- Keys enact first statute post-Revestment; concerns over spirituous liquor licensing
- Description
- Charles Lutwidge reports to the Treasury Lords that the Keys of the Isle of Man have enacted statutes at Castletown, including one on licensing spirituous liquors, which may affect royal revenue. Written in September 1774, this is the first legislative exercise by the Keys since the 1765 Revestment. Lutwidge notes the absence of an Attorney General and urges that authentic copies be obtained before royal assent is granted.
