Questions in Keys on Manx2.com

by isleofman.com 22nd March 2011

The impact of the United Kingdom's fuel rebate scheme and how it will affect the Isle of Man's share of the VAT pool is being raised in the House of Keys today (Tuesday).

Rushen MHK Juan Watterson wants to know whether Treasury Minister Anne Craine has contacted Her Majesty's Treasury to discuss the scheme and whether the Island can take part in it.

Minister for Community, Culture and Leisure David Cretney will be asked to make a statement on the current dispute between his department and the Tramway Preservation Society, and Onchan member Peter Karran has two detailed questions about Manx2.com.

There are eleven questions for oral answer and 15 for written reply.

In a multiple-part question Mr Karran wants to know which parts of Manx2.com are Manx and which parts are under the jurisdiction of the Isle of Man authorities. He has another question regarding technical rules on aircraft instrumentation.

Other subjects being raised in questions include the Western Civic Amenity site, the appointment of a dedicated breast care surgeon and a review of the affordability of the current unified public sector pension scheme.

Meanwhile, three bills are down for second reading, including the Criminal Justice Amendment Bill.

Question time in the House of Keys is broadcast live on Manx Radio's AM 1368 service from 10am.

The Legislative Council is sitting at 10.30am today and will consider the Broadway Baptist Church Bill, the Road Races Amendment Bill and Building Control Amendment Bill.
