A select committee has been established to look into the care and upbringing of children, especially those in cases of broken marriages and other relationships.
First raised following a petition for redress - the issue was presented at this year’s Tynwald Day by a Mr Phillip James Walmsley - who was seeking a review of the law.
Members elected to the committee are Kate Beecroft MHK, Phil Gawne MHK and its elected chairman, Juan Turner MLC.
Rushen MHK Phil Gawne thinks it’s high time this issue was looked at in greater depth:
