MHK calls for more bite
South Douglas MHK Kate Beecroft says the Island needs stronger regulators with real powers.
Yesterday on Manx Radio’s Present Politics programme, she said in areas like health and energy prices there’s no way to force improvement despite already having regulatory bodies.
She likened the situation to Tynwald’s Public Accounts Committee, which can hold investigations into matters of concern.
Mrs Beecroft said even the PAC was essentially toothless:
Ongoing incident at Ronaldsway airport
But it remains unclear what's happening
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
Follows private talks in what's described as a 'call to arms' meeting
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Chief Minister says facts are urgently needed
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Families encouraged to apply for Elizabeth Emblem
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
Planning Committee due to make decision next week
IoM 'must use voice on international stage'
MHK says public's views must be represented
