Hooper queries why government investment is needed
The enterprise minister has questioned why government funding is needed for a new Airport Technology Gateway.
In the House of Keys yesterday it was claimed that the concept, in the south of the Island, is generating economic benefit even before work on it gets underway.
Southern MHKs have been pressing government for a start to be made on the scheme which was first suggested in 2016.
But Lawrie Hooper is querying whether it’s necessary:
'Too early to tell' what caused fire
Crews from across the Island ensured cover was available
Firefighting foam may have killed fish in Silverburn River
People advised not to enter the water for 28 days
Additional road closure for TT filming ahead of MGP qualifying
Sunday morning closure along Quarterbridge and Peel Road
'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
