Calls for regulation of escort agencies
A question about the local sex industry raised some eyebrows in the nation's parliament this morning.
It's after a new website advertising the services of 'babes' (charging £200 per hour) attracted somewhat feverish press coverage.
The Policy and Reform Minister, Chris Thomas, was asked whether he had any plans to regulate the trade.
But he cast doubt on whether such services were really prevalent, and, if so, what good regulation would actually do.
Mr Thomas then turned the question back on the man who asked it - Speaker Juan Watterson:

Consultation open on plans to formally recognise the heritage of Douglas Head
Drop-in session to support Isle of Man charities
Fundraiser to keep St John Ambulance emergency fleet on the road
Ayre and Michael MHKs request meeting with commissioners over rates
Data breach impact rises sharply as cyber incidents affect thousands on Isle of Man
