A hearing will take place next week to discuss the decisions behind the island’s third lockdown.

On Monday at 10am, the Tynwald social affairs policy review committee will hear from government ministers, head of government departments and Public Health.

Speaking before the committee will be Education Minister Dr Alex Allinson MHK, Health Minister David Ashford MHK, chief secretary of the civil service Will Greenhow, chief executive officer of the Department for Education, Sport and Culture Graham Kinrade, interim chief executive officer of DESC Kathryn Magson, and director of Public Health Dr Henrietta Ewart.

A decision is yet to be made whether the committee will sit physically in the Legislative Council chamber, or remotely online.

Members of the public can hear the evidence via the "live and listen again" audio webcast service on the Tynwald website.
