Social security net available to people at different stages
The benefits system on the Isle of Man 'doesn't encourage idleness'.
That's the view of one MHK who is a member of the Treasury with responsibility for the Social Security Division.
Appearing on this afternoon's Mannin Line programme (Thursday), Sarah Maltby was asked if the current system encourages people not to work.
In response, Mrs Maltby says the social security net can be made available to people at different stages in their life:
Farmer says he's losing one metre of land a year to coastal erosion
'Preservation expert' to deliver talk on saving historical buildings
Castletown Commissioners urge Tynwald to reject sale of former police station
MHK's bid to restrict key Tynwald roles
