Education Bill to be discussed by Keys in committee

Witnesses will give evidence in House of Keys

A report into the Education Bill will be examined in committee by the whole House of Keys.

Witnesses can come to the bar of the House to add their evidence to the debate.

The suggestion, in a motion from Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse, the chairman of the group looking into the detail of the bill, was only opposed by one member, Daphne Caine, who spoke strongly against the idea.

The bill has previously drawn criticism from teachers and home educators.
