Tynwald votes in favour of lower minimum wage rise

Tynwald's voted to back cutting April's minimum wage rise from 9.9 percent to five percent.

This means the hourly rate will go up to £12.86 per hour, instead of the previously planned £13.46. 

A total of 18 MHKs voted in favour of Chief Minister Alf Cannan's proposals in Tynwald this week, with six against. 

Meanwhile the youth rate will go up to £10.16 instead of £10.76.
