Onchan MHK Julie Edge has declared her intention to stand in this year's General Election.
Ms Edge was first elected in September 2016 and will be looking to keep her seat.
"I have delivered significantly on my 2016 election pledges to the people of Onchan and worked diligently in my Departmental and Committee roles, at all times ensuring transparency, accountability, and fully considering important issues, both nationally and locally."
"With many more challenges ahead of us, not least the challenges in our health services in our changing world, I will strive for improved health services, reformed taxation policies, improving children and family services and extra care services for our most vulnerable. I also want to see climate change addressed reasonably, and that, as an Island, we provide decent housing for all from birth, with resilient and capable infrastructure to serve our people."
The Island will go to the polls on Thursday 23rd September.
