Govt membership 'should not be rewarded'
An MHK wants to see an end to what he calls the 'financial incentive' to being part of government.
Ramsey representative Lawrie Hooper is moving that Tynwald refers a review of members' pay to a parliamentary committee.
MHKs currently receive more money for being a member of a government department, but receive no bonuses for being part of scrutiny committees.
Mr Hooper is keen for there to be no discouragement from being a backbencher:
