Policy and reform minister responds after poverty survey
Pensioner poverty is one of the social issues facing the Isle of Man, according to the policy and reform minister.
Chris Thomas says this is one of the realisations of government's Household Income and Expenditure Survey.
It revealed the average Manx household has less than £50 to spare per week.
Mr Thomas spoke to Ed Oldham:
