Education questions in Tynwald

by isleofman.com 15th April 2012

Education and libraries will once again be in the spotlight in Tynwald questions next week.

Nine of the 23 questions for oral answer are on those two subjects, the majority of them being for Education Minister Peter Karran.

Four of them come from Dudley Butt MLC, who resigned from his position within the Department of Education and Children over the proposed changes to pre-school provision.

There are questions on the cost to the taxpayer of the Kirk Michael land swap public inquiry and whether candidates in local authority elections should have to declare their private and business interests.

There's also a query about the closure of the Glenside residential home.

And there's a pair of questions on buses; the cost of new ones and whether any money was made from old ones shipped to the UK.

You can hear Tynwald live on Manx Radio's AM1368 frequency, and on the 'Listen AM' option on manxradio.com, from 10.30am on Tuesday.
