Today (16 June) our Island's politicians will gather for the penultimate sitting of Tynwald before this year's General Election.

Amongst the topics set to be discussed at the June sitting of the court is that of homelessness.

It follows a consultation designed to help develop legislation to prevent and address the problem on the Isle of Man.

It's hoped a draft bill can be brought to the Island's parliament by March 2027.

Siobhán Fletcher has been speaking to MLC Kirstie Morphet and Cabinet Office Minister David Ashford.
