Scrutineer given second government position
Taking on a second departmental role within government won't compromise the scrutiny work of an MLC.
That's from Marlene Maska, who's accepted a position with the Department of Infrastructure.
The move is at odds with a Tynwald debate in late 2017, where it was agreed that members of Legislative Council should not take on more than one role within government.
Mrs Maska says it isn't a decision she's taken lightly:
Fundraiser launched for family of Sam Naughton
Motorhome owners served with warning notices
Petition calls for pets to be recognised as beings, not property
Seventh election candidate to stand in Douglas Central
