A new UK law which protects tenants against mould would be considered when updating Manx housing legislation, but there are no current plans to do so.
In the House of Keys this week, Glenfaba and Peel MHK Tim Crookall asked Infrastructure Minister Michelle Haywood if Awaab's Law, recently introduced in the UK, would be brought in here.
In response, she said regulations covering damp and mould should apply to both social and private housing.
The minister said changes to the Island's laws are in the process of being considered:
Northern bus services to be raised in Keys
Ben out of service for maintenance work this week
Richmond Hill closed again tonight for work
October warmer and sunnier than usual, says Met Office
MHK queries cost of Liverpool awards trip
DOI says it has 20 empty public sector homes
Marquee plan submitted by Milntown Estate
Fire crews called to free driver from crashed car
