Tynwald to sit for first time since July

Manx Gas, Covid-19, education & more on agenda

Tynwald is due to sit this morning for the first time since July.

There are 31 questions for oral answer, and 35 for written answer.

We'll hear the latest on negotiations with Manx Gas, after the energy company claimed a new deal had been struck with government.

Julie Edge has an emergency question on capacity in UK hospitals for Manx residents - especially for intensive care in light of recent Covid-19 pressures on the UK NHS.

Daphne Caine thinks anyone who wants to be the next chief minister should say so before next year's general election.

Members will also discuss the establishment of an Independent Post Office Panel - usually a topic that sparks lively debate.

Chief Minister Howard Quayle will give his annual 'State of the Nation' address, looking back on an extraordinary year on the Isle of Man.

The sitting starts at 10:30, and you can listen on Manx Radio's AM1368 frequency, online and on smartphone apps.
