Description

"...The Isle of Man is not part of the United Kingdom and therefore not represented at Westminster. It has its own parliament (Tynwald) of which promulgated acts become law when they have received the consent of the English Crown. English Acts of Parliament do not automatically become law in the Isle of Man. Consequently there are differences between the English and Manx laws relating to births, deaths and marriages, the administration of wills and inheritance and the registration of wills and deeds. Any wills or deeds held by private individuals are copies, the originals all being kept in the Manx Museum or the General Registry. ..."
