MHK to query quality of primary school meals

An MHK wants to know if the quality of school meals at Island primary schools is appropriate.

Garff MHK Daphne Caine will question Health and Social Care Minister, David Ashford MHK, about the matter at the March sitting of Tynwald next week.

Mrs Caine also wants to know how the winter menus meet healthy eating food standards, and what proportion of meals are freshly prepared with Manx produce and which are made from frozen.

The courts next sitting takes place on Tuesday in Douglas at 10.30am.
