Southern members monopolise HoK questions

Moorhouse and Glover table seven queries

The two MHKs for Arbory, Castletown and Malew will dominate the House of Keys question paper today.

But there is a marked difference in the approach of Jason Moorhouse and Tim Glover.

Mr Glover's questions are all constituency-centric; when will we see plans for a new Castle Rushen High School? Plans for development at the former Castletown Golf Links Hotel? And who can apply to demolish the building?

And why do Manx Care's plans for local coordinators in the south not include Arbory?

Mr Moorhouse's questions, meanwhile, are Island-wide.

What support will Manx Gas customers get before the new year? And any consulting planned on increasing access to first time buyer housing?

Incidentally, discussions are still going on as to what responsibility departmental members will be given.

Today's House of Keys sitting gets underway at 10am. You can listen live on Manx Radio AM 1368 or via the AM player online and on smartphone apps.
