HC Deb 09 July 1913 vol 55 c409
65. Mr. TYSON WILSON

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether any decision has yet been come to regarding the recommendations of the Departmental Committee on the constitution of the Isle of Man; and, if so, whether he can state what the decision is?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. McKenna)

The Government have accepted the greater part of the Committee's recommendations, including the proposal to reconstitute the Legislative Council partly on an elective basis. Their decision has been communicated to the Lieutenant-Governor, who has been requested to have the various reforms—except so far as they can be put into operation by executive action on his part—embodied in a Bill or Bills and submitted to the Manx Legislature at an early date.
