Paul Craine says IOM has one of the oldest populations in the world
A stark warning about the Isle of Man's growing population imbalance has been issued by a member of the Legislative Council.
Paul Craine says the Island's population structure shows extreme imbalances relating to ageing, net migration of young adults, declining births and a fall in the number of women of child-bearing age.
Mr Craine has published a detailed paper on the topic on his personal Isle of Man Population website and says the matter needs to be addressed:
Pregnant women still have no access to 'Parentcraft' sessions
Referrals for Infant Feeding Team now via 'mechanism' rather than ward visits
Chief minister welcomes 'constructive' talks with UK security minister
Onchan MHK calls for 'traffic management review' amid 20mph rollout
