This time it will be different.

That promise about the future of services for children and young people in the Isle of Man from Chris Robertshaw MHK.

As the head of the Council of Minister's Social Policy and Children's Committee, Mr Robertshaw bought forward a report by the Care of Inspectorate for Scotland to Tynwald today. [Tues]

There was a lengthy and passionate debate about the report's findings, namely that areas of care were either found to be weak or adequate at best.
