MHK wants 'urgent steps' to prevent closure of Family Library

Joney Faragher to bring motion to June's Tynwald sitting

An MHK wants 'urgent steps' to be taken to prevent the closure of the Family Library.

The charity is facing closure at the end of July, with its directors saying the facility is no longer financially viable.

Government says it is unable to offer additional financial support.  

But Douglas East MHK Joney Faragher will bring a motion to Tynwald later this month calling on the Council of Ministers to step in:

June's Tynwald session gets underway on Tuesday the 17th.
