Government says it won't take a one size fits all approach
Government is "moving in the right direction with means testing" - that from the Liberal Vannin Party.
LibVan has positively responded to the public consultation; saying it identifies potentially reasonable, consistent, and cost-effective ways of introducing it here.
Member, Ramsey MHK, Lawrie Hooper, says the party is largely in agreement with the document in principle - with minor suggestions for improvement.
The Cabinet Office wants Treasury to be given responsibility for testing, which it insists won't take a 'one size fits all' approach.
Mr Hooper says it appears to be taking a common sense route to a fairer system:
