Keys revisits public sector pensions

Overall, 34 questions put to members

Public Sector Pensions, Ramsey Cottage Hospital, plans for the Homefield site and gas prices will all be raised in questions in the Keys today (Tues 13th).

There's a total of 28 questions for oral answer plus a further six for written answer.

Eight of the questions come from Douglas North member David Ashford, with a further six from Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper.

Mr Hooper gets things underway with a question about reviewing the powers of the Communication Commission. He's also asking whether Homefield is still surplus to requirements and extending the 10% tax band to include utilities companies.

Mr Ashford has questions on the Half Tide Dock, road markings and the recent closure of the lane in front of the airport, following the recent terrorist atrocities.

East Douglas MHK Claire Bettison has three questions tabled on emergency payment to the family and mobile library, cinematograph licences and benefit claimant's income.

In a broad mix of topics other issues to be raised include Local Authority Regional Management Housing Boards, the overturning of planning decisions and the Island's population.
