2011 A VERY PARTICULAR REMEDY: DOLEANCE IN THE CROWN DEPENDENCIES Lucy Marsh-Smith This article examines the origin, scope and extent of the Doléance1 remedy in the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, concluding that the remedy has developed on diverse lines, so that the common name gives rise to actions very different in scope when one compares the customary law with Manx common law. 1 In the Guernsey case of Bassington Ltd v HM Procureur,2 Collins, JA, President said— “The inhabitants of Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man have certain very particular remedies each of which is named a Doléance. Both the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man have in the past considered the remedy peculiar to themselves, without apparent knowledge of the existence of a remedy similarly named in the other jurisdiction. Thus the Deemster in Re the Attorney General of the Isle of Man3 considered it was unique to the Isle of Man, and there is one reference to it having been said that it is peculiar to the Channel Islands (see Bentwich—Practice of the Privy Council in Judicial Matters 3rd ed (1937), at p 54). The nature of the remedy and the means by which it is employed may differ. In the Isle of Man and Jersey it is already well established that the local Courts have jurisdiction to hear a Doléance. In Guernsey the position is much less clear.” Doleance in the Isle of Man 2 Before considering the position in the Channel Islands any further it is helpful to set out the main features of the doleance remedy in the Isle of Man, a jurisdiction where one would not expect to find the use of a French term.

Moore’s name appears on the title page to Manx Ballads and Music, the work involved in its compilation and editing was not his alone as he acknowledged within its pages. For starters, he did no collecting himself, drawing instead on the efforts of Henry Bridson in the main, along with Annie Gell, Elizabeth Jane Graves, and John Edward Kelly. The tunes that appeared in harmonised form were prepared by Mary Louisa Wood and Edith Lilian McKnight and overseen by Colin Brown. A number of individuals submitted tunes and texts seemingly from their own recollection, namely Robert Henry Bridson (referred to as Harry Bridson), Thomas Edward Brown, William Cashen, Margaret Frissel Ferrier, Robert Kerruish, Rev. John Kewley, and James Bell Nicholson. Texts were passed to Moore by John Rhys and Karl Roeder. William John Cain edited the Manx of the texts, T.E.

  • England and the Isle of Man
    When Is a Colony Not a Colony? England and The Isle of Man Augur Pearce* Abstract Manx emancipation from English tutelage still falls short of independence. Island courts' and constitutionalists' efforts to reconcile the continuing role of Crown and Parliament with insular aspirations are typified by dicta of the Staff of Government Division in Crookall v Isle of Man HarbourBoard and Re CB Radio Distributors. These cases suggest the Queen legislates for the Island as Lord of Man, successor to its former rulers; whether with Parliament or with Tynwald is secondary, so an Act of either body can repeal inconsistent Acts of the other. This article contests the claim of continuity between former rulers and the Kings of England, also the assumption that there can be no hierarchy between different legislative acts of the one ruler. This article argues that the law considers Man conquered by English arms in 1399, a continuity breach which gave King and Parliament un- fettered law-making power as explained in Calvin's Case and Campbell v Hall. Centuries of government by royal tenants-in-chief do not affect the position after the surrender of their estate. Royal continuance of the former Lords' concessions to Tynwald, and Man's exclusion from the Colonial Laws Validity Act 1865, are both explicable on policy rather than constitutional grounds. I. The Limits to Manx Emancipation The past 150 years have seen a steady emancipation of the Isle of Man from English tutelage. But there remain significant areas in which that emancipation falls short of independence. The United Kingdom Parliament remains (in succession to the Par- liament of England) the Island's supreme legislature.

  • Petitions of Doleance2 and a Significant Body of Case Law
    Judicial Review The Petition of Doleance The procedure on the Isle of Man for challenging or seeking judicial review of an administrative action is by way of a Petition of Doleance. “A petition of doleance is the process by which the High Court exercises its supervisory jurisdiction over the proceedings and decisions of inferior courts, tribunals and other bodies or persons who carry out quasi-judicial functions or who are charged with the performance of public acts and duties.” Per Deemster Kerruish QC1 The Island has well-established jurisprudence in respect of petitions of doleance2 and a significant body of case law. In Re Kerruish3 in 1971 Bingham, JA described the purpose of a Petition of Doleance as— “…to provide within a comparatively compact community a simple and speedy means for the ordinary citizen to obtain redress for injustices which in England would be remedied by orders of habeas corpus, certiorari and the like. The essence of the petition of doleance is that it should be simple and, therefore, unencumbered by legal formality and also speedy so that the cases can be tried quickly.” The often judicially quoted definition of the petition of doleance is to be found in the case of Corkish v Boyd 4 in 1904 where Sir James Gell CR said— “This petition is one of doleance, seeking the relief which in England is obtained by the prerogative writ of certiorari. There is no such writ here, neither have we any of the English prerogative writs such as habeas corpus, mandamus etc. Substantially, however, the relief obtainable by means of these writs is obtained here by a different mode of procedure, namely the petition of doleance, formerly heard in the Court of the Staff of Government Division but, since the passing of the Judicature Act 1883 in (the Chancery Division) of the High Court … The procedure here is entirely different from that in England.
