Question to CM on wider implications
An MHK says she's concerned about the impact potential strike action from the Island's teachers could have on the Manx economy.
Amidst the ongoing pay dispute between unions and the education department, Daphne Caine asked the Chief Minister about the wider implications of industrial action in yesterday's sitting of the House of Keys.
Howard Quayle did announce an independent review into issues around the ongoing dispute but it will not examine pay.
Mrs Caine did acknowledge unions are looking to avoid disrupting children's education wherever possible, but she's worried about the consequences if the situation escalates:
Rider died after crashing into garden wall
Cannan: 'I will be proposing referendum on assisted dying'
Health Minister refused to be drawn into legalities of Roundhouse access issues
Man given suspended sentence for stealing £660 worth of Nike clothing
Police appeal for information after fire extinguisher incident
MHK brands public sector overpayments "breathtakingly incompetent"
