Outgoing MHK Richard Ronan says he's standing down because he doesn't see himself as a 'career politician'.
The Castletown representative, who's also the Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister, announced yesterday that he won't be seeking re-election at September's General Election:
It follows 12 years in politics - seven as a commissioner and five as part of the current government administration.
Mr Ronan says he's ready to hand over responsibility for the town - which will make up part of the Arbory, Castletown and Malew constituency - to a new face so he can progress other avenues:
