Emergency hospitality question to Chief Minister tomorrow

An MHK says he's been given permission to ask an emergency question in the House of Keys tomorrow about the Island's hospitality industry.

Arbory, Malew and Castletown member Jason Moorhouse says he wants to ask Chief Minister Alf Cannan to make a statement.

It follows a meeting of the Licensed Victuallers' Association last week - followed by a press release calling for income tax and VAT changes to support the trade.

Mr Moorhouse accused the government of exploiting the minimum wage and over-taxing those who earn it.
