15-25 year olds hoping to find ways to tackle housing crisis
Addressing the Island's housing crisis should be a higher priority for the government, according to young people here.
A Youth Select Committee's been formed with members aged between 15 and 25 to discuss ideas of tackling the problem.
It's part of a Tynwald scheme giving them a chance to scrutinise topics that interest them.
Riona Zaman is 16-years-old and says tackling the issue could help with other common problems on the Island:
