Pauline Johns-Garrett is standing to become a commissioner 

The Liberal Vannin candidate standing to be a Ramsey Commissioner says she wants to see more social housing built in the town. 

Pauline Johns-Garrett is hoping to fill the vacant seat on Thursday and says she's not in favour of it becoming a 'concrete jungle' and wants to preserve green fields. 

Residents can vote at Ramsey Town Hall from 8am until 8pm, on Thursday 7 March.

Mrs Johns-Garrett also says she would be in favour of an all-Island rate system. 

Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to her:

The other candidates standing in the by-election are Joe Callister, Sandra Cottam-Shea and Sara Kennedy-Hay.
