MHK seeks clarification from Treasury Minister
A Ramsey MHK says, for those who are contractually obliged to retire at 65, there's a potential year-long waiting period before they can claim state retirement pension.
Lawrie Hooper will ask the Treasury Minister a question on the matter in the House of Keys tomorrow.
He explained the problem to Manx Radio:
