The Manx Labour Party says it's opposed to the government's means testing plans.
In a statement, the party says it's not a fair way of allocating social security and other benefits.
It also says social security is crucial and helps those most in need in Manx society.
Richard Halsall says means testing targets those least available to defend themselves:
LegCo to face questions in this morning's sitting
Passport prices to rise
House of Keys to sit for final time before election
Island cyclist to ride in Tour De France
Police appeal over promenade street brawl
Well-known farm in the west up for sale
Pet foodbank needs your help!
