The House of Keys has 12 questions for oral answer, as well as six bills to debate.

Health Minister David Anderson will face two questions from North Douglas MHK Bill Henderson about the department’s dental and physiotherapy services.

Mr Henderson is also due to answer a question in his role as chairman of the Office of Fair Trade when Rushen MHK Juan Watterson asks him to work alongside his UK equivalent over credit and debit card surcharges.

Among the new laws being discussed are bills involving the Manx Museum, the European Union, road races and debt recovery.
