The House of Keys this week became the first of Tynwald’s three chambers to broadcast its regular sittings as live video online, Manx Radio reported on Saturday 14 November.
The broadcaster said the other two chambers will follow this month. Video coverage of Tynwald, where the Keys and the Legislative Council sit together, is due to begin on 17 November. The Legislative Council, the upper chamber, is due to follow on 24 November.
The President of Tynwald, MLC Juan Watterson, told Manx Radio the change was “a significant step in making the work of the Island’s parliament more accessible to the public”.
He said the public could now follow debates as they happen on screen, adding pictures to the live audio feed that was already available.
According to Manx Radio, public hearings of Tynwald committees have been shown on live video since 2024.
Manx Wire has not seen the original statement from the President.
