Every five years the Isle of Man chooses a Chief Minister (CM). Well that is not quite correct, because it's the 24 newly elected MHKs that elect the Chief Minister.

To aid understanding of Tynwald voting procedures PAG has updated its acclaimed 'Block Vote' diagram.
To be successful, the proposer of a motion, must get a majority of votes in both Keys and Council - generally
13 and 5 votes respectively.
In the Keys, bolstered by collective responsibility a Minister can be guaranteed 9 votes plus the votes of his/her
departmental members e.g The DfE Minister has 12 votes in the bag before any vote is taken!
We are pleased to say that, compared with our previous Block Vote from 2012, the current version shows that this voting system
is marginally less predictable. There are fewer MLCs who have a departmental role.

 Change is in the air following extreme uncertainty in recent months.
After the General Election in September IoM will have new politicians in post, a different Chief Minister and government.
There will be a new Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General. A new Clerk of Tynwald will be in place.
PAG has assessed the considerable challenges that the new administration will have to face and we address them here in this discussion paper.
(see Disclosure at end of the paper)
