Move could help combat obesity
Should the Isle of Man introduce a sugar tax as a way of trying to combat health issues such as obesity and diabetes?
Rushen MHK Juan Watterson wants to find out if there's the stomach for such a levy among Tynwald members.
At the December sitting, which starts today, Mr Watterson will ask them to support the principle of a sugar tax and for government to publish proposals next year.
He says it's not about going any further than that yet:
More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
New weather warning covers next two high tides
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Issue affecting main runway now fixed
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
But the MER will be operating as normal tomorrow
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
Question marks over beloved establishment's future
