MHK says there's a lack of support
Government's been accused of not doing enough to ensure children in care get a fair education.
North Douglas MHK David Ashford pressed both the education and health and social care ministers on what they were doing to tackle the issue.
Around a dozen children who are looked after by the state are currently thought to be regularly play truant.
Mr Ashford says it represents a failing of the system:
Steps being taken to introduce ANPR cameras at Island's ports
Police to gain access to UK database next month
MHK calls on government to take action to secure better air connectivity
