NEWS: Question for CM on food bank reliance
The first two questions in Keys today raise the plight of older people and those suffering hardship.
Both will be asked by new MHK for Onchan Rob Callister.
He will ask the chief minister how government plans to remove dependence on food hand-outs - after the Island's food bank charity said rising numbers were asking for its help.
Mr Callister will also suggest a member of government is given overall responsibility for the Island's older generation.
He says helping those with least in society is at the top of his political agenda:
Two more weather warnings issued ahead of high tide
Manannan sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Welbeck Hotel owner 'overwhelmed' by response to closure
Douglas Council wants residents from all backgrounds to stand in by-election
