Barber says it doesn't need to 'reinvent' wheel
Stronger sentences are needed for people on the Isle of Man who are guilty of mistreating animals.

Earlier this year a draft bill - designed to overhaul existing legislation - was thrown out of the House of Keys after complaints that it wasn't fit for purpose.
Clare Barber says the new administration must now take action – and quickly:
Health Minister says work is 'underway' on access road to The Roundhouse
Higher taxi tariff now in force from 11pm
Private members bill regarding Bishop’s vote makes progress
Braddan Commissioner 'refutes' allegations of misrepresenting Roundhouse access issues
Disqualification for driver who was three times the drug limit
