First full sitting of Tynwald since General Election

Tue, 18 Oct 2011

A new generation of Manx politics begins this morning, as the first sitting of Tynwald with new Chief Minister Allan Bell gets underway.

Mr Bell was elected by Tynwald last Tuesday.

It'll be the first time the new House of Keys members will experience question time.

Douglas South MHK Kate Beecroft has her first question on the order paper.

She'll ask about waiting times at Noble's Hospital.

Elsewhere on the order paper, several departments will ask for extra money for capital schemes.

Tynwald sits from 10.30
