A private member’s bill to remove the bishop’s vote from Tynwald has been adjourned.
The Constitution Bill 2023 passed its second reading in December but was adjourned for a public consultation to take place.
Findings showed 51% favoured removing the vote.
Members backed an amendment by Clare Barber MHK to adjourn until the next sitting of House of Keys in April to allow members to “reflect” on the consultation’s findings.
