Matter to be raised in Tynwald
The Isle of Man needs to learn from the mistakes of the UK's social services, according to the Speaker of the House of Keys.
Steve Rodan MHK is part of a social affairs parliamentary scrutiny committee presenting its first report to be debated in Tynwald on Tuesday.
The report - 'Over-Referral and Under-Preparedness' - makes eight recommendations regarding the improvement of child protection on the Island.
Mr Rodan says the number of reported cases of child abuse here is very similar to the UK:

More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
