Hundreds of queries in past year to Minister
Hold us to account – but ease up on the questions!
That’s the plea from the Treasury Minister to backbenchers.
Eddie Teare says over the past year members have tabled 262 political questions to him, nearly 200 of them have come from just three MHKs.
Mr Teare says questions are a valued part of the democratic process but often a personal approach can save a lot of time and lead to a quicker answer:
Rider died after crashing into garden wall
Ian Bainbridge, 69, had raced in the Manx Grand Prix since 2005
Cannan: 'I will be proposing referendum on assisted dying'
House of Keys currently considering clauses of bill
Health Minister refused to be drawn into legalities of Roundhouse access issues
Lawrie Hooper said a meeting with Braddan Commissioners went well

MHK brands public sector overpayments "breathtakingly incompetent"
Mr Wannenburgh said the errors were 'at best negligence, at worst a dereliction of duty'
