Peel marina dredging surfaces in Tynwald

Contaminated silt from Peel harbour was on the agenda again when Tynwald sat yesterday.

After a row over the dumping of dredged material at Poortown last week, Onchan MHK David Quirk quizzed Infrastructure Minister Phil Gawne over the affair.

In total, yesterday's sitting saw 17 questions for oral answer and another 32 for written reply.

Items for members to discuss included new charges at the Sulby Claddagh campsite, and statements from Social Policy and Children's Committee chair Juan Watterson and Road Transport Licensing Committee chairman Tim Crookall.

In questions, LibVan MHKs Kate Beecroft and Peter Karran had queries about pensions, child benefit, and healthcare - with Mr Karran asking whether companies that need work permits for staff should be forced to pay a living wage.

North Douglas MHK John Houghton asked about foster carers, and whether there were problems providing enough support for fostered children.

And in the last item debated, West Douglas MHK Chris Thomas asked the government to publish a report into the ageing population and formulate a strategy to deal with its findings.
