More questions on KSF (IOM)

by isleofman.com 28th October 2008
There will be more political debate about the Kaupthing Singer and Friedlander (Isle of Man) affair in the House of Keys this morning.

MHKs have tabled a series of questions about the collapsed bank, and the Island's recently enhanced depositors' compensation scheme.

Michael MHK David Cannan will ask Treasury Minister Allan Bell who now owns the Isle of Man Bank Limited, after the United Kingdom government effectively nationalised its parent company, the Royal Bank of Scotland.

And Rushen MHK Juan Watterson will ask Chief Minister Tony Brown for an update on the Kaupthing situation.

Also on the question paper are two queries to the chairman of the Office of Fair Trading - Bill Henderson, MHK - about high fuel prices.

Meanwhile, DHSS Minister Eddie Teare faces questions about negligence claims against the hospital, and the separation of NHS and private work there.

Among the bills up for their first reading are amendments to VAT, Animal Health and Social Security legislation.

And the Companies Amendment Bill and Gender Recognition Bill are down for their second readings during the sitting.

Manx Radio will provide full live coverage of Keys questions from 10.00am, on AM1368.
