Tynwald asked to support 15 recommendations
The Manx Government has probably ‘failed’ families because of an ‘anti-family sentiment’ through previous administrations.
That’s the view of the chair of the Population Rebalancing Committee.
The committee will ask Tynwald to support 15 recommendations designed to tackle demographic imbalances including an ‘urgent and substantial uprating’ of Maternity Allowance.
Dr Michelle Haywood says she thinks there is an explanation for why it hasn’t been a priority:
Motorists urged to find alternative route home following crash
Car tax demand at vehicle testing centre 'causing a few problems'
Reinstating horse tram tracks will cost almost £2 million
Businesses under threat from Steam Packet freight surcharge says Chamber
Section of Douglas Promenade reopens following RTC
