Scrutineer given second government position
Taking on a second departmental role within government won't compromise the scrutiny work of an MLC.
That's from Marlene Maska, who's accepted a position with the Department of Infrastructure.
The move is at odds with a Tynwald debate in late 2017, where it was agreed that members of Legislative Council should not take on more than one role within government.
Mrs Maska says it isn't a decision she's taken lightly:
