Service to be privatised
The decision to privatise the baggage handling service at Ronaldsway airport has been described by the Infrastructure Minister as sad but inevitable.
Ray Harmer claims around £1million will be saved as a direct result of the move.
More than 20 staff will be redeployed within the department or face redundancy.
Mr Harmer says opportunities will be made available for the workers affected:
Island-based Strix factory to close
Ramsey operations to transfer to China plant
'Massive chef shortage' on the Island
Eateries closing on several days due to lack of staff
