MLC Lowey to face driving charges

Long serving Tynwald Member, Eddie Lowey, MLC, is to face charges, in October this year, of driving without due care and attention. The charges, which Mr Lowey denies, follow an accident, involving another motorist who had stopped on the New Castletown Road near Richmond Hill, in November last year.

Local businessman, Chris Walmsley, who suffered serious injuries in the incident, remains in hospital and has been transferred to a specialist unit in England for treatment.
