MHK says she can now attack policy work with 'full thrust'
The MHK who has stepped down as chair of the Planning Committee says her decision will enable her to attack economic policy scrutiny with 'full thrust'.
Claire Christian has been replaced by David Ashford who resigned as treasury minister earlier this year.
She’s also stepped down from her role as political member with responsibility for the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture.
The Douglas South MHK says her workload, and position on a number of committees, had a part to play in her decision:
Chief minister to give fuel rise and bus strike updates in House of Keys
Visitors give tourism levy idea the thumbs down
Final reading for bill aiming to "modernise, streamline and strengthen the Island’s Criminal Justice System"
Fuel retailer says there's no need to stockpile diesel
Diesel price increases 'could put some taxi drivers out of business'
