Election candidates urged to feed back

Election candidates are being urged to share their experience of the island's political system.

They'll be asked about how they first became interested in politics, what encouragement they received, and what support they would have liked to have had.

The questions have been created by the Commonwealth Women Parliamentarians of the British Islands and Mediterranean Region of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association.

Answers are sought from both men and women, however responses from women will form part of a wider survey on women's participation in politics in a number of jurisdictions. 

The questionnaire can be downloaded from the Tynwald website.
