Government board members may be up for pay rise

The government's statutory board members could be in line for a three per cent pay rise this year, if Tynwald approves.

When the court sits next month, it'll consider an order for payments to members of bodies such as Manx Utilities, the Post Office and Office of Fair Trading.

In December, the Public Services Commission approved a three per cent increase for the civil service - which also applies to those serving on boards who aren't Tynwald members.

Tynwald is due to sit from Tuesday, February 17.
