On 8 December, Energy FM in the Isle of Man carried an article saying that a report from a Tynwald Committee (Tynwald is the Island’s parliament) has issued a stark warning to the Isle of Man’s legal profession about the way it is run and is regulated. The Constitutional and Legal Affairs and Justice Committee said that the Islands legal system is in ‘urgent need of reform’. It has issued a list of 11 conclusions and recommendations, saying that the system is outdated and not in line with other jurisdictions such as England, Wales and Scotland.

I had omitted the following link (as it did not seem to generate much interest!), but it seemed time to add it again and say that, if you would like to make a (polite) gesture and help me with my removal and computer costs, I have a page at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/KoIvM842y
