Treasury Minister confirms it won't be paid back
More than £90 million was taken out of the Isle of Man’s National Insurance Fund during the Covid-19 pandemic.
In the House of Keys this week the treasury minister confirmed there are no plans to replace this money.
It was used to support two initiatives - the Manx Earnings Replacement Allowance and the Salary Support Scheme – which helped those who found themselves out of work.
Douglas Central MHK Chris Thomas queried whether this had led to other problems:
Some trailers got 'lost' during recent backlog of freight at Heysham
Police told to reassess FOI response
Census support available from next week
Mobile classroom needed to 'alleviate' pressure at Henry Bloom Primary School
