Health Minister Kate Beecroft MHK

Meals on Wheels, road and pavement maintenance and a Manx representative in London will all be discussed in this morning's sitting of the House of Keys.

Health Minister Kate Beecroft face questions following her Department's decision to end its subsidy for Meals on Wheels.

The Minister will be asked what her policy is on meals on wheels, how it supports the Government's strategy to ensure people remain in their own homes for longer, and whether her Department plans to appoint a new provider.

Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer will be asked for an update on plans to tackle the backlog in road and pavement maintenance on the Island, while Chief Minister Howard Quayle will discuss plans for permanent representation in London.

The House sits from 10am.
