MHK tables urgent question on rent payments at PO counters

Moorhouse wants to know more about DoI decision

An MHK is calling for information about the number of people affected by a decision to stop letting some social housing tenants pay their rent at a post office.

Jason Moorhouse, who represents Arbory, Castletown and Malew, has been given permission to ask an urgent question at next week's sitting of Tynwald.

He will quiz the infrastructure minister about the decision to withdraw DoI tenants' ability to pay at a counter from 1 April.

Mr Moorhouse also wants to know what arrangements will be in place for tenants who do not have a bank account.

Tynwald will sit on 15 February from 10.30am.
