Edge calling for time to be extended
Curtailing question time in the House of Keys is undemocratic.
That’s the view of an Onchan MHK who's calling for the time allocated for questions to be extended.
One hour is scheduled for discussion of issues tabled by politicians with a vote each sitting to determine continuing it for longer.
However the Council of Ministers has been accused of using its block vote to stop that happening.
Julie Edge claims it means important issues are being missed:
Fundraiser for TT rider Maria Costello surpasses £220k
Motorsport legend is currently paralysed after breaking her back
Warmer than average May for Island
239 hours of sunshine recorded in the month
Manx BirdLife awarded funding for new warden
Over £28,000 provided by Dormant Asset Fund
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Expanded eligibility and increased funding for support schemes
