Views wanted on Grandparents' rights

A Tynwald committee is asking for public views on the issue of grandparent's rights.

The Social Affairs Policy Review Committee is inviting written submissions from anyone who wants to comment.

The panel says any views given will help its understanding of the matter and comes after a petition on the topic was submitted to the court last year.

Anyone wanting to put forward opinions are asked to send them by e-mail or hard copy to the Clerk of the Committee at Legislative Buildings in Douglas before the deadline on Wednesday, February 5.
