NEWS: Question for CM on food bank reliance
The first two questions in Keys today raise the plight of older people and those suffering hardship.
Both will be asked by new MHK for Onchan Rob Callister.
He will ask the chief minister how government plans to remove dependence on food hand-outs - after the Island's food bank charity said rising numbers were asking for its help.
Mr Callister will also suggest a member of government is given overall responsibility for the Island's older generation.
He says helping those with least in society is at the top of his political agenda:
More than 3,000 jobs added to economy since September 2021
Review of income thresholds for public sector housing
Firearms officers deployed to incident near Laxey
A step into the modern era for social security
Attempted burglary in Ramsey sparks appeal
Two Manx high schools told to stop operating CCTV 'inside' toilets
