New election rules to be discussed by Tynwald

New rules for holding House of Keys elections are due to be discussed by Tynwald later this month.

When the court sits next Tuesday, Policy and Reform Minister John Shimmin will ask it to approve new regulations under the Representation of People Act.

Changes include longer windows for returning nomination forms and new certifying officers who'll help returning officers by dealing with advance votes.

Also up for debate is increased use of school buildings as polling stations - in the past they've only been used as a last resort.
