MHKs to raise questions over government jobs

Mon, 07 Feb 2011

Questions over public sector jobs will be raised in the House of Keys tomorrow.

North Douglas MHK Bill Henderson will ask the Chief Minister what his policy is on redundancies.

The question comes after it was revealed up to 22 posts could go in the Department of Community, Culture and Leisure's public transport sector. There are also jobs at risk in the Department of Home Affairs.

Mr Henderson will also ask about the Director of Public Transport's employment status, and whether he has any external business interests.

Onchan MHK Peter Karran will enquire about the salary of the newly appointed Chief Executive of the Department of Education and Children - Stuart Dobson
