Social security net available to people at different stages
The benefits system on the Isle of Man 'doesn't encourage idleness'.
That's the view of one MHK who is a member of the Treasury with responsibility for the Social Security Division.
Appearing on this afternoon's Mannin Line programme (Thursday), Sarah Maltby was asked if the current system encourages people not to work.
In response, Mrs Maltby says the social security net can be made available to people at different stages in their life:
Living wage increases to £13.05
King Scallop season moves into final week
No current plans for replacing TT footbridge from Noble's Park
New accident 'hotspot' signs for TT as police aim for 'fatal free' fortnight
Off-Island travel disruption amid poor weather
Funeral service for former Clerk to Legislative Council
