REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS OF HOUSE OF KEYS Douglas, Tuesday, 24th November 1998 at 10.00 a.m. Present: Isle of Man Government to run the Isle of Man Steam The Speaker (the Hon N Q Cringle) (Rushen); Packet Company, nor, I do not believe, is it my place to be Mr L I Singer and Hon A R Bell (Ramsey); Hon the spokesman for the company, but as I understand the R E Quine OBE (Ayre); Mr J D Q Cannan (Michael); situation from the Steam Packet, the figures quoted in the Hon H Hannan (Peel); Mr W A Gilbey (Glenfaba); hon. member's question are incorrect and the company Mr S C Rodan (Garff); Hon D North (Middle); remains confident of its ability to maintain its services to Hon R K Corkill and Mr G T Cannell (Onchan); and from the Island. Messrs J R Houghton and R W Henderson (Douglas North); Hon D C Cretney and Mr A C Duggan (Douglas Mr Singer: Mr Speaker, could I ask the Chief Minister, South); Mr R P Braidwood and Mrs B J Cannell (Douglas would you not agree, however, that reliance on what you East); Messrs J P Shimmin and A F Downie (Douglas might call a fair-weather vessel in the winter on the Irish West); Hon J A Brown (Castletown); Hon D J Gelling Sea is proving to be either extremely poor professional (Malew and Santon); Sir Miles Walker CBE LLD (hc), judgement or a could-not-care-less attitude to the people and Mrs P M Crowe (Rushen); with Prof T StJ N Bates, of this Island who have little choice but to rely on the Steam Secretary of the House. Packet's policy for providing what is becoming a poor- quality service with the SeaCat? The Chaplain took the prayers. Mr Gelling: Well, Mr Speaker, again from figures that I have gleaned I have found that in fact the significant Leave of Absence wave height exceeds three metres less than 10 per cent on average during the winter and that the Steam Packet has The Speaker: Hon. members, the member for Onchan, had 96.8 per cent reliability with its fast craft up to the end Mr Karran, has permission for leave of absence this of October and in so doing with the fast craft they have morning. been able to put on additional services, and I am again informed that this has increased its passenger carrying by 17 per cent since 1996 and vehicle carrying by 48 per cent. So basically what I am saying from the figures that I have Irish Sea Sailings — Cancellations been given is that it would appear that they are carrying — Question by Mr Singer more vehicles, carrying more passengers and of course providing more services. The Speaker: So we turn to our order paper and we commence with the questions. I call upon the hon. member Mrs Cannell: Mr Speaker, is the Chief Minister aware for Ramsey, Mr Singer. that the deputy leader of Liverpool City Council described the SeaCat service as a humiliation to that city and does Mr Singer: Thank you, Mr Speaker. I wish to ask the he not think that a similar unreliable service to the Isle of Chief Minister: Man may also be a humiliation to this nation and cause irreversible damage to our reputation as a tourist In view of the fact that 56 out of a total of 120 destination? scheduled Irish Sea sailings by the SuperSeaCat II in October were cancelled due to the wave height being over The Speaker: Chief Minister, we are getting very only three metres, are you confident that the Lady of Mann can loosely connected to the question but I leave you to cope adequately with the likely level of such cancellations respond, sir. of SeaCat journeys to both the Isle of Man and Dublin this winter? Mr Gelling: I am not aware of the gentleman or lady in Liverpool and the statement but I would think perhaps that The Speaker: I call upon the Chief Minister to reply. he could be referring to the fact of what Liverpool used to be and the huge ships that used to be in the Mersey and I Mr Gelling: Yes, Mr Speaker, at the outset I think I suppose the SeaCat is only a very small craft. But the thing should make it clear that it is not part of the function of the is we were aware of what the fast craft was going to do, Leave of Absence Irish Sea Sailings — Cancellations — Question by Mr Singer K116 HOUSE OF KEYS, TUESDAY, 24th NOVEMBER 1998 we were aware of its limitations, but the thing that was approach to passenger care is unacceptable and attractive was the 21/2-hour passage journey which was will not be tolerated? what was being demanded. So therefore before I would say that we could classify it as poor, I think they have put The Speaker: Again I call upon the Chief Minister, Mr additional services on which appear to be actually good Gelling, to reply. for the Isle of Man. Mr Gelling: Mr Speaker, on this particular question, Mr Downie: Mr Speaker, I would like to ask the Chief again I understand the situation from the Steam Packet Minister is he aware that the Lady of Mann also provides Company that the first point in the question is not accurate back-up for the Liverpool-Dublin SeaCat service and in and therefore the second point does not arise. the event that the Ben my Chree should have to go off- service, it is hardly likely that there could be no back-up Mr Singer: Mr Speaker, is the Chief Minister aware of vessel available for the Isle of Man routes and is he happy all the details in the letter that I passed on to him and whilst with that situation? I know that one of the details, where the person said they slept outside, they actually slept in a room with no heat, Mr Gelling: Yes, Mr Speaker, as I have said the wave otherwise I am told and I understand that the letter was height over three metres is under 10 per cent per annum, accurate, and would you agree with me that the treatment and I know the Lady of Mann is the back-up for that service of passengers arriving at Heysham must be improved, so I would say it would be very unusual if the circumstances particularly for those on foot because they are likely to so were created that in fact the Lady of Mann would be arrive early, they are in need of food and warmth, and when wanted on both routes because it is there as a stand-by, but there is a cancellation of unknown length, booked I am aware that it is for a stand-by on the Dublin route as passengers must be accommodated in hotels and not well. expected to make their own arrangements at 12 o'clock in the morning in a place that is far out from anywhere else?

Executive summary What is this Consultation Paper about? Following the Global Financial Crisis which erupted in 2007, various governments and international standard setting agencies have made significant advances in developing the legal, policy and operational frameworks necessary to ensure that future bank failures i) take place in an orderly fashion and ii) impose costs on the creditors and shareholders of the failed firm (through ‘bail-in’), as opposed to imposing costs on taxpayers (through ‘bail-out’). The Financial Stability Board has articulated a set of ‘Key Attributes of Effective Resolution Regimes for Financial Institutions’1, endorsed by the G20 Governments, which have since informed the development of Bank Recovery and Resolution (‘BRR’) regimes in many countries. The aims of a BRR regime are to ensure the continuation of critical banking functions, to protect covered depositors and client assets, to avoid negative effects on financial and economic stability and to minimise reliance on public financial support to failing

The word “map” is always associated with geography and used by teachers to show the parts of Great I Britain and their capitals. But at the same time the map is a great source of activities challenging and appealing to the students. I tried some of them in different groups of students from elementary level up to upper$intermediate. Activity 1 The aim of this activity is to enable students to find the isles on which The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated. The students look at the map and the teacher gives the key sentence: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on the British Isles… What other isles can you find? All of them belong to the UK. For further practice you can choose one or two islands to find more information. You can also attract your students attention to the pronunciation, transcription and the use of articles with geographical names. Activity 2 You can choose one for further practice, for example the Isle of Man. I tried “gap filling exercise”, it’s a pair work. Students ask questions to find information about the Isle of Man.

  • It Is the Policy of the Isle of Man Government to Maintain
    Explanatory Memorandum for Tynwald Members Issued by the Treasury To The Hon Stephen Rodan MLC, President of Tynwald and the Hon Council and Keys in Tynwald assembled Tynwald – June 2021 1. TITLE OF MEASURE The Global Anti-Corruption Sanctions (Isle of Man) Order 2021 2. CHANGES IN POLICY The Isle of Man Government’s policy in relation to sanctions: “It is the policy of the Isle of Man Government to maintain the implementation of international sanctions measures in the Isle of Man in line with such measures as have effect in the United Kingdom from time to time.” The policy was revised in July 2019 in part to align more closely with United Kingdom policy on sanctions, as a consequence of the United Kingdom’s departure from the European Union. 3. EFFECTS OF THE MEASURES The Global Anti-Corruption Sanctions (Isle of Man) Order 2021 (of UK Parliament), an Order in Council (the “modified Regulations”), extends, with modifications, the Global Anti-Corruption Sanctions Regulations 2021 (of UK Parliament) (“the Global Anti- corruption Regulations”) to the Isle of Man as amended from time to time, along with 3 specific sections of the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (“the Sanctions Act”) so that the Global Anti-corruption Regulations operate correctly in the Isle of Man context. The Global Anti-Corruption Regulations were made under Part 1 of the Sanctions Act to establish a sanctions regime for the purpose of preventing and combatting serious corruption. The Global Anti-Corruption Regulations, as modified and extended to the Isle of Man by this Order (“the modified Regulations”), provide that a person designated by the Secretary of State for being, or having been, involved in such activities, is a designated person for the purposes of the modified Regulations.

  • Mount Murray Report
    16. THE COMPLIANCE ISSUE i) Introduction 16.1 In the last sub-section of our account of government actions following Professor Crow’s Report, we reported on deficiencies of action in the current failure to recognise or to accept the need for ensurance of compliance with laid down procedures. In this section we take this important matter further. 16.2 In 1991 the procedures for the receipt and processing, consideration and determination of planning applications by the Department of Local Government and the Environment were rudimentary and rarely documented. 16.3 The irregularities which occurred in respect of the Mount Murray development appear to have arisen for reasons which include the shortcomings of procedures, the failures of staff of the planning office, the failures of Planning Committee, and the absence of credible mechanisms to devise proper procedures to deter such failures and/or to identify and correct those which occurred. 16.4 Accordingly, we have given careful consideration to the issues involving the proper regulation of planning applications and their determination by the Planning Committee and to the enforcement of compliance with such regulatory procedures as are introduced. 16.5 We make specific recommendations in section 19 in respect of many of the matters of concern which we raise in this particular section. ii) Corporate Approach 16.6 In a pro forma letter dated 5th August 2002, Mr Corkill, Chief Minister, presented a “new initiative” on behalf of the Council of Ministers which he called “Corporate Government and Business Planning”. The new initiative is said to seek to secure greater corporate working and greater use of business planning within government, to be about changing the role of the Council of Ministers, and to be about changing the role of the Chief Officers Group.1 The Chief Officers’ Group is described in sub- section 7 (xxi) above.
