Calculating "one month"
In the Isle of Man, the term 'month' means a calendar month.
What is a calendar month?
A calendar month starts on the day after the organisation receives a request to exercise any right, even if that day is a weekend or public holiday. It ends on the corresponding calendar date of the next month.
