The first sitting of Tynwald of the new legislative year gets under way this morning, and it looks like being a busy day for politicians.
There are 27 questions for oral answer, and another 19 for written reply.
But the day’s proceedings look set to be dominated by Chief Minister Tony Brown, who will give a statement about the VAT agreement with the United Kingdom.
The questions, which are expected to follow the statement, are dominated by four MHKs.
Michael MHK David Cannan has five to be aired in the court, covering the economy, NHS recruitment, the Conservative Party conference and the reciprocal health agreement.
North Douglas MHK John Houghton has seven questions, ranging from the Steam Packet, to care for the elderly, dentists, and the state of the Manx Grand Prix paddock.
Meanwhile, his fellow North Douglas member Bill Henderson has six items, covering regeneration, pensioners' bus fares, and itinerant traders.
And Liberal Vannin party leader Peter Karran has six questions, on topics such as a bail hostel, the Department of Tourism's rebranding and civil service pay rises.
