Treasury minister rules out adopting UK initiative
The treasury minister says he has no plans to introduce a 'breathing space scheme' for people who've fallen into debt.
Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper asked Alfred Cannan whether he's considering rolling out an initiative like the one launched by the UK government.
It helps relieve pressure on individuals dealing with creditors to allow them to get advice and set up debt solutions.
Mr Cannan told Tynwald there is support available:
Fuel supplies to the Island remain 'reliable'
Government urges public not to stockpile

Government joins Sunflower Hidden Disabilities scheme
Sunflower lanyards are now available at various locations
