Vehicle road-worthiness at heart of three HoK questions
An MHK wants to know what's being done to ensure vehicles are fit for the Island's roads.
Douglas North member Ralph Peake will ask three questions on roadworthiness at this week's sitting of the House of Keys.
His queries have been prompted by the IOM Constabulary's winter police checks campaign, which on its opening night found defects with more than half of vehicles stopped.
Mr Peake says introducing periodic MOT testing could help people become more conscious of vehicle maintenance:
TT merchandise provider makes upfront payment for contract
Business will suffer 'significant' loss during the TT
Edge: Govt did 'a major U-turn' over Southern Swimming Pool
Tynwald condemns Middle East attacks
