Petitioner says government broke a promise eight years ago
Campaigners have petitioned Tynwald asking it to force the government to up its international aid contributions.
On Tynwald Hill yesterday, Louise Whitelegg presented a petition for redress of grievance over the amount of money government donates each year.
She says a promise made eight years ago about Manx contributions has been broken and she’d like the court to force ministers to reconsider the issue.
Louise says her petition is very straightforward:
Two large retailers 'express interest' in Next store in Douglas
Liverpool ferry terminal changed how DoI resources projects
Police appeal after dog injures multiple sheep
Agriculture Census will help 'deepen understanding' of sector
