Edge maintains face coverings are ‘personal choice’
An MHK is calling on the education minister to reveal what percentage of children are wearing masks in Island schools.
Arbory, Castletown and Malew’s Jason Moorhouse will quiz Julie Edge in Tynwald this week/today.
She’ll also be asked to give details of her discussions with the director of public health since December.
Ms Edge told Manx Radio the wearing of face coverings remains a personal choice:
