Three residents appointed to Patrick Commissioners by the Cabinet Office 

The only elected commissioner at the meeting was Henry Bridson.

The meeting was started with words of warning from the clerk, Ian Maule, who said the 'meeting is being held in public, it is not a public meeting', and that anyone who is being disruptive would be asked to leave. 

This was due to alleged distracting behaviour of shouting, during last month's sitting. 

A decision on what to do about Glen Rushen Road - the highway at the centre of Angela Main-Thompsons' report, was debated intensely. 

There were calls for the report to be challenged by a petition of doleance, after Margaret Killey said it was based on 'hearsay' that Commissioner X had carried out work for his and his neighbouring farmer's benefit. 

There was also a back and forth between Henry Bridson and Mr Maule, about how much money was planned to be spent and whether the work carried out by the contractor was 'authorised' by the local authority. 

It was revealed that there were no 'formal' contracts in place and work individuals offered to find contractors for, wasn't run through the clerk.

Ms Killey cited other times when this had happened and said a 'precedent' had been set and called it a 'diabolical' way of working as a local authority. 

The remedial work which is due to be carried out on Glen Rushen Road was quoted at £41,000, potentially having to be paid through the rates. 

A resolution was made to meet with the Department of Infrastructure to see what could be done about the road.
