MHK asks what help will be on offer over the festive period
Government should show compassion and help those struggling to feed their children over the Christmas school break.
That's from Garff MHK Daphne Caine, who will raise the issue of holiday hunger in this morning's sitting of the House of Keys.
Chief Minister Alfred Cannan will be asked what his government is doing to support those who normally rely on free school meals while schools are closed over the festive period.
Mrs Caine says it's typically a busy period for the Isle of Man Foodbank:
New 'rent-to-buy' option for first-time homeowners on the Isle of Man
Manxman to re-enter dry dock today
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
Time to 'focus on delivering' says MHK tipped to enter chief minister contest
