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:
Government issues clarification on proposed changes to public housing policy
DHSC 'considering policy options' as Hyperbaric Chamber calls for more funding
'Really special', says charity as historic furniture returns to Island
Government 'supporting' Strix after announcement of Ramsey factory closure
Minister acknowledges challenges facing hospitality industry
