Cannell raises questions over pension gender gap

Fri, 06 May 2011

An MHK is to ask the Chief Minister about the gender gap in public sector retirement and pension pay.

 

Douglas East Member Brenda Cannell will also ask Tony Brown what he's going to do about it.

 

Earlier this year, a written answer from the House of Keys revealed the average pension for a retired female Whitley Council employee is less than half that of a male.

 

Mr Brown will answer the question on next week's sitting of Keys
